Configuring External Addresses For Public Interfaces - Avaya Equinox Manual

Installing the new streaming and recording server

Configuring external addresses for public interfaces

About this task
To secure the Equinox Streaming and Recording public interfaces, proper certificates have to be
generated. The certificates have to match the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or the IP address
of the machine. Avaya recommends setting the use of FQDNs.
When you configure your system to use FQDNs, they need to be used to register every device with
the Equinox Streaming and Recording Manager.
You must also configure Equinox Streaming and Recording to use external addresses, using the
FQDN, and not the IP address.
Procedure
1. Configure the external address of the delivery node.
a. Type https://<DN FQDN/IP Address>:8445/ in a web browser.
b. Log in to the system using the credentials that you configured when you updated the
default username and password.
c. Click the Network tab.
d. Enter the external address in the External Address (optional) field in the Global
Network Configuration section.
e. Click Submit.
2. Configure the external address for the conference point.
a. Type https://<CP FQDN/IP Address>:8445/ in a web browser.
b. Log in to the system using the credentials that you configured when you updated the
default username and password.
c. Navigate to System Configuration > Network Configuration.
d. Enter the external address in the External Address (optional) field in the Global
Network Configuration section.
You can now optionally enter a DNS name or specific external or internal IP address
that you want to use when communicating with the Equinox Streaming and Recording
Manager. This functionality enables you to enter externally statically mapped IP
addresses and so on. If you leave this field empty then Equinox Streaming and
Recording automatically uses the IP addresses assigned to the operating system
statically or from DHCP. This address is passed to the Equinox Streaming and
Recording Manager when the device registers and is used by the Equinox Streaming
and Recording Manager to access the device. The Equinox Streaming and Recording
Web GUI reports the IP address and other network information and on some of the
Equinox Streaming and Recording devices, you can set the IP address and other key
network settings. This functionality is especially helpful for the systems that are
virtualized to ensure the proper network device IP address set. The CP and DN show
up as one "eth0" virtualized NIC to the host windows machine taking advantage of the
bonded NICS of the host.
