CONFIGURING THE
AUTHENTICATION SERVER
This chapter provides information on how to configure the
authentication server through the provisioning server. Use the web
provisioning server to manage rate plans, patterns, and calls plans and
to add and manage users in specific network domains. Also, use the
web provisioning server to search users based on select criteria.
View no more than 50,000 objects through the provisioning server at a
time; otherwise, it could overload the provisioning server.
Be sure to set your Web browser preferences so that the cache is updated
when ever you modify or view a new web page.
Direct Phone to
Gateway Dialing
This feature allows for remote survivability and requires no configuration.
Sites that do not have a local VCX V7000 IP Telephony Suite can still
make calls to each other as well as to the PSTN when the connection to
the remote IP Telephony Suite is lost, for instance, because of LAN issues
or a down IP Telephony Suite.
Accessing the
Authentication
Server Interface
To access the authentication server interface through the web
provisioning server:
1 From a standard web browser, log into 3Com VCX 7000 main web page,
which is usually http://<IP address of VCX 7000 server>/voipadmin.
2 Click VCX Administrator Interface and log in.
3 At the top of the main page of the web provisioning server, click Users.
The 3COM Voice Core Exchange Authentication Server main page
appears. See Figure 1.
