3.5Licensing
Operating the Aastra 800 communications system requires to purchase the nec- essary software license. The Aastra 800 provides basic licenses (see also the chapter entitled Technical Specifications starting on page 127) which cover basic features and are sufficient for many applications. If you need additional or enhanced features, you can purchase additional activation keys and activate them in the Configurator on the System: Licences page.
Note, that the serial number displayed on the System: Licences page is specific for your PC system. Entered activation keys are valid only for this serial number. You need new activation keys, if the serial number changes. Contact your dealer or the Aastra DeTeWe sales department for new activation keys if required.
3.6LAN Integration
In order for VoIP telephony to function in a Local Area Network (LAN), the Aastra 800 communications system must be able to communicate with the VoIP devices hooked up to the LAN. To do so, the Aastra 800 communications system generally uses the network functions of the operating system used.
In an existing LAN, you usually already have the Internet Protocol (IP) for net- working computers in use. The installation and commissioning of the Aastra 800 communications system on a running Windows operating system networked with IP can thus be done quickly and with little complication. This chapter explains the technical details that are important for operating the Aastra 800 communications system.
3.6.1 Configuring a Fixed IP Address
The server computer where the Aastra 800 communications system will be installed and run requires a LAN connection with the IP protocol. The fixed IP address of the LAN connection must be set manually. The IP address you have to use for the Aastra 800 communications system should be coordinated with the network administrator in charge.
