Avaya: How to Log-in and Connect to Your IP Office System
The Avaya IP Office
Manager, Avaya’s best selling phone system, has been a
go to phone system for small to mid-sized businesses. With plenty of existing Avaya
IP Office PBX systems in operation and Avaya now remerged from bankruptcy and back in operation, there will be more. Many IT admin employees
find themselves in the role as the phone administrator, needing to make system
changes and MAC (moves, adds and changes), and normal every day programming changes. Saving money
from your budget for other items is helpful, because having to
call a phone vendor for every small change is costly and burdensome. The
instructions below should be helpful when connecting up to administer your IP
Office system through the Avaya IP Office Manager software. You can download the
Admin Lite software below.
Default passwords for both the Username and Password are Administrator and good practice should always require a change from these for security purposes. If they have already been changed, hopefully someone in your company has been given the correct information, which they should have been, as defaulting a system for lack of access for not knowing the correct login credentials is not something one has to go through, however it can be done.
