Enabling Integration with Openfire

You can integrate Jive SBS with your instance of Openfire, an XMPP server. In this way, you can create a connection in which IM presence information is visible in Jive SBS. In other words, with the application and Openfire aware of each other, a person "Available" via IM will appear so in the application. To integrate the two, you'll need Jive SBS version 2.0 or higher and Openfire version 3.5.0 or higher.

Also, if you want Openfire to use the application as its source of user data, you'll need to have REST-style web services enabled in Jive SBS. When you use the admin console to create the connection between the application and Openfire, the console will automatically enable REST-style services. Note that this web service access will be enabled for all registered users (technically, Openfire is represented in Jive SBS as a registered user). You can't have Openfire integration without enabling access to the application via REST.
