# Configure Advanced UM Parameters

Advanced UM can also be configured from the Text console; however, it is not possible to configure Advanced UM from both consoles simultaneously.

Ensure that you have filled out the Advanced Parameters worksheet before you begin configuration.

## Configuration

To configure Advanced UM Parameters:

1. From the navigation tree, under Unified Messaging, click Advanced UM.

2. The Advanced UM Configuration screen appears.

3. On the NuPoint tab, enter the following information from your worksheet:

- Administrator Login

- Administrator Password

- Mailbox Poll Interval (in minutes or hours)

- Permanent Delete (True or False)

- Sender Domain

Note: If the Administrator Password is changed, you must update this field to show the new password.

4. On the Mail Servers tab, enter the following information from your worksheet:

- Mail Connection Properties:

- - Unread Mail Poll Interval

  - Read Mail Poll Interval

  - Mail Server Timeout

  - Maximum Concurrent Connections

- Mail Server Connections:

- - Mail Server Type - Microsoft Exchange, Google Apps, Office 365

  - Adapter Type - This field defaults to "IMAP" if the Mail Server Type is Google Apps, or Office 365

  - Secure IMAP - True or False

  - Superuser account name - IMAP or MAPI superuser account name.

  - Superuser password - IMAP or MAPI superuser password.

  - Port No. / Hosted Exchange - If your implementation has a Microsoft Exchange server in a hosted environment, you can use these fields to specify a non-default IMAP inbound connector port up to five digits in length. This port number must also be configured on the Exchange server. For configuration details, see the Advanced Parameters Worksheet.

  - IP Address - This field defaults to "imap.gmail.com" if the Mail Server Type is Google Apps and "outlook.office365.com" if the Mail Server Type is Office 365. Hostnames must be resolvable by the corporate DNS server defined in MSL. If a connection is being made to a Client Access Server (CAS), enter the address of the CAS in place of the mail server address. Note that either a load balancer or an Exchange server can function as a CAS.

4. Notes:

1. - To take advantage of Secure IMAP, you must enter the correct authentication settings in the Exchange Server. For details, see IMAP Setup for Exchange Server.

   - If you are using MAPI, you can enter IP addresses for up to six MAPI Gateways using the numbered entries.

   - Office 365 cannot be configured to use a MAPI Gateway.

5. On the LDAP tab, enter the following information from your worksheet:

- LDAP Server Address

- LDAP Administrator DN

- LDAP Login Password

- LDAP Search Base

Notes:

1. - LDAP is not available for Google Apps.

   - LDAP DN syntax refers to the creation of a Distinguished Name, which is a series of name components forming a unique identifier, similar to a path to a file. The abbreviations cn and dc refer to Common Name and Domain Component, respectively. For more information about LDAP, refer to the Microsoft TechNet Library at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/.

   - This account is used to perform queries, not updates. As such, it only requires "read" access to the database. It does not require administrative rights with "read/write" access.

6. On the Mail Servers or LDAP tab, click Verify Connection to test your configuration settings.

Note: The Verify Connection function detects only one error at a time.

7. Click Save. The system validates your input and, when all parameters are validated successfully, a confirmation box appears indicating that the Advanced UM server must be restarted for your changes to be applied.

8. Click OK.

Note: Restarting the Advanced UM server may cause an interruption to Advanced UM service. Voice mail ports are not affected.
