About this task

Enabling AE Services refers to administering the transport link between Communication Manager and AE Services. You need to enable AE Services if any of the following AE Services features are to be employed.

  • Device, Media, and Call Control (DMCC) applications that use Registration Services or Call Information Services (First party call control)

  • DMCC applications that use Call Control Services (Third party call control)

  • Telephony Web Service

  • JTAPI

  • TSAPI

  • CVLAN

  • DLG (ASAI applications)

Procedure

  1. Type change ip-services.

    Communication Manager displays the IP SERVICES form. For an example, see Figure 8: Configuring IP services in Configuring IP services - administering the transport link.

  2. Complete Page 1 of the IP SERVICES form as follows:
    1. In the Service Type field, type AESVCS.
    2. In the Local Node field, type the appropriate entry based on whether you are using a Processor Ethernet interface:
    3. In the Local Port field, accept the default value 8765.
  3. Complete Page 3 of the IP SERVICES form as follows. For an example, see Figure 9: Configuring IP services - AE Services Administration in Configuring IP services - administering the transport link.
    1. In the AE Services Server field, type the name of the AE Services server.

      For example, aeserver1

      Note:

      On the AE Services server you can obtain this name by typing uname -n at the command prompt. The name you use on Communication Manager must match the AE Services server name exactly.

    2. In the Password field, create a password that consists of 12 to 16 alphanumeric characters, for example aespassword1.
      Important:

      This is the password that the AE Services administrator must set on the AE Services server on Communication Manager Interface > Switch Connections > Edit Connection > Switch Password. The passwords must exactly match on both Communication Manager and the AE Services server.

    3. Set the Enabled field to y.
