Configuring Broadcast Server

b.Media Files

Media files consist of alert tones and images files. (Image files are not supported on all phones.) The system media files provided with Broadcast Server are available to all users.

To make additional media files available to all users, add the files to the media library and change their owner to Administrator (shared). For more information, see “Media Management” on page 35.

c.External Services

External services are network-based applications that can be launched from IP telephones. Users can provide IP phone users access to external services by adding a soft key to a broadcast alert.

To enable Broadcast Server users to include a soft key link to an external service in an alert, you must specify the service URL, as described in “External Service Management” on page 41.

Broadcast Server Maintenance

After initial setup, you will need to change Broadcast Server only when you add a user or add a distribution list, media file, or external service that you want to share. Distribution lists imported from a directory source are private unless you change their owner to Administrator (Shared).
