Alcatel OmniPCX Office sys management

[jon24422531]

Our office here in the UK have had Alcatel OmniPCX Office systems for some time. It has been managed remotely at considerable expense, but one of the directors has given us the 'good' news that he has managed to get them to release the password so that I can manage it. Where do I start? I am familiar with telecoms in that I used to install Octel/VMX products for a living, but I know nothing regarding an Alcatel PBX, not even how to connect to it.

We have 4 systems connected over a 2mb leased line 'hub n spoke' network.

I would be grateful for any pointers, web sites etc where I can start the learning process.

Many thanks

Hi Jonathan,

I'm not so hot on these "biscuit tins" myself but I'll help any way I can.
you should have some software called PM5 R200 or OXE 4760i to help admin these things. You can telnet to these box's as well if you know the IP address.
I have some PDF's your welcome to as well.
How can i get them to you ?

Thanks for your reply. We have no software for these as they have been managed by an outside contractor. Is this software available on the web, or is it something like ProComm+ with which I am familiar. I will try the Telnet option, but it will probably require a password which we have not got yet. It may be some time before we get it any way as I think the contractor will not give up this 'cash cow' so easily.

some PDF's will be excellent, thanks
