Unity in a multisite Exchange network
Exchange servers in the same site automatically route messages
and replicate directories. For message routing and directory rep-
lication to occur among Exchange servers at different sites, site
connectors must be set up by a Microsoft Certified System Engi-
neer (MCSE).
If you are installing Unity in a multisite Exchange network in
which site connectors have been set up, the Exchange message
transfer agent will route voice messages automatically, according
to the settings for e-mail. Exchange directories replicate as well.
An MCSE also can set up routing and replication between two
stand-alone voice messaging servers, or set up connectors to
other e-mail systems.
Unity and network operating systems
Although the Unity server must use Windows NT/2000 as an
operating system, it can be connected to a network that uses
another operating system, such as Novell
®
NetWare
®
or UNIX, as
long as the network supports TCP/IP.
