Configuring the OVOC Server Manager on Azure (Public IP)

This section describes the required configuration actions on the OVOC server deployed in the Azure Cloud.

Restart the OVOC server where specified in the referenced procedures for changes to take effect.

To configure the OVOC server:
1. Login to the OVOC Server Manager (see Connecting to the OVOC Server Manager).
2. Change the following default passwords:
acems OS user (see OS Users Passwords)
root OS user (see OS Users Passwords)

Unless you have made special configurations, the Azure instance is in the public cloud and therefore is accessible over the Internet. Consequently, it is highly recommended to change theses default passwords to minimize exposure to password hacking.

3. Load the OVOC license (see License).
4. Configure the OVOC server with Azure Public IP address to enable devices deployed behind a NAT to connect to OVOC (see Configure OVOC Server with NAT IP Address per Interface ). See the setup of the virtual machine to find the Azure Public IP (see Deploying OVOC Image on Microsoft Azure
5. Configure the Azure IP address/Domain Name (where OVOC is installed) as the external NTP clock source (see NTP).

The same clock source should be configured on the managed devices (see Configuring Mediant CE OVOC Public IP Connection Settings using Web Interface).
