MConsole: Messaging Configuration Management
MConsole (Message Console) is Isode's central tool for M-Switch Configuration and Operational management for both Internet and X.400 Messaging deployments.
On this page you'll find information on MConsole configuration management features for Internet Messaging. On other pages you'll find information on MConsole features specific to X.400 Messaging and MConsole Operational Management features.
Isode Messaging configuration is stored in the directory for M-Switch and M-Box. These servers access their configuration from the directory.
MConsole manages configuration in the directory for M-Switch. M-Box configuration is set up by MConsole, but managed by the Internet Messaging Administrator (web application). IMA is also used for managing Internet Users.
MConsole connects to the directory using an Isode Bind Profile, shared with Sodium and other Isode GUIs that access the directory. Multiple messaging configurations can be managed from MConsole. The configuration management screen shown below enables creation, backup and restore of messaging configurations.

MConsole's Switch view, which is primarily oriented to operational management of M-Switch, also gives access to parts of the configuration, enabling easy adjustment of parameters relevant to specific operations.
Configuration Wizards
New configurations can be set up and existing ones modified using a configuration wizard, making it easy to set up simple configurations for a range of different purposes, while not imposing any constraints on more complex ones.
