I nt r oduc t i on:
Lotus Notes Traveler provides two-way, over-the-air synchronization between Domino servers and
Windows Mobile handheld devices. Lotus Notes Traveler synchronizes e-mail, calendar, to-do, address
book, and journal data in real time. New e-mail arriving in your inbox on the Domino server arrives on the
device without you needing to do anything and triggers a notification event, such as a tone or a device
vibration. Updates made on the device such as sending a new e-mail or changing a calendar entry are
synchronized with the server as soon as a network connection is available.

The Lotus Notes Traveler client provides a simple, easy-to-use interface with a minimal number of
configuration settings. You can customize how much data is synchronized with the device to optimize the
use of device memory.

The Lotus Notes Traveler 8.5 server runs as a Domino server task and is installed on a server running
Lotus Domino 8.5. For basic configurations, the Lotus Notes Traveler component runs on a Domino
server immediately following installation with minimal input required from an administrator. All day-to-day
administrator activities are performed using the Domino Administrator client and the Domino remote
administration console. The Lotus Notes Traveler server task uses the Domino directory to automatically
look up and find Notesusers, so there is no manual enrollment procedure.

If you are a Notes user, then you are already enabled as a Lotus Notes Traveler user. Mobile handheld
device users only need to install the client software and point the device to a Lotus Notes Traveler server.
Device will automatically register with the server and synchronization begins immediately for the users
device.

The primary method for Lotus Notes Traveler clients communicating with the Domino server is through an
over-the-air communication channel such as cellular General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) or WiFi
(802.11x). The Lotus Notes Traveler client works with any secure virtual private network (VPN) installed
on the device, but provides integrated support with Lotus Mobile Connect 6.1.1.1 (LMC). By using Lotus
Mobile Connect, you take advantage of the roaming and secure communication features that logically
extend the enterprise network to the mobile device, regardless of the physical network that the device is
using. The Lotus Notes Traveler client can connect using public GPRS or GSM networks and still
maintain the security and presence of being on a company intranet. Data transmitted between the device
and server is compressed to reduce the data traffic to a minimum, which is particularly important over
slow traffic links.
If a mobile device is lost or stolen, an administrator can issue a remote wipe command to remove all sensitive
data from the device. You have the option to remove the Lotus Notes Traveler application and data or restore
the device to the factory default.
Obj ec t i ve:
At the end of the lab, you should be able to:
Install the Notes Traveler Server
Configure Windows Mobile 6 Emulator
Install Notes Traveler Client
Test Notes Traveler Functionality
Remotely Wipe out Traveler data on device

SECTION 4: TESTING NOTES TRAVELER FUNCTIONALITY

Step 1 Without closing your device emulator window, start Lotus Notes 8.5 client from your Desktop
shortcut (if its not already started) and login as Manisha Annam / passw0rd.
Step 2 Send a test email to Domino Admin/IBM. Include tables, font sizes and color to test the
functionality.
NOTE : With Lotus Notes Traveler 8.5, Rich text email can be displayed on Window Mobile 6 devices,
including support for fonts, tables and text color. Lotus Notes Traveler client will render rich text items for
those messages synchronized from the server to the device. Exception would be e-mails synchronized
to the drafts folder. The drafts folder will be synchronized to the device as plain text.

Note: Forwarding, replying, editing, or creating an e-mail with the device will render the content as plain text

Step 9 Use the same technique to test for synchronization of Calendar, Contacts, Notes, and Tasks
items.

SECTION 4: REMOTE WIPE
If a mobile device is lost or stolen, an administrator can issue a remote wipe command to remove all sensitive data from
the device. You have the option to remove the Lotus Notes Traveler application and data or restore the device to the
factory default.
Step 1 Make sure the Domino server is running.
Step 2 Click File->Open->Lotus notes Application, select the DOM85/ibm server to look in when
prompted, and open Manisha Annam.nsf from inside the mail folder.

Step 3 Without closing your device emulator window, start Domino Administrator 8.5 client from your
Desktop shortcut and login as Domino Admin / passw0rd.
Step 4 If the Admin client is not connected to any server, goto File > Open Server and select
Dom85/ibm as the server name.

Step 5 From the Domino Administrator, select the File tab. Make sure the Show me list is Database
only.
Step 6 Navigate to the database IBM Lotus Notes Traveler - lotustraveler.nsf.
Double-click to open the application.

Note: If you select the hard reset option, then this also removes Lotus Traveler and all PIM and
e-mail data on the device


Step 9 Select Lotus Traveler Application and Data to remove the Lotus Application and data on the
device. Please remember that this will wipe out all the email data on the device.

Hard Reset Device : This option will restore the device back to factory default settings.
Lotus Traveler Application and Data : This option will remove the Lotus Traveler application and all PIM and
Email data that was synchronized with Lotus Traveler.
Storage Card : This option will remove any data that is present on storage cards loaded in the device.
Step 10 At the confirmation dialog, select No if you do not wish to remove the application and data on
the device. Please remember that selecting Yes this will wipe out all the application and email
data on the device.

Note: Some older Windows Mobile devices running Windows Mobile version 5 without the
Microsoft Messaging and Security Feature Pack upgrade may not hard reset when they receive
the reset command from the Lotus Traveler server. Instead these devices will simply reboot. If this
does happen, then the Lotus Traveler client will detect that the hard reset command has failed and
will execute a wipe of the Lotus Traveler Application and Data
Summar y:
