AlphaCom XE - Installation, Configuration & Operation
Getting Started
2
This section is a step-by-step guide to getting the AlphaCom XE system
up and running.
1. Sketch a network overview
2. Unpack and install hardware
3. Perform cold start
4. Connect to AlphaWeb
5. Configure IP Settings
6. Change default user name and password
7. Enter the license key
8. Modify default settings (optional)
9. Perform a system backup
The AlphaCom XE servers are shipped with a default factory setting and
the system will work straight out of the box. If no changes to the default
factory settings are required, it is enough to perform steps 1 to 6 to set
up a working system.
Some changes to the default factory settings are often required, for
instance if the default numbering plan and naming in the directory shall
be updated to reflect the floors in a building, then the optional steps
should also be performed.
