Nortel Networks Broadcast Server Manual Do Utilizador

The following information, intended for Broadcast Server administrators, 

assumes that you have installed Broadcast Server and performed the tasks 

described in the “Broadcast Server Installation” chapter in the Application 

Gateway Administration Guide.

In typical usage, the Broadcast Server administrator enables a select group 

of users to broadcast alerts to distribution lists obtained from the 

Application Gateway (which is synchronized with LDAP or CSV directory 

sources). The general configuration steps in this topic apply to that 

scenario. 
To initially configure the Broadcast Server, follow these general steps. 

Make sure that the Application Gateway is synchronized with the 

connected directories. For information, refer to the “LDAP/CSV 

Directory Configuration” chapter in the Application Gateway 

Administration Guide.

Create user accounts
To enable a user to log in to Broadcast Server and work with alerts, 

you must create an account for the user. The user privileges are 

described in 

Define the items that should be available to users when they compose 

alerts:

Distribution Lists
By default, a distribution list obtained from a directory source is 

owned by the administrator and is private (meaning only the 

administrator can use the list). 
To make a distribution list available to other users, change the 

ownership of the list from private to shared and then give all or 

individual users permission to send alerts to the list. For more 

information, see
