Avaya Aura Presence Services Snap-in Reference
Checklist for deploying a single-server Presence Services cluster
Prerequisites
You must have the following before deploying Presence Services:
-
VMware ESXi installed on a server with a host IP address assigned. For the recommended VMware ESXi version, see Deploying Avaya Breeze® platform or use Avaya Virtualization Platform.
-
Session Manager requires a Listen Port with the Listen Port as 5061, Protocol as TLS, and Default Domain as the login domain of endpoint devices. Without this, PPM will fail for SIP endpoints. For more information, see Administering Avaya Aura® Session Manager.Note:If you want to deploy Avaya Breeze® platform using IPv6, log on to System Manager and go to , and enable the IPv6 field.Ensure that you select the Endpoints check box for the Listen Port. For more information, see
Presence and IM fails on SIP endpoints due to the PPM getHomeCapabilities fault.

This task applies when you deploy Avaya Breeze® platform using IPv6. For example, breeze245211-sm100.aam3.com will resolve IPV6 : fc00:fc00:fc00:245::212. In this example, IP fc00:fc00:fc00:245::212 is the security IP, and security IPV6 is same as security IPV4.
