Shared and specific messaging application server configuration

When configuring a voice mail system you define how messaging applications servers (MASs) in a voice mail domain interact with other parts of the messaging environment, for example, PBXs.

The Voice Mail System Configuration application presents a collection of dialog boxes for configuring the system. Properties fall into two categories:

Shared across MASs grouped in a voice mail domain

For these properties, configuration can be carried out centrally. Any changes made to a voice mail domain's properties are updated and replicated automatically to all MASs in the voice mail domain.

Specific to an MAS

For these properties, configuration must be carried out for each MAS in a voice mail domain.

Before you begin

Before you begin the configuration, you should be familiar with your messaging environment, including the e-mail server and MAS setup. You should also be familiar with the concept of a voice mail domain.
