Use the Add New Machine: VPIM page to add
a new VPIM remote machine to the Message Networking system.
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 VPIM.
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).
Note: If you plan to use the DNS (Domain Name Server) feature,
you do not have to enter a value for this field.
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 VPIM 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. The default
for this field is no. If you select yes, the primary DNS IP address specified
on the General Parameters page is used to resolve the IP address for the VPIM
machine. If you retain the default of no, you must specify an IP address on
this page.
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 fully qualified
name of the VPIM remote machine. Every email address with a domain
matching 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 the Message Networking system, leave this field blank. There
can be only one default Internet remote machine on each Message
Networking system. If you leave this field blank, any email address
with a domain that 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.
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
