10 AastraLink RP System Administrator Guide
System Overview
Auto-Discovery
All components of the AastraLink RP Solution are designed to be sensed by the
Response Point software automatically on your LAN. Once everything is plugged in
and turned on, setting up and configuring the AastraLink RP Solution is a
straightforward process done on the system administrator’s PC.
Microsoft Response Point Administrator
The Microsoft Response Point Administrator software administers the AastraLink RP
Solution. This software is installed only on the system administrator’s computer, and
controls the basic settings for all individual phone extensions as well as the base unit
and gateway. Using the Administrator, system settings such as the date and time, call-
routing plan, and extension numbers may be configured with ease.
Microsoft Response Point Assistant
The Microsoft Response Point Assistant software is optionally installed on each
phone user’s individual PC. It allows each phone user in the Aastralink RP Solution to
specify individual user preferences such as their nicknames, directory listing,
voicemail options, and call-forwarding settings.
System Deployment Requirements
The Aastralink RP Solution requires all components be connected to the same local
area network (LAN). This includes the AastraLink 500 Base Unit, the AastraLink 540
Gateway, all Aastra RP phones, the system administrator’s PC, and phone users’ PCs
(for the Assistant software).
Microsoft Response Point Administrator and Microsoft Response Point Assistant
require that your computer run one of the following system programs:
• Microsoft Windows XP Professional or Home Edition, with Service Pack 2 (SP2,
32-bit) and the latest security updates
• Microsoft Windows Vista (32-bit) with the latest security updates
• Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2, 32-bit
• Small Business Server 2003 R2, 32-bit
Administrator and Assistant also work with the following programs for adding and
importing contacts:
• Microsoft Office Outlook
• Windows Address Book (for Windows XP)
• Windows Contacts (for Windows Vista)
• Business Contact Manager
AastraLink RP System Administrator Guide 11

Before installing the Response Point software on the system administrator’s PC, all
other components of the AastraLink RP Solution must be installed, plugged in, turned
on (if applicable), and connected to the LAN.
Note: All phones, base units and gateways must be connected to the same LAN in
order for the AastraLink RP Solution to function as designed.
Base Unit

the AastraLink 500 Base Unit Installation Guide or AastraLink RP Solution Quick
Start Guide.

must be turned on for auto-discovery to succeed.
Gateway
The AastraLink RP 540 Gateway should be installed following the instructions given
in the AastraLink 540 Base Unit Installation Guide or AastraLink RP Solution Quick
Start Guide.
The AastraLink RP 540 Gateway may be installed on a desktop, stacked under an
AastraLink RP 500 Base Unit, or wall-mounted.
12 AastraLink RP System Administrator Guide

Response Point Administrator

components you have already powered up and connected to the LAN.

AastraLink RP System Administrator Guide 17
Response Point Assistant
Response Point Assistant
The Microsoft Response Point Assistant software is installed on both the system
administrator’s computer and each phone user’s computer. When you check the boxes
to install Administrator and all other Response Point components on page 14,
Assistant is also installed on your computer. This allows you to access your own
personal phone account as a phone user.
You, as system administrator, must add phones to the system and assign extension
numbers before anyone can log on to the Assistant software. For more information
see System Installation on page 11 and Adding Users on page 19.
Note: If you do not have the Assistant software installed on your computer, see the
AastraLink IP Phone Users Guide for installation instructions.

AastraLink IP Phone Users Guide for more information.
AastraLink RP System Administrator Guide 19
Using Administrator
Using Administrator
The Microsoft Response Point Administrator software is designed to be used by the
local system administrator to configure the AastraLink RP Solution. To install the
Administrator, use the software and documentation CD which came with the
AastraLink RP 500 Base Unit, and the procedure given on page 14. To uninstall the
Administrator, use the Add/Remove Programs option in the Windows control panel.
The Administrator software, once installed, controls all components of the
AastraLink RP Solution. Phone Users are added to the directory contained with
Administrator, and can then be assigned to phones you connect to the network.
Note: Think about keeping a list of the users and extension numbers as you assign
them. This is especially useful when configuring phone models with multiple lines, or
adding users to several phones or user groups.
Adding Users
When you configure a new phone using the Configure Phone Wizard at least one
primary user must be assigned to the new phone. You can also add additional users at
any time on the Phone System page by clicking Add User.
To add a new phone user in Administrator, do the following.
1. Click the Phone System button. In the Tasks pane, under Users, click Add user.
The New User dialog box opens.
2. On the Identification tab, in the User type box, click Person, Group, Job Role, or
Location, as appropriate.
3. In the Name boxes, if you chose the user type Person, type the first and last name,
and optional nicknames and titles of the person who will use this phone. You
should specify nicknames and titles if you think callers will use them when asking
for this user.
20 AastraLink RP System Administrator Guide
Using Administrator
4. If you chose the user type Group, Job Role, or Location, type the applicable
name in the Name box, and type any other names in the Alternate name 1 and
Alternate name 2 boxes.
5. Click OK in the New User dialog box.
Recording User Names
The name you have assigned to a user will be added to the directory and will be the
name callers hear when they ask the Automated Receptionist to speak to a user. The
recorded name can be changed by specifying a different name for the computer-
generated speech, or by recording a sound file of your own through the phone
handset.
The words that the Automated Receptionist will use to confirm a caller's request are
not always the same as the user name or directory entry. For example, a caller may
request to speak to "Ms. Margheim." However, you may want the Automated
Receptionist to say "Diane Margheim" in confirmation, and the user name may be
"Dr. Margheim".
Note: Individual users may also change the spoken name or file used for their name
through the Assistant software.
Using Computer-Generated Speech
Using Administrator you can listen to the computer-generated name for a user or
change the name being spoken.
