IP Office Embedded Voicemail
Overview
IP Office Embedded Voicemail is supported on the IP Office Small Office Edition and IP Office 406 V2
control units. Embedded voicemail does not require an IP Office license. It provides basic voicemail
mailbox operation without requiring a permanent voicemail server PC. It also provides multiple auto-
attendant support for incoming calls.
Embedded voicemail uses the following components:

Memory Card
The type and capacity depends on the memory card of the IP Office control unit. However, in all
cases, the cards are specially formatted for embedded voicemail use. Alternate third-party
memory cards are not supported for embedded voicemail.

IP Office IP406 V2 Control Unit
Uses an Avaya supplied 512MB Type II Compact Flash memory card. Provides up to 15
hours of uncompressed message storage. The card slots into the C/F TII slot on the front
of the control unit.

IP Office Small Office Edition
Uses an Avaya supplied 64MB Compact Flash memory card within a PCMCIA card
carrier. Provides up to 10 hours of compressed message storage. The PCMCIA card
carrier slots into either of the PCMCIA slots on the back of the control unit.

Voice Compression Channels
Messages and prompts stored on the Small Office Edition memory card are compressed using
the IP Office control unit's voice compression channels. Thus voice compression channels are
required during any voicemail accesses. It is important to note that the same voice compression
channels are also used for VoIP calls.

IP Office Small Office Edition
On the Small Office Edition, voice compression channels are pre-built into the control unit.
Small Office Edition control units are available in 3 channel and 16 channel variants. An
existing Small Office Edition control unit cannot be upgraded to add further voice
compression channels.

IP Office 406 V2 Control Unit
Does not require or use voice compression channels for embedded voicemail.

IP Office Manager Application
During installation, connection to a PC running the IP Office Manager application is required. This
is required for IP Office configuration and occasionally for TFTP transfer of the prompt files.
Note that Embedded Voicemail cannot be used in conjunction with Voicemail Lite or Voicemail Pro. The
presence of a running Voicemail Lite or Pro server on the same network may cause Embedded
Voicemail to fail.
