Administering TCP/IP

Administering TCP/IP

If your system is already connected to the LAN, you can skip this procedure. However, you need to know the IP Address to administer the trusted server, so — even if your system is already networked — perform step 1 of this procedure and write down your system’s IP address.

TCP/IP is a set of protocols that links computers across a wide variety of networks. TCP/IP must be administered for the ELA trusted server to communicate with AUDIX.

Before You Begin

You will need to know the:

Network IP address

Host Identifier (AUDIX server name)

Subnet mask

Gateway Identifier (ID) to administer TCP/IP

Your PC/LAN system administrator should have this information.

! CAUTION:

Administering TCP/IP requires that you stop and restart the voice messaging software. Plan to do this procedure at a time when your business can tolerate some down time on your AUDIX system.

To administer TCP/IP Networking:

1.Starting from the main menu (Figure 3-1on page 3-14), select:

>Networking Administration

>TCP/IP Administration

The system displays the TCP/IP Administration window (Figure 3-6).
