Number of deployment nodes

Avaya Aura® Device Services supports single node and multiple node deployments. Use the profile chosen during Session Manager deployment and the number of users you need to support to determine how many nodes you require.

IP addresses and FQDNs

For every N Avaya Aura® Device Services nodes to be deployed, you must have N+1 IP addresses: one address for each node and one virtual IP address.

For example, for deploying 3 nodes, you must have 4 IP addresses: one for each node and one IP for the virtual IP address.

Third-party CA certificates

You must use identity certificates signed by a third-party Certificate Authority if you:

  • Deploy Avaya Aura® Device Services in an environment without Avaya Aura®.

  • Do not want to use identity certificates that System Manager issues in an environment Avaya Aura®.

Avaya Aura® Device Services requires the following four identity certificates:

  • REST interface certificate.

  • OAMP interface certificate.

  • Node certificate for internode communication.

Important:
  • All certificates must contain Subject Alternate Names for the FQDN of the Avaya Aura® Device Services server and the FQDN of the local Avaya Aura® Device Services node.

  • The Common Name of the Node certificate must contain the FQDN of the local Avaya Aura® Device Services node. In a cluster, every Avaya Aura® Device Services node has a different FQDN.

You must also have root and, if used, intermediate third-party CA certificates.
