DNS Entry for User link Versus Admin Link

[Live2 Bicycle]

I have been asked to create easy links for end users to access their user settings in BOTH Unity Connection and Unifed Personal Communicator.

For example...

I want a DNS entry called -- voicemail.  When an end user types that in to a web browser I want it to take them to

https://ipt-connection1:8443/ciscopca/

I can only figure out via DNS how to get them to

http://ipt-connection1/

I remember back in my days of Windows NT 4.0 I could specify IIS to reconzie what it was being passed and redirect but I have not found a document or option to do this in BOTH Unity Connection and Unifed Personal Cummunicator.

BOTH Unity Connection and Unifed Personal Communicator are at version 8.6

Thanks in advance for any guidence.

You would need to create user-friendly DNS entries (e.g. https://voicemail ), resolve them to another server that you can modify the IIS/Apache configuration of, and cause it to perform an HTTP redirect to the correct URL for the user. You have no OS access so there is no method for you to modify Apache/Tomcat as you used to with IIS.

Thanks Jonathan,  I have opened a ticket with our IIS team here at work.  Thanks for the feedback!
