Deploying
IBM® Sametime® consists of a variety of servers and clients, and can be deployed to suit many different environments. The deployment instructions are organized by feature set, beginning with the minimum components that are necessary to support instant messaging, and then expanding the deployment to include features such as audio and video support, and conferencing.
Deploying instant messaging
Instant messaging features are provided primarily by the IBM® Sametime® Community Server, which supports presence, text chats, and two-way phone calls.

Configuring Sametime® Community Server connectivity
Define the host names and ports for Community Services on the IBM® Sametime® Community Server.
Ports used by the Sametime® Community Server
IBM® Sametime® uses a number of ports on the server. This topic lists the default ports and their uses.
Assigning IP addresses to multiple Sametime® Community servers installed on a single IBM® i computer
If you install multiple IBM® Sametime® Community servers on a single computer, you must assign a distinct IP address to each server.

Assigning IP addresses to multiple Sametime Community servers installed on a single IBM i computer

If you install multiple IBM® Sametime® Community servers on a single computer, you must assign a distinct IP address to each server.

You can install multiple Sametime servers on a single computer, within the same logical partition. In this scenario, each Sametime server instance runs on a separate partitioned IBM Domino® server.

When multiple Sametime servers are running on separate Domino partitions within the same logical partition of an IBM i server, it is important for each Sametime server to be assigned a separate IP address. If you are also running any other Domino servers or HTTP servers within the same logical partition, you must also be certain that those servers are assigned separate IP addresses to avoid port conflicts.
