This chapter describes how to install a VCX Authentication and Directory
Server which runs these services:
Authentication and Directory
■
Common Agent

An Authentication and Directory Server is typically used in regional office
configurations. An Authentication and Directory Server is installed in each
regional office and provides database services for all elements of the VCX
system. To determine where this server can be used in your configuration,
contact your Voice Authorized 3Com Representative.
An Authentication and Directory Server is installed on an IBM X346
machine. The sample configuration scripts in this chapter describes how
to configure a Primary or Secondary Authentication and Directory Server
in a regional office.
CAUTION: Before you configure any server, you must first obtain and
install a valid license key file on that server. If you do not install the
license, many software processes that are critical to the proper operation
of the server cannot start.
