Avaya Modular Messaging Concepts and
Planning Guide
Message Networking server among multiple Modular Messaging—
MSS systems
Modular Messaging—MSS systems can establish direct connectivity with
each other, using SMTP/MIME networking. However, for simplified
administration, directory management, and performance, customers are
advised to consider using a Message Networking server among multiple
Modular Messaging—Avaya MSS systems.
Message Networking server for administration: Modular Messaging
requires that each remote machine be administered on the Modular
Messaging system.
With the implementation of a Message Networking server, remote
machines are administered on the Message Networking server. Hence,
each Modular Messaging system only needs to administer the Message
Networking server system, rather than each remote machine, thus
simplifying administration.
Message Networking server for performance: Large directory updates
between Modular Messaging systems can significantly impact system
performance.
A Message Networking server eliminates the possibility of multiple
directory updates occurring at the same time, thus improving the
performance of directory updates.
When the number of subscribers of a Modular Messaging system is large,
customers are advised to consider using the high-availability
configuration of the MSS (MSS-H). MSS-H improves performance of
directory updates by providing higher throughput than the
standard-availability MSS configuration (MSS-S).
