User Extension Portal

The User Extension Portal is an individual access portal provided for every extension configured on the UCx with a voice mail account enabled.

To access the User Extension Portal, perform the following steps:

  1. From your Internet browser, enter the address of the UCx system followed by /recordings (e.g. 192.168.1.200/recordings if the default IP address is used)
  2. If you get a prompt that the website you are trying to access has a problem with its security certificate, select the option to proceed to the website. You may want to install the security certificates of the UCx system on your PC or add the UCx system's IP address to your browser's permanent exceptions list if you do not want to encounter this warning again (please refer to the browser documentation for more information).
  3. The login page is displayed. Login using your voicemail extension number and password. For example, for extension 510 with the password 321510, you would enter the following values:
    • Login = 510
    • Password = 321510

Access to the User Extension Portal is recommended only if a user requires some functionality that is available only via the portal. We highly recommend the administrator define strong passwords for the user's voice mail as it will be used to access the user extension portal.
See User Portal Security for details.
For remote access to the user extension portal, see Configure Port Forwarding for Remote Access.
