Installing AIMS

Install AIMS with the aid of the AIMS installation instructions. The instructions are
enclosed with every AIMS package as a Quick Installation Guide on the CD insert
and are also stored as an electronic document on every AIMS CD.

Access Concept

To ensure that the PBX can only be configured with AIMS by authorized person-
nel, access to the PBX in AIMS and in the PBX is password protected. The AIMS
and PBX passwords are administered independently of each other. It is recom-
mended, however, the use the same passwords (the initialization passwords are
the same in the PBX and in AIMS).
9.4.1

Authorization Levels

AIMS keeps a list of AIMS users, complete with respective authorization levels.
When AIMS is started, it checks whether the user's OS (operating system) name
(as of Win 95/98, Win NT 4.0) is listed on the AIMS user list. If so, the user will
have access to whichever AIMS functions correspond to his authorization level. He
can log on to a PBX without having to enter a password. Under Windows 95 it is
possible to start without a password or name. In such cases access to a PBX is pos-
sible only after the user has entered a PBX password.
AIMS has four password-protected authorization levels:
• Attendant
• Installer
• System Manager
• Service Centre
