Voicemail Pro:
1. Voicemail Pro
The diagram illustrates a Voicemail Pro system with some of the setup options. Full details on the installation options available are covered in the Installing Voicemail Pro section.
18
· IP Office Control Unit
The IP Office Voicemail Pro licenses are entered into the configuration of the IP Office system. The licenses are required to activate Voicemail Pro features. An unlicensed Voicemail Pro service will run for two hours to allow demonstration and testing. Licence keys are issued against and validated against the unique serial number of the feature key dongle used by the the IP Office. For USB and parallel port feature key dongles, the dongle must be installed on a PC running the IP Office Feature Key Server application.
· Voicemail Pro Server
The Voicemail Pro Service is installed on the Voicemail Pro server PC. This becomes the PC where messages and other data are stored for the mailboxes and services provided by Voicemail Pro.
· Voicemail Pro Client
The Voicemail Pro Client is used to manage and configure the Voicemail Pro service. It can be installed on the Voicemail Pro server PC or on a separate PC. Only one client can connect to the server at any time.
· Telephone Extension
For internal extensions, the voicemail server can be configure to send message waiting indication. By default this is automatically done when the extension users own mailbox contains new messages.
· User's PC
The following applications can be used on a user's PC to access their messages:
· Phone Manager
IP Office Phone Manager can be used to display the number of new messages in a mailbox and to access that mailbox. The Pro version of Phone Manager can also control the playback of the individual messages once a mailbox has been accessed.
· Web Browser
If the Voicemail Pro server PC is also running Microsoft's IIS web server, users can access voicemail features.
· Web Campaigns
The web campaigns option can be used to collect spoken and key press responses to question from callers and then display those responses to internal agents.
· Web Voicemail
For Voicemail Pro 4.2+, licensed users can be configured to access their own mailbox using a web browser.
· Email Options
The voicemail server can interact with email systems in a number of ways:

Voicemail Pro Page 9

15-601063 Issue 20l (03 March 2009)IP Office
· Voicemail Email
Using either a MAPI client such as Outlook on the server PC or a connection to an SMTP email server, Voicemail Pro can send email messages when a user has a new message. The email can be a simple alert or can include an attached copy of the message. This options does not support synchronization of messages between the users email program and their voicemail mailbox.
· IMAP
IP Office 4.2+ supports licensed users accessing their mailbox from an IMAP compatible email program such as Outlook. This option includes synchronization between the voicemail messages in the email client and the voicemail mailbox.
· Integrated Messaging Systems (IMS)
IMS allows the voicemail server to interact with a Microsoft Exchange Server. Users require an IMS client component to be installed into their copy of Outlook.
· ContactStore Server
The current IP Office Voice Recording Library (VRL) application is Avaya IP Office ContactStore. The application can be installed on the Voicemail Pro Server in a separate hard disk partition or on a separate server. The diagram illustrates the option of installing ContactStore on a separate server.
Voicemail Pro is supplied on two CDs. The first CD contains the Voicemail Pro software. The second CD contains Avaya IP Office ContactStore.
· The standard Voicemail Pro CD includes the software components for generic Text To Speech (TTS). Voicemail Pro
ScanSoft TTS is supplied on a separate set of 5 CDs. For more information, see the Installing Text to Speech section.

1.1 What is New
The following are summaries of the new features in IP Office Voicemail Pro releases.
Voicemail Pro:
Voicemail Pro 4.2
· IP Office Unified Messaging Service (UMS)
Two new methods for users to access their mailbox are now supported. The methods are mailbox access using email applications that support IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) and mailbox access via web browsers. The use of these requires the IP Office configuration to contain UMS Web Services licenses for the number of required users.
· IMAP Service
72
The Voicemail Pro now includes an IMAP server. Users can then access their voicemail messages using email clients such as Outlook and Lotus notes that support an IMAP Client. When connected, the IMAP client and Voicemail Pro will synchronize messages in the mailbox with message files in the IMAP client. Playback is through the sound facilities of the user PC.
· Web Voicemail Service
75
The Voicemail Pro web service allows users to access their mailbox using a web browser. This has been tested with the Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 2 and Opera 9.10 PC browsers. This method of access requires Voicemail Pro to be installed on a PC already running Microsoft's IIS web server. Users can select to have message playback via an IP Office extension or through their PC's sound facilities.
· Test Variable Action
278
The existing Check Digits action has been replaced by a Test Variable action. This, in addition to offering the capabilities of the Check Digits action, provides significant enhancements. In addition to being able to match the user's DTMF input against a specified string offered by the Check Digits action, the Test Variable action allows the testing of the contents of any system variable against known user extensions, hunt-groups, mailboxes and the contents of another variable. This will allow callers to enter numbers via a menu action, that can be verified as matching an existing extension or hunt groups prior to attempting to carry out transfers to otherwise potentially non-existent numbers.
· Menu Action Invalid Input Handling
240
The Menu action has been enhanced. It now includes a control for the number of retries for the caller to make a valid entry and an Invalid Input result for connection to following call flow actions. Also prompts can be selected for playback whenever an invalid entry or entry timeout occurs.
· License and Service Status Display
When the Voicemail Pro client is connected to a Voicemail Pro server, the Help | About screen displays a list of the licenses being used by the Voicemail Pro server. This license details include the validation status and capacity of those licenses. The status of related services, for example the UMS IMAP server, are also listed.
· System Variable Length Increase
211
Previously the length of values stored by system variables has been limited to 64 characters. That maximum length has been increased to 512 characters.
· Outcalling Configuration
In conjunction with Phone Manager 4.2, Voicemail Pro 4.2 allows users to adjust their outcalling settings through using a visual menu within Phone Manager.
· Using the Phone Manager interface, users can now apply a delay between each notification call in an
escalation list.

Those components of Voicemail Pro previously supported on Windows XP Pro are now also supported on Windows Vista (excluding Vista Home Basic and Vista Home Premium). The Voicemail Pro client is supported on Vista. The Voicemail Pro server is supported on Vista but not with IMS or Web Campaigns.
· Automatic Recording Mailbox for Hunt Groups
By default automatic recordings for hunt groups are routed to the hunt group mailbox. Previously this could not be changed except through customized call flows on the Voicemail Pro. An alternate mailbox destination can now be specified through the Hunt Group | Voice Recording tab.
· Automatic Recording Mailbox for Account Codes
By default automatic recordings for account codes are routed to the mailbox of the user making the call. Previously this could not be changed except through customized call flows on the Voicemail Pro. An alternate mailbox destination can now be specified through the Account | Voice Recording tab.
· Call Data Tagging on Transfer Actions
The Transfer action now supports fields for setting the transfer source and description to display on phones receiving the transfer. The ability to associate call data for MS-CRM via Assisted Transfer actions is now also supported on Transfer actions.
· Call Transfer Announcements
The Transfer and Assisted Transfer actions can be configured to announce the transfer to the caller. The
258 263
announcement uses the recorded name of the mailbox associated with the transfer if available or the number if otherwise.
· LIFO/FIFO Mailbox Operation
The default message playback order of First In-First Out (FIFO) can now be changed to Last In-First Out (LIFO). This is separately adjustable for new, old and saved messages. These are set through the System Preferences |
Housekeeping tab (Administration | Preferences | General ).
111 111
· Time in Queue and Time on System Variables
Two new variables can be used in Queued and Still Queued call flows. They are $TimeQueued for the time in the queue and $TimeSystem for the time the call has been on the IP Office system.
· Castelle Fax Server Support
The Voicemail Pro can be configured to recognize faxes of this type left in user's email mailboxes and include announcement of there presence in the user's mailbox prompts.
· Hunt Group/Account Code Call Recording Destination
Previously the destinations for automatic call recording triggered by hunt groups or account codes could not be changed except through a custom Voicemail Pro call flow. The IP Office 4.1 configuration now allows the required destination for the call recording to be specified.
· $DDI System variable for DDI Numbers
This variable is available on DDI calls passed from the IP Office to the Voicemail Pro.
· Variable Routing (replaces the CLI Routing Action)
The existing CLI Routing action has been replaced by the Variable Routing action. This action allows the call routing to be based on matching specified values to system variables such as $CLI and $DDI. The numbers to which matching is performed can include wildcards such as ? for a single digits and * for any digits.

The voicemail system provides prompts to callers and mailbox users based on the Locale that is set in the System form of IP Office Manager.
If the necessary set of language prompts is not available, the nearest available match is used. The list shows the first choice language prompts that Voicemail Pro will try to use, followed by the second choice and so on. For example, if prompts for users with their locale set to French Canadian are not available, Voicemail Pro looks for French prompts instead, then English US and finally English UK. The abbreviations shown in the table indicate the language prompt folder used in order of precedence.
Voicemail Pro server prompts can be installed in the following languages:
1. Turkish prompts are not provided or installed but the Turkish locale is recognized. English (US) prompts are used if
· TTY (Teletype (Textphone)) is included in the list of installable languages even though it is not a language. TTY is a
text-based system that is used to provide service to users with impaired hearing or vision. For more information, see
Support for Callers with Impaired Hearing:Overview .
Individual users can have their own Locale setting. Voicemail then provides them with the appropriate language prompts if they are available. This is set either through the IP Office Manager User form or through the language choice on some telephones. For more information, see the appropriate telephone User Guide.
The availability of a language in voicemail does not necessarily indicate support for IP Office in a country that uses that language. Contact your local Avaya office for details of which countries support IP Office.
· All Voicemail
For calls to voicemail, the locale that is passed to voicemail to determine the prompt to play (if available) is:
· The user locale, if set, is used if the caller is internal.
· The incoming call route locale, if set, is used if caller is external.
· If the the possible locales above are not set, the system locale is used.
· The short code locale, if set, is used and overrides the options above if the call is routed to voicemail using the
short code.

2. Installing Voicemail Pro
Voicemail Pro 4.2 can be installed with the following IP Office systems:
· Small Office Edition.
· IP406 V2.
· IP412.
· IP Office 500
Voicemail Pro is not supported on an IP Office 500 running in IP Office Standard Edition mode. To use this application an IP500 Upgrade Standard to Professional license is required.
There are a number of different types of Voicemail Pro installation that can be performed. Ensure that you have read the appropriate section for the installation required before attempting the actual installation. Each type of installation may have specific pre-requisites that must be completed before the Voicemail Pro software installation.
2.1 General Installation Requirements
Here is a list of general requirements for all types of installation.
· A PC with IP Office Manager and Microsoft .NET Framework versions 2.0 installed on it. If .NET 2.0 is not detected, you
will be prompted to install it before the Voicemail Pro installation proceeds.
· An IP Office Feature Key and if necessary (ie. for parallel and USB feature keys) a PC running the IP Office Feature Key
Server application. Refer to the IP Office Installation Manual for details.
· Licenses based on the serial number of the IP Office Feature Key. This should include:
· A license for Voicemail Pro and any additional ports is required. If Voicemail Pro Server is installed without a
license it will run for 2 hours and then shut down. For more information,
· For IP500 systems an Upgrade Standard to Professional license.
· Licenses for any other Voicemail Pro components being installed, see Voicemail Pro Licenses .
· The IP Office Voicemail Pro CD.
Tips
· Before you start to install Voicemail Pro it is advisable to check that the PC that you are using can connect to the IP
Office unit and that you can load and save a configuration file using IP Office Manager.
· Switch off any PC and hard disk sleep, power down, suspend, hibernation modes.
· The Voicemail Pro software needs to be installed using an account with full administrator rights on the PC. The service
subsequently runs under that account. We recommend that a specific account is created for this purpose and set so that its password does not expire.

2.1.1 PC Specification
The PC specification given below are the absolute minimum. To avoid replacing the server when adding new applications we recommend that at least a Pentium 4 2.8GHz or higher is used wherever possible.
This application requires various licenses entered into the IP Office configuration to control the features it offers and the number of simultaneous connections, up to 30 on the IP412 and IP500 control units. The operation of Voicemail Pro can be customized to provide special services.
The Voicemail Pro software can be installed as separate Voicemail Pro client and server parts. This allows the remote administration of the Voicemail Pro server from a PC with just the Voicemail Pro client installed. A copy of the client is automatically installed locally with the Voicemail Pro server.
The Voicemail Pro server part of the software consists of several components in addition to the core server software, these are:
· Campaigns
The Voicemail Pro can be configured to run a campaign. This consists of a series of questions for which the Voicemail Pro records the callers answer or key presses. The resulting recordings can then be played back by users. The web aspect of campaigns allows user to perform this playback and processing of campaign recordings via their web browser. This requires an IIS web server to be run on the same PC as the Voicemail Pro software.
· Text to Speech (TTS)
Through adding additional licenses, the Voicemail Pro is able to use the TTS functions of Windows to speak text and numbers to callers in addition to recording prompts. This is intended mainly for scenarios where the Voicemail Pro is obtaining text and number values from a customer database.
· UMS Web Voicemail
UMS allows users to access their voicemail mailbox using either an IMAP compatible email program or through their web browser. UMS Web Voicemail requires the Voicemail Pro service to be installed on a server PC that has IIS already present. It also installs PHP if not detected as already present.
· Integrated Messaging Service (IMS)
IMS allows synchronization between the users voicemail mailbox and their Microsoft Outlook via Microsoft Exchange. IMS is not supported with UMS and vice versa.
· Installation on Windows Server Operating Systems
On many Windows server PC's, while the Windows Audio components are present by default they are not always enabled. If this is the case the playback of voice prompts may be 'choppy' and the TTS (if installed) will not work. Note however that enabling Windows Audio does not require the server PC to have a sound card installed.
1.Ensure that you have full administrator rights for the PC. This process will also require the PC to be restated.
2.In the Windows Control Panel select Sounds and Audio Devices.
3.If Windows Audio has not been enabled, select the Enable Windows Audio check-box.
Notes:
1. Use of the Large Fonts setting is not supported. Use of this option may cause options on some screens to become inaccessible.
2. A 100Mbps network card is strongly recommended.
3. Free disk space requirements are also subject to the message storage required. For more information, see Disk
Space Requirements .
4. IMS and Web Campaigns options within Voicemail Pro are only supported on Windows Servers. Aspects of operation such as Voicemail to Email, Integrated Messaging Pro (IMS), Web Campaigns, etc, are subject to further requirements as listed in the relevant sections.

15-601063 Issue 20l (03 March 2009)IP Office
Installing Voicemail Pro: General Installation Requirements
2.1.2 Network Requirements
The PC should be configured and tested for TCP/IP networking.
We strongly recommend that the voicemail server PC is connected to the IP Office Control Unit directly or via a LAN switch.
If directly connected, changing the settings of the PC network card to match the IP Office control unit can resolve some issues. This should be done according to the PC or network card manufacturer's instructions. The options for IP Office LAN ports are:
· IP412: Use LAN1 and half duplex.
· Small Office Edition, IP406 (V2) and IP500: Full duplex.
· All IP Office LAN ports are 10Mbps/100Mbps auto sensing.
If not directly connected, using any of the above settings must be supported and matched by the intervening network equipment.
· The PC should have a fixed IP address. Although PCs in a DHCP network may retain the same IP address between reboots this is not guaranteed.
· If the IP Office is acting as a DHCP server, it defaults to using 192.168.42.2 to 192.168.42.201 for DHCP clients. This leaves 192.168.42.202 to 192.168.42.254 for devices that require fixed IP addresses.
Voicemail Pro Page 23
15-601063 Issue 20l (03 March 2009)IP Office
2.1.3 Disk Space Requirements
The following are only approximations:
· At least 2GB of free disk space is required on the operating system drive (by default c:), regardless of to which drive
Voicemail Pro is actually installed.
· A compact Voicemail Pro installation requires 130MB.
· A typical installation requires approximately 255MB.
· A custom installation, including VPNM and IMS requires up to 2GB of disk space. However, prompts and recorded
messages consume an additional 1MB of disk space per minute.
· For Avaya IP Office Small Office Edition, you can expect to require at least 200 minutes of message recording
space, that is 200MB.
· For a busy environment you can expect to require at least 1000 minutes of message recording space, that is
1GB.
· If you are installing the Client only, you can expect to require at least 170MB.
2.1.4 Web Server Operation
If web browser access is required, the Microsoft IIS Web Server must be installed on the server PC before Voicemail Pro is installed:
· Microsoft web server products run as services and require Voicemail Pro to also run as a service. This applies on
Windows 2003 or XP.
· Internet Information Server 5.0 or higher is required.
2.1.5 Voicemail Email Connection
Voicemail Email operation is supported using either MAPI or SMTP. MAPI requires the Voicemail Pro server PC to have a MAPI-compliant email client installed. For information, see Installing Voicemail Email:Overview .
If Text to Speech is installed, email text to speech is supported using MAPI. For more information, see Setting up Text to
Speech to Read Email .
In both of the above cases, full email sending from the server PC to a user PC should be configured and tested before Voicemail Pro is installed. Testing should use the same PC user account under Voicemail Pro is to be installed.
70
44
2.1.6 ContactStore Operation
The current IP Office Voice Recording Library (VRL) application is Avaya IP Office ContactStore. This application and its installation are documented separately.
However:
· IP Office ContactStore should be installed after Voicemail Pro has been installed and its operation verified.
· IP Office ContactStore must use a separate hard disk partition for its message archiving from that used by
Voicemail Pro for current mailbox messages. Use of a separate hard disk or installation onto a separate server PC are alternatives.
· The use of RAID 1 or RAID 5 are recommended.
· The use of a DVD recorder for long-term archiving is recommended.
· A figure of 7.2MB per hour for archived recordings is given.
· The archived messages held by IP Office ContactStore are accessed via web browser using the port address 8888.
This port address is not configurable and so it is necessary to ensure that it does not conflict with any other web server service running on the same server PC.
Voicemail Pro Page 24
15-601063 Issue 20l (03 March 2009)IP Office
Installing Voicemail Pro: General Installation Requirements
2.1.7 Voicemail Pro Licenses
The following License Keys can be used with Voicemail Pro. The license keys are entered into the IP Office configuration using the IP Office Manager. If the Voicemail Pro server is installed without a license, it will run for 2 hours and then shutdown.
· Voicemail Pro (4 ports)
This is the basic license for all Voicemail Pro operation and must be present. It also enables 4 ports.
· IP500 Upgrade Standard to Professional
The IP Office 500 does not support Voicemail Pro unless this license is present.
Additional Port Licenses
The port licenses control the number of ports (simultaneously connected calls into/from the Voicemail Pro server). Note: The maximum number of ports supported for voicemail operation is set by the type of IP Office control unit. For more information, see Number of Simultaneous Voicemail Users . Multiple port licenses can be used to achieve the number of ports required.
· Additional Voicemail Pro (2 ports)
Enables 2 additional Voicemail Pro ports.
· Additional Voicemail Pro (4 ports)
Enables 4 additional Voicemail Pro ports.
· Additional Voicemail Pro (8 ports)
Enables 8 additional Voicemail Pro ports.
· Additional Voicemail Pro (16 ports)
Enables 16 additional Voicemail Pro ports.
Voicemail Pro Feature Licenses
These licenses enable the use of specific features within Voicemail Pro.
· Integrated Messaging
Enables operation of IMS with Voicemail Pro.
· VMPro VB Script
Enables use of VB Scripting through the VB Script action
· VMPro Database Interface
Enables database integration within call flows.
· VMPro TTS (Generic)
Enables use of text to speech facilities using the default Windows and third party TTS engines. One license per simultaneous instance of TTS usage.
· VMPro TTS (ScanSoft)
Enables use of text to speech facilities using Avaya supplied TTS (ScanSoft) engines. One license per simultaneous instance of TTS usage.
· Networked Messaging
Enables the use of Voicemail Pro Network Messaging.
· VMPro Recording Administrators
Allows call recordings to be transferred to a VRL (Voice Recording Library) application. The currently supported application is ContactStore for IP Office.
· For centralized voicemail operation, a VMPro Recording Administrators license is required in each IP Office
system for which VRL support is required.
· UMS Web Services (IP Office 4.2+)
Allows the voicemail server to run IMAP and Web Voicemail services. The number of UMS Web Services licenses set the number of users who can be configured to access either of those services.

Voicemail Pro Page 25
15-601063 Issue 20l (03 March 2009)IP Office
2.1.8 User and Group Mailboxes
The voicemail server creates mailboxes based on the user and hunt group names that are entered in the IP Office Manager application. Whenever the Voicemail Pro is restarted or the IP Office configuration is changed, new mailboxes are created for any new names that are found.
This method of operation has the following consequences:
· Mailboxes are based on names
For all users and groups, if their name is changed or deleted, they are no longer associated with their former mailbox and any associated Voicemail Pro start points.
· Voicemail is case sensitive
If a mailbox or start point name is entered incorrectly in IP Office Manager or Voicemail Pro, the intended operation will not occur and the call may be disconnected.
· Voicemail removes spaces at the end of mailbox names
If spaces are left at the end of a mailbox user's name in IP Office Manager, when the mailboxes are created, the space at the end of the name is dropped. When this occurs the mailbox cannot be found as there is a mismatch between the user name and directory.

2.2.1 Installing Compact Voicemail Pro Server and Client
If you are upgrading an existing Voicemail System, see Upgrading a Voicemail Pro System .
The compact (basic) installation of Voicemail Pro provides:
· The Voicemail Pro Client.
· The Voicemail Pro Server (as either an executable program or service according to the Windows version).
· Appropriate prompts for the selected installation language.
· Help files and .wav files for Voicemail Prompts in English.
· Help files and .wav files for Voicemail Prompts in the language closest to that used by the locale of the target
machine.
This is the minimum set of components that you need to run Voicemail Pro. Of all of the setup types, compact Voicemail Pro is likely to take up the smallest amount of space but this depends on the language selections.
The process for installing a compact Voicemail Pro Server and Client comprises the following key steps:
1. Completing the pre-installation steps described in this section.
2. Installing the Voicemail Pro software as described in this section.
Before you begin:
1. Log on to the server PC using the account under which you intend the Voicemail Pro server or service to run. This account must have full administrator rights to the local PC.
· Recommendation: Create a new user account called Voicemail and give it full administrator rights on the
PC. This will help to identify the purpose of the account. Set the account password so that it does not expire.
2. In IP Office Manager, check that the correct licenses for Voicemail Pro are installed and show a status of Valid. For basic Voicemail Pro, the licenses required are:
· Voicemail Pro (4 ports) plus Additional Voicemail Pro (X ports) licenses up to the total number of ports
required or supported by the IP Office.
· Installation on Windows Server Operating Systems
On many Windows server PC's, while the Windows Audio components are present by default they are not always enabled. If this is the case the playback of voice prompts may be 'choppy' and the TTS (if installed) will not work. Note however that enabling Windows Audio does not require the server PC to have a sound card installed.
1.Ensure that you have full administrator rights for the PC. This process will also require the PC to be restated.
2.In the Windows Control Panel select Sounds and Audio Devices.
3.If Windows Audio has not been enabled, select the Enable Windows Audio check-box.
