Enhanced-List Application
Enhanced-List Application
The Enhanced-List Application (ELA) greatly expands your business’ capability
to deliver messages to large numbers of recipients. A single enhanced list can
contain 1500 addresses and you – the system administrator – can create up to
100 such lists. Enhanced lists can be nested (or embedded) in each other, that
is, a list (containing 1500 addresses) can be a member contained in another list.
By doing so, your users can record a message, address it to the parent
enhanced list, and send it to nearly 150,000 people – just as easily as if the
message were being sent to a person 1 desk away.
All users administered in AUDIX (including e-mail and remote users) can send
messages to the recipients on enhanced lists, or you can administer your system
to only allow selected users in your AUDIX network access to the enhanced lists.
ELA has the following characteristics:
■
Up to 1500 recipients can be contained in an enhanced list (compared to
250 addresses in a standard AUDIX mailing list.)
■
■
Up to 100 enhanced lists can be created on an INTUITY AUDIX machine
Nesting (embedding an enhanced list within another Enhanced List)
enables a total recipient population of nearly 150,000
■
■
Changes in an enhanced list propagate to all lists that refer to the
changed list
Access to enhanced lists from anywhere within the AUDIX network
(standard AUDIX mailing lists are only accessible to those users with
mailboxes on the same machine as the lists)
■
■
Delivery to local and remote AUDIX users, administered e-mail users, and
remote AMIS pre-administered users
Cross-domain delivery from an e-mail trusted server to AUDIX. This
enables administered e-mail users to access the Enhanced Lists
What ELA Can Do for You
ELA can:
■
Distribute messages to a targeted audience.
You can create a list of people that you send messages to frequently.
Then, you can send them all the same message by entering one
enhanced-list address.
■
Centralize messages into one AUDIX mailbox.
First select one office as your primary location. Then create an enhanced
list at each secondary location that has, as its only member, the number of
your primary office location. When a mailbox at a secondary location
receives a message, ELA puts it into the mailbox for the primary office.

ELA Administration
■
Forward messages to support staff automatically.
If you often forward incoming messages, you can create an enhanced-list
mailbox that automatically forwards messages to your staff. Your staff can
review the messages and then respond to them as they normally would.
ELA Administration
Only the system administrator (sa) login can administer enhanced lists.
Basic Concepts
To understand ELA, you first need to understand some concepts and
terminology, such as trusted servers and domains.
A trusted server is a computer or a software application in a domain outside of
INTUITY AUDIX that uses its own login and password to launch an IMAPI session
and access AUDIX mailboxes. The ELA software, acting as a trusted server, can
access and manipulate an AUDIX message just as the AUDIX application does.
For the purposes of ELA, a domain is a logical boundary defined by the
application. INTUITY AUDIX voice/fax mail messaging is one domain, and ELA is
another domain. The two domains are linked together to allow messages to be
distributed between domains.
For a complete discussion and definition of trusted server and domain, see your
INTUITY Messaging Solutions Release 4 Administration book.
Planning with Professional Services
ELA is a separately purchasable feature that incurs a Right-to-Use (RTU) fee.
ELA requires some solid planning to ensure your system makes effective use of
the feature. You can contract with Professional Services to work with you to plan
and administer ELA, or you can do the planning and administration yourself
using ELA worksheets that your account representative provides. In either case,
the result of that planning is completed ELA worksheets that you will use as you
proceed to implement ELA.
ELA also requires some AUDIX Administration, as well as administration of the
ELA server itself.

The next section highlights the planning considerations for implementing ELA.
Things to Consider
ELA is a powerful messaging tool that can distribute large quantities of
messages. The following section discusses various planning considerations that
should be addressed to ensure effective implementation and use of ELA.
ELA Message Delivery
We recommend that you schedule delivery for large enhanced lists during
off-peak hours.
ELA can deliver up to 100 messages a minute. However, during peak traffic
hours, your system also processes other user-generated messages. ELA
intentionally slows delivery of messages to large enhanced lists during peak
traffic so your system can continue to process these other messages.

ELA Administration
Hardware/Software Requirements
ELA runs on the same machine as AUDIX.
■
ELA must be installed on a Lucent INTUITY R4.2-4 or higher machine. If
your site has an earlier release, contact your Lucent service representative
to obtain the necessary upgrade. ELA is not available for pre-R4 Lucent
INTUITY systems.
■
MAP/40s machines require 64k of RAM.
LAN Impact
If your configuration includes a LAN, planning ELA implementation should
involve your PC/LAN administrator(s) to ensure that AUDIX and the network are
not adversely affected. The amount of LAN traffic on your system from ELA
messages could increase if ELA will be sending messages for delivery to an
e-mail or Message Manager recipient or to TCP/IP-networked remote machines.
If none of these are valid for your site, ELA will not cause any LAN traffic.
See Chapter 6 in your INTUITY Messaging Solutions Release 4 Administration
book:
■
If your site has e-mail, to calculate some initial traffic estimates
■
If your site has Message Manager, to calculate some initial traffic
estimates
Remote Message Impact
If your site is networked, estimate the increase in the amount of remote traffic by
first determining the percent of current traffic that is remote and calculating the
number of messages/minute that percent represents. When ELA is actively
sending messages, add that number of messages to the traffic estimate for
remote message delivery.
NOTE:
For typical applications of ELA, the increase in messaging traffic can be
negligible.

Enhanced-List Application
Port Usage Impact
Voice port usage increases as recipients retrieve messages sent by ELA. Plan for
the increase with Professional Services when you purchase ELA. Refer to the
worksheets that were compiled at the time of the purchase to determine the port
usage impact.
You should monitor your system to determine if your Grade of Service (GOS) falls
below acceptable levels. If that happens frequently, particularly during the peak
busy hour, contact your Lucent account representative to purchase more ports, if
necessary. For more information about GOS and monitoring your system, see
your INTUITY Messaging Solutions Release 4 Administration book.
NOTE:
If, in its application, ELA degrades service, you might suggest that those
users with access to enhanced lists schedule delivery of ELA messages for
off-peak hours, for example, at 10:00 p.m. or 4:00 a.m. That way, delivery of
messages will not conflict with other user-generated traffic.
Security
Securing a system that allows access from another domain involves a 2-pronged
approach. You must consider security from both an internal and an external
perspective. External security involves administration to prevent access from an
unauthorized source, such as an e-mail or AMIS-Analog message originator that
decides to send “mail bombs” to an Enhanced List. Internal security focuses on
preventing, or recovering from, damage if a breach occurs, for example, a virus
is transmitted in a message component such as an attached software file.
For an in-depth discussion and definition of such terms as trusted server and
domain, see your INTUITY Messaging Solutions Release 4 Administration book.
External Security
A new option — the trusted server — has been introduced in this release. The
ELA application runs as a trusted server, making requests of the AUDIX server,
via IMAPI, to distribute messages to designated recipients. The trusted server is
empowered to do anything to an ELA mailbox that an AUDIX user can do.
To prevent unauthorized access to AUDIX from an external source such as a
trusted server, system administrators have two levels of security at their disposal:
■
Trusted server password
IMAPI password
■
The trusted server password is administered on both the AUDIX server and on
the trusted server. The trusted server must use this password when it connects to
AUDIX.

Issue 1 July 1997

ELA Administration
The IMAPI password is an optional, secondary level of security used to prevent
an unauthorized source external to AUDIX from starting an IMAPI session. We
strongly recommend that you take advantage of this extra protection.
If you choose to administer an IMAPI password, we recommend that you change
it on a regular basis, for example, monthly. (If you have set your administrator’s
password to age automatically, the system prompts you to change your
password. You can use this prompt to remind you to change the IMAPI password
as well.)
NOTE:
If you change an IMAPI password in AUDIX, all trusted servers must be
administered with the new IMAPI password. For example, if your INTUITY
AUDIX R4 supports an e-mail server, the e-mail administrator must also
administer the e-mail trusted server to reflect the new IMAPI password.
In addition to trusted server security, there is the possibility that an administered
e-mail or remote AMIS Analog user could use an ELA mailbox in an unauthorized
manner. One example is to send “mail bombs” to an Enhanced List. Mail bombs
are harassing messages that do not serve your business needs, and impose
unnecessary traffic on your system. ELA mailboxes are no more vulnerable to
unauthorized use than other voice mailboxes. However, the impact on system
performance can be many times greater than the potential for harassment when
sending messages to an individual mailbox. Sending to an enhanced list that
forwards a message to 1500 recipients will obviously have much farther reaching
consequences than that of a handful of messages sent to individual mailboxes.
To prevent unauthorized access to an ELA mailbox from an external source such
as e-mail users or remote AMIS Analog users, you can place those users in a
community with sending restrictions. See:
■
information about administering ELA community sending restrictions
■
“Setting Up Community Sending Restrictions” in Chapter 3 of your INTUITY
Messaging Solutions Administration guide for information about the
implications of administering Community IDs
Internal Security
INTUITY AUDIX R4 allows the transmission of 2 new message components, text
(originating from Message Manager or e-mail) and binary file attachments
(software files, such as a spreadsheet or word processing file). With these new
components come new security considerations, namely, the inadvertent delivery
of a virus that may be embedded in a file attachment. This can occur in any
system that supports the delivery of software files. While the AUDIX machine
Issue 1 July 1997

Enhanced-List Application
cannot be infected with viruses embedded in these software files, client
machines may become infected when a user launches the application
associated with the software file.
!
CAUTION:
ELA does not perform any virus detection. Your company should evaluate
the security risks of file attachments carefully and make provisions for virus
detection software on PCs running Message Manager or an e-mail
application supported by INTUITY AUDIX R4.
At a minimum, you should advise your users that file attachments should be
detached (not launched) and scanned for viruses before use.
IMAPI Session Requirements
An IMAPI session is invoked when an e-mail trusted server, Message Manager,
or the ELA trusted server needs to communicate with the AUDIX server. The
AUDIX server must have a sufficient number of IMAPI sessions administered to
provide adequate access for all IMAPI requests. Additionally, the ELA server
must be registered as an AUDIX trusted server.
Shadow Mailbox
The shadow mailbox is a special mailbox that ELA uses to distribute messages.
The use of a shadow mailbox prevents replies to ELA-delivered messages from
being sent back to the entire Enhanced List. However, you can administer
enhanced lists such that recipients can reply to the person who originally sent
the message. The shadow mailbox must belong to a community that cannot
receive messages.

some ELA mailboxes with call answer capability, you do not need to
create two Classes of Service. Administer the ELA COS to be call
answer, but only administer the ELA mailbox extension as a number
on the switch if/when you decide to allow call answer messages to
be distributed to the members of that Enhanced List.

Setting Up ELA and Shadow Mailbox
Community IDs
The following task contains instructions that directly relate to ELA. “Setting Up
Community Sending Restrictions” in Chapter 3 of your INTUITY Messaging
Solutions Administration guide discusses the purpose and implementation of
Community IDs in more detail.
Things to Consider
ELA mailing lists are a powerful messaging tool that all users in your AUDIX
network can access. However, should your business needs indicate differently,
you can control who can use the enhanced lists by administering community
sending restrictions. Figure 3-4 illustrates a typical application of sending
restrictions for ELA and this application of sending restrictions is used as a basis
for the following discussion.
Community 9
Subscribers with enhanced
list privileges
Community 11
ELA Shadow Mailbox
Community 10
Community 1
Enhanced-List Mailboxes
General Subscribers

Administering AUDIX for ELA
Let’s say you set up the enhanced-list mailbox community to be Community 10.
Community 10 is given permission to send to all other communities (except the
shadow mailbox community). Then, you set up a special user community,
Community 9, and administer Community 9 to send to all communities (except
the shadow mailbox community). Only users you would like to have access to the
enhanced lists are placed into Community 9. All other users would not be able to
send a message to the ELA mailbox.
Additionally, you must set up a shadow mailbox community ID, for example
Community 11. The shadow mailbox community ID is administered such that
messages can be sent to any community, but messages cannot be received
from any other community. You do this so replies from pre-Release 4 Lucent
INTUITY machines or from DEFINITY AUDIX and AUDIX R1 machines do not go to
the shadow mailbox.
Also, you will have to administer the rest of your user population to belong to a
community restricted from sending messages to the enhanced-list mailbox
community, for example, the default Community 1.
NOTE:
If your AUDIX system is networked with other Lucent INTUITY systems, all
enhanced-list mailbox community sending restrictions must be consistently
applied throughout the system, that is, the same Community ID numbers
administered with the same restrictions. In particular, the shadow mailbox
community must not be accessible by any other community on any
machine in the network.
Before You Begin
Before you begin the following procedure, use the display system-parameters
sending restrictions command in AUDIX administration and ensure that you have
at least two Communities that you can use for ELA (4 communities are needed if
you are going to implement a special community for selected users with access
to ELA mailboxes.)

individuals who will belong to the new special community with access to
Enhanced Lists.

Administering TCP/IP
Administering TCP/IP
If your system is already connected to the LAN, you can skip this procedure.
However, you need to know the IP Address to administer the trusted server, so —
write down your system’s IP address.
TCP/IP is a set of protocols that links computers across a wide variety of
networks. TCP/IP must be administered for the ELA trusted server to
communicate with AUDIX.
Before You Begin
You will need to know the:
■
■
■
■
Network IP address
Host Identifier (AUDIX server name)
Subnet mask
Gateway Identifier (ID) to administer TCP/IP
Your PC/LAN system administrator should have this information.
!
CAUTION:
Administering TCP/IP requires that you stop and restart the voice
messaging software. Plan to do this procedure at a time when your
business can tolerate some down time on your AUDIX system.
To administer TCP/IP Networking:

NOTE:
Write this IP address down, as you will need it when you administer
the ELA trusted server later in this section.
4. Enter the subnet mask in the Subnet Mask:field.
The subnet mask is used to determine which bytes of the IP address
specify the network and host addresses. This is an optional field. If there is
no entry for this field on your worksheet, leave the field blank. The system
will automatically use a default.
NOTE:
The default value may conflict with your LAN configuration. Check

book for instructions.
Setting Up IMAPI Sessions for
Trusted Server Access
Whenever a trusted server accesses an AUDIX mailbox, it uses an IMAPI
session. IMAPI is the software that allows access to INTUITY AUDIX mailboxes.
Depending on what INTUITY model you purchased, there can be up to 96 active
sessions simultaneously, some of which you need to set for trusted server use.
NOTE:
IMAPI sessions cannot be reserved for use by ELA. The following
procedure administers the maximum number of IMAPI sessions you will
allow trusted servers to use simultaneously, but does not guarantee that an
IMAPI session will be available. You should monitor ELA trusted server
activity to see if trusted server requests for IMAPI sessions are frequently
being denied because all sessions are in use (see your INTUITY Messaging
Solutions Release 4 Administration book). If so, you may need to purchase
more IMAPI sessions.
To set IMAPI sessions for trusted server use:

Defining Two ELA Trusted Servers
The ELA software runs as two separate trusted servers. For the ELA servers to
communicate with the INTUITY AUDIX server, they must be defined to the INTUITY
AUDIX system. The installation worksheets you received from your account
representative will have the exact names for the ELA trusted servers. However,
for the purposes of this document, the first ELA trusted server will be referred to
as the administrative server and the second ELA trusted server as the delivery
server.
A request from ELA to send a message to an AUDIX mailbox involves invoking an
IMAPI session and locking the ELA mailbox. A server that uses IMAPI to access
an AUDIX mailbox is known as a trusted server.
!
SECURITY ALERT:
The procedures in this section include setting a password the trusted
server must use to access AUDIX. There is a secondary layer of security (in
addition to a trusted server password) that you can administer. This
additional layer of security involves setting a separate IMAPI password that
the trusted server must use before the system will allow an IMAPI session to
be invoked.
While administration of this additional password is optional, it is strongly
recommended. See your INTUITY Messaging Solutions Release 4
Administration book.
Before You Begin
Before adding the ELA trusted server to the system, you will need the following
information:
■
Two unique 1- to 10-printable character server names for the ELA trusted
servers. These server names must be unique, not only from each other,
but from all other machines in the network (including fax call delivery
machines). Use the li ma and li tr commands to view all machines
currently in your network.
Additionally, the server names must comply with the guidelines for naming
machines your INTUITY Messaging Solutions Release 4 Administration
book for complete information on naming conventions).

3. In the Trusted-Server Name:field, enter a name for the first ELA trusted
server. (See the Note below for tips on trusted server names.)
This name must be a unique 1- to 10-printable character entry.
Additionally, this name cannot start with a number and cannot contain any
embedded spaces, for example, denver 1 is not allowed, but denver_1 is
allowed. (Use the li tr and li ma commands to view existing names and
ensure that you are not using a name that is already assigned.)
NOTE:
You must administer two ELA trusted servers. The installation
worksheets should have the ELA trusted server names. If not, we
recommend that you use names that are descriptive enough that you
can tell them apart, for example, enter the first ELA trusted server
name as ela_admin and, when you add the second ELA trusted
server, use ela_deliv.
4. Enter a 5- to 10-alphanumeric password that the trusted server must use
to log on to the AUDIX server. As you type, your keystrokes display, but
will appear as a series of asterisks ( ) after you save.

Every ELA server will have the same service name. (For example, if you
have two ELA servers, they will have separate trusted server names, but
the same service name.)
7. Enter n in the Cross-Domain Delivery?field.

Guidelines for Naming Enhanced Lists
We recommend that you use the following guidelines when you name an
enhanced list. These guidelines can help prevent users from inadvertently
sending their messages to the enhanced list, instead of to a person.
■
Do not use embedded spaces in the name. If you would like a list to be
called Marketing Department, type it Marketing_Department_LIst.
■
Avoid naming an enhanced list after a person. INTUITY Message Manager
does not differentiate between an enhanced list and a person’s name.
Examples of names to avoid:
— Jane_Doe
— Doe_Jane

■
Give enhanced lists names that reflect an organization or a function.
Include the word list.
Examples:
— Marketing_Dept_List
— Maxfield_List
— Western_District_Salesforce_List
If you want all enhanced lists to be grouped together, put the word list first.
Examples:

Recording Names for Enhanced Lists
Once you have established an enhanced list, is a good idea to record a name for
the list. That way, users will hear a meaningful name for the list when they send a
message to an enhance- list mailbox for distribution. However, you need to
record the name using an administrative recording session.
To record a name for an enhanced list:
1. From a touch-tone telephone, log in as an administrator.

2. Press
.
The system prompts with “To record names, press 4.”
NOTE:
If you get an error message, open the Class of Service screen for the
administrator’s extension and change the Announcement
Control?field to y. Then start again.

3. Press
.
The system prompts with “Please enter the extension and pound sign.”
4. Enter the extension for the enhanced-list mailbox.
The system prompts with “When finished recording, press pound to
approve or 1 to edit your message. Record at the tone.”
5. After the tone, speak the name of the list.
#
6. Press
.
7. Repeat Steps 4 through 6 to record additional names.
8. Press *r to return to the main menu.
!
CAUTION:
You should also record a name for the Shadow mailbox, using the
same procedure. Use a name such as, “Mailing list - Do not reply.”
That way, anyone who inadvertently enters the Shadow mailbox
extension, will not to try to send a message to it or to reply to a
message from it.

Overview
This section describes how to check for system alarms relating to ELA and how
to diagnose common application and end-user problems.
Checking the Administrator’s Log
The system warns you of potential administrative problems with ELA by
displaying a minor and warning message (Alarms: wor Alarms: m) on the
AUDIX Administration status line when it logs an administration event. Check the
status line (at the top of the AUDIX Administration screen) at least once a day.
Other events besides those generated by ELA create administrative log entries,
but you can view ELA-specific events. You should do this on a regular basis to
monitor ELA performance. To view ELA-specific log entries:
1. Starting from the main menu, select:
> AUDIX Administration
2. At the enter command: prompt, enter either:
Full Command Version
Short Command Version
display administrators-log
di ad
The system displays the Administrator’s Log screen.
3. Enter the starting date and time.
4. Enter EL in the Application:field.

Event ID: ELA-shadow06
Alarm Level:
Warning
Description:
The shadow mailbox is full of messages for recipients who
have full mailboxes. ELA cannot deliver these messages
until the recipients make space in their mailboxes. Also,
AUDIX can take up to two weeks to determine that a
message is undeliverable and to generate a log entry for a
delivery failure.
Repair Action:
You can correct single instances of this problem by deleting messages from the
shadow mailbox. To access the shadow mailbox:
1. In AUDIX Administration enter ch su extension for the enhanced-list
mailbox.
2. At the Subscriber screen, enter a new password in the Password:field.
Remember this password for step 5 below.
ENTER
3. Press (F3)
to save the password.
4. At the enter command:enter exit
5. Use Message Manager to log into the shadow mailbox.
6. Open the Outgoing folder and delete messages that have been
rescheduled for delivery to full mailboxes. Keep deleting messages until
the shadow mailbox is less than 50 percent full.
We recommend that you make a list of the recipients whose mailboxes are
full, so you can ask them to delete at least half of their messages. (You
cannot use AUDIX to make this request, because it cannot deliver
messages until the mailboxes have more room.)
7. Log out of the shadow mailbox.

EL — Enhanced-List Application
If you regularly get this alarm, the following questions can help you evaluate how
your business uses ELA:
■
■
■
Do your subscribers use large enhanced lists too frequently? Are they
being used for trivial or non-business purposes?
Are subscriber mailboxes too small? Should you increase mailbox space
or purchase more hours for storage?
Is the ELA class-of-service correct? (Check the value in the Mailbox
Size (seconds), Maximum:field on the Class of Service screen, Page
2. Is the ELA class-of-service assigned to the shadow mailbox?
■
Are the intervals for rescheduling delivery on the System Parameters
Features screen appropriate?

Event ID: ELA-badreca01 through ELA-badreca12
Description:
Bad record deleted from E-List registry. Check for missing
lists. (extension)
ELA detected a corrupt record and took the following action:
■
If the message displays an extension, ELA deleted its
record.
■
If the message does not display an extension, ELA could not
determine the extension of the corrupt record and deletes
the record.
Repair Procedure:
There are two recovery methods:
■
Go to the Administer Enhanced-Lists window and note any lists that may
be missing.
Use (F4) NEW E-LIST to re-enter each missing Enhanced List, one at a
time. If ELA reports that an AUDIX mailbox already exists for a given
extension, and the reported data match those of the missing list, answer
‘y’ to confirm the change of the existing mailbox into an enhanced-list
mailbox.
■
Restore data from the most recent backup of system data. See Chapter 3,
“Common System Procedures,” in your maintenance book for instructions
about restoring data. If you would prefer to have assistance with this

available for ELA. Some questions to ask are:
■
How many trusted servers are on the network?
What are their activity cycles?
