Deploy Client with MiVoice Business or MiVoice Business Express

The deployment procedure that you used depends on if MiCollab Client is configured in Integrated Mode or in Co-located Mode. Note that MiVoice Business Express only supports MiCollab Client in Integrated Mode.

MiCollab Client in Integrated Mode

To deploy MiCollab for Mobile Clients with MiVoice Business or MiVoice Business Express:

  1. Define deployment configuration and configure MiCollab Client Deployment.

  2. Purchase and install SSL Web Server Certificate.

  3. Add connections to MBGs.

  4. Add profiles.

  5. Run the Diagnostic test to:

    • confirm the connection to the Redirect Server, and

    • validate that the MiCollab Clients on the public Internet can reach the MiCollab Client Deployment service.

  6. Customize deployment email.

  7. Add the MiCollab Client for Mobile softphone user through the Users and Services application:

    • Log into the MiCollab server manager.

    • Under Applications, click Users and Services.

    • Click Quick Add.

    • Select the default UCC (Vx.0) Premium role or create a custom role and template from the Premium template. The template must have a Teleworker license and the MiCollab Client Feature Profile must be licensed for Mobile SIP Softphone.

      When you add Teleworker service to a user's device, the system automatically configures a corresponding SIP service on the MiVoice Border Gateway. Note the following:

      • The system sets the Set-side username on the MiVoice Border Gateway to <username-DN> (for example smithj-7328).

      • You must set the password field in the template to "Use Random Password" or "Use This Value. If you select "Use This Value", the password value must be a strong password.

        Note:

        The user will be deployed with the default deployment profile. If you want to use a custom default profile, create a custom template from the Premium template and select the desired profile in the template.

    • Enter the user’s first and last name.

    • Enter the user’s primary e-mail address.

    • Under Other Phone, enter the extension number.

    • Click Save.

    • The user downloads the client from the store and scans the code in the deployment e-mail with their cell phone to initiate activation. The MiCollab for Mobile Client deployment configuration is downloaded to the user's cell phone.

MiCollab Client in Co-located Mode

To deploy MiCollab for Mobile Clients with MiVoice Business (not applicable to MiVoice Business Express):

    • validate that the MiCollab Clients on the public Internet can reach the MiCollab Client Deployment service.

      • The system sets the SIP username on the MiVoice Border Gateway to (username_DN) (for example smithj_7328).
      • You must set the password field in the template to "Use Random Password" or "User This Value. If you select "User This Value", the password value must be a strong password.
