Access Types - Mitel 470 System Manual

Access types

There are the following possibilities to access the communication server with
WebAdmin:
• In the LAN with an Ethernet cable (directly or via a switch)
• Externally via SRM (secure IP remote management)
Note:
External access via dial-up access (ISDN/analogue) is only recommended on some conditions,
for performance reasons.
First access on LAN with System Search
For a first access to the communication server, it is easier if your computer is located
on the same subnet as the PC. If this is not the case, you can also connect the com-
puter directly to the communication server using a LAN cable.
With the auxiliary application System Search (see page 179) the communication
server (and other MiVoice Office 400 series communication servers on the same sub-
net) is searched and displayed. It is advisable to directly deactivate the normally acti-
vated communication server DHCP via System Search and to manually enter a static
IP address, the subnet mask and IP gateway. After login via the standard access (see
"Default user account for initial access", page 182), the data is stored in the communi-
cation server.

If you are setting up an MiVoice Office 400 communication system for the first time, we recom-
mend to you the Getting-started package (see "First steps...", page 38).
Accessing the communication server on the LAN
If the communication server IP address is known, it can be entered directly in the ad-
dress line of a web browser. WebAdmin is started after the access data is entered. The
computer only needs to be located on the same LAN, but not necessarily on the same
subnet.
Accessing the communication server from outside
For remote access to the communication server, we recommend SRM (Secure IP Re-
mote Management) secure IP remote management. For this, you need to install an
SRM agent on your computer with which you can set up a connection to the SRM
server. Thereafter, the SRM server calls the communication server via PSTN and
sends it the connection parameters. The communication server now sets up a secure
connection to the SRM server which switches together them with the connection to the
SRM agent.
