1 Avaya Solution & Interoperability Test Lab Configuring Avaya IP Office and Avaya Communication Manager to Utilize Avaya Modular Messaging for Centralized Voic - Issue 1.0 Abstract These Application Notes describe the steps necessary to configure Avaya IP Office, Avaya Communication Manager and Avaya Modular Messaging to provide a centralized voice messaging solution for users at remote locations. In the sample configuration, one remote site uses an Avaya IP Office, and another remote site uses an Avaya IP Office - Small Office Edition. Each remote site has an IP Trunk to Avaya Communication Manager at a central site. The Avaya Modular Messaging at the central site communicates with Avaya Communication Manager via an IP QSIG trunk to provide voic coverage for all sites. A Microsoft Exchange Server is integrated as a storage server with the Avaya Modular Messaging Application Server. 1 of 41

2 1. Introduction Avaya Modular Messaging can provide a centralized messaging solution for the enterprise customer. Figure 1 illustrates a configuration with smaller customer sites networked to a central site by an IP MPLS Wide Area Network (WAN). Each remote site has a T1 facility using framerelay protocol connected to the WAN. The Avaya IP Office IP 406 and Avaya IP Office - Small Office Edition handle calls at the remote sites, and a pair of Avaya S8710 Media Servers with a G650 Media Gateway handles calls at the central site. The Avaya Modular Messaging system is integrated with a Microsoft Exchange Server as its storage server. An IP QSIG trunk is established between the Avaya Modular Messaging Application Server and the C-LAN in the Avaya G650 Media Gateway, which is controlled by Avaya Communication Manager. Voice calls and messages are routed among these three sites via QSIG based IP trunks. These Application Notes provide detailed configurations for IP Office, Avaya Communication Manager, Avaya Modular Messaging as well as some required configurations for Microsoft Exchange Server to function as a storage server for the Avaya Modular Messaging Application Server. The network diagram shown below was used for these Application Notes.

Equipment and Software Validated The following equipment and software were used for the sample configuration provided: Equipment Software Avaya IP Office IP406 R3.1 (65) Avaya IP Office - Small Office Edition R3.1 (65) Avaya S8710 Media Server with G650 Media Gateway Avaya Communication Manager R3.1.1 (R013x ) Avaya Modular Messaging Application Server R3.0 Avaya 4621SW IP Telephone R2.3 Avaya 5610SW IP Telephone R2.2 Avaya 5410 Digital Telephone Avaya Phone Manager V Microsoft Exchange Server Version 2003 Microsoft 2003 Advanced Server with Active Directory and DNS Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 1 3. IP Office Configuration This section describes the required configuration for IP Office to utilize Avaya Modular Messaging for centralized voic services. Both IP Office (remote site 1) and IP Office-Small Office Edition (remote site 2) have an IP connection to Avaya Communication Manager (central site) via an MPLS-enabled IP network. Both remote sites use a T1 frame relay circuit to connect to an MPLS WAN edge router. Calls within each location use the G.711 codec and calls between locations use the G.729 codec to conserve bandwidth on the WAN links. Messaging features, including voice coverage, call me, and find me, will be configured for IP Office users. Since the configuration for the IP Office - Small Office Edition is similar to the IP Office, only the IP Office configuration is included in these Application Notes. Note: Both the IP Office 406 and the IP Office - Small Office Servers are configured with a serial port license key. 3 of 41
