System Settings, Defaults, Clusters, and Active Directory Authentication
This section describes how to set systemwide settings and defaults, configure and
maintain clusters, and set up Active Directory
authentication.
System Settings
The System screen of the Administration Console specifies default settings for the entire Vocera Communications System.
Updating Server Properties Manually
You can update system properties manually in the properties.txt file to enable or disable certain features.
Setting System Defaults
Defaults are Vocera system settings that apply to users at all sites, such as the greeting used by the Genie or the ring tone used to announce a call.
Configuring and Managing Clusters
Use the Cluster Setup page of the System screen to configure and manage a Vocera Voice Server cluster. Vocera supports up to four machines in a cluster.
Configuring Active Directory Authentication
The Active Directory page of the Administration Console configures Active Directory authentication, which lets Vocera users log in using their network credentials.
