2. Configure Avaya Communication Manager

This section presents configuration steps for the Avaya Communication Manager. It is assumed that an appropriate license file and authentication file have been installed on the server, and that login and password credentials are available.

The configuration and verification operations illustrated in this section were all performed using the Communication Manager System Administration Terminal (SAT).

The procedures include the following areas:

• Verify license
• Verify the status CTI link for TSAPI service
• Administer system parameters features
• Administer agent stations

2.1. Verify license

Log into the System Access Terminal (SAT) to verify that the Communication Manager license has proper permissions for features required for call recording. Use the "display system-parameters customer-options" command to verify that the Computer Telephony Adjunct Links customer option is set to "y" on Page 4. If this option is not set to "y", then contact Avaya sales team of business partner for a proper license file.

2.2. Verify the status of CTI link for TSAPI service

Log into the System Access Terminal (SAT) to enter the "status aesvcs cti-link" command. The link status should show no for maintenance busy (Mnt Busy), the Service State should indicate established and Version should be 6 or higher.

status aesvcs cti-link

                          AE SERVICES CTI LINK STATUS

If the CTI link is not established, then follow instructions in chapter Administering Communication Manager for AE Services in document Application Enablement Services Administration and Maintenance Guide available at http://support.avaya.com

2.3. Administer agent stations

Use the "change station xxxxx" command, where xxxxx is the phone's extension, and change IP SoftPhone to "y", to allow a virtual IP softphone (DMCC) to be registered against the station. The MiaRec application will use the Multiple Registration feature of Communication Manager to register the DMCC-based recording device against the station.

2.4. Administer System Parameters Features

Enter the "change system-parameters features" command. Navigate to Page 5, and verify that Create Universal Call ID (UCID) has value “y”. If not, then set it to "y" and set UCID Network Node ID to an unassigned node ID.
