Configure Application Servers

Application Servers Overview

Use the application server function to maintain associations between the Cisco Unified Communications Manager and off-cluster, external applications, such as Cisco Unity Connection and Cisco Emergency Responder. Application servers also synchronize information between Cisco Unified Communications Manager and applications such as Cisco WebDialer.

Application Servers Prerequisites

For Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Connection, make sure that the AXL web service is running on the Cisco Unified Communications Manager node that is configured to communicate with the Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Connection server.

Application Servers Task Flow

Perform either of the following tasks, depending on the type of application server that you want to configure.
