Installing and Activating Communicator Web Access

Topic Last Modified: 2009-01-23

Before Communicator Web Access (2007 R2 release) is ready to use you must complete the following four steps:

  1. Install the Communicator Web Access software.
  2. Activate the new Communicator Web Access server.
  3. Create at least one virtual server.
  4. Publish the Communicator Web Access URLs to Active Directory.

You can use the Office Communications Server Deployment Wizard to carry out these steps. Alternatively, you can install the server from the command prompt (step 1), then use the command prompt to start the Create Virtual Server Wizard (step 3). However, you cannot fully install, activate, and configure Communicator Web Access from the command prompt, or by using a script or batch file.
