Notes:
Microsoft Windows 95, 98, ME and Windows NT4 Operating Systems are no longer supported by Avaya.
CBC requires the associated Delta Server application to be installed on the appropriate operating system, please refer to the Delta Server Installation manual for detailed information.
IMS and Web Campaigns options within Voicemail Pro are only supported on Windows Servers. Aspects of operation such as Voicemail to Email, Integrated Messaging Pro (IMS), Web Campaigns, etc, are subject to further requirements. Please refer to the Voicemail Installation and Administration manual.

Although a server application, IP Office SMDR (Delta Server) can also run on a Windows 2000, 2003, Windows XP and Windows Vista client Operating Systems but should not run on the same PC as a CBC or CCC Delta Server.
Windows Small Business Server 2003 is supported for the same applications as Windows 2003 Server.
64 Bit versions of Microsoft operating systems are not currently supported with IP Office applications. When a new PC Operating System or service pack is released by Microsoft, Avaya will endeavour to support the new OS or SP within 6 months of release. This time is required to re-certify the applications through the Software Verification and Field Trial programs. Support will be announced in a future Technical Tip or Bulletin.
