An IP Office Shell Server is a single installation of selected IP Office applications running on Linux. You can use Manager to configure and administer a Shell Server. Application Servers and Unified Communications Modules (UCM) run on an IP Office Shell Server.

Since a Shell Server does not provide telephony, when you open a Shell Server configuration in Manager, all telephony functions are disabled. The following Manager functions are supported for Shell Servers:

• Discovery

• Initial configuration utility.

• System status.

• Load, edit and save security settings.

• Load, edit, and save the configuration.

• Erase configuration and security settings.

• Audit trail display.

• Web Control.
