Topic Last Modified: 2009-07-11

After you install Office Communications Server 2007 R2, you must configure the server to enable user access and create the server pool.

To configure Office Communications Server Standard Edition

  1. Log on to the Standard Edition server as a member of the RTCUniversalServerAdmins group or with equivalent user rights.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Insert the Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 CD, and then click Standard Edition.
    • If you are installing from a network share, browse to the \setup\amd64\ folder on the network share, and then double-click setupSE.exe.
  3. In the deployment tool, click Deploy Standard Edition Server.
  4. At Configure Server, click Run.
  5. On the Welcome to the Configure Pool/Server Wizard page, click Next.
  6. On the Server or Pool to Configure page, select the server from the list, and then click Next.
  7. On the SIP domains page, verify that your SIP domain appears in the list. If it does not, click the SIP domains in your environment box, type your SIP domain, and then click Add. Repeat these steps for all other SIP domains that the Standard Edition server will support.
  8. Click Next.
  9. On the Client Logon Settings page, click Some or all clients will use DNS SRV records for automatic logon. If this server or pool will also be used to authenticate and redirect requests for automatic sign-in, then select the Use this server or pool to authenticate and redirect automatic client logon requests check box.
  10. Click Next.
  11. If in the previous step, you selected Some or all clients will use DNS SRV records for automatic logon, on the SIP Domains for Automatic Logon page, select the check box for the domains that will be supported by the server for automatic sign-in, and then click Next. Otherwise, skip to the next step.
  12. On the External User Access Configuration page, do one of the following:
    • If you deployed your Edge Servers and configured all of the necessary settings as described in Walkthrough: Deploying Edge Server, click Configure for external user access now. For details about completing this portion of the wizard, see Walkthrough: Deploying Edge Server.
    • If you did not deploy any Edge Servers, click Do not configure for external user access now.
  13. When you are finished, click Next.
  14. On the Ready to Configure Server or Pool page, review the settings that you specified, and then click Next to configure the Standard Edition server.
  15. When the files are installed and the wizard is complete, select the View the log when you click Finish check box, and then click Finish.
  16. In the log file, verify that <Success> appears under the Execution Result column, look for <Success> Execution Result at the end of each task to verify that the Standard Edition server configuration completed successfully and then close the log window.
