Warning:
Host PLDS ID Field (!): For a virtualized server, fields marks with a ! symbol are used to generate the server's Host PLDS ID. Changing, this value changes that ID. If that ID has been used to generate local (nodal) PLDS licenses, those licenses become invalid. This does not affect WebLM (centralized) PLDS licenses. Refer to the manual "Deploying Avaya IP Office Servers as Virtual Machines" for further details.
Important:
Security Certificate Field (*): Fields marked with a * symbol are used as part of the default security certificate generated by the server. If changed, the server generates a new default certificate, during which time access to the server is disrupted for several minutes. In addition, any applications using the certificate need to be updated with the new certificate.
Settings
Description
Network Interface
This drop down allows selection of network interfaces for which the settings are shown. Within the IP Office configuration, Eth0 matches LAN1, Eth1 matches LAN2.
Host Name ! *
Sets the host name that the IP Office Server Edition should use. This setting requires the local network to support a DNS server. Do not use localhost.
  • For internal use, this value must be reachable by DNS within the customer network. If also supporting external client connections, it needs to be reachable by external DNS. Consult with the customer's IT support to ensure the name is acceptable and that routing to it has been configured correctly. External access must also include a firewall and/or SBC.
Use DHCP ! *
If selected, the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway information is obtained by the server making DHCP requests. The related fields are greyed out and cannot be set manually, instead they show the values obtained in response to the DHCP request.
IP Address ! *
Displays the IP address set for the server. If not using DHCP, you can edit the field to change the setting.
Subnet Mask
Displays the subnet mask applied to the IP address. If not using DHCP, you can edit the field to change the setting.
Default Gateway
Displays the default gateway settings for routing. If not using DHCP, you can edit the field to change the setting.
System DNS
Enter the address of the primary DNS server. This option is greyed out if the address of the DNS server is set to be obtained from the DHCP server (see below).
Automatically obtain DNS from provider
This setting is only used if Use DHCP is also selected. If selected, the server attempts to obtain DNS server details from the DHCP server.
Create Subinterface
This setting is only used if Use DHCP is also selected. If selected, the server attempts to obtain DNS server details from the DHCP server.
Delete Subinterface
Delete the subinterface.
