Enabling Enhanced Vocera Voice Server NIO Tomcat Support

If your Vocera Voice Server has enabled Non-Blocking I/O (NIO) connectivity with Tomcat, you can configure VMP to use it.

This allows more than 2000 simultaneous Vocera Collaboration Suite clients to connect.

Important: When this capability is enabled, Vocera Collaboration Suite clients connect to the Vocera Voice Server on a different port. The connection is on port 8080, unless you have manually edited the VMP Server configuration to use some other port. (Normally, Vocera Collaboration Suite clients connect to the Vocera Voice Server on port 80 if SSL is disabled, or port 443 if SSL is enabled.) This port change could affect connectivity if you are filtering traffic between the wireless VLAN used by VCS clients and the Vocera Voice Server.

To enable enhanced Vocera Voice Server NIO Tomcat support:

  1. Start the VMP Administrator.
  2. Select Configuration > System Options.

    The System Options dialog box appears.

  3. Scroll down to the Integrations > Vocera Voice section.
  4. Set the Enable Enhanced Voice Server NIO Tomcat Feature option to Yes.
  5. Click OK to save your change.
