Sftware cnfiguratin guide Preparing fr yur rm system Several weeks befre installing yur rm system s hardware and cnfiguring its sftware, cmplete the fllwing tasks. Task Ensure yu have all items dcumented in the SMART Rm System fr Micrsft Lync installatin and service preparedness checklists (knwledgebase.frce.cm/?q=000014425). Ensure yur rganizatin has implemented Lync 2013 and the Lync infrastructure is functining. Dwnlad and fllw the instructins in the Micrsft Lync Rm System Deplyment Guide (micrsft.cm/en-us/dwnlad/cnfirmatin.aspx?id=39274). This guide explains hw t prvisin the Lync accunt in the Lync Server and the Micrsft Exchange server. Use a test cmputer t cnfirm that the Lync accunt is functining. Determine if yur Lync infrastructure includes a key management service (KMS) server and if the KMS server is cnfigured t prvide Lync 2013 prduct keys. A KMS server autmatically prvides a prduct key t the Lync Rm System sftware.
