Skype for Business Questions

$
0
0

Not sure where to begin but I have several questions, some unrelated to the others, about Skype for Business and external use. We are currently using SfB interally only and would like to expand it for outside use. Here are a few questions:

1. If we get external SfB access up and running, will our external users be able to use chat with all of our internal users, as if they are located internally? So all the features would be the same?

2. What exactly do our external users need for a client? Would they just use the free Skype client, or would they need to purchase a SfB client? If they need to purchase a SfB client, what is a rough estimate on cost for that client?

3. Can you setup SfB to be able to use SMS (texting?). If so, is that feature built into the software or is there add-on pieces that would need to be purchased?

Any help is appreciated!

Missing Machine during publishing Lync Topology

Hi, 

While publishing the Lync Topology, the wizard is showing following error - 

The following machines from the topology you are publishing were not found in Active Directory and will result in errors during Enable-CsTopology as it tries to prepare Active Directory entries for the topology machines.  If you choose to publish this topology Enable-CsTopology will have to be re-run once the missing machines are domain-joined:

databaseFQDN.mydomain.com

The DB instance is already on domain, object available in AD, can be pinged and NS lookup is OK. 

Have tried as different user, Run as Administrator but resulting in same error .. 

Any suggestion?

Cheers,

H.

Question of configuration of Office Web App Server

$
0
0

We have a single Office Web App server in our Lync 2013 environment. It seems to work OK for users inside the network. We use conferencing with Lync very limited at this time but users have no problem with Power Point slides in meetings. We are now extending our conference to users outside our network.

During our testing, the user outside the network whether using the Lync 2013 client or the web client, the Power Point slide never loads completely. It just says Loading.... in the meeting but never loads. No error is displayed. Our web app server has an internal and external URL configured. The internal URL is the FQDN of the server itself. The external URL is called webapp.domain.com. This name is published in public DNS and the IP points to our reverse proxy the same as meet.domain.com and dialin.domain.com. There is a certificate on our FE server for the external web service that has a SAN to cover the name of the external URL on the web app.

We were told by our consultant that the external client will make the request for the Power Point slide through our FE server and the FE redirects it to the Office Web App server. We are definitely missing something in our configuration. Is it normal to have both an internal and external URL on the Web App? Would it be better to have just a single URL for access by both internal and external users?

Lync 2013 Updating xds database

I'm running Lync 2013 Standard Edition. I updated to the latest cumulative update and everything is working as expected. All of my databases have also been updated with the exception of xds.

DatabaseName                            ExpectedVersion                         InstalledVersion
------------                            ---------------                         ----------------
xds                                     10.13.3                                 10.13.1
lis                                     3.1.1                                   3.1.1

According to Microsoft install instructions:

"If the Central Management Store is homed on a Lync Server 2013 Standard Edition Server or Enterprise pool that was previously updated with the Lync Server 2013 February 2015 cumulative updates, do not run theInstall-CsDatabase -CentralManagementDatabase command."

So should the xds db be updated?

Lync 2013 web client - no whiteboard, file attachment, poll

$
0
0

Hi

I am testing internal to external Lync 2013.  Internal using the skype for business desktop client and externall using internet explorer and the Lync Web App.

If i share my desktop or a program internally, the internal desktop clients get it, and the external web app gets it, so that works.

If i present the whiteboard, a poll or share a file attachment, the internal desktop clients get it, but the Lync Web App doesn't.  If i click on the present icon, it says "No one is presenting". "Manage Presentable Content" is greyed out but I imagine this is because only the presenter can share. If I click attachments it is empty.  "Manage Attachments" is greyed out, again i imagine because only the presenter can share.

Video and audio and chat works between the mobile app and mobile app to internal desktop clients.

Any ideas?

SfB upgarde has been completed but monitoring and archive is not capturing data

Hi All

I have completed the SfB upgrade but after the upgrade I am not getting any CDRs or QOS info on the monitoring and archiving server.

I think there should be an update ran on the server (which I have done using the topology builder) but does not seem to work.

Is there something I missed during the upgrade?

Looking forward to your help

Lync 2013 and Juniper SSL VPN

$

Hi all,

Just looking for anyone with experience of bypassing a company SLL VPN (Juniper in this case) for all Lync 2013 client traffic.

Its a well documented subject and is covered in this great article
http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2011/11/15/enabling-lync-media-to-bypass-a-vpn-tunnel.aspx

But I have a problem with this particluar section

Source

Destination

Port

Description

Client VPN Subnets

Corporate VPN network

1024-65535 TCP/UDP (this is by default; however these port ranges are configurable. See the QoS Deployment Guide for more details.

Lync 2010 client media traffic to all other internal clients.

This is suggesting, that to ensure peer-to-peer calls (between a VPN connected user and another user in the Office) do not go down the VPN that we should block all TCP/UDP traffic on ports 1024-65535.     We have found this to be very intrusive due to such a broad range of ports and thus prevents access to many Intranet-hosted services for the VPN client.

My question is this: it says that the port ranges are configurable - I've read the QoS document on how to achieve.  Has anyone done this: modified this range of ports for A/V ?   I have no idea what is an acceptable port range.   The QoS quide says min 40 ports, but doesnt advise if there is a user-port ratio to consider.

Any advise would be greatly apprecaited, thanks.

Lync FrontEnd Pool Certificate Requirement

$
0

Hi, 

I have built one Lync 2013 Frontend pool not matching with internal AD name.. But the frontend server FQDN is matching with the local AD name.. 

Local AD name contoso.local

Lync Poolname      Pool.contoso.com

Our clients connects internally directly to Frontend pool to get the service. 

Since 3rd party CAs' are not going to provide SAN names which are not public domains.. in such case, how should we include the internal Server FQDN in the certificate.

We dont want to publish internal Root CA for all machines through GPO.  

Can we use two different certificates on Frontend pool, 1 with all public names pool.contoso.com and 1 with Server FQDNs.. 

Appreciate immediate response

Skype for Business - Error 0xC3E93C2F (SIPPROXY_E_UNKNOWN_USER_OR_EPID)

$

Hey all,

Recently migrate from Lync server to Skype for Business 2015 (standard edition, 1 fe, 1 edge).  Both are alive and user has no problem except for address book synchronizing problem and read on some forum that i should change the policy to WebSearchOnly. Though im not satisfied with that solution (coz i wanna the address book available locally), i can live with that for now.

My problem is about repeating error LS User Services as below:

An error occurred while processing a batch of NotifyPipe replies from another front end. This resulted in the notification not being sent.

Error code: 0xC3E93C2F(SIPPROXY_E_UNKNOWN_USER_OR_EPID), Error identifier: NotifySingle.Notify
Cause: Possible issues with the other front end or with this front end.
Resolution:
Ensure the front end is functioning correctly.

I didn't find any error on system event regarding to this, and my front ends works fine. I wonder what is this error all about?

I dont expect anyone to suggest me to make sure latest update installed on server  cause that doesn't resolve the issue as it has been discussed in here and here

Lync CDR - To Phone Number and From Phone Number both the external cli intermittently

Hi,

I am experiencing an issue at the moment where some calls the To Phone Number and From Phone Number are both the external cli.

So for example if a call was from a Lync user to a mobile no. the call would be displayed as mobile no. to mobile no.

This is then affecting our billing reporting as the Lync user is not getting charged for the call.

Please see screenshot below demonstrating a call report with the issue.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Lync Edge Server

Hi All,

I have this scenario where I have a Lync Edge Server 2010 and will upgrade to Lync Edge Server 2013. My customer doesn't want to have a downtime on Lync, so I can't use some of the articles that I read about decommissioning the Lync Edge Server 2010 then build Lync Edge Server 2013. Is there any solution or way that I can run Lync Edge 2010 and 2013 at the same time?

And also, I'm using NAT on this Edge server. I have a Public IP and named it eg. sip.domain.com on our provider pointing on our Edge Server 2010, my question is can I use another name pointing a new Public IP to Edge Server 2013? Like sip2.domain.com? Is that possible?

Thank you.
