Graphical Administration Interface - Alcatel-Lucent Extended Communication Server Installation & Configuration Manual

Chapter

- Some delegated administrators, who are users that have a limited set of administration
rights. A delegated administrator can access both the Virtual Desktop and the graphical
administration interface limited to some menus.
The administrator and the users access the graphical administration interface or the Virtual
desktop in the same way, using a Web browser. When the user logs on, the Extended
Communication Server serves whether the graphical administration interface or the Virtual
Desktop according to the user identity and password that have been typed in. A delegated
administrator can swap from the Virtual Desktop to the graphical administration interface, or
vice versa, by the means of graphical buttons only available to delegated-administrator profile
users.
Note:
The administrator is not exactly a user as he is not registered in the user database. The administrator
must create a user account for himself if he needs to access the Virtual Desktop.

Graphical Administration Interface

The graphical administration interface access is via a secured connection (https) using any
standard Web browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape Navigator...). The
administrator accesses this interface from the local network or remotely, over the Internet. As
an alternative, he can display the administration interface on a screen connected directly on
the server, together with a keyboard and a mouse.
The administration interface is an easy-to-use tool providing four main menus to manage the
Extended Communication Server, the services, the end-users, and control and monitor the
traffic.
