These are the steps you should follow when troubleshooting System OAI. For best
results, perform the steps in order, one at a time. Never change more than one variable
at a time when troubleshooting hardware.
•
Verify that you can see system call activity. This is the easiest way to determine
that System OAI is being received by the Console.
•
Verify that System OAI Events and System OAI Third Party Call Control Pre-
mium Features are enabled on all nodes for the Axxess system or you have the
Premium Features Licensing for the Inter-Tel 5000 system.

on the computer. To determine if TCP/IP is installed on your computer, check
with your Network Administrator.
Refer to the telephone system's Installation and Maintenance Manual for more infor-
