Network Configuration
The server PC with the Conferencing Center Scheduler application installed should be configured and
tested for TCP/IP networking.
1. We strongly recommend that the Conferencing Center server PC with the Scheduler application
installed is connected to the IP Office Control Unit via a switching LAN hub. If this is not possible,
then the server should be directly connected to the IP Office Control Unit.
2. This server PC must have a fixed IP address. While PC's in a DHCP network may retain the
same IP address between reboots, this is not guaranteed.
If the IP Office is acting as a DHCP server, it defaults to using the address range of
192.168.42.1 to 192.168.42.200 for DHCP clients. This leaves the address range of
192.168.42.201 to 192.168.42.254 for devices that require fixed IP addresses.
General Configuration
Before installing Conferencing Center check the following requirements.
Voicemail Pro.
Conferencing Center can be installed on to a separate server PC from Voicemail Pro. Even
though Voicemail Pro configuration is necessary to make full use of Conferencing Center
features, Conferencing Center communicates with VM Pro via the IP Office Control Unit, not with
VM Pro directly.
Port Settings.
Conferencing Center installs by default to port 25 (for email) and port 80 (to communicate with
the web server). For port details relating to specific Conferencing Center setups, see Setup
Options.
Email
The Conferencing Center server PC with the Web Booking application installed must have at
least one SMTP server defined and available. This is necessary if you plan to use email for
sending conference notifications and voting results to conference hosts.
The License for IP Office Conferencing Center is required.
Switch off any PC and hard disk sleep/power down modes.
