Establishing a network connection to the NexPath Telephone Server
NexDirector communicates with the NexPath Telephony Server using the local area network (LAN), or
Ethernet. You must have TCP/IP enabled on your Windows PC, an Ethernet card installed and connected
the LAN, and a compatible IP address assigned to your Windows PC, in order to communicate with the Nex-
Path Telephony Server. You must also have assigned a compatible IP address to the NexPath Telephony
Server as well. See the the chapter Network Installation
startingonpage21intheSystem Administration
Guide for details on setting the IP address on the NexPath Server.
Login to the NexPath Server by selecting Tools -> Configure on the menu bar, using the login Configura-
tion dialog box as shown in Figure 5-1 on page 96. Click inside the System Name entry box, and type in the
system name assigned to your NexPath Telephony Server. If your system name is not available from DNS
(Domain Name Service), or in the \Windows\Hosts file, then type in the IP address
of the NexPath Tele-
phony Server instead.
