Configuring a static route

About this task

Handling SIP traffic from the Communications Server to AE Services requires creating a static route between the Communications Server (or servers) and the AE Services Server. This procedure is based on a configuration using Live Communications Server 2005 Enterprise Edition or Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 Enterprise Edition.

Follow this procedure to configure a static route between the Communications Server and the AE Services Server.

Procedure

  1. Depending upon the Communications Server you want to configure, perform one of the following steps:
    • Open the Live Communications Server 2005 administrative snap-in: Click Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools, and click Live Communications Server 2005.

    • Open the Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 administrative snap-in: Click Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools, and click Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007.

  2. In the left pane of the administrative snap-in, expand the Forest node.
  3. Expand Live Communications servers and pools

    (For Standard Edition, Live Communications servers and pools represents the server node; for Enterprise Edition, it represents the pool node.)

  4. Depending on whether you use Server Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition, right-click the <server name> (for Standard Edition) or the <pool name> (for Enterprise Edition) and select Properties.
  5. From the Properties dialog box, select the Routing tab.
  6. Click Add.
  7. Complete the fields on the Add Static Route dialog box as follows:
    1. In the User field, type aes.
    2. In the Domain field, type the fully qualified domain name of the AE Services Server (for example, myaeserver.example.com).
    3. In the Network address field, type the fully qualified domain name of the AE Services Server (for example, myaeserver.example.com).
    4. In the Transport field, select TLS.
    5. In the Port field, type the port that was administered as the TR87 Port in the AE Services Management Console.

      The default is 4723.

    6. For a Live Communications Server Standard Edition only, click Select Certificate.
    7. From the Select Certificate dialog box, select the <Live Communications Server certificate>, and click OK to close the Select Certificate dialog box. Continue with Step h.
    8. For Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 Standard Edition only, click Select Certificate.
