Note If the system is not using voice cards to integrate with a circuit-switched phone system, skip this section.
All voice cards must be installed in the same server or in the same expansion chassis. If all voice cards do not fit in the Cisco
All Cisco Unity-compatible voice cards are 33-MHz PCI cards. Universal PCI (uPCI) cards work in either 5-Vdc or 3.3-Vdc PCI and PCI-X slots, while non-universal PCI cards work only in 33-MHz (5-Vdc) slots.
If you are installing a uPCI voice card, you can generally place the card in any physically compatible slot in the server or expansion chassis. However, if the slot you choose is a 3.3-Vdc PCI or PCI-X slot (designed to be 66 segment will slow down to 33 card is placed in a PCI-X slot next to a 133-MHz RAID controller and they share the same logical segment, the RAID controller speed is reduced to 33

Attaching Peripheral Devices and Making Connections from the Phone System

If the slot location of a customer-provided server management card (such as Hewlett-Packard
Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition) conflicts with a required host card slot, the host card takes precedence.
Using an unapproved slot for the host card can cause a conflict with the RAID controller card.
Step 6 Insert each voice card firmly into its slot in the server or in the expansion chassis, and fasten each card
to the back plate with a screw. Note the following considerations, as applicable:
If you are installing more than one voice card of the same model, and if the cards include a hardware
setting that indicates which card is first, second, and so on, install the cards in the order specified by the hardware settings.
If you are installing voice cards of different models in the same server, install cards of the same
model adjacent to one another.
Choose a physically compatible slot in an appropriate bus segment. Refer to the manufacturer
documentation for detailed PCI bus topology information.
Caution Placing a 33-MHz Intel Dialogic voice card in a physical interface slot in the same logical
segment as a 66-MHz PCI or 100-to-133-MHz PCI-X interface card will slow both slots in the logical segment to 33 MHz, degrading performance of the whole platform.
Chapter 3 Setting Up the Hardware
Step 7 If you are installing multiple voice cards that have H.100 bus connectors, cable the cards together. On
each card, connect the cable so the red stripe on the cable corresponds with pin 1 on the card connector. Confirm that the connectors are firmly seated.
Caution If you do not cable cards together as required, the voice card software will not start, and
Cisco Unity will not answer calls.
If the cable has more connectors than the server has voice cards, use the first and last connectors, and leave unused connectors in the middle of the cable. If the end of a cable is allowed to dangle loose, it can act as a radio antenna and pick up noise from the bus.
If you are cabling three or more cards together, connect the first connector on the cable to the first card, the second connector to the second card, and so on.
Attaching Peripheral Devices and Making Connections from the Phone System
We recommend that you connect the Cisco Unity server to a dedicated uninterruptible power supply.
A Cisco Unity server purchased from Cisco is configured for a specific hardware setup. Do not add or change any hardware on the server, except to add voice cards, memory, a tape drive, an external modem, or a rail kit.

Note If the Cisco Unity server does not contain a dual NIC, skip this section.
We recommend that a dual NIC be configured in adapter fault tolerant mode (AFT) or network fault tolerant (NFT) mode. One NIC is designated as the primary and the other NIC as the secondary for active-passive fault tolerance. In this configuration, the primary (active) NIC handles 100 percent of the traffic. Only in the event that the primary NIC becomes unavailable does the secondary NIC then become active and handle 100
Alternatively, if you do not want to configure AFT or NFT, or do not have a second LAN port available, the following configurations are supported, though not recommended:
Disable TCP/IP for the second NIC, which allows you to re-enable the second NIC remotely if the
first NIC fails. (Use the Network and Dial-up Connections Control Panel to disable TCP/IP for the second NIC.)
Disable the second NIC in the BIOS. (On some Cisco Unity servers, the second NIC is disabled in
the BIOS by default.)
Caution Not plugging a network cable into the second NIC is not sufficient. You must either disable TCP/IP for
the second NIC or disable the second NIC in the BIOS, or Cisco Unity may not work properly.

Step 1 Create a group of type MultiPurpose for the Cisco Unity server, and name it UnityServers. Refer to the
applicable IBM Lotus documentation.
Note Multipurpose is the recommended type, but Access Control List Only is acceptable.
Step 2 Register a Person for the Cisco Unity server. Most settings will not affect Cisco Unity functionality,
however, you must do the following:
Create a Lotus Notes mail file for the Person.
Note All Cisco Unity voice messages are submitted to mail.box on the Domino server on which you
create the Lotus Notes mail file. Messages are then routed to the Domino servers on which Cisco
Unity subscribers are homed. Create the Lotus Notes mail file on a Domino server that is
well connected to the network.
Save the user ID file for the Person in a location other than the Domino directory (the default
option). In the Register Person—New Entry dialog box:
a. Check the Advanced check box, so tabs on the left side of the dialog box appear. b. Click the ID Info tab.

Step 7, skip to Step 9.
If you selected a mail template other than MailX.ntf (where X is the version of Domino in use—for example, Mail6.ntf for Domino 6.0) during csServer installation in
Step 7, rerun csServer installation on
the Domino server that you intend to use as the address book server for Cisco Unity. (The address book server is the Domino server that Cisco
Unity monitors for changes to the primary address book, and the server on which it creates default objects.) Select the option to DUC-enable multiple mail templates, then select the applicable MailX.ntf file.
Caution If you do not DUC-enable the MailX.ntf template, default objects created by Cisco Unity,
such as the Unity Messaging account, may not function correctly.
Step 9 In the Domino Administrator or Lotus Notes client on the server you would typically use to administer
the Domino Directory, switch to a Notes
ID that has Designer or higher access to the administration server for the Domino Directory, then close all windows applications including the Domino Administrator and Lotus Notes client.
Note The switch is required for the next step. After you begin the step, you cannot switch to another
Notes ID.

Determining Whether to Set Up Cisco Unity to Use SSL
When subscribers log on to the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant (PCA), their credentials are sent across the network to Cisco Administrator and the Status Monitor are configured to use the Anonymous authentication method. In addition, the information that subscribers enter on the pages of the Cisco Administrator (regardless of which authentication method it uses) is not encrypted.
For increased security, we recommend that you set up Cisco Unity to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. SSL uses public/private key encryption to provide a secure connection between servers and clients, and uses digital certificates to authenticate servers or servers and clients. (A digital certificate is a file that contains encrypted data that attests to the identity of an organization or entity, such as a computer.)

Using the SSL protocol ensures that all Cisco Unity subscriber credentials—as well as the information that a subscriber enters on any page of the Cisco as the data is sent across the network. In addition, when you set up Cisco that a subscriber tries to access any Cisco connected with the real Cisco the subscriber to log on.
To set up a web server such as Cisco Unity to use SSL, you can either obtain a digital certificate from a certificate authority (CA) or use Microsoft Certificate Services available with Windows to issue your own certificate. (A CA is a trusted organization or entity that issues and manages certificates at the request of another organization or entity.) Cost, certificate features, ease of setup and maintenance, and the security policies practiced by the organization are some of the issues to consider when determining whether you should purchase a certificate from a CA or issue your own.
Information on third-party CAs, Microsoft Certificate Services, and SSL is widely available on the Internet, as well as in the Windows and IIS online documentation. Such sources can help you determine whether to use SSL and how to set up a web server to use it.

Enabling the Unity Messaging Repository Conversation

If the Domino servers are not configured in a cluster or if there is only one Domino server, do the procedure in this section to allow subscribers increased access to voice messages during an outage.
Caution Do not enable the Unity Messaging Repository (UMR) conversation if Domino servers are configured
in a cluster. Doing so may cause Cisco and restrict subscriber access to messages stored in the UMR, even though subscriber mail files are available on another Domino server in the cluster.
When a Domino server—or even the entire Domino network—is down, Cisco Unity can answer calls, allow unidentified callers to look up subscriber extensions, and take voice messages. While the e-mail system or network is off line, new voice messages are handled by the Unity Messaging Repository on the Cisco
Unity server.

Unity Administrator
The Cisco Unity Administrator is the website used to do most administration tasks, including: determining system schedules, specifying settings for individual subscribers (or for a group of subscribers by using a subscriber template), and implementing a call management plan.
To access the Cisco Unity Administrator, Cisco Unity requires that the identity of the administrator is authenticated by a name and password. You can choose which IIS authentication method that you want to use for the Cisco to the Cisco
Note Until a Cisco Unity subscriber account is created for the purpose of administering Cisco Unity, you must
use the Windows credentials associated with the administration account that was selected when Cisco Unity was installed to log on to the Cisco Unity Administrator.
The following three subsections discuss the available authentication methods and how they work:

Authentication Methods Available for the Cisco Unity Administrator

By default, IIS is configured so that the Cisco Unity Administrator uses the Integrated Windows authentication method (formerly called NTLM or Windows authenticate the user name and password. If you prefer, you can configure IIS so that the Cisco Administrator uses the Anonymous authentication method instead.
To determine which authentication method to use, first discuss it with the network administrator to confirm that the method you choose aligns with the existing authentication scheme in the organization and addresses security concerns for the site. In addition, consider the advantages and disadvantages of using each authentication method with the Cisco
Unity Administrator, as shown in Tabl e 10-1 and
Table 10-2.

Ta b l e 10-1 Using Integrated Windows Authentication with the Cisco Unity Administrator
Advantages Disadvantages
User credentials are not sent across the
network. Instead, Internet Explorer and Windows use a challenge/response mechanism to authenticate the user.
By default, IIS is already set up so that the
Cisco
Unity Administrator uses the Integrated
Windows authentication method.
Windows cannot validate the identity of a user when the user is
logged on to an untrusted domain. To solve this problem, configure each subscriber browser to prompt for a user name and password so that subscribers can enter the applicable credentials for the domain that the Cisco
Unity server is in. Alternatively, you can establish
trusts across domains.
When subscribers log on to the Cisco Unity Administrator from
another domain, they are prompted to re-enter their credentials each time that they want to use the phone as a recording and playback device for the Media Master.

Subscribers can choose whether to enter their Domino or Windows
credentials on the Cisco
Unity Log On page. If subscribers use their Domino credentials, they do not need to have Windows domain accounts created for them. However, if subscribers have Windows domain accounts, they can use their Windows credentials to access the Cisco
Unity Administrator if the Domino server goes down, for
example.
When subscribers log on to the Cisco Unity Administrator from
another domain, they can enter the applicable credentials on the Cisco
Unity Log On page for the domain that the Cisco Unity server is in. Thus, you do not need to configure each subscriber browser to prompt for a user name and password, nor do you need to establish trusts across domains.

How Integrated Windows Authentication Works with the Cisco Unity Administrator

When IIS is configured so that the Cisco Unity Administrator uses Integrated Windows authentication, Cisco
Unity does not authenticate the subscriber. Instead, the identity of the user is verified by Windows.
1. A Cisco Unity subscriber starts Internet Explorer and attempts to browse to the Cisco Unity
Administrator website.
2. Internet Explorer tries to get the home page for the Cisco Unity Administrator from IIS.
3. IIS indicates that it cannot authenticate the user.
4. When Internet Explorer is configured to prompt for a user name and password, it displays a dialog
box and waits for the subscriber to enter the Windows domain account credentials. Once the subscriber enters the credentials, Internet Explorer tries to get the Cisco page again, but this time, it sends IIS an encrypted message regarding the Windows domain account based on the credentials that the subscriber entered in the dialog box.
When Internet Explorer is not configured to prompt for a user name and password, Internet Explorer tries to get the Cisco
Unity Administrator web page again, but this time, it sends IIS an encrypted message regarding the Windows domain account based on the credentials that the subscriber entered to log on to Windows.
In both scenarios, the user password—or any representation of the password—is not sent across the network because authentication relies on Windows challenge/response.

5. If Windows can confirm the identity of the Windows domain user, then IIS sends the user and
domain name to Cisco
Unity, and the process continues with Step 6.
If Windows cannot validate the identity of the Windows domain user (as would be the case if the subscriber logged on to an untrusted domain), Internet Explorer prompts the subscriber for a user name and password. Once again, the credentials are not sent across the network; instead, Internet Explorer sends IIS an encrypted message regarding the Windows domain account based on the credentials that were entered in the dialog box. If Windows still cannot authenticate the user, Internet Explorer displays a message indicating that access to the website is denied because the domain account is unknown.
6. Cisco Unity checks to see that there is a subscriber account associated with the Windows domain
account used to authenticate the subscriber and that the subscriber account has COS rights to access the Cisco

How Anonymous Authentication Works with the Cisco Unity Administrator

When IIS is configured so that the Cisco Unity Administrator uses Anonymous authentication, Cisco
Unity authenticates the credentials that subscribers enter on the Cisco Unity Log On page.
1. A Cisco Unity subscriber starts Internet Explorer and attempts to browse to the Cisco Unity
Administrator website.
2. Internet Explorer tries to get the home page for the Cisco Unity Administrator from IIS.
3. IIS allows access to Cisco Unity based on the privileges for the IUSR_[computer name] account.
(This is the anonymous account that IIS uses for Anonymous authentication by default.)
4. Cisco Unity presents the Cisco Unity Log On page, which is displayed in the browser.
5. By default, the Log On page prompts subscribers to enter the Domino credentials, as shown in
Table 10-3. However, subscribers can click the Log On Using Windows Authentication link
provided on the Log On page to browse to another Log On page, as shown in Tabl e 10-4, on which they can enter their Windows domain account credentials.

Password Subscribers must enter the password for their Windows domain account.
Domain Subscribers must enter the name of the domain in which their Windows domain account resides, unless
they entered a full path for their alias in the User Name field. If that is the case, subscribers can leave the field blank.

9.
(Note that by default, the connection between the Cisco Unity server and the Domino server is not encrypted. Refer to the Domino documentation for details on encrypting network data on a server port. It is also a good idea to discuss potential performance issues with the Domino administrator for the organization before enabling encryption on the Domino server.)
