This installation will install:

• The Voicemail Pro Server (as either an executable program or a service).

• The Voicemail Pro Client.

• Appropriate prompts for the selected installation language.

Voicemail Pro Install

1. If upgrading an existing Voicemail System see Upgrading a Voicemail Pro System.

2. Log on to the server PC using the account under which you intend the Voicemail Pro server or service to run. This account must have full administrator rights to the local PC.

   • We recommend that a new user account called Voicemail is created and given full administrator rights on the PC. This will help identify the accounts purpose.

3. Check that the web server has been installed and is operating correctly. Test that its home page is browseable from other PC's on the customer's network, that is the PC's of users who will want to access campaign messages.

4. Using the IP Office Manager application or IP Office Wizard, check that the correct licenses for Voicemail Pro are installed and show a status of Valid. For Voicemail Pro with Web Campaigns, the licenses required are:

   • Voicemail Pro (4 ports) plus Additional Voicemail Pro (X ports) licenses up to the total number of port required or supported by the IP Office control unit.

5. Insert the Voicemail Pro CD. The installation wizard should auto-start. If it does not auto-start, browse to and run Setup.exe on the CD.
