Jabber Deployment - Installation Switches

[rconradhh]

I've read the Jabber deployment documentation in regards to the possible installation switches, but I'm running into a problem.  When Jabber launches for the first time I'd like to have the account type set to "Cisco Communications Manager 9 or later" and also have the Login Server IP specified.  

I cannot find out of this is possible.  Does anyone have any thoughts? I've attached a picture as well.

In my previous experience, you are better of using Orca and repackaging the installer with the proper arguments already embedded.  I've seen problems where when I used the switch to clear previous bootstrap parameters, it didn't worked.

Just for reference, here's the switch you can use:

Example Installation Commands

Review examples of commands to install Cisco Jabber for Windows.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Release 9.x

msiexec.exe /i CiscoJabberSetup.msi /quiet CLEAR=1

Where:

• CLEAR=1 — Deletes any existing bootstrap file.
• /quiet — Specifies a silent installation.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Release 8.x in Default Mode

msiexec.exe /i CiscoJabberSetup.msi /quiet CLEAR=1 AUTHENTICATOR=CUP CUP_ADDRESS=1.2.3.4

Where:

• CLEAR=1 — Deletes any existing bootstrap file.
• AUTHENTICATOR=CUP — Sets Cisco Unified Presence as the authenticator.
• CUP_ADDRESS=1.2.3.4 — Sets 1.2.3.4 as the IP address of the presence server.
• /quiet — Specifies a silent installation.

Create a customer installer:
