What…
is Exchange UM?
What is it not?
UM is a Replacement for Voice Mail
• Voicemail in the Inbox (Message creation from the phone)
− Voice messages and missed calls appear in e-mail clients
− Outlook 2007 and 2010 (special voicemail rendering)
− Outlook Web App (special voicemail rendering)
− Exchange ActiveSync clients (many smartphone platforms, incl. WP7)
− Voice Mail Preview (7 language packs)
− Text inserted into voice message automatically from audio recording
• Outlook Voice Access (Message retrieval from the phone)
− Voicemail, E-mail, Calendar, Contacts, Directory, Options
− Speech-enabled interface (26 language packs)
− Messages: Read (play), reply(-all), forward, call sender, delete etc.
− Meetings: Read, accept, decline, send “I’ll be X minutes late”, etc.
− Directory, Contacts: Call, send message, play details, etc.
− Great for hands-free triage (e.g. while walking or driving)

• Call Answering Rules
− UM-enabled user customizes caller interface
− Multiple rules allowed per user
− Specify conditions:
− Who’s calling; when the call arrives; free/busy status etc.
− Record custom greetings
− Create menu for callers to choose from:
− Leave a message, transfer call, try to find user (while caller holds)
• Automated Attendants
− Easily contact someone in an organization without knowing
their direct dial number

UM is not the PBX
• UM does not provide “dial tone”
• Customers who run UM today must use one or more of:
− Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007/R2
− Microsoft Lync™ Server 2010
− PBX + VoIP gateway that is interoperable with UM
− IP PBX that is interoperable with UM
• Current list at “Telephony Advisor for Exchange 2010”
− http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee364753.aspx
− UM Systems Integrators have demonstrated other
integrations
How…
does UM work?
UM: Attraction to Org Admins
• Same admin tools and techniques as the rest of Exchange
• Based around PowerShell
− Everything is scriptable
− RBAC: 3 UM admin roles “out of the box”, can make more
• Policy framework for UM user capabilities
• Management pack for Microsoft System Center
• Reporting built into Exchange Control Panel

UM Uses Voice-over-IP
• For IP-PBXs, don’t need VoIP gateway
− But IP-PBX must meet UM’s SIP interoperability requirements

UM Uses Voice-over-IP
• For OCS or Lync, don’t need VoIP gateway for UM
− But OCS/Lync needs Gateway for telephone network access

How…
does Exchange UM Online differ from
UM on-premises?
UM Online runs in MS Datacenters
• Voice-over-IP to/from UM Online runs over the public IP network

• Correct type of Exchange user licenses (provided during Beta)
• One or more supported telephony systems
− Traditional PBX + Gateway (see Telephony Advisor)
− IP-PBX
− Microsoft Lync Server 2010
• VoIP-aware Network Border Server
− Supported Session Border Controller (for PBX, IP-PBX)
− Lync Server 2010 Edge Role

− Protection against intrusion and denial of service attacks
Makes/models tested to date with UM Online
− AudioCodes (Mediant 1000 MSBG, 6.00AL.014)
− Ingate (SIParator19, 4.8.4)
− NET (VX1800, 4.7.2v47)
AudioCodes and NET products available standalone and also
as combination media gateway/SBC devices
In principle, all SBCs tested should work with UM-compatible
gateways and IP-PBXs. In practice, we have not tested all
possible combinations.
Cisco (CUBE) product does not support some UM call flows
(e.g. message waiting indicator).
