Meridian Mail software requirements

A Meridian Mail system can be connected to the IPE Module or Application Module to provide voice-processing capability to an application based on Meridian Link. The link between the IPE Module or Application Module and the Meridian Mail system is called the Meridian Mail Link (MML).

The Meridian Mail system must be equipped with Release 8 (or later) software with the Access Enable option, and Meridian 1 must be equipped with X11 Release 19 (or later) software.

Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OA&M)

The IPE Module and the Application Module also provide a basic Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OA&M) command interface, which allows you to perform functions such as the following:

¥access and configure applications (start or stop applications, configure the application to start automatically and enter the application interface)

¥power down the system safely

¥schedule and perform system backup and restore operations

¥run diagnostics

¥change user passwords

¥run traces on links

¥access the Meridian 1 console, if console-sharing capability is configured

¥look at system information (system version, system logs)
