Introduction to configuring a PBX (MAS Admin)

Configuring a PBX determines the way in which the PBX communicates with the voice mail domain.

The screens you use to configure a PBX depend on the type of voice processing you are using. You can configure PBX for the following:

For more information on configuring your PBX, see the PBX configuration note. Configuration notes are available from the Avaya Support Center, at http://support.avaya.com


Notes: You need to administer the PBX configuration only on the messaging application server (MAS) that is the primary domain controller. The other servers, if any, will automatically pickup the properties established for the PBX configuration from the primary controller. You may be prompted to stop and restart the MAS after you have made changes to a property in Voice Mail System Configuration. If so, the changes will not take effect until you stop and restart the MAS. When configuring a PBX, changes may take a few minutes to become effective on all MASs. It is recommended that you run only one instance of Voice Mail System Configuration at a time in the voice mail domain.

Before you begin

Ensure you have read Messaging Application Server (MAS) Basics. That chapter introduces you to the Voice Mail System Configuration application used to perform the configuration.
