1. Overview
This manual covers the installation, configuration and maintenance of a Unified C ommunications Module in an IP500 V2/IP500 V2A system running IP Office Release 11.1 FP1 software. The module is a Linux-based server that allows various IP Office applications to run as embedded applications within the IP Office control unit rather than requiring a separate PC .
The Unified C ommunications Module can host the following applications:
·
Linux This is the base operating system used. Howev er, no specific Linux knowledge is required for installation and maintenance.
·
Management Se rvices This is a shell version of IP Office that allows basic configuration of services such as remote SSL VPN connections for server support. It also controls security settings for access to the server's menus. It does not support call features such as users, extensions or trunks.
·
one-X Portal for IP Office This is a web browser based application that users can use to control making and answering calls on their phone. It also provides a range of gadgets for the user to access features such as their directory, call log and voicemail messages. The one-X Portal for IP Office application is configured and managed remotely via web browser.
·
Voice mail Pro This is a voicemail server. It provides mailbox services to all users and hunt groups on the IP Office system. In addition, you can customize it to provide a range of call routing and v oicemail services. Maintainers use the Windows Voicemail Pro client, downloadable from the server, to remotely configure the service.
·
Web Manager You can configure and manage the server via browser access to the Web Manager menus. The menus also allow the launching of other clients used to configure and monitor the services run by the server.
·
Optiona l Serv ices The Unified C ommunications Module does not support any optional services (for example Media Manager, WebRTC G ateway, Web C lient and Web C ollaboration).

Overview:
1.1 What's New in Release 11.1 FP1
For those familiar with Unified C ommunications Module installation, the following is a summary of the changes in IP Office Release 11.1 FP1:
·
End of Windows-Bas ed Server Support For R11.1, the Windows-based versions of V oicemail Pro and one-X Portal for IP Office are no longer supported. IP Office systems being upgraded to R11.1 will need to migrate their services to either an IP Office Application Server or Unified C ommunications Module.
·
Upgrading to R11.1 For IP Office Release 11.1, the normal methods of upgrading Linux-based servers from a prev ious release, for example from R11.0 to R11.1, are not supported. This is due to the underlying change of Linux OS. Instead, the severs must be upgraded using the separate processes detailed in the "Upgrading Linux-Based IP Office Systems to R11.1" manual.
·
Subscription Mode Sy stems IP Office R11.1 introduces support for IP Office Subscription mode sy stems. These use subscriptions provided by an Av aya subscription server to enable users and user features. IP Office Subscription mode is supported on IP500 V2/IP500 V2A and Linux-based servers.
·
TTS Langua ge Installa tion The installation process no longer includes any TTS languages by default. If TTS is required, these can be installed from the separate TTS ISO images.
·
Voice mail Pro Client Ac cess Access to the voicemail service settings using the Voicemail Pro client is now disabled by default. The client can be enabled using the Enable Voic email Pro Clie nt Inter fa ce options in web manager (Applications |
Voice mail Pro - Sy stem Preferences).
IP Office R11.1 FP1 FP1
The following additional changes have been added to the Feature Pack:
·

Overview: Additional Documentation
1.6 IP Address Notes
During installation, you assign an IP address to the Unified C ommunications Module. The IP Office sy stem has two physical LAN interfaces: LAN1 and LAN2.
·
The Unifie d Communications Module connec ts internally to the IP Office LAN1 network and must hav e a n IP address the same subnet as that interface .
Internal IP Addresses
The IP Office applications use the following fixed addresses for internal connections. You need to be aware of them as they appear in the IP Office system and one-X Portal for IP Office configuration settings.
·
169.254.0.1 The one-X Portal for IP Office application uses this address for its connections to the IP Office. The Unified Communications Module uses it as its SNTP time source address.
·
169.254.0.2 The IP Office and the one-X Portal for IP Office application use this address for their connections to the voicemail service.
User and Administration IP Addresses
User and administrator access to the Unified C ommunications Module and the applications it hosts use the following addresses.
·
Unified Communica tions Module During installation, web browser access to the module's ignition menu uses the IP Office system's LAN1 IP address. The ignition process then configures a separate IP address to use for all future access to the module and its applications.
·
one-X Portal for IP Office Web browser access to the one-X Portal for IP Office service running on the module uses the module's IP address or DNS name suffixed with port :8080.
·
Voice mail Pro The Voicemail Pro client accesses the voicemail server service running on the module using the module's IP address or DNS name.
LAN2 and NAT Limitation
Traffic between the IP Office control unit and the module uses LAN1 of the IP Office system. For systems with more than 30 users, avoid scenarios where users of the module applications, especially one-X Portal for IP Office, access the module applications via the IP Office system's LAN2 (WA N) port. This also applies when using NAT on traffic between LAN1 and LAN2.
1.7 Small Community Networks
Up to 32 IP500 V2/IP500 V2A systems can connect using H323 SC N trunks to form a Small C ommunity Network, supporting up to 1000 users. However, when using a Unified C ommunications Module, the Small C ommunity Network only supports up to 6 systems. Also, if running the one-X Portal for IP Office application, it only supports up to 200 users.
When installing an IP Office Application Server server within a Small C ommunity Network, it is important to be aware of the following factors affecting the different server applications:
·
one-X Portal for IP Office A Small C ommunity Network only supports a single one-X Portal for IP Office server. When run on a Unified Communications Module, one-X Portal for IP Office only supports up to 200 users and 50 simultaneous user sessions. To support more users and sessions, install the one-X Portal for IP Office application on a separate server PC .
·
Voice mail Pro In an Small C ommunity Network , one Voicemail Pro server stores all mailboxes and their related messages, greeting and announcements. Additional Voicemail Pro servers installed in the network perform other specific roles. For full details, refer to the Voicemail Pro manuals.

2.4 Preparing a USB Installation Key
Avaya supplies the Unified C ommunications Module v2 without pre-installed software. Therefore, a USB memory key is required to install the new software onto the module. Avaya supplies the Unified C ommunications Module v1 with pre-installed software, but that software is unlikely to match the software level of the IP Office system. Therefore, a new software install is assumed as part of the Unified C ommunications Module v1 installation.
This process extracts a downloaded IS O image onto a USB memory key and then turns that memory key into a bootable device for software installation or upgrading.
Prerequisites
·
6GB USB Memory Key Note that this process reformats the memory key and erases all files.
·
Avaya USB Creator Tool This software tool is downloadable from the same page as the ISO files. After installation, you can use the tool to load an ISO image onto a USB memory key from which the server can boot and either install or upgrade.

2.5 Checking the Licenses
The Unified C ommunications Module requires an IP Office sy stem running with an Essential Edition license at minimum. Additional licenses may be required for additional features.
·
Essential E dition This license is a pre-requisite for the Prefe rre d Edition license below.
·
Preferr ed Edition (Voicemail Pro) The Voicemail Pro application requires this license. The license enables the application and 4 voicemail ports.
·
Preferr ed Edition Additional Voic email Ports These licenses add additional voicemail ports. You can add multiple licenses, up to 20 ports when running Voicemail Pro and one-X Portal for IP Office, or 40 ports when running just Voicemail Pro.
·
User Profile Lice nses For a user to use the one-X Portal for IP Office application, you must license and configure the user to one of the following user profiles in the IP Office configuration: Office Worker, Te le worker or Power User. Each role requires an available Office Wor ker , Teleworke r or Power Use r license in the IP Office configuration.
2.6 Changing the IP Office Time Settings
By default IP Office sy stems are configured to obtain time from its Voicemail Pro server which obtains that time from the Windows server on which it is installed. Obviously this option cannot be used when the voicemail server is running on a Unified C ommunications Module since the module gets its time from the IP Office. To support the module, the system must either use an external SNTP time server or to have its time and date set manually.
To change the time settings:
1. Start IP Office Manager and receive the configuration from the IP Office system.
2. Select Syste m and select the Sy stem tab.
3. Change the Time Se tting Config Source value as follows:
·
To Use a n Exter nal Time Serv er Change the setting to SNTP. IP Office Manager displays the additional fields for setting the address of the time server or servers.
·
To Set the Time Manually Change the setting to None. The system's time and date are now set through the menu of an Avaya phone user who has System Phone Rights. Refer to the IP Office Manager help for details.
4. Click on the save icon to send the configuration back to the IP Office.
