Using the on-boarding file to modify an existing service

Last Updated : Dec 21, 2012 |

You can use the on-boarding file to configure the SSL VPN service. The on-boarding file contains the settings required to establish a secure tunnel between IP Office and an AVG server. Use this procedure when you have already configured the SSL VPN service on an IP Office system and need to update or modify the SSL VPN configuration.

Perform this procedure from the Avaya IP Office Web Manager interface.

Before you begin

Before you begin, you must have the hardware codes and catalog description of your IP Office system. For example, “IP OFFICE 500 VERSION 2 CONTROL UNIT TAA” is a hardware code and catalog description.

Procedure

  1. Select Tools > On-boarding.

    The On-boarding dialog box displays.

  2. This step is optional. To generate an inventory of your IP Office system, do the following:

    • If the hardware code for your IP Office system ends with the letters TAA, select the checkbox next to the prompt Are you using TAA series hardware?

    • Click Get Inventory File.

  3. Click Modify.

    A browser opens and navigates to the Avaya web site.

  4. Log in to the web site.

    The IP Office Remote Connectivity / Password Management page displays.

  5. Click Existing IP Office SSL VPN Remote Connectivity.
  6. Select Regenerate on-boarding file (existing properties).
  7. Enter the SSL VPN service name and the SSL VPN account name in the appropriate fields.
  8. Click Submit.
  9. Select whether you want to receive the updated on-boarding file by email, or whether you want to download the updated file and follow the prompts on the screen.
  10. When you have either downloaded or received the updated on-boarding file, save it to your local system.
  11. Browse to the location where you saved the on-boarding file and click Upload on the Web Manager interface.

    A message displays to confirm that the on-boarding file has installed successfully.
