Time
Zone: _____________________
|
Sets the local time zone and offset from Greenwich Mean Time
(GMT).
Select the time zone that most closely matches the location of
your server.
Caution
|
In a cluster, you must set the subscriber server to the same
time zone as the publisher server.
|
|
Yes, using the CLI command
CLI >
set timezone
|
MTU
Size: ______________________
|
Sets the largest packet, in bytes, that is transmitted by this
host on the network.
By default, MTU is set to the size defined in the operating
system.
Selecting a different packet size would be more prevalent where
a VPN or IPsec tunnel is used with a custom packet size. Web access over VPN
can cause web pages not to load because of an improper MTU configuration.
The MTU size that you configure must not exceed the lowest MTU
size that is configured on any link in your network.
Note
|
In clustered server pairs, the MTU setting must be the same on
both servers
|
|
Yes, using the CLI command
CLI >
set network mtu
|
Hostname and IP addresses:
DHCP (Yes/No): ______
If DHCP is
No:
Hostname: _________________
IP Address: _________________
IP Mask: ___________________
Gateway (GW) Address:________
|
Sets whether to use DHCP to automatically configure the network
settings on your server.
If you select
No, you must enter a hostname, IP address, IP address mask,
and the gateway IP address.
The hostname can contain up to 50 alphanumeric characters, hyphens, underscores, and period. The first character cannot be
a hyphen.
We recommend you use static Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP)
host configuration to ensure the DHCP server always provides the same IP
address settings to the server
Note
|
If you do not have a gateway, you must still set this field to
255.255.255.255. Not specifying a gateway may limit you to only being able to
communicate with devices on your subnet.
|
Caution
|
Make sure not to use ciscounity in the hostname of the server
else enterprise replication gets broken.
|
|
Yes, using the CLI command
CLI >
set network dhcp
CLI > set network gateway
CLI > set network ip eth0
|
Domain Name Server:
DNS: (Yes/No): ______
If DNS is
Yes:
Domain: ____________________
DNS Primary: _________________
DNS Secondary: _______________
|
Sets whether a DNS server resolves a hostname and IP address.
Note
|
Unity Connection enables the use of a domain name server to
locate other Cisco Unity servers and devices. This is necessary when
configuring digital networking and clustered server pairs. We recommend you to
configure a secondary DNS server to avoid any loss of connectivity or service.
|
|
Yes, using the CLI commands
CLI >
set network dns
CLI >
set network domain
|
Administrator Account Credentials:
Login: ____________________
Password: _________________
|
Sets the administrator credentials for secure shell access to
the CLI and for logging into Cisco Unified Communications Operating System and
Disaster Recovery System.
The administrator account should be shared only with installers
and engineers who have a thorough understanding and are responsible for
platform administration and upgrades, and backup and restore operations.
Note
|
Ensure the password is at least six characters long; it can
contain alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscore.
|
|
Login: No.
Password: yes, using the CLI command
CLI >
set password user admin
Note
|
You can create additional administrator accounts after
installation.
|
|
Certificate Information:
Organization: ____________________
Unit: ______________________
Location: _________________
State: ____________________
Country: _________________
|
Sets information used by the server to generate certificate
signing requests (CSRs) that are used to obtain third-party certificates.
Tip
|
To enter more than one business unit name, separate the entries
with a comma. For entries that already contain a comma, enter a backslash
before the comma that is included as part of the entry.
|
For location, you can enter any setting that is meaningful
within your organization. Examples include the state or the city where the
server is located.
|
Yes, using the CLI command
CLI >
set web-security
|
Cluster:
First server in cluster (Yes/No): ____
If First server is
No:
Publisher hostname: ____________
Publisher IP address: ____________
Publisher security password: ______
|
First server refers to the publisher server. During the
installation of second or subscriber server, enter the details of the first
server.
|
|
NTP Servers:
NTP Server 1: __________________
NTP Server 2: __________________
NTP Server 3: __________________
NTP Server 4: __________________
NTP Server 5: __________________
|
Sets the hostname or IP address of one or more network time
protocol (NTP) servers that synchronizes with your Unity Connection server.
The NTP service ensures that the time synchronized is accurate
for date/timestamps of messages, reports, and various tools, such as logs and
traces.
All Unity Connection servers require an external NTP source that
are accessible during installation. The source can be a corporate head-end
router synchronized with a public NTP time server or it can be the public NTP
time server itself.
Note
|
To avoid potential compatibility, accuracy, and network jitter
problems, the external NTP servers should be NTP v4 (version 4). If you are
usingIPv6 addressing, external NTP servers must be NTP v6.
The NTP server that you specify for the publisher server is
automatically applied for the subscriber server.
|
|
Yes, using Cisco Unified Operating System Administration:
Settings > NTP

Using the CLI command
CLI > using the CLI command

Security Password
|
Sets the password used by a subscriber server to communicate
with a publisher server.
The security password is also used by the Disaster Recovery
System to encrypt backups.
The password must contain at least six alphanumeric characters.
It can contain hyphens and underscores, but it must start with an alphanumeric
character.
|
Yes, using the CLI command
CLI >
set password user security
Caution
|
If you are changing the security password in a clustered server
pair you must change the security password on both servers and reboot both
servers. For more information, see the description of this command in the
Command Line Interface Reference Guide for Cisco Unified Solutions.
|
|
SMTP Server
|
Sets the hostname or IP address for the SMTP server that is used
for outbound e-mail, intrasite links, Voice Profile for Internet Mail (VPIM),
and HTTPS networking.
The hostname can contain alphanumeric characters, hyphens, or
periods but it must start with an alphanumeric character.
Note
|
You must specify an SMTP server if you plan to use electronic
notification.

Yes, using the CLI command:
CLI >
set smtp
