Introduction to Octel Analog Networking gateway administration

Note: Octel Analog Networking is available with Avaya Modular Messaging — Microsoft Exchange version only.

You administer an Octel Analog Networking gateway to enable Avaya Modular Messaging subscribers to exchange voice messages with other Octel Analog Networking-enabled voice mail systems.

Depending on your configuration, you administer an Octel Analog Networking gateway in one of the following two ways:

Important!   To run Octel Analog Networking Administration, all MASs running Octel Analog Networking in a voice mail domain must use the same version of the peer Exchange server, either Exchange 2000/2003 or Exchange 5.5.

Before you begin

Before you begin to administer an Octel Analog Networking node, do the following:

  1. Collect the following configuration details from the administrator of the remote Octel Analog Networking node:
    • Length of mailbox numbers on the remote Octel Analog Networking node.
    • Access telephone numbers for the remote Octel Analog Networking node. If you are specifying an OcteLink node, you also need the number of the Intuity Interchange hub.
    • Serial number for the remote Octel Analog Networking node.
  2. Make a note of the serial number for the Octel Analog Networking system on Avaya Modular Messaging. The serial number is a line item on the Octel Analog Networking certificate included with the Avaya Modular Messaging shipment.
  3. Restrict which ports are to be used for incoming and outgoing Octel Analog Networking calls. Do this by setting up the following two Octel Analog Networking port groups:
    • The port group for incoming Octel Analog Networking calls to the MAS. This must be called, Octel Analog Networking Incoming.
    • The port group for outgoing Octel Analog Networking calls to the MAS. This must be called, Octel Analog Networking Outgoing.

      • For information on creating port groups, see Configuring port groups.

Note: If you do not set up Octel Analog Networking port groups, the ports in the Telephone User Interface port group are used by default.
