Use the Add New Machine: SMTP/MIME page to add
a new SMTP/MIME-Other remote machine to the Message Networking
system or to modify an existing machine.
Use this machine type for non-Avaya SMTP/MIME remote machines.
Note: It is recommended that you administer a default SMTP/MIME
remote machine to handle SMTP messages from remote machines not
administered on Message Networking. When you create the default
SMTP/MIME remote machine, leave the Domain Name and Outgoing MTA
fields blank for that remote machine. There can be only one default
Internet remote machine on each Message Networking system.
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.
This page contains the following fields.
Machine Type: Select Other
SMTP/MIME.
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.
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 15 characters (for example, 192.43.235.1).
This field is optional because the system uses the domain name to
recognize the sending machine.
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: This
field is always set to Dynamic for SMTP/MIMEOther remote machines.
Default Community ID: Specifies the
community identifier for all subscribers added to this remote machine.
Type an integer from 1 through 15.
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.
Use DNS?: Indicates whether DNS option
is being used. Select yes to use DNS. Select no to
not use DNS. It is strongly recommended that you use DNS. The default
for this field is no.
If you select yes:
- You must administer the DNS servers on the General
Parameters page.
- The primary DNS IP address specified on the General Parameters
page is used to resolve the IP address for the remote machine.
If you retain the default of no:
- Do not administer the DNS servers on the General
Parameters page.
- The outgoing MTA for this remote machine must be an IP address,
unless you edit the /etc/hosts file to administer
host names. If you do not specify an outgoing MTA, then the
incoming domain name must be an IP address.
Port: Type the number of the port being used by the
machine you are adding. The default for this field is 25, the standard SMTP
port number, which will be used by most systems. If you want to use another
port number, specify a number from 1000 to 65000. Some of the numbers
within the range might be unusable.
Domain Name: Type the domain name
of the email address that corresponds to this machine. This field
can be a fully qualified domain name (such as system.location.company.com)
or just a domain (such as company.com). Every email address with
a domain that matches the one you define in this field is considered
a subscriber of this machine.
If you want this remote machine to be the default Internet remote
machine used to handle SMTP messages from remote machines not administered
on Message Networking, leave this field blank. If you leave this
field blank, any email address whose domain does not match any other
domain name of any other SMTP machine is considered a subscriber
of this default Internet machine.
It is strongly recommended that you enter all domain names in lower-case letters to ensure that all domain names across the network are in the same case.
Outgoing MTA: Type the IP address or domain
name of the mail transfer agent, the software component that exchanges mail
with other systems. If you specify an outgoing MTA, every message whose destination
is a subscriber of this SMTP/MIME machine is routed through this MTA. This field
is optional.
Preferred Encoding Type: Select the encoding type
in which voice messages are transcoded when coming from a non-SMTP end node. Select
GSM 6.10, GSM 7.11 u-law, or GSM 7.11 A-law.
If you are modifying an existing machine, click Save to
save your changes. If you are adding a new machine, click Next
Step to save the remote machine and administer
Dial Plan Mapping, or click Add this Machine if you do
not want to administer Dial Plan Mapping at this time:
- If you click Next Step, the Administer Dial Plan Mapping
page displays.
- If you click Add this Machine, a message displays that
the parameters have been saved. Click OK.
