These instructions should assist in configuring your Avaya Communications Manager to work with TIM Enterprise. If you are not familiar with PBX configuration, please contact your system maintainer.
Connection information | Description |
---|---|
Connection type | IP: The Avaya Communication Manager requires a few changes on the system to get it to output the CDR via TCP/IP. You will find information on the required changes below. |
IP Method | The Avaya Communications Manager sends the CDR data to the IP address of the TIM Enterprise machine on a specific TCP port. |
Configuring your your Avaya Communications Manager
Configuring node-names
You will need to use the change node-names command to add a new node. You will have two fields which are required to be populated:
- Name: In this field please enter in TIM Enterprise.
- IP Address: This needs to be set to the IP Address of the machine that TIM Enterprise is installed on.
Below you can find an example of node-names configuration:
Configuring ip-services
You will need to use the change ip-services command to add/ammend ip-services. There are three pages that need to be configured, below you will find, by page the fields that need to be configured.
In Page 1, you will have the following fields which are required to be populated:
- Service type: This needs to be set to CDR1.
- Local Node: This needs to be set to the node-name of the CLAN board.
- Local Port: This cannot be changed, it is always set to 0.
- Remote Node: This needs to be set to the node-name which was created in the node-names section which should be TIM Enterprise.
- Remote Port: This is the TCP port that TIM Enterprise will be listening on, generally the 9000 range is normally free so we could recommended you select one from there.
Below you can find an example of ip-services configuration, Page 1:
In Page 2, no configuration changes are needed.
