10.46.26.100

10.46.26.101.

To add the IP addresses to the MiCollab trusted network, see Configure Networks.

## Remove Embedded Voicemail from the default template

MiCollab default templates create directory numbers with a mixture of n and n+1 length (1000, 1*000, 10*00) and so forth. This format is incompatible with embedded voice mail.

2. Navigate to the IP address of the MiVoice Business server.

3. Log in (Login ID 'system', Password 'default').
