Add or modify a remote machine: INTUITY-related machine

Use the Add New Machine: INTUITY 4.0 or later page to add a new INTUITY-related remote machine to the Message Networking system or to modify an existing machine.

This page contains the following fields.

New Machine Name: Type a unique name for the remote machine you are adding. The machine name can be up to 23 alphanumeric characters:

  • Enter uppercase letters as uppercase.
  • Enter lowercase letters as lowercase.
  • Use a hyphen (-) or an underscore (_).
  • These names cannot start with a number.
  • There can be no blank spaces.

Note: The name must be unique on both the local Message Networking network as well as any other Message Networking systems in the network. To ensure that you are using a unique name, check the Remote Machines List on all Message Networking systems in your network.

Machine Type: Select INTUITY 4.0 or later.

Bridged Machine: Specify whether this remote machine is to be used as a bridged machine. Bridged machines are used by Message Networking to pass messages between nonbridged remote machines. Select yes to indicate that this remote machine is to be used as a bridged machine. If this remote machine is not being used as a bridged machine, select no. The number of remote machines that can be used as a bridge is specified by the Number of Bridged Nodes field on the Customer Options page. If this remote machine is an Interchange 5.4 system, this field must be set to no.

Note: The Bridged Machine field does not appear if the Number of Bridged Machines on the Customer Options page is set to 500 (the maximum).

IP address: Type the IP address of the machine, up to 29 characters (for example 192.43.235.1). Message Networking uses the IP address to contact and send messages to remote machines. Make sure that you enter the correct IP address as the system does not validate the number you enter. This field is optional for the SMTP-Unified Messenger, SMTP-MM, and other non-Avaya SMTP/MIME machine types.

Note: If you plan to use the Domain Name Server (DNS) feature, you do not have to enter a value for this field.

Password: Enter the password exactly as it is administered on the remote system. Five to ten alphanumeric characters are allowed.

Message Transmission Schedule: It is recommended that you stagger start times and intervals for each remote system so the Message Networking system is not trying to call all remote systems at the same time. You can enter up to three message transmission schedules:

  • Start: Type the starting time for a message transmission period to the remote system in hh:mm format, such as 00:01 for one minute after midnight.
  • End: Type the ending time for a message transmission period to the remote system in hh:mm format, such as 23:59 for one minute before midnight.
  • Interval: Type the interval at which the Message Networking system will call this remote system in hh:mm format, such as 00:05 for every 5 minutes. Message Networking checks the queue at this interval (such as every 5 minutes) and calls the remote system if something is in the queue for this remote system.

Channel: Type the number of the channel to be used. Enter 0 to specify that the system selects the first idle channel it finds for the specified data rate.

Send Multimedia Messages (e.g., FAX): Specify whether the remote machine accepts multimedia messages, such as fax. Select yes if you want the remote machine to accept multimedia messages. Select no if you do not want the remote machine to accept multimedia messages.

Note: Only INTUITY AUDIX Release 3.0 or higher and INTUITY AUDIX LX accept multimedia messages.

Avaya Interchange: Specify whether the new remote machine is an Interchange 5.4 system. Select 5.4 if the new remote machine is an Interchange 5.4 system. Select no if the new remote machine is not an Interchange system. The default for this field is no.

Mailbox ID Length: Type the number of digits in mailbox IDs on the remote machine, up to 10 digits.

Note: To change the Mailbox ID Length after initial system administration, see Changing a remote machine's mailbox number length for the steps you must complete to successfully change this field.

Default Language: Use this field to specify the default language on the remote machine. If more than one language is installed on the system, select the language from the drop-down menu. The default for this field is en-US (US English).

If you change the Default Language after initial remote machine administration, subscribers that you subsequently add to the remote machine are assigned the new Default Language as their default Language ID. However, the Language IDs of existing subscribers on the remote machine do not change.

Failed Msg. Notification Priority?: Indicates whether to mark failed message notifications with priority status. Select yes to mark failed message notifications with priority status. Select no if you do not want to mark failed message notifications with priority status. The default for this field is no.

Msg ID?: Specify whether to include the original message ID in failed message notifications. Select yes to include the original message ID. Select no if you do not want to include the original message ID in failed message notifications. The default for this field is no.

Send Message for EAW?: Specify whether the original message is sent back to a subscriber after that subscriber has sent a message from this machine to an Aria machine that has the Extended Absence Greeting (EAG) warning activated. This message return is in addition to the message indicating the actual EAG warning condition. Select yes to return the original message. Select no if you do not want to return the original message. The default for this field is no.

Default NameNet Type: Specify the default NameNet type, set up on the remote machine, that is used for aging purposes by the remote machine. Type p if directory entries are permanent. Type u if entries are usage-based, which indicates that directory entries are temporarily available based on the network traffic of a particular remote machine. The default for this field is u.

Organization: Use this field to provide a description of the organization using Message Networking, up to 64 characters. This field is optional and for informational purposes only.

Organization Unit: Use this field to provide a description of the organization unit using Message Networking, up to 64 characters. This field is optional and for informational purposes only.

Node ID: Unique node ID for this remote machine. This field is display-only and cannot be modified.

Comments: You can optionally type any comments about this remote machine, up to 68 alphanumeric characters. This field is optional and for informational purposes only.

Subscriber Updates Type: Select the type of remote subscriber updates to be sent to this remote machine:

  • directory-view: Select directory-view to specify that updates should be sent to the remote machine only for the network address ranges defined in the remote machine's Directory View.
  • dynamic: Select dynamic to specify that the remote machine should receive updates for subscribers that exchange messages with this remote machine.
  • full: Select full if you want full updates sent for all remote machines on the Message Networking system to this remote machine. If you select full, verify that the remote machine has enough space for information on all subscribers from all remote machines connected to the Message Networking system.

The default for this field is dynamic. To receive no updates, select directory-view, make sure no views are defined for this remote machine, and then set the Updates: Out? field to n.

Voiced Names for Dynamic?: If the Subscriber Updates Type is set to dynamic, specify whether to include the subscriber's voiced name in the update. You cannot modify this field until a new remote machine is saved .Select yes to include the voiced name. Select no if you do not want to include the voiced name. The default for this field is yes.

Dynamic Sub Expiration Days: Type the number of days a dynamically-added subscriber can exist without performing any activity (without sending or receiving messages). This number must match the number of aging days administered on the remote machine. The default for this field is 90. The minimum for this field is 1. The maximum for this field is 999.

Updates In: Specify whether the Message Networking system can receive updated user database information from this remote machine. Select yes if this Message Networking system accepts updated user information from this remote machine. Select no if this Message Networking system does not accept updated user information from this remote machine. The default for this field is no.

Updates Out?: Specify whether Message Networking is able to send user information updates to this remote machine. Select yes if this Message Networking system sends user information updates to remote machines. Select no if this Message Networking system does not send user information updates to remote machines. The default for this field is no.

Network Turnaround: Turnaround is the ability to return updated information using the same connection. Use this field to specify whether the Message Networking network connection can turn around after sending network data to a remote machine. Select yes to enable network turnaround for this remote machine. Select no is disable network turnaround for this remote machine. The default for this field is yes.
