Maintenance Web Pages configuration screens
The following list shows the web pages you may need to complete for manual server
configuration of the S8400.
● Set Identities
● Configure Interfaces
● Configure Switches
● Set DNS/DHCP
● Set Static Routes
● Configure Time Server
● Set Modem Interface
● Configure MPC
The following describes each of the configuration pages:
● Set Identities — Use this page to assign Avaya server host names and to assign server
functions to a physical Ethernet interface. The options are pre populated with defaults, but
should be changed as needed for the customer’s configuration. See Ethernet interface
assignments on page 33 for a guide to assigning functions to Ethernet interfaces.
● Configure Interfaces — Use this page to enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway,
and speed for the management LAN and control network.
● Configure Switches — Use this page to specify an IP address and optional SNMP
community strings for any Ethernet adjuncts that the Avaya server controls, that are
connected to the server over a private LAN.
● Set DNS/DHCP — Use this page to enable the different devices (endpoints) in your Avaya
call-processing system to communicate over the corporate LAN. Most corporate networks
have one or more domain name service (DNS) servers that associate an IP address with
the name of a device. When you administer the DNS with the Avaya server names, you
can access the servers by name and by IP address over the corporate network.
● Set Static Routes — Use this page only if the network administrator instructs you. If the
administrator does not specify a particular route for the server to send information over the
network, leave the options blank and click Continue.
● Configure Time Server — Use this page to specify the time source that the Avaya server
uses to set the time of day.
