A community is a group of subscribers to whom you have assigned
some type of calling restrictions. The administration of communities
enables you to further define the allowed call destinations of your
subscribers.
You create a community to prevent members from:
- Sending mail to other groups
- Receiving mail from other groups
For example, imagine that you have just set up two communities.
Community 1 cannot send messages to international communities. Therefore,
you assign the subscribers who cannot have international access
to Community 1. Community 2 has international access. Therefore,
you assign the international machines and the individuals who are
permitted to access international numbers to Community 2.
Then you administer the communities so that Community 1 is restricted
from sending messages to Community 2. This process tells the messaging
system which subscribers can and cannot access international destinations.
If you have purchased the Enhanced-List Application (ELA) software,
you need to plan a special community if you want to restrict ELA
access to select subscribers, as described in Setting
up ELA and shadow mailbox community IDs.
Once you have administered all communities here, you can assign
individual subscribers to the desired community using the Edit Local
Subscribers web-based administration page or the Mailbox Manager
application. See Editing a local subscriber
or the Mailbox Manager User Guide for more information. You can
also assign machines, for example, fax machines, to communities
that are using the Machine Profile screen and the change machine
machine_name command.
