Use IBM® Installation
Manager to install an IBM Sametime® SIP Proxy/Registrar.
Before you begin
Tip: The SIP Proxy/Registrar installation requires
port 8073 to be available. If you have another instance of WebSphere
Application Server installed on the computer, it might be using port
8073 and can cause a conflict that prevents installation of the SIP
Proxy/Registrar server. To avoid this problem, temporarily rename
the \WebSphere directory for the instance that
will not be used for the SIP Proxy/Registrar. After the SIP Proxy/Registrar
has been successfully installed, remember to change the temporary
directory name back to the original name.
