Checklist for adding a new Serenade Digital remote machine

The following table lists the procedures for adding a new Serenade Digital remote machine to the Message Networking system. The procedures appear in the sequence in which they are performed.

Completed Task
  Verify that the Serenade system is enabled for digital networking by running list slots and checking for a LAN card on the Serenade.
  Obtain the completed planning worksheet for the remote machine. You will use the information from this worksheet when you configure the remote machine parameters for the new Serenade machine.
  Obtain the Dial Plan Mapping requirements for the remote machine from your account representative. You will use these requirements to determine how to map the new system's dial plan.
  Determine the type of subscriber update to use for the new system (Full, Dynamic, or Directory View). You will select the subscriber update type when you add the remote machine to the Message Networking system.
  Administer the Message Networking system as a Serenade network node on the Serenade system:
  • Add the Message Networking system as a new location on the Serenade system.
  • Add a numbering plan for the Message Networking system.

The key information you need to complete these tasks is provided on the General Parameters page on the Message Networking system:

  • The Message Networking name, IP address, and serial number. The Serenade system uses this information to send messages to the Message Networking system.
  • The Message Networking network address length.
  Ping the Message Networking system from the Serenade Digital system using the Ping command.
  Administer the remote machine parameters for the new Serenade Digital remote machine.
  Administer the Dial Plan Mapping for the remote machine, using the Dial Plan Mapping requirements you obtained.
  Administer the Serenade Digital sender dial plan for the remote machine, if appropriate.
  Administer directory views, if appropriate.
  Verify that the remote machine has been added to the Message Networking system:
  Test LAN connectivity by transmitting test packets.
  Perform a remote machine connectivity test.
  Run NameSend from the Serenade system to the Message Networking system.
  Verify the NameSend update by viewing the Subscriber List by Machine Name on the Message Networking system.
  (Optional) Run a Demand Remote Push to the Serenade system to manually update the Serenade system.
  Update existing remote machines in the Message Networking network for subscribers on the new Serenade Digital system. The Adding and updating subscribers overview provides information on how subscribers are updated for the different types of remote machines.
