Administering Paging

Administering Paging

Paging is available in uOne.


Note The tasks presented in this section are required only if you implement Paging
Services.

Two components of Paging administration must be closely coordinated. The first is administration of the Hylafax Paging Server file, pagermap. This file holds information about Paging Providers and their access numbers. Access numbers are the 800 numbers the Paging Server modem dials to connect to a particular Paging Provider. This is how uOne talks to Paging Providers when it wants to send out a page.

The second component is the subscriber's profile, which is stored on the LDAP directory. The profile contains information about the subscriber specific paging information. The information required to communicate with the subscriber's Paging Provider includes the Paging Provider, Pager ID, and Pager PIN. There is other subscriber preference information for single number reach and message notification that determines when the subscriber will be paged.

How Paging Services Work

When the system wants to page a subscriber, the following events occur:

Prerequisites

Before you start administering Paging Services, ensure that the following tasks have been completed:

Refer to the HylaFAX Paging Server documentation for information about adding, modifying and deleting entries in the HylaFAX pagermap file (See Figure 7-1). This documentation can be found at: http://www.vix.com/hylafax/toc.html.


Note Place the longer rules for a provider before the shorter rules for that provider in the pagermap file.

Example of a pagermap file


Adding Paging Services

You perform the following tasks to manage Paging Services:


Note See HylaFAX documentation for information about logging generated by the Paging
Server.

Administering Paging for Notification Services

Perform the following steps to provide the MWI_OnOff application with the information to find the Paging Server. This information is required for Message Notification Paging.

Step 1 Go to the GateServer where the MWI_OnOff application resides

Step 2 Type: cd $PARMLIB/apps/MWI_OnOff

Step 3 Edit the MWI_OnOff.ini files and set the following attributes (Table 7-1).

SNPPuser=
SNPPhost
=
SNPPpw=

SNPPport
=

Editing the pagerData.ini File

The paging provider information in the subscriber profile must match the syntax required by the Paging Server. In order to facilitate this, the pagerData.ini file is available for you to enter the appropriate data once and make it available through a pull down menu in Unified Messaging System Administration (UMSA).

Step 1 Go to the GateServer where the pagerData.ini file resides for UMSA and log in as spmaster.

Step 2 Type:
cd /home2/spmaster/ADMIN/cgi-bin/MSGadmin/MSGdata

Step 3 Edit the pagerData.ini files and set the following attributes (Table 7-2).

[pagingprovider]
numOfOptions=
optionXX=Value, Text string
defaultValue=


Figure 7-2: Example of a pagerData.ini
file


Editing the defaultData.ini File

If you are adding paging to your system, you may want to update the defaultData.ini file to set up the system level defaults for message notification preferences.

Step 1 Go to the GateServer where the defaultData.ini file resides for UMSA and log in as spmaster.

Step 2 Type:
cd /home2/spmaster/ADMIN/cgi-bin/MSGadmin/MSGdata

Step 3 Edit defaultData.ini files and set the following attributes (Table 7-3).

[addNotifyforNewSub]
numOfAttrs=<XX>
attr<YY>=<Value>
referenceAttr=<NotificationMethod>

file

Attribute Description Valid Values

[addNotifyforNewPager]

The section label.

Should not be edited.

numOfAttrs=<XX>

The number of attributes entry can be changed as long as it matches the number of attributes.

XX—A number

attr<YY>=<Value>

Where YY is a numeric value corresponding to its position within the attribute list. There must be no gaps in the numbering of options.

Value describes what message type and urgency will apply to this type of Message Notification (e.g. pager or SMSI)

YY—A number

Value:

Notifyvoicenormal

Notifyvoiceurgent

Notifyfaxnormal

Notifyfaxurgent

Notifyemailnormal

Notifyemailurgent

referenceAttr=
<NotificationMethod>

Notification Method describes the notification method to be used as defined by the attribute list.

This field can be edited, but should not be removed.

NotificationMethod:

pager—sends a page on every message as defined by the attribute list.

cn—sends a SMSI signal on every message as defined by the attribute list.
