Notas :

When using an option with CTI, the consumption value must be added; example for a rack 3:

- 4093 (V24+CTI) = 0 + 0.79 = 0.79 W


- 4094 (S0 + CTI) = 1.07 + 0.79 = 1.86 W

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 13/14


CAPACITIES AND LIMITS PRODUCT PRESENTATION

When using an SLI extension board or an MIX board, the number of analog sets that can be connected
must be added even if they are not connected; e.g. for a rack 3:

- SLI16 = 4.64 +(16 x 0.21) = 8 W


- MIX484 = 2.99 + (4 x 0.21) = 3.83 W

When using a UAI16-1 extension board, a "power splitter" option can be added to port 1 (in parallel
with the UA set) that makes it possible to feed all the subscribers and base stations connected to this
same board. They will then be deducted from the power budget; e.g. for a rack 3:

- either a UAI16-1 with 10 UA sets and 3 IBS without the "power splitter" option = 13.12 W, or 1.66
+ (10 x 0.39) + (3 x 2.52) = 13.12 W
- either a UAI16-1 with 10 UA sets and 3 IBS without the "power splitter" option = 1 W, or -1 + (10
x 0.39) + (3 x 2.52) = 13.12 W

The consumption budget for e-Business solutions can only be used if CPUe-1/CPUe-2 boards are
used. 2nd generation Racks offer a higher performance power supply with a higher consumption bud-
get per Rack. However, the CPU, CPUe and CPU-1 boards cannot detect these different 1G and 2G
Racks and therefore cannot include them when calculating power consumption. Maximum consump-
tion budget values for e-Business solutions:

- 50 W for a Rack 1
- 71 W for a Rack 2
- 95 W for a Rack 3

The consumption budget can be read via the labeled addresses below:

- PowBudMain for the main cabinet value


- PowBudMex1 for the value of add-on module 1
- PowBudMex2 for the value of add-on module 2

Note that the IBS value = 0W (local power) in the labeled addresses. This is because the system cannot
detect whether the IBS's are powered locally or self-powered. To avoid being restricted by power limits
in a case where the IBS would use a local power supply it doesn't count them

RACK 1

The RACK 1 module consists essentially of a plastic frame.


The plastic frame receives all the parts for attaching the power supply board, the fans, the battery and
the mains power connector, and everything needed to facilitate the routing of the cables.
There is no backplane board: the metric connectors are on the power supply module.

The enclosure comprises 3 parts: metal cover and base, plastic front face.

Access to the fans, the power supply module and the battery is gained by disconnecting the mains ca-
ble and removing the top metal cover (it is vital to removal all the boards before opening the cover).

RACK 2 AND RACK 3

The frame consists of a "U"-shaped sheath closed on the top by a riveted plate. The boards are guided
by 2 (Rack 2) or 3 (Rack 3) rails riveted vertically to the frame.
The enclosure consists of a metal top part, two metal side parts and a plastic front face.

Access to the fans, the power supply module and the batteries is gained by disconnecting the mains
cable and unscrewing the back panel.

The BRA board The BRA (Basic Rate Access) board provides the basic access points (2 x 64-Kbps B-
channels + 1 x 16-Kbps D-channel per access) for connecting the system to the ISDN digital public
network (point-to-point or multipoint T0 link) and, starting with version R2.0, to a private network
(point-to-point DLT0 link); 3 versions are offered:

- BRA2: 2 T0 accesses
- BRA4: 4 T0 accesses
- BRA8: 8 T0 accesses

With PM5 it is possible to define the operating mode access by access: T0 (ISDN) or DLT0 (QSIG). If
the choice is DLT0 (QIG), the following operating mode may be defined: master = Network (NT), slave
= User(TE)

Nota : Configuration in T0/DLT0 is done by access pairs; if an access (04-001-01 for example) is
configured in DLT0, the 2nd one (04-002-01) must also be configured in DLT0.

- APA board equipped with Loop Start signalling: In case of a conventional battery, Tip is nor-
mally connected to the network equipment's earth and Ring to the network's - polarity. Neverthe-
less, maintenance operations may temporarily or permanently inverse these polarities: the
connection of each of the battery's terminals to earth cannot be ensured. In the case of a floating
battery, no network's terminal is connected to earth: the Tip and Ring outputs are floating.

CLIDSP BOARD EQUIPMENT

The signal necessary to manage the CLIP (Calling Line Identification Presentation) is generated at the
CPU board level except in the following cases, which require a CLIDSP board (to be installed on con-
nector X5 of the board): US, UK and all countries using only Dual Tone (DT-AS) as alert signal.

The CLIDSP board will also be necessary to detect the CLIP in the on-hook state (later phase).

BLUETOOTH FOR IP TOUCH SETS

1-Basic description

Overview

The Alcatel IP Touch 4068 set features Bluetooth® 1.1 class 3 (1mW) wireless technology. This tech-
nology uses the ISM 2.4 GHz radio frequency band.

All audio accessories enabled for Bluetooth® 1.1 and 1.2 wireless technology are supported by the IP
Touch 4068. The level of service provided is that of Bluetooth® 1.1.

The range of a Bluetooth accessory is around 10 meters. Optimum audio quality is obtained at up to
3 meters.

The Alcatel IP Touch 4068 is presumed compliant with the essential requirements of directive 1999/5/
EC of the European Parliament and Council (EC member states), and with section 15 of the Federal
Communications Commission (United States) regulations. The set is designed and manufactured to
remain within the SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) radio transmission limits established by the different
countries concerned (FCC for the USA).

The ISM 2.4 GHz radio frequency spectrum is not used in the same way in all countries and may be
shared with other applications. The set must not be used with Bluetooth® wireless accessories in coun-
tries in which this technology is not authorized.

The Alcatel IP Touch 4068 may cause interference with other radio devices operating in the same fre-
quency band, notably Wifi 802.11b and 802.11g devices. This may result in poor transmission quality
(in particular, audio quality) when using such devices. Alcatel recommends that the two types of tech-
nology are not used at the same time.

Characteristics of the Bluetooth® wireless technology accessory

The audio quality obtained by accessory users depends on the technical characteristics of the accesso-
ry, notably acoustic coupling.

Alcatel recommends use of Bluetooth® headsets complying with recommendation TIA/EIA-810-A -


that specifies a minimum TCLw attenuation of 52 dB.

A headset that does not comply with the recommendation generates an unpleasant echo for the re-
mote party. To obtain technical information on your accessory, please contact your supplier.

Safety rules

Using a Bluetooth® wireless accessory may result in perceptible noise for persons with a hearing aid.

Accessories must not be used in areas with warning signs indicating that electrical devices or products
using radio frequencies must be switched off. Such areas commonly include hospitals, areas where
explosive products are stored or handled, and areas where flammable gases or vapors may be pre-
sent.
To limit any risk of interference, Alcatel recommends that persons with a pacemaker do not remain in
the proximity of the Alcatel IP Touch 4068 set when it is connected to a wireless accessory.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 19/20


IP TOUCH SETS 4038 AND 4068 TERMINALS

4097 CBL ADAPTER

Alcatel Advanced sets can be equipped with a 4097 CBL UA/DECT adapter and can therefore com-
municate with the system over a DECT radio link. This device means you no longer have to worry about
cabling constraints. An RS232 link is also advisable for CTI applications.

The Advanced set and its adapter are jointly called Advanced DECT/4036.

The 4097 CBL adapter is powered by a 220V AC/42V DC mains adapter. This mains adapter is also
a power splitter. The base of the power socket must be positioned as close to the adapter as possible,
and must also be easily accessible.

Notas : This adapter can also be used with an Alcatel Premium set (internal installation) or First or
Easy sets (external installation).

4094 ISW module


This module connects an S0 terminal to the system via a UA link.

This optional module provides an S0 power bus which requires an external power supply (230V AC/
42V DC adapter), allowing terminals without their own power supply (ISDN terminals, etc.) to be con-
nected to the bus.
The mains supply transformer serves as a sectioning mechanism for the S0 interface. It must therefore
remain easily accessible.

The S0 bus can be a point to point or short passive bus covering 150 m (up to 5 terminals, of which a
maximum of 2 may be powered remotely). Operation is not guaranteed in the event of a power outa-
ge.

Local Power Supply

It is possible to connect a local power supply (230V/42V – 150 mA adapter) to an accessible socket
on the lower part of the 4070 IO/EO base.

The local power supply is used in the following cases:

- main power supply not authorized on the line's wires (depending on specific installation require-
ments)
- to increase the cable length between the interface and the station
- reduction in the system's electrical consumption.

When the external power supply is connected, the base passes automatically to local power supply mo-
de. In the event of a power cut, the base is not supplied.

The 4070 PWT (Personal Wireless Telecommunications) bases constitute an adaptation of the bases to
the DECT standard for the North American market (essentially the United States).

The 4070 PWT bases are designed for an internal installation only (wall attachment) and they are me-
chanically identical to the 4070 IO bases. They conform to the "FCC part 15 A, B, C, D requirements"

CHARGERS

Mobile Reflexes handsets are listed separately from the various battery charging devices available. The
charger must therefore be ordered separately and selected from the models on offer, all of which are
compatible with the Ni-MH or Li-Ion batteries used in Mobile Reflexes handsets. The Mobile Reflexes
200 Ex handset does not support battery charging and therefore has to be used in conjunction with a
"Dual-desktop " charger (for recharging the battery outside the handset).

Whichever charger is used, the maximum charge time (battery connected to mobile) is identical: Mo-
bile Reflexes 100: 5 hrs; Mobile Reflexes 200/200 Ex: 3 hrs.
The "Corded" charger:

- the simplest model: calls can be made while the handset is on charge
- consists of a cable with a connector at one end and an AC/DC mains
adapter at the other.

The "Basic Desktop" charger:

- a simple model that acts as a base for the handset


- consists of a base unit with a built-in power supply cable terminated by
an AC/DC mains adapter.

The "Dual Desktop" charger:

- simultaneously recharges the handset battery and one other battery


- the charger comprises:
- a base unit with two slots (for the handset and additional battery) and
a battery charge indication light
- a removable power cable with AC/DC mains adapter.

Note: the max. charge time in the battery-only slot is 2h30.


The "Voice Desktop" charger:

- simultaneous battery charging and high quality hands-free communica-


tion functions
- the charger comprises:
- a one-slot support base with integrated loudspeaker and micropho-
ne, two volume adjustment buttons (+/-) and a call monitoring indi-
cator (on line, mute)
- a removable power cable with AC/DC mains adapter.

Characteristics

- The IP Enabler is connected to the LAN via an RJ45 connector (10 Mbps Ethernet link for IP Enabler
V1.0 and 10/100 Mbps for IP Enabler V1.5).

- The module is initialized in dynamic (DHCP) or static IP address mode by downloading the binary
into the IP Enabler from the master VoIP CoCPU board, which is treated as a TFTP server.

- The IP Enabler is then recognized by the PCX as a Reflexes terminal in its own right. Voice and si-
gnalling are encapsulated in UDP packets, enabling the Fast IP Reflexes terminal to communicate
with any other type of terminal: Reflexes stations, DECT handsets, analogue sets, Fast IP Reflexes
terminal, H.323 terminal or gateway H.323 (e.g. PC Netmeeting), Pimphony IP Edition, network,
etc.

They are installed from the CD-ROM provided in each system.

PIMphony Pro and PIMphony Team are supplied on a Try and Buy basis. The user can test both appli-
cations free of charge for 2 months.

If PIMphony is emulating an IP workstation, it can be used via an IP Comfort handset.

Connecting the Comfort handset

To connect the Comfort handset you need a full duplex sound card.

This handset system uses the loudspeaker and external mike for hands-free operation.
The handset also supports automatic on-hook and off-hook detection via the COM port. This system
requires a power supply, conveyed via the keyboard or mouse PS/2 connection.

STATION
The VBTEL terminal is designed to act as a display for visually impaired operators, conveying the in-
formation presented on Reflexes terminals. There are 2 models:

- VBTEL 20: equipped with a piezoelectric Braille touchpad with 20 characters and 32 command
keys.
- VBTEL 40: equipped with a piezoelectric Braille touchpad with 40 characters and 32 command
keys.

The information read in Braille on the terminal enables the operator to use the system entirely via a
Reflexes terminal; all the operations (dialing, transfers, line seizures, etc.) are performed from the Re-
flexes terminal.

Description

The on button is located at the top left of the terminal.

The groups of 12 keys on the right and left side of the terminal make up the command keyboard; the
keys are designated by a row letter and a column number (columns 4 and 5 are not used).

The Braille keyboard, in the center, consists of 8 keys, of which the first 6 are the 6 Braille points in

Perkins alphabetical order, the 2 others being the backspace (7) and space keys (8).

A set of 20 or 40 piezoelectric cells located above the Braille keyboard enables Braille characters to
be displayed. Each cell contains 8 points: points 1 to 6 serve to form the 64 characters of the Braille
alphabet; when points 7 and 8 are raised simultaneously, they represent the cursor.

MOUNTING THE ADD-ON MODULES

A kit (a 10-cm cable with two 8-pin modular jacks) connects the 4081M or 4081L add-on modules to
4012, 4023 and 4034 sets (there is no limit on the number of add-on modules in the system).

Procedure

- Turn the set and the module upside down


- Connect the cable to the set and the module
- Join the module to the set using the 2 screws provided in the kit

The same method is used to connect the 2 modules to each other.

CONNECTING UP AN EXTERNAL BELL

It is possible to connect, on the wall-mounted socket, an external call reinforcing bell to 4011, 4012,
4023 and 4034 sets.

The standard connecting cable is 3 m long and has 2 conductors. To connect an external bell, replace
this cable with an optional cable, 5 m long and with 4 conductors.

Available power: 2 mA under 5V (an adapter is therefore necessary).

RESOURCE KEYS (ASSOCIATED
1
OPERATING MODES)
DESCRIPTION

A resource key is used to take a line in order to make or receive a call.

When a station has at least two resource keys, it is said to be multiline. In this mode, the user presses
the resource key associated with the correspondent he wants to contact (using the shuttle call function,
for example). Multiline stations can also operate in Key system or PCX mode.
A station which does not have resource keys is said to be monoline. These resources (3) are "virtual".
In this mode, the user enters a code programmed in the "Features in Conversation" table, to activate
a function such as a shuttle call.

Characteristics of the different modes:

Type of subscriber Normal


Mode Monoline Key system PCX
Default resource keys 3 "virtual" resource keys 2 RGMints (**) 2 RGMints (**)

n (*) RSPs (**) 2 RSBs (**)


Simultaneous mana- 1 conversation 1 conversation 1 conversation

(*) n = number of analogue lines and B channels (within the station key limit).

(**) see explanation overleaf.

CONFIGURATION

T Programming the resource keys on each station:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Subscribers/BasestationsList -> Subscribers/Basestations List
-> Details -> Keys.
- by MMC-Station: Subscriber -> Key.

T Programming the monoline, multiline, "key system" or "PCX" mode:

-> Profiles.
- by MMC-PM5 (Easy view): Subscriber profiles
- by MMC-Station: TerPro.

T Authorize or cancel selection of an RSB if the external call arrives on a line which does not belong
to the trunk programmed for this key:
- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View):
System Miscellaneous -> Memory Read/Write -> Misc. Labels -> SelRSBsig.
- By MMC-Station: Global -> Rd/Wr -> Address s -> "SelRSBsig" -> Return -> Memory

ACTIVATION/USE

Incoming, the system uses the resource keys in the following order of priority:

- Incoming call RSP : Resource dedicated to an external interface


(external) if busy
RSD : Resource dedicated to a directory no.
if busy
RSB : Resource dedicated to a trunk (*)
if busy
RGMint/ext : Resource not dedicated (internal and external calls)
(*) Default operation (see section: "Configuration")

- Incoming call RSL : Resource dedicated to a directory no.


(internal) if busy
RGMint : Resource dedicated to internal calls
if busy
RGMint/ext : Resource not dedicated (internal and external calls)
Outgoing, a call can be made:

- without pressing a resource key (the system selects the most appropriate key as soon as the user
dials)
- by pressing a resource key (before dialing the number), whether:
- for an external outgoing call:
- an RSD (dedicated to a trunk or an "Automatic Route Selection")
- an RSB (dedicated to a trunk or an "Automatic Route Selection")
- an RSP (dedicated to an external interface)
- an RGO (dedicated to outgoing calls)
- an RGMint/ext (not dedicated)
- for an internal outgoing call:
- on an RSL (dedicated to a directory no): the system automatically dials the programmed num-
ber
- an RGMint (dedicated to internal calls)

DESCRIPTION

Trunk groups are used to make calls to the network. A trunk group is made up of at least one analog
line or B channel.

Each bundle has:

- a directory number defined in the main numbering plan


- a management type: cyclic or sequential
- barring and traffic sharing link categories (see "Link Categories")

CONFIGURATION

ACTIVATION/USE

To make a call to the network, a user can:

- dial a trunk group number


- press an RSD or RSB resource key (see "Resource keys")

If connection between the user and the trunk group is authorized (analysis of barring and traffic sha-
ring link categories: see "Link Categories" and "Barring"), the system selects a line (or channel) in the
trunk group as follows:

Management type cyclic sequential


Trunk line used in the trunk 1st free line following the last se- 1st free line (*), in the program-
group lected med order

(*) Priority is given to "outgoing" lines, then "mixed lines".

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- The maximum number of trunk groups in a system is 120.


- 1 main trunk group
- the others being secondary trunk groups
- The maximum number of lines or channels in a trunk group is 120.
- The total number of lines/channels across all the trunk groups must not exceed 500.
- The trunk group with index 120 may be reserved for Operator Groups (see "Operator stations").
- For an outgoing call, an analog line with predetermined routing (LRP) can be used either exclusively
or in priority by the destination user of this LRP.

DESCRIPTION

An operator station basically makes it possible to distribute calls arriving on the network. Such a station
has the following characteristics:

- camp-on always authorized


- intrusion always authorized
- access to certain programming features

Any station connected to the system can be an Operator Station, but, to have all the features of an
operator, the station must:

- be part of an Operator Group


- have one of the "operator" profiles (see "Resource keys" and "Station profiles"):
Operator profile in mode ... Key system PCX
Resource keys 2 RGMints 2 RGMints

n RSPs (*) 2 RSBs dedicated to the internal


trunk group
1 RAV (**)
Function keys Group supervision Group supervision

Normal/Restricted mode Normal/Restricted mode


LED (***) Traffic overload Traffic overload

(*) n = number of external interfaces; to monitor all the system's external interfaces, connect add-on modules to each operator station.

(**) Virtual Access Resource: used only for camped-on calls.

(***) The "overload" LED only applies to stations with a three-color LED (Reflexes range with the exception of 4003); it indicates:

- : level 1 traffic overload (1 call camped on).


- : station test.
- : level 2 traffic overload (one call camped on for at least 20 seconds, or more calls camped on than there are operators).
- : presence of a system message indicating a serious equipment fault or several less serious system messages.
- : presence of a message (voice, written) or presence of a call in the non answered calls repertory.

OS groups are managed in parallel.

All Operator Groups have the same call numbers (a single Operator Group is active during any par-
ticular time range (see "Time Ranges")).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/6


OPERATOR STATIONS (OPERATOR CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES
GROUPS)

An Operator Group can have:

- stations
- the general bell (see "Connection of a general bell")
- 1 dissuasion message (see "Automatic Welcome /Pre-announcement")

Default Operator Group

This group (index 8):

- is available no matter what the time range


- can have up to 8 members including the general bell
- comes into service ... (see "Activation/Use")

General level

The general level is made up of:

- the Operator Group active in the applicable time range (may include the general bell)
- stations with the "General Monitoring" feature activated (see "Call Monitoring")

It is activated automatically:

- via the dynamic routing mechanism (see "Call distribution")


- via the operator recall mechanism (when a user's station in an external communication is switched
off or the activation of a service has failed)
- in accordance with the predefined settings, in the case of a misdial or when an ISDN access is com-
pletely busy.

By default, the following are programmed:

- OS groups are managed in parallel.


- Operator Groups of index 1 and 2, including the first station of the first board recognized by the
system
- the default group (index 8) including:
- the first station of the first board recognized by the system
- the general call bell

DESCRIPTION

An Operator Station can:

- switch the entire installation to normal or restricted mode, independently of the time range (see
"Normal/Restricted service (system level)")
- reserve a trunk group (the last) for exclusive use of the Operator Stations. Each O.S. in the active
group can use this trunk group for communications with the network.
- activate the background music, coming from a tuner on an external loudspeaker connected to the
system.
- activate forwarding of all internal and external calls intended for the O.S. group to a network des-
tination, defined by a common speed dial number or an internal destination, either:
- by switching the installation into restricted mode (using a programmed key)
- or using a programmed Attendant diversion key

This forwarding can also be automatically activated according to the time range.

The system can be used to program 3 different forwarding destinations:


- the first, for automatic activation by scheduling: this is valid for all time ranges
- the second, for manual activation, by switching the installation to restricted mode on one of the
O.S. in the active group
- the third, by using the operator calls forwarding key pre-programmed with the local or collective
speed dial number for which the calls are intended

Operator call diversion is activated and deactivated in accordance with the following descending order
of priority:

- by forwarding key
- by normal/restricted mode key
- by scheduling.

CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES BARRING

File
BARRING
7

DESCRIPTION

Barring comes into effect after the system has authorized connection between the user and the entered
trunk group (following analysis of the traffic sharing link categories: see "Link Categories").

Barring makes it possible to define whether an internal user (or an access, in the case of transit) is
authorized to make a call to the network, or not (other than by using the collective speed dial numbers),
depending on the prefix (i.e. the first few digits) of the called number.

To do this, the system uses barring link categories (see "Link Categories") and barring tables.

The system has 6 barring tables, numbered 1 to 6: each table corresponds to a level of barring and
can have "authorized" or "unauthorized" prefixes.

The system also uses two barring counters, C1 and C2:

- C1 states the maximum number of authorized digits if an authorized prefix has been recognized
or if there is no authorized prefix in the level of barring associated with the call. The default value
is 22.
- C2 states the maximum number of digits authorized if the dialed prefix is not programmed in the
level of barring associated with the call., while this level has at least one authorized prefix. The de-
fault value is 4.

END OF DIALING DETECTION
8

DESCRIPTION

On analog trunk lines, end of dialing detection makes it possible to define the moment when the
system can release the DTMF receivers and carry out the bi-directional switching of the line.

The system uses the end of dialing prefix table to ascertain the length (number of digits) of the numbers
transmitted. A counter, equal to or superior than 0, is associated with each prefix.

When a prefix has not been configured in this table, the system uses a reference counter.

On digital trunk lines, the trunk sends a message telling the system to carry out the two-way swit-
ching. By default, the system carries out this commutation after a time-out simulating going off-hook.

CONFIGURATION

SPLITTING
9

DESCRIPTION

The splitting mechanism enables a user to dial a number on an analog trunk line or behind a PCX,
without having to wait for any dialing splits.

It is accessed:

- by manual dialing
- by automatic dialing (last number redial, temporary memory number, speed dial number)

Splitting can be of two types:

- tone detection: TONE in the splitting prefix table


- pause: PAUSE in the splitting prefix table.

The mechanism applies at three levels:

- During line seizure:


- if the splitting is TONE, dialing is possible as soon as the PCX has recognized the tone trans-
mitted by the trunk during a validation time-out. If, after expiry of a time-out, no tone has been
recognized, the system releases the line.
- if the splitting is PAUSE, dialing is transmitted after expiry of a programmable time-out, (diffe-
rent for private or public trunk lines).
- Intermediary splitting prefixes:
Dialing according to the prefixes in the splitting prefix table, is transmitted after tone detection or
after a splitting time-out with the same principles as for the line seizure.
- Splitting prefixes defined in the personal or collective speed dial numbers:
A personal or collective speed dial number can have one splitting character (symbolized by "!"). The
splitting method used (TONE or PAUSE) is the one programmed in the splitting prefix table.

DESCRIPTION

The system can automatically re-route:

- a call from the network and destined for the active Operator Group, or the default Operator Group
(see "Operator stations")
- a call arriving from the network and currently in transit
- a DDI call (Direct Dialing Inward) from the network and destined for a station or a Hunting Group
- an external call on a "personalized" or "reserved" line: all calls arriving on a personalized external
line are routed directly to a station or Hunting Group, depending on the system's normal or restric-
ted mode. Furthermore, a "personalized" line may be "reserved", i.e. a call on this line can neither
be picked up nor monitored
- an internal call
- a call from the private network

The system treats simultaneous calls destined for an Operator Group according to the following prio-
rities:

- external hold recall, delayed or otherwise


- internal hold recall, delayed or otherwise
- external callback
- external call
- internal callback
- call from an operator station
- internal call
- Operator Group call
- Hunting Group call

The system routes an internal incoming call depending on the following criteria:

- directory number of the destination station programmed in the main numbering plan
- type of call: private or not
- station accessible or not
- destination station resource keys (see "Resource keys")
- status of the resources: free or busy (see "Resource keys")
- features active on the destination set: internal forwarding (see "Forwarding"), monitoring (see "Call
Monitoring"), filtering (see "Manager/secretary screening"), external forwarding (see "External
Forwarding")
- dynamic routing parameters programmed for a resource, the station or the hunting group

The system routes an external incoming call depending on the following criteria:

- PCX forwarding activated by an operator (see "PCX forwarding")

TIME RANGES
11

Prior to version R2.0, the current time range was defined by the current hour during the day. Starting
with R2.0, the time ranges depend also on the day of the week and on holidays. This new set-up offers
more flexibility by allowing different time ranges depending on whether the company is closed (wee-
kend, holidays) or open.

DESCRIPTION

A day can be divided into a maximum of 7 time ranges each varying in duration. The time ranges
allow the definition of:

- the system's operating mode: N/R (see sheet "Normal/restricted service"). This mode is used in
the mechanisms of call distribution, discrimination, traffic sharing and integrated voice server
(Automated Attendant and Audiotex). The system's operating mode is also used to define each
user's operating mode (starting with R2.0, the mechanism described on the sheet "Normal/restric-
ted service" is no longer used).

- the active OS group (see "Operator stations" and "Specific operator services"): one of 8 possible
OS groups assigned to each time range.

- the OS group's call forwarding state: configured for each time range with the same recipient
for all ranges.

Time ranges are also used in pre-announcement and welcome messages functions.

CONFIGURATION

T To modify time ranges by MMC-PM5 (Expert View) only:


- By MMC-PM5 (Expert view): Time ranges -> Start, N/R mode, Att. Grp., Att.div.

56 time ranges may be configured: 7 (by day) x 8 (days of the week + holidays).

Nota : By default, only data for the first 2 time ranges are defined from Monday to Friday; the de-
fault values vary by country.

The list of holidays is completely independent from the list defined in the ARS mechanisms.

The data defined for a day (time ranges and pre-announcement) may be copied in order
to assign them to one or several other data.

Description
System's operating mode: normal or restricted service is used in the following mechanisms:

- call distribution

- network lines discrimination

- network lines traffic sharing

- assignment of network lines for transmission of collective speed dial numbers

- Automated Attendant: normal service corresponds to the Automated Attendant opening hours, res-
tricted service corresponds to the closing hours. Depending on the time, the following services have
different parameters: company's welcome message, * question, language choice, direct call, menu
and sub-menus configuration, default function, etc.

- Audiotext: normal service corresponds to the Audiotex opening hours, restricted service corres-
ponds to the closing hours. Depending on the time, the following services have different parame-
ters: * question, language choice and information message identifier.

Switching from NORMAL MODE to RESTRICTED MODE and vice versa depends on the following pa-
rameters:

- the time (and therefore the time range)


- the Normal/Restricted mode function on the Operator Station

FORWARDING OF ALL EXTERNAL INCOMING CALLS

The system is made up of two public numbering plans, one of which is used in normal service while
the other is used in restricted service.

The restricted public numbering plan can be configured in such a way that certain DDI numbers are
redirected to external destinations (using the group directory or the ARS mechanism) while others (Fax
for example) reach their intended internal destinations.

Configuring the public numbering plan in restricted mode


The public numbering plan for restricted service mode can contain a maximum of 99 entries (0 by de-
fault).

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Numbering -> Restricted numbering plan


- by MMC-Station: NumPln -> ResNum

The configuration (beginning and end of range, base, NMT) is identical to that of the public numbering
plan for normal service mode (PubNum).

If the destination of the DDI number is the same in normal and in restricted service, the 2 numbering
plans must have the same configurations.

For more details, see “Numbering Plans" in the MMC-Station section.

Activation/Deactivation
Forwarding can be activated/deactivated from any station with an N/R Mode key. After pressing this
key, dial the operator code.

Notas :

It can also be activated by configuring the time ranges.

The normal/restricted service configuration for each user and for each time range is no lon-
ger available starting with R2.0; the system's normal/restricted operating mode is used (see
sheet “Time ranges”).

Description
Depending on the time range, the system operates in either normal or restricted mode. The service

Starting with R2.0, a noteworthy address "LockBypass" allows to override this mechanism:

- LockBypass = 1 (default value): mechanism described above


- LockBypass = 0: a user in restricted service mode who unlocks his locked station, switches back to

DDI numbers can:

- contain up to 8 digits.
- use the numbering recovery mechanism described below.

NUMBERING RECOVERY

Description
When, in an existing installation, a new range of DDI numbers needs to be added, and the new se-
quence allocated by the public exchange overlaps the existing range, the installer can make use of the
"DDI with more than 4 digits" mechanism.

Exemple :

Consider an existing system with the DDI numbers (XX = any possible "intercity prefix", "intercity code"
and "recall prefix" – these can vary from country to country):

- XX 1 41 23 40 10 to XX 1 41 23 40 19 assigned to stations 120 to 129


- XX 1 41 23 41 00 to XX 1 41 23 41 19 assigned to stations 130 to 149

The exchange allocates the new range XX 1 41 33 40 15 to XX 1 41 33 40 24: these numbers are
assigned to stations 150 to 159.

As described below, the numbering plan does not allow:

- use of the whole DDI range available; in actual fact, in order to route a DDI number to a called
station, the system only analyzes the last 4 digits of the number received from the network and the
DDI sequences XX 1 41 23 40 10 and XX 1 41 33 40 15 have in common, the range of the last 4
digits 40 15 to 40 19.
- transmission of the exact number of the caller (see "ISDN services") since the system would require
two installation numbers (XX 1 41 23 and XX 1 41 33) in order to operate correctly, which is im-
possible.

Configuration
T Configuring the installation number:
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Numbering -> Installation Numbers
- by MMC-Station: Global -> InsNum -> Public

T Filling in the substitution table:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Numbering -> DDI Number Modification Table

- by MMC-Station: NumPln -> PubNum

Activation/Use
Functional analysis

A "DDI with more than 4 digits" mechanism is based on the analysis of all the received digits. They are
modified using a substitution table and analyzed by the Public numbering plan. Programming such a
mechanism requires you to have a global view of your DDI sequences.

Procedure to follow

- check the DDI sequences


- deduce the installation number by removing the "intercity prefix", "intercity code" if found
- deduce the minimum number of digits required to cover the DDI ranges
- analyze the remaining digits and create the DDI modification table
- configure the DDI numbering plan
- activate the mechanism

Application using the above example

- DDI sequences:
- 1st sequence: 1 41 23 40 10 to 1 41 23 40 19 for stations 120 to 129
- 2nd sequence: 1 41 23 41 00 to 1 41 23 41 19 for stations 130 to 149
- 3rd sequence: 1 41 33 40 15 to 1 41 33 40 24 for stations 150 to 159
- Deduction of the installation number:
Digits 1 41 are common to the 3 sequences of DDI numbers: these 3 digits will make up the ins-
tallation number. THE "INSTALLATION NUMBER" FIELD CAN BE LEFT EMPTY IF THERE IS NO
COMMON DIGIT.
- Deduction of the minimum number of digits to cover the DDI ranges:
1 or 2 digits, at least, are necessary in order to join a series of stations.
- 1st sequence: 1 41 23 40 1 0 to 1 41 23 40 1 9: 10 stations with 1 digit (0 to 9)
- 2nd sequence: 1 41 23 41 00 to 1 41 23 41 19: 20 stations with 2 digits (00 to 19)
- 3rd sequence: 1 41 33 40 15 to 1 41 33 40 24: 10 stations with 2 digits (15 to 24)
- analysis of the remaining digits (by removing the installation number and the digits necessary to

2/4 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

cover the DDI ranges) and creation of the DDI modification table:
- 1st sequence: 1 41 23 40 10 to 1 41 23 40 19
- 2nd sequence: 1 41 23 41 00 to 1 41 23 41 19
- 3rd sequence: 1 41 33 40 15 to 1 41 33 40 24

The remaining digits are to be replaced by the substitution digits ,which, themselves, will be ana-
lyzed in the DDI numbering plan. To do this, apply the following rule:
Minimum number of digits to cover the DDI range + Length of the substitution number =
4 (i.e. the maximum number of digits as defined in the DDI numbering plan).
For example, one can:
- for the 1st sequence: substitute "23 40 1" by "810" (in fact, "810" + 1 digit from 0 to 9 = 4 digits)
- for the 2nd sequence: substitute "23 41" by "82" (in fact, "82" + 2 digits from 00 to 19 = 4 digits)
- for the 3rd sequence: substitute "33 40" by "83" (in fact, "83" + 2 digits from 15 to 24 = 4 digits)
- Creation of the DDI numbering plan (from the DDI numbers modification table):
Function Begin End Base

Station -- 9 120
Station -- -- 130

Station -- -- 150

Result of the above example

The DDI number received from the network (here, XX 1 41 33 40 20) is analyzed by the system as
follows:

- removal of any intercity prefix, etc... as well as the installation number: leaves the number 33 40
20.
- analysis of this number in the substitution table (the mechanism being authorized, this analysis is
carried out automatically for all DDI numbers received): the system deducts the number 8320
- analysis of the DDI number thus obtained in the DDI numbering plan: the system makes station
155 ring.

DESCRIPTION

The default dialing mode on ISDN lines is digit by digit. At the press of a key, users can employ block
dialing to access a range of services:

- addition of a sub-address to the number dialed


- activation of calling line identification restriction, i.e. the caller's identity is not transmitted to the
called party
- for a station with soft keys only, transmission of user-to-user signaling (UUS), i.e. a text message
on a station with a display.

The "Calling Line Identification Restriction" function can also be activated in digit-by-digit dialing
mode for all stations (see "Making/Answering a call").

When a call is received, the "malicious call identification" service is available This service, availa-
ble by subscription to the network, involves the network operator recording certain call details either
during the communication or during the release phase after the caller has hung up, (numbers of both
parties; date and time of call; sub-address of caller if applicable).

The keypad dialing features offer access (in transparent fashion) to the services provided by the pu-
blic network operator (the functional services of the particular operator).

ISDN SERVICES CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES

KEYBOARD FACILITIES (KEYPAD DIALLING)

In certain countries, the public ISDN operator provides services that can be activated using the ETSI
ETS 300 122 protocol (in addition to these generic services, each public operator defines how these
services are handled in their national specifications).

To access these services, the system establishes transparent communications between the public ex-
change and the internal users, who can then key in codes and receive a response from the public ex-
change.
This service is available with all station types on an Alcatel OmniPCX system directly connected to the
public exchange (not through a private network).

Up to the version R2.0, the operator services can only be activated from the rest state of the set. From
the version R2.01, in addition to activation from the rest state, it is possible to activate the services of
the operator during the call (for instance using the "conference operator" service to set up a conference
with 2 outside parties while only using a single B channel)

Activation/Deactivation

From the rest state (to R2.0)

Operator services can be activated if the "Transparent access to system functions in idle state" flag is
active and if the user DID number is configured in the public dialling plan.

Nota : The placing of the flag is only necessary if the service codes are carried in the "Keypad Fa-
cility" information element; in some countries (Finland for instance), codes are contained in
the "Called party number" element and the placing of the flag is then ignored (codes are
issued without special processing).

To activate the service:

- by manual dialling: dial the ISDN trunk group seizure code, then press * or # followed by the
operator service code (22 figures maximum).
- by using a "Dialling" programmed key: this key is programmed with the trunk group seizure
code and all or part of the service code.
- by using a "Block dialling" programmed key.

During a call (from R2.01

Operator services can be activated during an outside party call (incoming or outgoing call on digital
line) if the "Access transparent to system functions in conversation" flag is active.

DESCRIPTION

CCBS - Completion of Calls to Busy Subscriber - is a complement of the ETSI service provided by the
system on T0/T2 public exchange connections.

This function can be considered like an extension of the "Automatic call back on busy set" service. CCBS
requires a service subscription with the operator offering this function and can be activated equally well
for an incoming call as for an outgoing call.

CONFIGURATION

T CCBS on outgoing call: authorize the set to use the service or not:
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View):Subscribers/Basestations List -> Subscribers/Basestations List -
> Details -> Features -> "Callback"

T CCBS on incoming call: check the following settings:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View):External Lines -> Incoming Call Handling -> Public Line -> On
Busy = Release System Misc. -> Feature Design -> Call Waiting/Automatic Camp-On

T Modify (or not) the timeout during which the CCBS is active in the system (30 minutes by default);
at the end of the timeout, the CCBS is cancelled:
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous -> Memory Read/Write -> Timer La-
bels -> "BookBusTim"
- by MMC-Station: Global -> Rd/Wr -> Timer -> "BookBusTim" -> Return -> Memory

CCBS ACTIVATION/CANCELLATION ON OUTGOING CALLS

When a call is made to a public network user B whose line is busy, CCBS enables a user A with an
Alcatel OmniPCX Office system to leave a call back request at the public exchange. When the public
exchange informs the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system that B is free, Alcatel OmniPCX Office calls back
A, and when A answers, it makes an automatic call back to B.

CCBS ACTIVATION/CANCELLATION ON INCOMING CALLS

When a public network user (A) calls a busy Alcatel OmniPCX Office system set (B), A can activate the
CCBS service provided by the public exchange. When the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system informs the
public exchange that B is free, the public exchange calls back A, and when A answers it makes an
automatic call back to B.

DESCRIPTION

The PCX provides the following services for S0 stations:

- suspension, which consists in suspending an internal or external communication in progress on a


basic access and picking it up later from the same S0 station relocated on the basic access or ano-
ther S0 station connected to the same basic access. The communication can be identified by a code
before being suspended. This code is used to locate the call.
- call waiting, which enables an S0 station to be informed that an external call is intended for it even
if no B channel is available on its basic access. The S0 station can ignore, reject or accept the call.

SPECIFIC FEATURES OF SO STATIONS CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES

ACTIVATION/USE

Activation of the various services depends on the S0 station ; refer to the station user guide.

cancellation

Cancellation of the various services depends on the S0 station; refer to the station user guide.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- A communication which is suspended and not retrieved after expiry of the suspension time-out is
released if internal and re-routed to the general level (see "Operator Stations") if external.
- A user cannot suspend a call if he or she already has a correspondent on hold.
- The user who suspended a call is charged for the entire communication, before suspension and
after retrieval.
- The number of calls suspended simultaneously is limited and depends on the size of the cabinet.
- Call waiting on an S0 station is limited by a non-modifiable time-out.
- The number of calls waiting on the same access is limited to 2.
- Malicious call identification cannot be requested after a call transfer or suspension.
- The user is informed by the network of the reason for the rejection of a malicious call identification
request.
- Apart from the caller's identity, the network records the time of identification request activation and
the number dialed by the caller.
- Multiple directory numbers: when an S0 option (Reflexes stations) is initialized, the system assigns
1, 2 or 3 directory numbers, depending on the country. With PM5, you can:
- add users for the S0 option (individually or in groups), up to the system capacity. There is no
automatic renumbering after adding users, so the installer should be careful to preserve the
coherence of the numbering plan;
- delete individual users (NB: the first user of an option cannot be deleted separately; deleting
the first user erases all the other users of the same option).

NUMBERS
CLIP and COLP are services that depend upon the public network (France: COLP is not provided)

These functions are provided by Alcatel OmniPCX Office systems connected to a public ISDN network
(T0/T2 access).

Definitions
CLIP (Calling Line Identification Presentation): identification number sent by the caller when making
an outgoing ISDN call.

COLP (Connected Line Presentation): identification number returned by the called party to the caller.

ALTERNATIVE SYSTEM CLIP

Description
This function is used to configure the calling number (CLIP) sent to correspondents on outgoing ISDN
calls. For example, it enables a company with several sites always to send the same number to external
called parties.

On an outgoing external call, the number transmitted is:

- the installation number completed by the DDI number of the caller (or the Operator Group num-
ber), if the "Alternative CLIP number" is not configured.
- the "Alternative CLIP number", if configured.

DESCRIPTION

The CLI (Calling Line Identification) function for APA (Analogue Public Access) boards allows the caller
number to be received through the analogue switched public network.

This function is based on the CLIP (Calling Line Identification Presentation) additional service; the CLIP
information is transmitted via FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) asynchronous signals in on-hook mode
(bell).

The FSK signal can be detected in two different ways: centrally at the CPU level or locally via the APA
board (CLIDSP daughter board).
The central detection at the CPU board level is not available in the USA (local detection only via CLIDSP
daughter board on APA).

DESCRIPTION

This feature makes it possible to immediately route an external incoming call to the called party's voice
mailbox if the line is busy (Busy degree 1 or degree 2). The caller hears a specific welcome message
and can, if he/she wishes, leave a message in the called party's voice mailbox.

Dynamic routing to the voice mailbox is immediate even when the dynamic routing timer is configured.

The service is activated if there is an incoming call to a busy set and:

- for all the sets if the "DynRoutBsy" flag = 1


- or if "DynRoutBsy" = 0, but only on the sets that have access to this function

CONFIGURATION

T To globally activate the service, or not:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View):
System Miscellaneous -> Memory Read/Write -> Misc. Labels -> "DynRoutBsy"
- by MMC-Station:
Global -> Rd/Wr -> Address -> "DynRoutBsy" -> Return -> Memory

Call forwarding

Routing to a voice mailbox is not performed if the user called has programmed the forward function
on his/her set. The service becomes valid when the forward function is cancelled.

Forward on busy

If the user has programmed his/her voice mailbox as the destination of Call forwarding on busy, the
internal or external caller will also hear the message.

Default value

After a cold reset, the "DynRoutBsy" flag is set to 0 (service inactive) by default and set-by-set activation
is cancelled (active in France).

Attention :

The mechanism is also active if the destination of T1 dynamic routing is a set instead of the VMU. In
this case, the destination of dynamic routing will be rung immediately if the set called is busy.

There is no indication of service activation on the sets.

CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES BUSY TONE DETECTION

File
BUSY TONE DETECTION
24

DESCRIPTION

Offered starting with version R2.0 of the software, the tone detection mechanism allows analogue
network line connections to be released without back forwarding of releasing protocol (e.g. polarity
inversion). By default, the mechanism is active in all countries.

The tone detection is madeby the system's DSP (Digital Signal Processor); it may be enabled line by line
(APA or ATA interfaces).
This mechanism is used to allow analogue lines to be joined (external forwarding, external dynamic
routing, DISA transit, external transfer) without polarity inversion.

CONFIGURATION

T Enable, line by line, the tone detection mechanism through DHM-PM5 (Expert View) only:
External lines -> Analogue access -> Details -> Check "❏ Busy Tone Detection"

T Modify the automatic release's timeout value (or security timeout) of the lines in case of analogue
joining (without other release mechanism), through DHM-PM5 (Expert View) only:
System Miscellaneous -> Feature Design -> Part 5 -> Automatic Release for Analogue Tru-
nk-to-trunk joining

Values of the security timeout:

- from 1 to 127 hours.


- by default: 6 hours.
- 0 = no timeout.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- The number of DSPs assigned to tone detection is limited to 6 per module; these resources are sha-
red among the various connected LR interfaces.

MAKING/ANSWERING A CALL
25

DESCRIPTION

A call can be either:

- internal, or
- external.

MAKING A CALL
Only an internal call can have 3 types of destination:

- a station
- a station in a Hunting Group (operator or stations)
- all the stations in a Broadcast Group, in the case of a broadcast call

To make a call, the user can either choose to go off hook first (obligatory if the station does not have
a loudspeaker) or not.

Then, depending on the user's station, an internal or external call can be made either by:

- manual dialing:
- on the numeric keypad, or
- on the alphabetic keypad (Dial by name function:: concerns the programmed numbers in the
internal directory or the collective speed dial)
- pre-recorded dialing:
- direct call key
- repetition of last number/numbers retransmission list (function Bis) ; the last number transmit-
ted by the station is automatically memorized with its corresponding sub-address. This function
is provided for the stations without display screen regardless of the system's software version
and for the stations with display screen for software versions prior to R2.0. Starting with R2.0,
the stations with display screen may access a list of the last 10 numbers called (internal or ex-
ternal) and thus select in the list a number to be transmitted.
- transmission of the number stored in the temporary memory; the last number transmitted from
a station can be transferred from the "Redial" memory to a "temporary memory" Starting with
version R2.0, it is possible to save in this temporary memory any number incoming or outgoing
(see paragraph “Additional information” for more details)
- transmission of a personal speed dial number; it is possible to save numbers in this directory
(see paragraph “Additional information” for more details)
- call back a number in the directory of unanswered calls: this directory contains the unanswe-
red external calls, with or without User to User Signalling (see "ISDN Services") and the internal
calls with UUS (see "ISDN Services") automatically memorised by the system.
- for external calls only, transmission of a collective speed dial number (including emergency
numbers and collective speed dial numbers with speed dial rights = 0: see "Link Categories

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


MAKING/ANSWERING A CALL CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES

file") created by MMC.


- for external calls only, transmission of an emergency number - one of 5 factory-preset num-
bers which cannot be modified by MMC. These numbers are different from those programmed
as collective speed dial numbers.

When making a call, the user can:

- protect the call (in particular data communications) against the camp-on tone and third party in-
trusion (see "Camp-on on busy station or group" and "Intercom intrusion on free"); these protections
are programmable for each station and for all the calls.
- opt not to disclose the caller's identity; this "Calling line identification restriction"can be activated
permanently by programming it into each station for all calls or it can be activated call by call,
using a programmed key.

Auto. call setup on going off hook: this service enables an authorised user to call a correspondent
pre-programmed by MMC, simply by going off-hook or pressing the Hands-free key, either immedia-
tely or after a timeout. The destination can be:

- an internal user (individual)


- a Hunting Group or Operator Group,
- an external user (by collective speed dial number)

Broadcast Call: this service enables an "emitting" user belonging to a Broadcast Group to send a spo-
ken message lasting no more than 20 seconds to the free stations in this group equipped with a louds-
peaker. The destination stations are unable to answer this message.

RECEIVING A CALL
An incoming call is signaled by ringing of the station. The ringing rate varies according to whether the
call is internal or external.

A monoline station (see "Resource keys") can only receive one call at a time. The user of this type of
station can only answer this call by going off hook.

A multiline station (see "Resource keys") can take several calls at once. The answer mode can be:

- manual: the user can select the call he wishes to answer and even ignore all incoming calls if he
wishes to make a call
- automatic: the system determines what type of call is at the station (see "Answering camped-on
calls")
- auto-answer or Intercom mode (on a set with the Hands-Free feature and for internal calls only):
the station "answers" the call with the highest priority after a specific ring tone, and goes into hands
free mode (see also "Headset Features").

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- To use the directory of unanswered calls in a parallel group of stations (see "Hunting Groups"), the
first station in the group, on creation by MMC, must be a station with a display.

- In "Answering a call: manual connection" mode, an automatic callback or a hold reminder have
priority: the user cannot answer another call.

- During group broadcasting, all the stations involved are considered to be busy.

- To stop broadcasting to his own station, a user can go off hook or press the "Release" key.

- A forwarded station receives the broadcast message.

- If all members of the called Broadcast Group are busy, the broadcast call will be unsuccessful.

- The first Z station is considered as a fax and is therefore protected by default against intrusion and
the camp-on tone.

- Specific to Brazil: The DDC Protection flag (accessible by Subscribers and Base stations List ->
Details -> Service category -> Part 2-> DDC Protection and by External Lines -> External Access
Table -> Details -> DDC Protection) makes it possible to reject all incoming calls which the caller
tries to charge to the called party (collect call).

- List of retransmitted numbers (R2.0): a retransmission list can include a maximum of 10 internal or
external numbers; this limit may be reduced depending on the keys' and directories' key pool use.

If a call arrives while the retransmission list is in use, the call is switched to standby.

- Temporary save of a number (R2.0): a number may be saved in the temporary memory under the
following conditions:

- when communication is in progress


- during a call phase.
- during review of the standby calls.
- during review of the unanswered calls directory (text mail).
- during use of the retransmitted numbers list.
A saved incoming external number in temporary memory cannot be directly retransmitted; the sei-
zure number of the trunk group used for the call must be dialled first.
Group call: as long as there is no answer, the group call is saved; after answering, the number of

- Saving a number in the individual directory (R2.0): a number may be saved in the individual direc-
tory under the following conditions:

- when communication is in progress


- during review of the unanswered calls directory (text mail).

DESCRIPTION

2 types of priority call can be made:

- a call from a bank alarm system


- a voice call (or a call through a preprogrammed key)

Call from a bank alarm system (automatic call)

The bank alarm device is connected to the PCX by means of an SLI-board Z interface.

The call is triggered by the Z subscriber going off-hook.

The external destination is called using a collective speed dial number. The call is subject to checks on
barring and traffic sharing link categories as well as collective speed dial rights (see "Link Categories").

The call takes priority over ordinary calls in progress. If all lines are busy, the system releases an ordi-
nary call in order to set up a priority call.

Call from a programmed key (manual call)

The call destination (collective speed dial number or external number) is associated with a program-
med key on a Reflexes or DECT terminal.

Priority levels are defined to ensure that an automatic or manual call cannot cut off a higher-level call.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- The bank alarm device cannot be connected to a Z interface behind a Reflexes station.
- Several priority calls can be set up simultaneously
- A priority call may fail if the public exchange is saturated, if the destination is busy or if it collides
with an incoming call during the "setup" phase.
- The event "R_PRIORITY_CALL" – specifying the number of the station on which the call was released
– is generated in the PCX history table whenever a call is released to make way for a priority call.
- The bank alarm device's directory number cannot be a private one.
- To avoid the system releasing a basic call on a B channel belonging to the trunk group assigned
to the bank alarm device, when a B channel is free in another trunk group, it is advisable to con-
figure all the accesses on a single trunk group.
- All calls made from an S0 terminal are considered as priority calls if a priority level >0 is defined

ANSWERING CAMPED-ON CALLS
28

DESCRIPTION

When one or more callers (if the station has the necessary resources) are camped on a subscriber (see
"Camp-on on busy station or group"), the subscriber can either:

- consult the identity of the camped callers, if the station has soft keys
- answer (consult) one or more camped-on calls, without releasing the current communication, or
- answer a camped-on call by releasing its current communication. In this case, the system determi-
nes which camped-on call is presented to the station according to the priority of the calls camped-
on.

The level of priority depends on three criteria:

- the type of caller: internal, external or OS (for example, if a station has a caller camped on but has
no resources left, an OS call "breaks" the first camp-on and is itself camped on)
- the type of called party: Operator Group, Hunting Group or station
- the type of call: simple call, recall (for example after transfer failure, see "Conference") or hold re-
minder

The system allocates the following descending order of priority:

- external hold recall, delayed or otherwise


- internal hold recall, delayed or otherwise
- external callback
- external call
- internal callback
- call from an operator station
- internal call
- Operator Group call
- Hunting Group call

THREE PARTY CALLS
29

The operating mode, Europe or US, cannot be configured with MMC (station or PM5). This
mode is globally specified for the system when configured in the factory.

DESCRIPTION

3-party calls are:

- call enquiry, prior to the following:


- shuttle
- conference
- transfer

Enquiry/Hold

A station involved in an internal or external conversation can make a new internal or external call using
either:
- one of the means described in "Making/Answering a call"
- or by answering a camped-on call (see "Camp-on on busy station or group")
- or by picking up a call intended for another station (see "Call Pick-Up" and "Call Parking/Parked
Call Retrieval")

The current correspondent is automatically placed on hold by the system. This type of hold is said to
be "exclusive" because only the user which activated it can retrieve the correspondent.

A user can place a correspondent on exclusive hold when:


- he is in conversation with the correspondent
- he has called the correspondent and hears the ringing tone
- he has called the correspondent and hears the camped-on tone

"Manual" call holding is also possible. In this case, it is said to be "common" because all the users su-
pervising the resource on hold can retrieve the correspondent (RSP resource only).

A user can only place a correspondent with whom he is in conversation on common hold.

Hold recall: When a user goes on hook with a correspondent on hold, the system recalls the user.
This can be either immediate (overlooked hold) or time-delayed. When the hold recall is time-delayed,
the user can make an outgoing call or answer an incoming call: the hold recall will take place at the
end of the timeout or at the end of the new communication.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/6


THREE PARTY CALLS CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES

Shuttle

This service enables the user to speak alternately with his correspondent on line and a correspondent
on hold.

Conference

This service enables an authorized user in an enquiry call to set up a call with two correspondents si-
multaneously.

Handover

This service enables a call to be setup between the correspondent on hold and the correspondent on
line. This latter was not necessarily in conversation with the user¡ Transfer can take place either:

- after conversation with the second correspondent


- when the user hears the ringing tone (the second correspondent has not answered)
- when the user is camped-on on the second correspondent's station
- when the user has activated paging for this second correspondent (who has not answered)
- during the routing phase of the second call, after dialing an external number

- Follow-me: forwarding is activated from the destination station.


- Do Not Disturb : the user refuses all calls: internal calls are released and external calls are trans-
ferred to the operator station.
- Immediate group call forwarding : calls sent to all groups linked to the user are transferred to
another programmed destination number (in advance ot on activation of the service).
- Immediate call forwarding: individual calls are routed to another destination (whether set, group
or VMU) programmed in advance or on activation of the service).
- Forward to text answering : internal calls are released after display of a text message and ex-
ternal calls are routed to the operator station.
- selective forwarding : depending on the callers' identification (call number), the calls may or may
not be routed to a pre-programmed destination.
- Forward to pager: calls are routed to the called party's pager.
- Forward on busy : when the station is busy, calls are routed to another destination (programmed
in advance or on activation of the service).

- The "Withdraw from group" service is not available on S0 stations.
- A "Master forwarding" or "Selective forwarding" key (M. Immd', M. Busy', M. Grp') makes it possible
to activate or cancel the corresponding forwarding. Furthermore, the icon or LED associated with
this key, indicates when a forwarding is activated. All the preprogrammed or fixed keys are such
keys.
- The same station may have a "personal call forwarding" Master key and a "Group call forwarding"
Master key.
- A "text answering" forwarding can only be activated on a station with a display.
- The "local" type of calls to be forwarded includes internal calls as well as those coming from the
private network.
- Forward to text answering: when a network call from a station without UUS capability (a Z station
for example) arrives at a station that has activated forwarding to text answering, the call is forwar-
ded to the Operator station, which also receives the text message from the called station.

DESCRIPTION

The system can be used to create relations between manager-secretary stations so that the "secretary"
station can screen calls intended for the "manager" station, in other words, answer calls intended for
the manager station and then put the correspondents through if necessary.

In a manager-secretary relation, the "secretary station" can be a Hunting Group (see "Hunting
Groups").

All the stations in a manager-secretary relation must be multiline.

CONFIGURATION

T To create the manager-secretary relations:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Manager-secretary Relations
- by MMC-Station: TerPro -> MgrSec

T For each station, authorize the type of calls (local, external, or both) to be screened:
- by MMC-PM5: Subscribers/Basestations List -> Subscribers/Basestations List -> Details -

- A secretary station can belong to several manager-secretary relations: the secretary station then
has a filter key (also on the corresponding manager's station) and an RSL key for each manager
station.
- A manager station can belong to several manager-secretary relations: the manager station then
has, for each secretary station, a filter key (also on each secretary station) and an RSL key.
- When the secretary station in a manager-secretary relation is a Hunting Group, the manager sta-
tion has a single filter key but as many RSL keys as there are members in the group.
- Any activation of individual forwarding on the secretary station or the manager station cancels and
replaces the previously active screening.
- Any request for activation of screening is rejected on a secretary station which has already activated
individual call forwarding.

EXTERNAL FORWARDING
35

DESCRIPTION

When external forwarding is activated on a station, its internal and external personal incoming calls
are routed to a network destination, programmed in advance or at activation of the service.

For external incoming calls, the system can manage 2 types of external diversion:

- by joining: the incoming analog line (or B channel) is switched to the outgoing line (or B channel)
by the PCX, the latter handles the barring and traffic sharing link categories of the destination sta-
tion and the lines to be joined (see "Link Categories") and subsequently the connectivity matrix. Both
resources are busy during the entire duration of the call. This type of forwarding does not need a
subscription..
- by re-routing, for ISDN DDI calls only, and on subscription from the network operator: the system
informs the network that the station called is forwarded and specifies the destination. The network
then manages the forwarding (no busy lines). The system takes account of the barring and traffic
sharing link categories of the destination station and the trunk group programmed into the desti-
nation number.

For internal incoming calls, the system performs forwarding by joining.

* Depending on country; not available in France.

DESCRIPTION

All the external calls from the digital network (T0 or T2 accesses) intended for the stations in the instal-
lation can be re-routed to a destination on the network.

First of all, the system manager will have subscribed to "Call Forwarding Unconditional" (CFU) with the
network operator.

There are two subscription formulae:

- for fixed forwarding, i.e. the forwarding destination is programmed into the public exchange and
is always the same.
- for a variable forwarding, i.e. the forwarding destination is specified at activation of the service
and can thus be different at each activation.

Nota : PCX forwarding by CFU is only possible with a point-to-point link (ETSI).

Access to the service is controlled by a password, either:

- in the public exchange: the password given by the network operator is retransmitted to the public
exchange on activation of forwarding.
- in the system: the password is that of the system operator and is not retransmitted to the public
exchange.

To configure the service in the system (so that it correctly transmits the PCX forwarding activation re-
quest) the configuration in the public exchange must take account of the installation's digital links. This
can be of 3 types:

- configuration of type 0: all the digital links connecting the installation to the public exchange are
configured into a single "group" (equivalent to a trunk group) in the public exchange.
- configuration of type 1: the installation is connected to the public exchange by "groups" of links
and isolated digital links.
- configuration of type 2: the installation is connected to the public exchange by several "groups" of
digital links.

Depending on the type of configuration in the public exchange, it waits for one or more PCX forwar-
ding activation requests:

- in a type 0 configuration, a single activation request for the entire group of links
- in a type 1 configuration, an activation request for each link connecting the installation to the ex-
change
- in a type 2 configuration, an activation request for each group of links

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


RENVOI PCX * CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES

The activation request is made via a trunk group containing one of the installation's digital links, defi-
ned either:

- on programming the "PCX forwarding" key and, failing which, at the time of service activation, in
a type 0 configuration
- only if the diversion is variable, at programming of the "PCX forwarding" key and, failing which,
at the time of service activation, in a type 1 or 2 configuration
- only if diversion is variable, on programming the "PCX diversion" key and, failing which, at the
time of service activation, in a type 2 configuration; However, in this type of configuration, the sys-
tem will not use this trunk group, but that programmed in address "PCXDBdl" which should contain
a single digital link for each of the "groups" in the public exchange allocated to the installation.

TRANSMISSION OF DTMF CODES (OR
38
END-TO-END SIGNALING)
DESCRIPTION

A station can dial either:

- in decadic mode, or
- in DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequencies)

In order to use the services of a server or a telephone answering device, a station must use DTMF dia-
ling so that the PCX can forward the digits dialed to this server without analyzing them.

A DTMF dialing station does this implicitly since it generates the DTMF dialing itself.

A decadic dialing station must activate the DTMF end-to-end signaling function. The digits dialed
are then converted into DTMF dialing.

"DTMF end-to-end signaling" can be activated either:

- manually, during internal or external conversation


- automatically, via a pre-recorded number in which a "forced DTMF end-to-end signaling" cha-
racter is programmed, possibly followed by digits to be transmitted in DTMF:
- in the personal speed dial numbers (internal or external number)
- in the collective speed dial numbers (external number)
- on a direct call key (internal or external number)
- automatically, during an internal or external conversation, via DTMF end-to-end signaling pro-
gramming for each station or system.

CONFIGURATION

END-TO-END SIGNALING)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- When "DTMF end-to-end signaling" is forced in a pre-recorded number, the digits then to be sent
in voice frequencies can be either pre-recorded or dialed by the user when he makes the call.
- The character symbolizing "Forced DTMF end-to-end signaling" is the slash ("/"). This character also
introduces a 5-second pause (non-modifiable) before sending the rest of the number in DTMF end-
to-end signaling; to introduce a 10 second pause: xxxx // xxxx.
- When a number with "Forced DTMF end-to-end signaling" is recorded in the "Redial" or "Temporary
number" memory, the number is transmitted and the end-to-end signaling service activated when
the content of these memories is recalled. However, the digits to be sent in voice frequencies are
not retransmitted if they were dialed by the user at the time of making the call.
- The number of "Forced DTMF end-to-end signaling" characters and digits to be sent in voice fre-
quency format depend on the total number of digits authorized in programming a speed dial entry
or call key and the number of digits forming the directory number of the called server.
- The system makes it possible to program the DTMF end-to-end signaling feature in conversation
which, when it is dialed, enables the activation of the end-to-end signaling and the transmission of
the character "**", frequently requested by the voice servers (see "Configuration").
- DTMF end-to-end signaling:
- when DTMF end-to-end signaling is active for the system or station in conversation, access to
the features in conversation is no longer offered (except for DTMF analog stations that have
access to these features via the intermediate of the "R" key).
- to carry out an enquiry call on a monoline station, DTMF end-to-end signaling must first be
cancelled by pressing on a key programmed "DTMF end-to-end signaling". A multiline station
uses a resource key.
- DTMF end-to-end signaling can be deactivated for the current call by pressing a soft key or
DTMF programmed key ■ (access to features in conversation and to enquiry calls is performed
as it was before activating this function).

DESCRIPTION

An authorized user can inform another internal user with a portable receiver (or "bleep") that he is
trying to contact him on the telephone.

Paging is carried out depending on the paging device connected to the PCX, either:

- by suffix, i.e. after calling the user to be paged, with the latter not answering the telephone
- par "mode 4" prefix: the caller dials the paging prefix then, depending on the device, makes a voice
announcement or dials a pager number. The called party dials the paging answer number
- by "mode 2" prefix (using the ESPA protocol): the caller dials the paging number followed by the
number for the device (it is a good idea to make pager numbers match station numbers). The cal-
led party dials the answer number followed by his station number.

CONFIGURATION

DESCRIPTION

Text mail
A user who has a station with display can send a text message to another internal user who has a dis-
play and Message LED, either:

- whilst out of communication


- during call setup phase, whatever the called party's status

The system offers 27 pre-programmed messages. Some of these include a variable part (for example,
a date or room number, etc.) that has to be filled in. A user who has a station with soft keys can also
create a complete message using the alphabetic keypad.

When the recipient has a station without a display (but with a Message LED), the text message becomes
a "delayed callback request".

Starting with version R2.0 of the software, the number of the text message sender may be saved (tem-
porary memory or individual directory) (see also “Making/Answering a call”).

Delayed call-back request


A user whose set does not have a display but which has a "Delayed call-back request key" can leave a
delayed call-back request for another user whose set has a Message LED. The call-back request can
only be left in call setup phase as long as the called party has still not answered.

- in automatic Intercom mode: after ringing, the station "answers" the call of highest priority by swit-
ching to hands free mode.

A user can have his station ring at a time he can program himself. This is the "Appointment Reminder"
function in the case of companies and the "Wake-Up" call in the case of a hotel (in the various num-
bering plans, it is referred to as "Wake-Up").

The "Appointment reminder" can be activated either:

- every day at the programmed time: this is a "permanent" appointment


- or only once in the 24 hours following programming: this is a "temporary" appointment.

CONFIGURATION

CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES APPOINTMENT REMINDER/WAKE-UP


CALL

ACTIVATION/USE

At the appointment or wake-up time, the station rings and the display shows the appointment.

Ringing stops when the user acknowledges the appointment reminder or wake-up call, for example by
going off hook. If there is no acknowledgement, the station rings for 15 seconds (default setting) and
then again one minute later (also by default) and then a third time (by default) after a further minute.

Whether acknowledged or not, a temporary appointment reminder or wake-up call is cancelled and
a permanent appointment reminder is retained for the following day at the same time.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- When the station is busy at the time the appointment reminder or wake-up call is made, the station
does not ring but the user hears a specific tone.
- To avoid traffic overload, stations that have placed wake-up call requests are called in groups of
5, with a default time lapse of 2 seconds between 2 groups
- Number of analog stations called simultaneously: maximum of 4 per SLI board
- You can consult the appointment reminder/wake-up call status for each station in: Subscribers/

DESCRIPTION

A user can help one or more other users to manage their communications, by means of:

- supervision of one or more resource keys on these users' stations, with or without supervised call
ringing: the incoming calls on the supervised resource key are signaled in the same way as on the
associated supervision key
- the selective monitoring: the user also receives the calls intended for the selected directory num-
bers
- subscriber monitoring: the user also receives all the calls for the station monitored
- general monitoring: the user also receives external calls intended for the operator stations

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- A "Selective Monitoring" programmed key can monitor up to 8 directory numbers (a user can have
several directory numbers for a single station: for example, an internal number defined in the main
numbering plan, and an external number defined in the DDI numbering plan. Thus, in order to
monitor both internal and external calls, both directory numbers must be programmed on one or
two selective monitoring keys).
- A station can have several selective monitoring keys.
- Selective or subscriber monitoring of a group of stations is impossible. However, when subscriber
monitoring is active for a station belonging to a parallel or sequential group, the group calls for
this station are monitored.
- Selective monitoring does not work for diverted or monitored calls.
- Subscriber monitoring does not work for calls coming from automatic call back on busy station or
trunk group, or from those coming from master recall if transfer fails.
- When all the station resources are busy, new monitored calls are lost.
- A programmed "subscriber monitoring" key can be used to monitor up to 8 directory numbers (if a
station has several call numbers, simply program one of them on a "subscriber monitoring" key for
all the numbers on this station to be monitored).
- So that a Z station can use general monitoring, the installer must configure a "virtual" General Mo-
nitoring key on it.

TEAMWORK
50

DESCRIPTION

Teamwork simplifies the call management of all the members in a "work group" by equipping each
station with:

- as many RSL keys as there are members in the group less one. Each RSL is programmed with the
number of one of the other members of the group. These keys enable:
- monitoring of the other stations, i.e. knowing whether they are free or occupied
- direct calls to other members of the group
- one or more selective call monitoring keys (one key makes it possible to monitor up to 8 directory
numbers) (see "Call Monitoring")
- a group call pick-up key (see "Call pick-up")

CONFIGURATION

T To create a work group – MMC-Station only:


TerPro -> TeamWk -> Add

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- Group call pick-up is used when selective call monitoring is deactivated for the station which is rin-
ging.
- A work group is "virtual", i.e. there is no directory number. To remedy this, it is preferable to create
a Hunting Group with parallel management (see "Hunting Groups").
- By adding monitoring resource keys to the other stations in the work group, each member of the
group can monitor the other member's calls.

CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES ACCOUNT CODE/SUBSTITUTION

File
ACCOUNT CODE/SUBSTITUTION
51

DESCRIPTION

Account code
An account code makes it possible to charge the cost of an external communication to a client account.

During a communication, a dedicated station can modify the account code or add one ; a Z station
cannot.

All the account codes are configured in the account code table. For each account code, the installer
can state:

- whether or not the client account is identified by a name which can be printed on the metering sta-
tement instead of the name of the call initiator
- whether or not the initiator of the call is to be identified by his directory number
- whether or not the initiator of the call must enter a password, either:
- his personal code, if the user's identity is required ("User-ID" field in MMC-PM5 = User)
- the personal code of the station on which the call is made, if the user's identity is not required
("User-ID" field by MMC-PM5 = No)
- whether the barring and traffic sharing link categories (see "Link Categories" and "Barring") used
for the call are:
- those of the 'set' on which the call is made
- those of the 'Guest' (MMC-PM5 label), i.e. of the station identified for this call
- the barring link category of the client account (between 1 and 16) and traffic sharing link cate-
gory of the station on which the call is made
- no barring: no barring link category but the system uses the traffic sharing link category of the
station on which the call is made
- the number of digits of the external number, masked on the metering statement:
- all: all the digits are masked (priority field in relation to the "Mask last 4 digits" field in the "Me-
tering Printout" menu)
- 0, 1, ...,9: from 0 to 9 digits masked (priority field relative to the "Mask last 4 digits" field in the
"Metering Printout " menu)
- default: value of the "Mask last 4 digits" field in the "Metering Printout" menu (either 0 or 4 digits
masked).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


ACCOUNT CODE/SUBSTITUTION CALL SERVER : TELEPHONE FEATURES

Furthermore, an account code can be:

- defined: in this case, it is composed exclusively of digits (e.g. "987654")


- partially defined: in this case, it is composed of digits and asterisks (e.g.: "1345*****"), the asterisks
represent the variable part ; the number of digits in the account code entered must be equal to the
number of digits of the defined and asterisk part
- variable: in this case, it is composed exclusively of asterisks ; the number of digits in the account
code entered must be equal to the number of asterisks.

When an account code is entered, the system checks first of all, whether it exists as a "defined" code,
if not, a "partially defined" code, and finally as a "variable" code.

The installer can configure a code for activating the "Account Code" service in the main numbering
plan. The "Base" field can be either:

- empty: in this case, the user enters the code associated with the client account himself
- 4 digits long, 0000 to 9999: in this case, the base refers to an account code configured in the ac-
count code table. The four digits of the base can correspond either to the 4 digits of a defined ac-
count code or to a variable code of 4 asterisks.

Substitution
This makes it possible to authorize a user to make an external call from any station in the installation,
even barred or locked, as if he were making the call from his own station.

Substitution is a particular account code case for which:

- the user's identity is required


- barring and traffic sharing link categories are those of the "guest"
- the password may be required.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- The system rejects all calls with an account code using the default personal code.
- An account code can have up to 16 digits or asterisks.
- Partially defined account codes in formats "12**34", "1***6**" or "**88" are forbidden.
- FORCED ACCOUNT CODE: the installer can authorize the user to only make external calls using
an account code, by:
- assigning barring link categories specific to the account code on one hand and to the user on
the other
- configuring account code parameters in the following manner: the user's identity is required,
barring and traffic sharing link categories are those of the "station" and a password is also re-
quired
- The "New Account Code" and "AccNew" programmed key can be replaced by "Macro2" keys con-
taining the external code .
- The account code is not memorized with the number in the Last Number Redial and Temporary
memories.
- An account code can be modified several times during communication and until the user enters a
"defined" or "partially defined" code.
- Masking of several or of all the digits in the external number dialed makes it possible to keep a call
confidential.
- The "names" of the account codes do not figure in the internal directory.
- An account code remains active after activation of a paging, after a recall in the case of a transfer
failure, after a call parking, a call pick-up, a forwarding or a transfer.
- The "Account Code" field can only be printed on statements with 132 columns.
- An S0 station cannot use these services.
- What not to do – example of an ineffective account code configuration: the user's identity is requi-
red, the barring and traffic sharing link categories are those of the "guest" and the personal code
may or may not be required.

DESCRIPTION

An authorized user can lease one of the trunk lines in the main trunk group to another barred user so
that he may make a single external call. This user keeps his call confidential since he dials the number
himself.

The authorized user must be in an internal communication with the user before leasing him the line.

The authorized user can also:

- select the barring level assigned to the call made after allocation of the line: no barring or level 1
to 6
- lease a line with metering reminder (see "Meter Total Recall")
- assign an account code to the communication that the other user is about to make (see "Account
Code")

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- The recall is presented for 25 seconds ; if the recall is not acknowledged, the system temporarily
cancels the recall: it is presented again after any operation carried out on the station.
- If the destination station for the recall is busy, the metering information is temporarily displayed
and a sound signal is transmitted. As soon as it is free, the destination station for the recall should
receive the metering information.
- When a station is the destination for several meter total recalls, the one which has been there the
longest is presented first.
- The service can only be used on external lines providing metering information (hence, not on ana-
log ATLs).
- A meter total recall does not follow a call forwarding.
- A "meter total recall" can be combined with a "trunk allocation" (see corresponding file).
- The character "#" precedes the number of the metering ticket printed on a meter total recall.

REMOTE SUBSTITUTION
54

DESCRIPTION

The remote substitution service enables an employee who is outside of the business premises or at
home to call a correspondent on the public network from a DTMF set (via the TL/T0/T2 access) or a
user on a remote PCX on the same private network (via the ATL or the QSIG accesses) as if he were at
work.

The user must pay for the call to the system; the company is charged for the call between the system
and the external correspondent.

FAX CALL ROUTING
55

DESCRIPTION

This feature enables Alcatel OmniPCX Office users to receive voice and fax calls on the same number:
their correspondents use a single number for either function. Once configured:

- all voice calls make the set ring;


- all fax calls are routed to the associated fax number. A text message advises the user that a fax has
arrived.

Modem type calls are also detected ; these calls are answered by the recipient (modem connected to
an analog access) or by an integrated modem if configured in the OS group. The call is refused if no
modem is present.

Public network Private network

External Fax and stations Internal Fax and stations

ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION

This feature requires that a destination fax number be configured for every user wishing to take ad-
vantage of this service; the number is attached to the station's DDI number in the public numbering
plan.

A greeting (general pre-announcement) has to be configured to keep the correspondent waiting during
the fax detection phase.

Handling calls to the OS group

- If the general pre-announcement message is configured, every incoming call is assessed for pos-
sible routing.
- There is no need to associate a fax or modem number; fax calls are routed to the first analog in-
terface in the system and modem calls to the integrated modem (default configuration).

- by MMC-Station: NumPln -> PubNum -> FaxRou

T Assigning welcome messages:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Subscribers Misc. -> Preannouncement

T To define the pre-announcement mode (none, mode 1- before call distribution or mode 2- during
call distribution) in accordance with the time range:
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Subscribers Misc. -> Preannouncement
- by MMC-Station: PreAnn -> Add -> Mode

Notas :

It is always the general pre-announcement that is used for fax call routing, even if there is a personal
pre-announcement message configured.

Whatever the pre-announcement configuration, the message will be broadcast once and once only,
always before call distribution.

The "Busy" flag (accessed via PM5 -> Subscribers Misc. -> Pre-announcement ->Details) does not
apply to fax call routing.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- Fax call routing cannot be used simultaneously with CCBS.


- Fax call routing can be used simultaneously with fax notification (see that section): in this case, the
user receives 2 messages signaling the receipt of a fax.
- There may be a slight delay between the moment the call reaches the system and the moment it is
put through to the station or fax; this is due to the workload on the DSPs in charge of fax detection.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/8


OUTLINE CALL SERVER : INTEGRATED VOICE
MAIL UNIT

OPERATING MODES: CONNECTED/APPLICATION/CSTA

Application mode (or VMU user with the Mail key)


This mode can only be used by Alcatel OmniPCX Office system subscribers. The voice server is not
affected by incoming calls, but is activated like any other system application - in this case, by a Mail
key or by dialing the Mail code defined in the internal numbering plan.

If the required DSP resources (monitoring, recording, and MF detection for analog terminals) are una-
vailable, the server will not be activated.

User interface

In this mode, the method for navigating through the voice server menus depends on the type of termi-
nal:

- 4023, 4034 and Advanced stations : all operations are performed using soft keys and are gui-
ded by hints on the display.
- 4011, 4012, Easy and Premium stations: all operations are performed using the keypad and
are guided by hints on the display as well as by voice prompts and the dynamic menu called up by
the i key.
- 4003, First and analog stations: all operations are performed using the keypad and are guided
by voice prompts.

Port allocation

Analog ports are not used in Application mode.

Connected mode (or user with VMU group access code)


In this mode:

- the VMU is accessed by dialing the VMU group directory number (in France, 500).
- the Automated Attendant is accessed by dialing the OS group (in France, 9)
- Audiotex is accessed via the numbering plans DDI and internal.

If the required DSP resources (monitoring, recording, silence/noise, DTMF) are unavailable, the acti-
vation of the server is postponed and the user is camped on.

User interface

In this mode, navigation is performed with the aid of voice prompts, whatever type of terminal is used.

4/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File

CALL SERVER : INTEGRATED VOICE OUTLINE


MAIL UNIT

Port allocation

The CPU board provides from 2 to 8 ports, meaning that up to 8 users in Connected mode can simul-
taneously access the Voice Mail Unit, the Automated Attendant and Audiotex.

Port addresses: 91-001-1 to 91-008-1; all ports are seen at all times; those that are not "In Service"
are seen as "Out of Service".
Each service is called up using the number of a group containing one or more ports. A same port can
be assigned to one or more groups.

Reaction on VMU busy

If the server is called by a port directory number, the system recognizes two kinds of busy status:

- 1st-degree busy (up to 2 calls on the same port): new calls are camped on until the port is released.
- 2nd-degree busy (more than 2 calls on the same port): new calls are immediately rejected.

If the server is called by a group number, the call distribution mechanisms on group busy are applied;
the caller is camped on the group, depending on the number of terminals in the group.

CSTA mode
This is the mode used when the server is accessed via the CSTA interface; for details of how this mode
is used, see “Visual Mailbox Interface".

CONFIGURATION TOOLS

The voice server is configured using the system configuration tool PM5. The configurator PC must
have a sound card to record the welcome messages and the Automated Attendant menus (for more
information, see "Voice prompts management" in the section "PM5: System configuration").

If the PC does not have a sound card, the MMC-station can be used to record enterprise welcome mes-
sages and good-bye messages, Automated Attendant menus and sub-menus, Audiotex messages, dis-
tribution list names and the welcome message for the general mailbox.

AUTOMATED ATTENDANT

Description
The Automated Attendant is only accessible in voice server Connected mode:

- by dialing the enterprise's public number (outgoing call);

- or by dialing the VMU group number (internal call) or the directory number for the VMU port. The
user then presses the * key to access the Automated Attendant Main menu;

- or exclusively by dialling the VMU group number if the Mailbox Consultation flag (PM5 -> Voice
Processing -> General Parameters -> Mailbox Consultation) is inactive;

- By dynamic routing:

- level 1: an internal or external call is routed through to the user's mailbox if it exists. If not, the
"no mailbox" default function is activated and the call goes through to the Automated Attendant.
- level 2: an external call is routed through to the OS group; if there is no answer, the default OS
group is used and the call goes through to the Automated Attendant (provided the VMU ports
are included in the default OS group).
- level 1 or 2: if the "Auto. Attendant (lev.1)" or "Auto. Attendant (lev. 2)" flags are activated at the
station's dynamic routing level.

The Automated Attendant greets the caller with the enterprise welcome message and transfers the call
to the appropriate destination. To establish communication, all the possibilities open to the caller are
set out in a Main voice menu and/or submenus.

The Automated Attendant can be customized to suit the individual requirements of the enterprise. For
this reason, the range of options available during working hours is different from that offered out of
hours. There are consequently two Automated Attendant menus, completely independent from each
other. The switch between the "Opening Hours" menu and the "Closing Hours" menu can be made
either manually by the Administrator (by forcing restricted or normal mode) or automatically, accor-
ding to a pre-programmed schedule defined in the system opening hours settings (opening hours =
normal mode, closing hours = restricted mode).

The Automated Attendant is multilingual: the voice prompt language can be selected by the caller.

Nota : Only the menus of the main language can be customized.

Call processing example

For a more detailed look, let's take the example of a caller picked up by the Automated Attendant.
First of all, he hears the enterprise welcome message. Then he is instructed to press the star key (op-
tional).

The "Press Star" question is a specific function for establishing whether the correspondent has a set with
a voice frequency keyboard.
He can then select the language for the voice prompts (optional).
The caller now comes to the Automated Attendant Main menu, in which specific menus are assigned
to the keyboard keys. He can choose from the proposed Main menu functions:

CALL SERVER : INTEGRATED VOICE SYSTEM OPERATION


MAIL UNIT

- Free dialing: the caller is prompted to dial an internal destination number.

- Transfer to subscriber: the caller is routed to a predefined internal number.

- Transfer to operator station: the caller is routed to the OS.

- External transfer: the caller is routed to an external number. If the transfer recipient is not available,
the transfer fails and the call returns to the Automated Attendant main menu.

Remarque : external transfer is applied after configuration of a speed dial number in PM5 (Voice
Processing/Automated Attendant/Automated Attendant Menu/Transfer to Station/
Group).

- Information message: the caller hears an information message that may be chained with other in-
formation messages.

- General mailbox: the caller is routed to the general mailbox.

- Leave a message: the caller is prompted to enter a mailbox number in order to leave a message.

- Mailbox: the caller is routed to a predefined mailbox.

Notas :

The possibilities available on initialization are specific to each country.

SYSTEM OPERATION CALL SERVER : INTEGRATED VOICE
MAIL UNIT

On initialization, the default function is "Transfer to Attendant".

Direct call
The Automated Attendant can be used at a simple level, replacing the Main menu with a single pos-
sibility. The Direct Call function routes the caller directly to a predefined function after the welcome
message and the optional "Press Star" and "Select Language" questions.

Consulting a mailbox
Once he has got through to the Automated Attendant, the caller can access his mailbox directly (if he
has one) by pressing the # key and entering his subscriber number and password. For a more detailed
description, see the "Consulting a mailbox" section under "Services available to users".

Notas :

AUDIOTEX

Description
An Audiotex consists of a sequence of information messages.

2 mutually independent Audiotex services are provided: one for opening hours, the other for the com-
pany's closing hours.

One can switch between them either manually or automatically, using the same time ranges as defined
in the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system.

Activation
Audiotex can be accessed in either of 2 ways (if a menu is available for access to an information mes-
sage):

- by an external call - dialing the Audiotex DDI number, or


- by an internal call - dialing the internal number for the Automated Attendant.

System call

Enterprise welcome message + optional question


Press * key + select language (option)

Audiotex

Information message 1
+
Information message 2
+ Transfer to Operator Station
Information message 3 (Optional)

When the caller dials the DDI number for the Audiotex service, he automatically hears the enterprise
welcome message. The next two stages are optional:

- He is asked to press the * key to check that he has a voice frequency terminal (this option can be
configured by PM5);
- Then he can select his preferred language for navigating in Audiotex (configurable using PM5).

Finally he will be put through to the first information message; this message may be chained with
others or followed by forwarding to the OS, for example.

Default function
The default function is obtained when the application cannot interpret the numbers dialed by the caller
(for example, at the end of an information message, the caller is prompted to dial the number of the
person he wants to contact). This default function is identical to the one used for the Automated Atten-
dant and must be configured from within the Automated Attendant (see "Default function" in the "Auto-
mated Attendant" chapter).

Role of the * and # keys


- * key:
- on connection to Audiotex: the company's welcome message and "Press Star" question are skip-
ped and the caller is prompted to select his preferred language (if configured) or is played the
first information message.
- while listening to a message: the voice server is released after playing a good-bye message.
- # key: skips the current information message and moves on to the next

Message configuration
T To set the first information message:
- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Voice Processing -> Information Messages -> Audio Text

T To set the information messages:

Number of configurable messages: 50

The various functions at the end of the welcome message are only available with PM5:
- Not used: if the caller is in the Automated Attendant, then he is returned to the previous level;
if the caller is in Audiotex, the good-bye message is played and the voice server is released.
- Free dialing: the caller is prompted to dial an internal destination number.
- Transfer to subscriber: the caller is routed to a predefined internal number.
- Transfer to operator station: the caller is routed to the OS.
- Information message: the caller is played an information message.
- General mailbox: the caller is routed to the general mailbox.
- Leave a message: the caller is prompted to enter a mailbox number in order to leave a messa-
ge.
- Mailbox: the caller is routed to a predefined mailbox.

4. From the Function drop-down menu, select AudioText.

5. Complete the fields:

- Start and End: these fields contain the DDI call number of the system Audio Text service con-
sisting of 8 characters maximum from 0 to 9, * and #.

- Base: in general, the base is equal to the internal directory number of the automated attendant.
It is used to ensure correspondence between the DDI number of the Audio Text and the internal
directory number (IDN) of the automatic attendant. This correspondence is based on the for-
mula IDN = DDI number of Audio Text service - Start + Base.

All incoming calls are routed to Audio Text. The caller is played the welcome message, then the
information message. He can then access the services configured.

MANAGING MAILBOXES

Description
On initialisation, every subscriber in the installation is automatically allocated a mailbox(except ana-
log Z stations).

Each mailbox can operate in any of 3 modes. The operating mode of each mailbox is configured by
the installation Administrator (standard mode on initialization):
- Mailbox in standard mode
This mode provides access to a range of functions. The owner can switch between standard mode
and answering-only mode, but not into guest mode.
- Mailbox in guest mode
This mode, designed for Hotel use, offers more limited functions. Only the "Leave Message" and
"Consult Message" functions are available; any caller can leave a message to be consulted by the
guest, but under no circumstances can the guest send any messages. The password is only required
when the guest consults his mailbox remotely. The guest cannot switch his mailbox into standard
or answering-only mode.
- Mailbox in answering-only mode
This mode can be adopted by users who don't want to receive messages; the caller hears only the
welcome message but cannot leave a message, then the server releases the call (if a personal gree-
ting has been recorded).
The owner of a mailbox in answering-only mode can switch it into standard mode and vice versa
(see "Customization"), but not into guest mode.

First consultation
When the mailbox is used for the first time, the messaging service must be activated from the terminal
in Application mode. The user is then asked to enter a password and register his name; the mailbox
is then initialized.

If the user accidentally activates the voice mail unit in Connected mode, he will find that he is refused
access to his mailbox.
Subsequent consultations can be made in Application mode or Connected mode (see "Operating mo-
des: Connected/Application/CSTA")

Nota : The password is only required if the parameter Password required for mailbox consul-
tation (PM5 -> Voice Processing -> General Parameters) is validated; if not, the password
is not necessary.

Deleting a mailbox
The Administrator can delete mailboxes. If the mailbox contains messages (read or unread), these are
kept for X minutes and can be consulted by the user in Application mode; if the mailbox is allocated
to someone else within the period of X minutes, the messages are lost.

{0>" Suppression des boîtes vocales "<}67{> Deleting mailboxes "<0}


From version R2.0, you may use PM5 to delete the mailboxes of all the selected users: Subscribers/

- Free dialing: the caller is prompted to dial an internal destination number.
- Transfer to subscriber: the caller is routed to a predefined internal number.
- Transfer to operator station: the caller is routed to the OS.

Voicemail for attendant groups


On initialisation and unlike the handsets, there is no automatic allocation of voicemail to groups.
From version R2.0, it is possible to allocate, by PM5, a voicemail to each group via the configuration
of a virtual terminal; virtual terminals correspond to physical addresses 96-001-01, 96-002-01, etc.).

The virtual terminal is configured in diversion on the group concerned; in fact the group is called by
the directory number of the terminal.

Remote customisation enables a name to be allocated to a voicemail, a welcome message to be re-


corded or the password to be changed (the default password is used to access the mail in on-line mode
while the mailbox is not initialised).
Should the current password be lost, it is possible, for a virtual terminal to retrieve the default password
by PM5 ->List of Subscribers/Basestations ->Details -> Personal code -> Reset.

The allocation of a Voicemail unit key to each dedicated handset of the group enables these handsets
to:

- be alerted to a new message in the group voicemail.


- to check the group voicemail; while voicemail is not initialised, access by this key prompts the start
up of the initialisation sequence (change of password and saving of the name).

Dynamic routing must be configured to direct unanswered calls to the VMU (500) group.

Configuration

T To create virtual terminals (one per group):


- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Subscribers/Base stations List -> Subscribers/Base stations
List -> Add -> check "Virtual Terminals" and enter the number

T To allocate a voicemail to each virtual terminal:


- By DHM-PM5 (Expert View): Subscribers/Base stations Lists -> List of Subscribers/Base sta-
tions -> Details -> Voicemail -> "Yes" to the question "Subscriber XXX does not have
voicemail, do you wish to create one?

T To allocate to each attendant group a Voicemail unit key:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Subscribers/Base stations List -> Subscribers/Base stations
List -> Details -> Function Key = Voicemail Unit.

Nota : After a cold reset, ensure voicemail is reallocated to the virtual terminals in an or-
derly fashion, that is, to the related groups following the order of creation prior to
the reset.

MANAGING THE GENERAL MAILBOX

Description
On initialization, a general (or common) mailbox is created. This mailbox, accessible in consultation-
only mode from the operator station, enables the messages left there to be forwarded to other users
in the installation.

The caller accesses the general mailbox via the Automated Attendant or Audiotex, providing the Ge-
neral mailbox function has been configured by the Administrator.

Activation
The general mailbox is accessed from an operator station or from another station belonging to the
installation (equipped with soft keys) by:

- pressing the fixed Mail key


- pressing the GalMbx soft key
- enter the Operator/Attendant password ('help1954' by default).

Nota : For stations with soft keys and with a number pad, proceed as follows:

- press the fixed Mail key.


- press the Voice key.
- press the Return or code * key.
- enter the general mailbox number (= operator/attendant call number as defined in the internal
numbering plan, 9 for example).
- enter the Operator/Attendant password ('help1954' by default).

Nota : To access the general mailbox in Connected mode from inside or outside the company, it
is necessary to change the operator's password so that it contains numbers only (correspon-
ding to Q23 frequencies) and no letters.

Additional Information
- Not being assigned to any individual subscriber, the general mailbox cannot be customized; only
the welcome message can be configured.
- For the operator, there is no difference in the way general mailbox and private mailbox messages
are notified.
- As with other mailboxes, the general mailbox can only be consulted by one station at a time.
- When the operator forwards messages left in the general mailbox, the transfer data (identification,
date and time) are those of the initial message.
- The operator station can use the general mailbox in the dynamic routing, attendant diversion and/
or restricted mode services; then, the Automated Attendant will be used with a direct call to the ge-
neral mailbox access. The operator can redirect the external incoming calls to the general mailbox.
Different solutions are available (in all cases, the Automated Attendant will be dedicated to the di-
rect function "General Mailbox"; to do this, it is mandatory to record (by PM5 -> Automated Atten-
dant) a welcome message and to activate the Direct Access = General mailbox function):
- dynamic routing after X seconds to the general mailbox in the event of no answer from
the operator: to do this, program for the OS group nº 1 (or the current group within the time

range) a level 1 dynamic routing to group 500 (default group containing the VMU accesses)
with a timeout of X seconds. It is also possible to program a level 2 dynamic routing at general
level if the VMU accesses are configured in OS group nº 8.
- Immediate forwarding to general mailbox:
- 1st solution: use OS Forwarding towards the group containing the VMU accesses (group
500 by default).
- 2nd solution: use restricted mode provided the VMU accesses are in OS group nº 8.

HOTEL FEATURES

This chapter deals exclusively with the features provided in Hotel mode (as opposed to Business mode,
which concerns all the other chapters).

Check-in
When guests check in, they are automatically allocated a mailbox; its mode of operation (guest mode),
the password, and the language used for the voice prompts are all assigned automatically on check-in.

On consulting the mailbox for the first time, the guest must enter a password and register his or her
name. Until the name has been registered, the guest cannot consult his or her mailbox.

Consulting the mailbox


First consultation

Until the user name has been registered, the guest cannot access his or her mailbox. The first consul-
tation must be in Application mode (by dialing the Mail code or pressing the Mail key); the guest is put
directly through to his mailbox and must only register his name.

Subsequent consultations

The mailbox can subsequently be consulted in Application mode or in Connected mode (by dialing the
VMU or port number).

In Connected mode, the guest has to enter his mailbox number followed by his password. The pas-
sword may be read by the operator station via the "Hotel" key.
In Application mode, the guest is directly connected to his messages.

The messages received are automatically played back in sequence. The guest can replay messages
and use the Return, Pause, Next or Delete functions. Messages that have been listened to but not de-
leted are kept.

Check-out
When the guest checks out, the mailbox is automatically unallocated if it contains no messages. If any
messages remain, they are kept for 50 minutes, after which time the mailbox is definitively deleted.
They can be consulted in all modes.

CONSULTING A MAILBOX (STANDARD MODE)

The diagram on the next page summarizes the mailbox consultation stages and options.

Description
This service enables users to call their mailbox and listen to any messages received (whether new or
already heard), listen to recorded conversations, send messages or remotely configure some mailbox
parameters (see appropriate paragraph).

This service is protected by a password (the same as for the subscriber). In Application mode however
consultation is possible without a password, depending on the state of the mailbox consultation flag
(PM5 -> Voice Processing -> General Parameters -> Mailbox Consultation). The default value
is no password.

Mise en service
Users access their mailboxes:

- in Application mode:
- sets with a fixed Mail key: using this key (or the appropriate code)
- stations with displays: Voice key + password
- stations without displays: password.
- stations without a fixed Mail key: Mail service code or programmed key + password

Additional Information
- The new message notification mode (voice prompt on going off-hook, LED or icon) depends on the
type of terminal; for analog sets with a LED, a virtual key has to be created. Conversation recor-
dings are not notified.

- Number of messages/conversations:
- stations with display: the number of messages (old and new) and the number of conversations
recorded are displayed at the start of the consultation.
- stations without displays:
- case 1: mailbox containing new messages only: a voice prompt indicates the number of new
messages.
- case 2: mailbox containing old messages only: a voice prompt indicates the number of messa-
ges already heard.
- case 3: mailbox containing new and old messages: only the number of new messages is an-
nounced.
- case 4: the number of conversations is never announced.

- When accessing the mailbox (Connected or Application mode) the "Mailbox -> Please enter the
mailbox number" menu can be opened by pressing the * key before entering the password (this
enables users to access their chosen mailbox).

- Email notification of new voice message:

In R2.0 (e-Business solutions only), an Email (HTML format, or text format if display with HTML is
not possible) is sent when a new message is left in the mailbox. The voice mail is sent as an atta-

chment in the form of a .WAV file (16 bits, 8 kHz). A voice mail that has been listened to via e-mail
is still regarded as a new message when consulting the mailbox.

Via the WBM, access the User Settings window. In the Voice messages field of the Absence tab,
check the Display voice message as an attachment (WAV) box to be notified when a voice mes-
sage is deposited in the box and to listen to it. For more information, see the User and User groups

PLAYING BACK MESSAGES

Description
If at least one message has been left, the user can play back the messages in his mailbox, using a
range of possible functions (delete, next, replay, send a copy, call back, etc).

Messages are played back in two series: the new messages first, then the old ones. Each series is in
chronological order.

Caller identification
While the messages are played back, the terminal display indicates:

- the name of the caller - if known, and if the user has the corresponding feature rights
- otherwise, the caller's number
- **** if the caller has activated the CLIR or “Secrecy" service
- “Unknown" if the caller number is not recognized by the system.

The identity of the caller is never announced.

Date and time


The date and time of arrival are displayed on the terminal and announced before the message is
played back.

Call-back
When the caller's identity is known to the system (Calling Line Identification Presentation), this service
enables the user to immediately call back correspondents (whether internal or external) who leave a
message. The call-back number can contain a maximum of 20 digits. Call-back can be requested whi-
le still listening to the message, or afterwards.

There are several possibilities:


- Internal call: internal callers can be called back without restriction.
- If the VMU was activated in Connected mode, the transfer is of the semi-supervised type:
- if the user does not answer: the call is transferred and dynamic routing to the called-back sta-
tion is activated.
- if the user is busy (degree 1 or 2): the call is not transferred and the user is returned to the mes-
sage playback menu.
- If the VMU was activated in Application mode, the transfer is of the blind type: the application
transfers the call regardless of caller status and immediately goes on-hook; if the call-back fails,
the user has to hang up and call back the VMU (or press Redial).
- External call: the call-back of external callers is governed by barring mechanisms. The VMU trans-
fers the call when the connection is established (correspondent off-hook) or simulated.

SENDING MESSAGES

Description
From the consultation menu, the user can send a voice message directly to the recipient's mailbox by
performing the following operations:

- pressing the Send soft key or dialing code 3


- defining the destination(s) for the message
- recording the message; validating the message sends it to its destination.

Defining the destination


The destination can be:

- the user's name (display terminals only)


- a distribution list name (display terminals only)
- the user's directory number (up to 8 digits)
- a distribution list number (000 to 050).

Notas :

If the terminal has soft keys, the user can browse the destination list. He can then:
- go to the next member
- go back to the previous member
- delete a member
- delete all the members in the list
- insert a distribution list.

Recording the message


While recording the message, the user can pause (key 8) and then continue the recording (key 8
again). He can also stop the recording (# key) or start over from the beginning (* key). These options
are available even though they are not announced (they are displayed, however).

SENDING COPIES OF MESSAGES

Description
This function is identical to sending a message except that the user can also add an introduction (a
comment telling the recipient that the message is a copy).

mains active for other incoming calls, which can still be monitored.

Additional Information
- The set's speaker is automatically activated when the message is left.
- This function is only available for idle sets with programmable keys and a loudspeaker.
- The messages that can be filtered correspond to calls to users with fixed or dynamic routing on their
lines; messages sent from a mailbox cannot be filtered.
- The general mailbox cannot be filtered; messages sent from the "Mailbox" menu cannot be filtered.
- Filtering can only be activated for a single message at a time.
- If filtering is activated while a message is being left, there is no effect.
- The call can be answered by pressing the “Hands Free" key or going off-hook. The part of the mes-
sage left before answering is wiped. After going back on hook, filtering remains active for any new
incoming call.

Personal assistant

Description
Incoming calls forwarded to the voice server are routed to the user's mailbox or the user's personal
assistant (depending on the configuration).

If the call is forwarded to the personal assistant, the caller is put through to the Main menu, enabling
him for example to leave a message (so that he can be called back) or to be transferred to the reci-
pient's mobile terminal.
For the caller, forwarding to the mailbox or personal assistant is guided by voice prompts only.
If the personal assistant is activated:
- the caller is informed that the person cannot be reached
- he then listens to the various options offered by the personal assistant (transfer to the operator sta-
tion or to a predefined internal/external destination)
- then he hears the voice prompt for his chosen option.

Forwarding to the personal assistant is immediate, and is activated from the set customization menu;
the personal assistant voice prompt is pre-recorded and cannot be customized.

"VISUAL MAILBOX" INTERFACE

OVERVIEW

Description
The "Visual Mailbox" interface gives Alcatel OmniPCX Office users access to mailboxes via the PC-
based application PIMphony. It provides:

- easier and more intuitive navigation thanks to the services offered by the integrated voice server;
- direct access to voice server functionality without having to manipulate the telephone.

The main services available are:

- Backup messages/conversations on the PC


- Consult new mail
- Consult recorded conversations
- Insert into Outlook
- Send mail
- Record new messages.
Copy messages with or without adding a comment.

The "Visual Mailbox" interface can be used either:

- on the telephone terminal, or


- on the PC, if it has a sound card.

Environment

LAN

User workstation

The user workstation consists of:

- a Z, DECT or Reflexes terminal (connected to the system by a UA, DECT, analog or IP link) and a
PC connected to the LAN (the system must also be connected to the LAN);
- or simply a multimedia PC (PIMphony IP Edition) connected to the LAN.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


"VISUAL MAILBOX" INTERFACE CALL SERVER : INTEGRATED VOICE
MAIL UNIT

SERVICES PROVIDED

The application enables you to initialize and configure the password required for access to the messa-
ges window.

Mailbox supervision
The "Mailbox" icon in the toolbar indicates whether all the messages have been heard or whether there
is at least one new message.

Clicking the icon opens the "Visual Mailbox" window, containing information on all the messages and
conversations stored in the mailbox:
- date and time of message
- type of message: voice mail or recorded conversation
- caller identity: name registered in PIMphony, PCX name or number
- the length of the message
- message status: new or old.

The information list is updated dynamically each time a message arrives in, or is deleted from, the
mailbox, or changes status from "new" to "read". This is represented by 2 distinct icons: the application
also synchronizes the status of the LED on the set (signaling the presence or absence of new messages).

Handling messages
Messages/conversations are viewed in list form in the "Visual Mailbox" window.

A set of static buttons are available for:

- deleting items
- playing them back
- copying them, with or without a comment
- recording a new message
- creating or displaying the caller's Outlook file
- calling back the person who left the message (if their identity is linked to the voice message).

Dynamic buttons appear during playback.

Remote notification of new messages (copy to Outlook mail client)


The "Follow Me" function enables authorized users to receive e-mail on the local PC to advise them that
a new message has arrived in their mailbox.

The voice message is inserted as an attachment to a new message in the main Outlook message list.

This option is configurable.


This function requires Outlook to be installed locally.

MANAGING THE TERMINAL

Entering VMB mode


The terminal acts as the audio input/output for recording and playback services.

When a new voice mail is detected, the server informs the terminal (the LED flashes) and the PC (the
"Mailbox" icon changes state). Pressing the "Listen" key in the "Visual Mailbox" window has the following
effect:

- the terminal goes directly to Hands Free mode; alternatively, it rings and the user has to pick up
the receiver. The user then hears the new message.
- the display is updated ("Visual Mailbox").
- all the terminal keys except End, Loud+, Loud-, off-hook and on-hook are disabled.
- the terminal is now considered busy (incoming calls entrants are camped on); with PIMphony, calls
can still be taken.

Quitting VMB mode


The terminal quits this mode after:

- going on-hook or pressing END


- closing the VMB window
- after an inactivity timeout of 2 min 30 sec.

From version R1.1 onwards, an External Voice Mail Unit ("external VMU"), using the VPS protocol, can
be utilized in place of the integrated voice server.

The external VMU is connected to the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system by analog links (SLI boards).

The following integrated voice server features are no longer available when an external VMU is used:

- Personal Assistant
- conversation recording
- voice mail filtering
- Audiotex
- integrated Automated Attendant
- general mailbox
- visual mailbox (PIMphony)

ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION

Activating the external Voice Mail Unit


Activating the external VMU has the following effects:

- The keys and other data defined for the integrated voice server are not used by the external VMU;
- on each terminal, the number of messages received is set at 0 and the Message LED is off.

Reactivating the integrated voice server


When reactivated using PM5, and provided the settings are coherent, the voice server takes up from
where it left off (with all statuses and voice mail recorded) before the switch to the external VMU.

CONFIGURATION

The integrated voice server is used by default.

With PM5 (but not with MMC-station), the integrated voice server can be deactivated in order to ope-
rate with the external VMU. This deactivation has to be confirmed; using the external VMU calls for the
following additional adjustments:

- defining the links between the external VMU and the SLI equipment
- allocating the external VMU ports to the OS group and VMU group
- checking that the VPS codes are compatible with the numbering plan
- reprogramming the VMU access keys
- adapting the dynamic routing settings to the VMU for each user with a mailbox.

T To deactivate the integrated voice server:

- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Voice Processing -> Activate Voice Processing -> ❏ Deactivate

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

For systems operating with an external VMU, the following particularities needed to be taken into con-
sideration:

- Message notification: as with the integrated voice server, the presence of new messages is signaled
by icon/LED or by voice prompt on going off-hook, depending on the type of terminal.

- Number of messages: with the external VMU, users are not shown the number of messages:

- sets with displays: the sign "+1" means at least one message is available;

- sets without displays: on picking up the handset, the user hears a specific tone signaling the
presence of new messages.

- Consulting the mailbox: mailbox consultation is still accessed by pressing the Mail key or by dialing
the Mail function code; on connection to the external Voice Mail Unit, the user is guided by the voice
prompts (soft key navigation is no longer available).

- Customization: all the voice server options contained in the customization tree structure are disa-
bled.

- General Mailbox soft key: the display on terminals in the OS group no longer offers a soft key for
calling the general mailbox.

ETSI STANDARD

The DECT protocol is based on pico-cellular technology (cells of 30 to 150 m depending on the envi-
ronment) allowing high traffic throughput: up to 10000 E/km2.

The frequency band used is between 1880 MHz and 1900 MHz (UHF) i.e. a passband of 20 MHz.
These 20 MHz are split into 10 radio channels.

The passband of a radio channel is 1.728 MHz and radio channels are spaced 2 MHz apart to avoid
interference between adjacent channels.
The DECT system is based on the use of FDMA (frequency multiplexing) and TDMA (time multiplexing)
techniques. It thus has a maximum capacity of 120 simultaneous communication channels (10 radio
frequencies x 12 time slots).

GAP (Generic Access Profile): part of the DECT protocol required for interworking by cordless handsets
from different manufacturers.

PRINCIPLES

The DECT features integrated into the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system allow for the creation of a wire-
less PCX.

The DECT features are offered by 4070 IO/EO base stations connected to UA Reflexes interfaces (UAI
boards).

A radio base station can support up to 6 communication channels simultaneously, on 2 UA links.

The base stations have a range of:

- 150 meters over open ground


- 30 to 50 meters horizontally and 7.5 meters vertically in an enclosed space

DECT UA/GAP SYSTEM

A DECT system managing the UA/GAP (Generic Access Profile) protocols allows simultaneous use of
the following cordless handsets:

- DECT UA + GAP cordless handsets (Mobile Reflexes, 4073 GS, 4074 Gx handsets; Reflexes DECT
sets)
- third party DECT GAP cordless handsets (the available features may differ).

- roaming
- intracell handover (on the same base station)
- intercell handover (between base stations).

System access and dynamic channel selection

Before making or receiving calls, the handset must obtain information about the environment in which
it is being used to ensure that it does in fact have access to the system.

To enable the handset to synchronize itself with the system, each base station is always active on at
least one radio channel (the dummy bearer), broadcasting information concerning the system and its
identity.

Any handset will thus be able to recognize the system coverage area in which it is working. When on
standby, each handset is tuned to the nearest base station, receptive to search messages indicating an
incoming call.

Channels are allocated dynamically when requested by the handset. Once synchronized with the sys-
tem, the handset decides on the most appropriate channel for a communication. It chooses the least
disrupted of the free channels.

Inter- and intra-cell handover procedures

The coverage radius of a DECT radio base station forms a "cell".

Intercell handovers to another cell are commanded by the handset when the signal from the active
base is weak and there is a stronger base in the vicinity. During the communication, the mobile re-
quests an appropriate available channel from the second base. Once the second link has been esta-
blished, it releases the first one, maintaining the communication on the second base.

If transmission errors arise, an intracell handover is performed on the same base station towards a
higher quality channel.

GAP MODE: GENERAL

By default, Alcatel DECT GAP handsets operate in proprietary mode (i.e. like Reflexes sets); third party
DECT GAP handsets usually operate in basic mode (though some may operate in advanced mode):

- basic mode: this mode offers a reduced level of operation (no enquiry call, no call waiting, no dis-
play management, etc.)
- advanced mode: this mode offers access to a level of operation essentially equivalent to that of an
analog Z terminal (all functions defined by feature access codes).

With PM5, the mode of each set can be modified individually at the registration stage.

CONNECTION

The Alcatel 4070 IO base station is designed for internal installation in the building, while the Alcatel
4070 EO base station is designed for external installation.

A base station may be connected to 1 or 2 UA links (UAI boards) and allows 3 or 6 simultaneous con-
nections with DECT/GAP terminals.

The need for three or six communication channels depends on the number of cordless stations and on
the DECT traffic to be managed.
In the event of a two-cable connection:
- use two interfaces neighbouring a UAI board
- use the odd interface for the master link and the other for the slave link.

Both cables should have the same length. The first interface of the system's UAI16 board should not
be used since the operator station uses those points.

the change of antenna occurred when the error rate was in excess of a specific limit. On
DECT 4070 NG bases, in addition to the change of antenna described above, there is a
fast antenna change call "Fast antenna diversity"; this change occurs automatically as soon
as the mobile sets receive levels becomes too weak.

- Define the length of the line: because the connection distances between the modules and the base
stations (1200m max.) differ, you must compensate by making the propagation length more or
less identical. The following choices are available:

- short line: 0 to 400 m (default value)


- medium line: 400 to 800 m
- long line: 800 to 1,200 m
By MMC PM5, select: Subscribers/Base stations List -> Subscribers/Base stations List -> IBS
Master -> Details -> Line Length.

This programming operation is necessary to install the base station. If modified during use, the
base station will be reset (regardless of any communication in progress).
In case of a mixed environment (4070 and 4070 NG bases), the installer may change the antenna
diversity on several base stations at the same time.

- Define the number of antennae used: it may be necessary to cancel antenna diversity for specific
needs.

By MMC PM5, select: Subscribers/Base stations List -> Subscribers/Base stations List -> IBS
Master -> Details -> Antenna Diversity -> No Diversity = 1 antenna (4070 and 4070 NG
bases); Slow Diversity = 2 antennas (4070 and 4070 NG bases); Fast Diversity = 2 antennas (4070
NG bases only).

In the event of modification during use, the base station will be reset (regardless of any communi-
cation in progress).

- Define the DECT frequencies used: A 4070 IO/EO base station can operate with 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 or
10 frequencies. When booted up, all 10 frequencies are available (configuration varies according
to the system's software version).

CONFIGURING THE SYSTEM
3

Configuring the system's DECT mobile functionality consists in programming the ARI number and the
GAP authentication code (if necessary). Both of these parameters must be completed before registering
a set on the system.

Before starting the DECT configuration, the numbering plan must be defined and the hardware con-
figuration (installing interface boards, recognizing sets, etc) completed.

ARI NUMBER

The ARI (Access Right Identifier) number identifies the system uniquely to mobiles. It contains 11 octal
digits (base 8). This number, assigned to an ETSI base by the installer, must be entered on installing
the system.

It is structured as follows:

- the ARC (Access Right Code) specifies the usage environment (private, public, etc); in the case of
Alcatel OmniPCX Office, a type-B ARI is allocated by the DECT protocol (ARC = 1, non modifiable)

- the EIC (Equipment Installer Code) is the number assigned by ETSI to each maker or distributor
offering DECT systems

- the FPN/S (Fixed Part Number/Subnumber) is a number entered by the installer: each system ins-
talled by the same installer must have a different number.

This service secures data exchange between the system and the DECT GAP handsets.

An authentication code can be sent by the mobile to the system during the registration procedure. This
code is then compared with the one configured in the system. If it matches, the registration of the set
can continue; if not, it is stopped.

REGISTERING A GAP HANDSET

DECT sets are identified by their IPUI N (International Portable User Identity type N). Each handset has
a different IPUI N number, used when the set is declared to the system.

In the case of a DECT GAP handset, the IPUI N and ARI parameters are exchanged automatically du-
ring the registration procedure. It is through these parameters that the system recognizes the handset,
and vice versa.

In new sets, the battery included is factory pre-charged. When the terminal is brought into service, the
residual charge level is usually enough to power the registration stage.

Fit the battery into the handset and check that the level of charge is adequate (full or half-charge icon);
if not, put it on charge.

Start the registration procedure on the PCX.

When the system is ready, continue with the handset.

Step A

Turn on the handset by a long press on and observe the screen display.

- If the set is new (never been assigned) and has enough battery charge, the display shows "SYSTEM

INSTALLING A REFLEXES DECT SET

The registration of a Reflexes DECT set (with the 4097 CBL option) is performed by radio data exchan-
ge with the system. Before attempting the association, it is therefore important to check that the DECT
bases are operational and that the sets are located in a zone with adequate coverage.

In order to limit traffic during installation of the sets, it is advisable to register the Reflexes DECT sets
in sequence, one after the other.

Notas :

The DECT-GAP authentication procedure (described in file 3) is not available with Reflexes DECT sets.

REGISTRATION PROCEDURE FOR A NEW SET


New sets are delivered from the factory without any registration data; they are brought into service
using a simplified procedure.

After adding a DECT set, go into GAP registration mode (MMC-Station or MMC-PM5) and initialize
the association procedure up to "Subscription running".
Then switch on the set's power supply, connecting the transformer block to the mains and check the
red indicator LED at the back of the set: the LED should emit a short series of "long ON/short OFF"
flashes, then go out as soon as the set is synchronized with a base station.
At this point, the registration request is performed automatically by the set. The terminal identifier ap-

IMPLEMENTING REFLEXES DECT SETS CALL SERVER : MOBILITY

REGISTRATION PROCEDURE FOR A PREVIOUSLY REGISTERED SET


If, during a registration attempt, the red indicator LED flashes "short ON/ long OFF", this means that
the set contains configuration data. To delete the data, proceed as follows:

- disconnect / reconnect the power supply;


- 2-3 seconds after switching on the power supply again, enter the following sequence of digits on
the keyboard: *#*86734#*# (which corresponds to the alphabet code *#*UNREG#*# using the
number keys); the first character must be entered within 10 seconds;
- again disconnect / reconnect the power supply; automatic registration as described in the para-
graph above is initialized.

General conditions of installation


- location: this office set must be located in an environment with limited risk of electro-magnetic dis-
turbance and which allows for good quality radio transmission. For example, avoid placing the set
near items such as dense metal structures, television, fluorescent strips, halogen lamps, PC moni-
tors, etc.
- PCX limits: a Reflexes DECT set is considered both as a Reflexes line set and a DECT terminal. The
installation must include a Reflexes corded set in order to perform the Operator function.
- radio operation: the Reflexes DECT set operates in dynamic DECT link mode (just like a conven-
tional DECT mobile) or static mode (just like a corded set). The communication channel is set up
with the base station each time there is a need to exchange data with the PCX. At the end of an
exchange, when the set is in stand-by mode, the radio link and communication channel resources
are released and made available to the base station.
- coverage study: this is performed in the conventional way, just as for a system equipped with
DECT mobile terminals. Apart from the specific use of the terminal as a static office set, it is recom-
mended that a sufficient radio level be maintained in order to guarantee excellent communication
quality.
- limits for standard traffic needs: the maximum number of Reflexes DECT terminals that can ope-
rate in the same zone is the following:
- for a zone covered by one radio base station (NOTE 1)
- 4070IO/EO base station with 3 channels: 4 sets
- 4070IO/EO base station with 6 channels: 12 sets
- for a zone covered by a group of co-located base stations (NOTE 2)
- cluster of two 4070IO/EO base stations with 6 channels: 30 sets
- cluster of three 4070IO/EO base stations with 6 channels: 50 sets

Notas :

1. irrespective of the model of the DECT set (any type of 4074, or Reflexes DECT)
2. the topology of co-located base stations is a specific solution that makes it possible to increase traffic
capacity in a given zone: this specific zone is thus identically covered by the various base stations that
make up the cluster. To set up a base station cluster it is necessary to make sure that the DECT sets are
compatible with this topology, which requires an overflow function not available on some DECT set
models.

ting mode of Reflexes DECT sets).


- Avoid allocating Reflexes DECT sets to hunting groups; however, if the use of this type of set is ine-
vitable, limit their number to 4 per group.
- Number of Reflexes DECT sets in manager-secretary configurations: 4 manager sets and 4 secre-
tary sets.
- Do not allocate Reflexes DECT sets to broadcast groups.
- Do not use Reflexes DECT sets as call monitoring sets (selective or general) nor to monitor resour-
ces.
- Programming the RSP keys is impossible on Reflexes DECT sets.
- Status signaling (free or busy) for sets monitored on RSL keys is unavailable except for sets allocated
to manager-secretary configurations.
- Background music is not available on Reflexes DECT sets.
- After a time change made by MMC or after reception of the time sent by the public exchange, it is
possible that this modification will not be taken into account immediately by all the Reflexes DECT
sets; in this case, a simple user action (going off-hook, making a call, etc.) is enough to reset the
time synchronization on the display.

MOVING A REFLEXES DECT SET

To move a Reflexes DECT set, it is necessary to disconnect the mains power supply block before ins-
talling it in another place.

Reconnect the set for normal use (the set's number and programming will be kept).
Make sure the terminal is relocated in a zone with an adequate radio reception level, one that can
cope with the traffic requirements.

System: consult the system administrator or user manual to obtain all the necessary details. Attention
should be paid to the start up procedure; also check whether registration requires a particular access
code (authentication code) to be entered on the station.

Set: the 4074 Gx can be programmed to manage up to 5 different DECT systems (labeled SYS1 to
SYS5). As a general rule, the first entry (SYS1) is reserved for your Alcatel PCX and must not be modi-
fied. New data relating to another GAP system must be introduced on a free entry (SYS5 for simplicity).

USING A 4074 GX HANDSET

Except for specific cases, the operations described above correspond to the options offered by the
4074 Gx in liaison with the obligatory features available on a fixed GAP system.

Automatic radio cell transfer

This feature, offered by the 4074 Gx, allows you to move from one base station to another without
interrupting communication. Nevertheless, this possibility depends on the fixed system's own limits,
particularly its capacity to manage several bases.

Role of the display

When calling from the handset, the figures dialed on the keypad are displayed. When receiving a call,
the display indicates the caller's number, if the fixed system offers this feature, otherwise the display
remains empty.

Receiving a call

An incoming call is signaled by the station's ringing tone as well as the flashing green lights and the
icon on the display.

To answer the call, . To go off hook and end the communication,

Calling by dialing manually

, then dial the number on the keypad. The line seizure icon lights up on the display. It is also pos-
sible to dial the number directly; in this case, the line is seized automatically.

Calling by personal speed dial

Press : the display shows the first entry in the directory.

To dial this number press OK. To select a different entry use the navigator's t or s keys then validate
the number to be dialed by pressing OK.

Last number redial

When the set is idle, do a long press on the key.

Flashing (calibrated cutoff)

Press t. When you press the Flashing key, the letter R appears on the display. Depending on the options
offered by the fixed system, the flashing feature can be an essential step in activating other options
(example: transferring communication to another station).

SELECTING A FIXED SYSTEM

Programming the system entries

Your 4074 Gx set can be programmed to operate on 5 different DECT systems. The first entry is ge-
nerally reserved for use with your main Alcatel system. To allocate the other entries, it is recommended
that you respect a descending order saving the most frequently used systems on the entries correspon-
ding to the lower numbers (entries 2 to 5).

Automatic/manual selection

When the systems used are installed on remote sites (far away from each other and without overlap
zones), the system is selected automatically when the set is turned on. In contrast, when fixed systems
share geographic zones, system selection can be modified by the user in the following way:

- 9 (long press): displays 1: SYSTEM NUMBER

REGISTERING THE HANDSET

For new handsets, the battery included is factory pre-charged; the level of charge is sufficient to register
the terminal. Fit the battery into the handset and check that the level of charge is adequate (full or half-
charge icon); if not, put it on the charge base.

Start the registration procedure on the PCX. When the system is ready, continue with the handset.

Step A

Long press on i to turn on the handset.

If the set is new (never been assigned) and has enough battery charge, the display shows "Auto install
system 1-OK ? ", there are two possibilities:

- if the installation doesn’t use the authentication function (AC code), go directly to step C for the
simplified procedure

- if the system uses an authentication code, press briefly on the "On-hook" key, and move
on to step B.

If the set does not display "Auto install system 1-OK ? " (it is already assigned on another system), go
to step B.

Step B

Long press on '#', for enter in the handset's local menu.

Press briefly on 't', to enter the 'System' sub-menu.

Press briefly on 'OK' to enter the 'Install' sub-menu.

Use the navigator to select a free position for the system to occupy (1, 2 or 3).

Press briefly on 'OK' to validate.

Enter the AC code, if the system uses one; otherwise go to step C.

Step C

Press briefly on 'OK' to validate and launch the registration request

When the set identifier appears on the MMC system window, validate the entry to complete the ope-
ration. Registration becomes effective once the set has been turned on and off, or after an outgoing
call has been made (the call attempt will fail).

RADIO TEST MODE

Presentation
The terminal software has a "radio test" mode for gauging the radio transmission parameters. This test
mode is restricted to technical personnel: it is essential for coverage studies, or for maintenance ope-
rations on existing sites.

Note: thanks to this function, the 4073 GS Smart can be used with existing coverage tools.

Limitations of radio test mode


The radio test mode is active in idle mode or in communication. The second line of the display is used
for radio measurement values; some of the function keys are rendered inoperative (only the simple call
setup function is maintained).

The available measurement functions serve to monitor handovers performed by the handset, to identify
local base stations and to measure the perceived reception level on the 2 closest base stations. There
is also a new function which provides an objective quality index for any given call in order to validate
the practical range limits.

All 4073 GS Smart terminals include the measurement function; no provision is made for after-sales
re-calibration. Depending on the tolerance of the components, the theoretical maximum variation of
RSSI measurements is +/- 7 dBm between several handsets. In practice, the RSSI measurement varian-
ce over several 4073 GS Smart terminals is generally within +/- 3dBm.

Entering and quitting radio test mode


To enter radio test mode (the handset must already be registered on the system):

- Long press on 'i' to turn off the handset


- Press simultaneously on 'On-hook', 'S' and 'i' until the display starts up (2nd line: "STATE-RSSI-QUA

TRAFFIC COUNTERS
8

The Alcatel OmniPCX Office PCX manages a set of DECT traffic counters. These specific counters are
mainly used to ascertain that there are enough DECT devices in an installation (correct quantity and
location given the traffic to be handled, number of communications per handset, etc.). They can also
be used during active maintenance, for example to monitor any link loss problems with a radio base
station or handset.

DECT counters are read with MMC-PM5, using the labeled addresses (this displays the content of a
specific memory area in table form).

The address System Miscellaneous -> Memory Read/Write -> Other Labels -> DectCntOn
activates or deactivates the traffic counters when using the system:

- 01 : active counters (CAUTION: incrementingthe counters may have an impact on the response
time of an alreadyheavily loaded system)
- 00 : inactive counters (default value)

GENERAL OPERATION

To measure the DECT traffic, 7 counters are associated with each active DECT base station (connected
and in service) and another 6 are associated with each DECT handset. Each of these counters gives
specific traffic data. When there is a cold system reset, the content of the counters is automatically reset
to zero.

The counters associated with the radio base stations (" base station counters") and those associated
with the handsets (" handset counters") are placed in two separate tables.

The start address of each of these tables varies from one system to another, depending on the software
version. This address must therefore be read beforehand by the usual means:" Memory Read/Write
-> Debug Labels":

- the start address of the base station counters is given by the label DectBasCnt
(005BED0 in the next example).
- the start address of the handset counters is given by the label DectHdsCnt
(0053CBC4 in the next example).

TRAFFIC COUNTERS CALL SERVER : MOBILITY

Remarques :

- In MMC-PM5, the content of a traffic counter is always a hexadecimal (base 16) value encoded
over several consecutive addresses. To obtain the corresponding decimal value, the values dis-
played must be converted manually (see following examples).
- On the first initialization, during the installation startup, all the addresses corresponding to the
DECT counters contain the value zero (00 hex.). Only the addresses "position" and "device" con-
tain a fixed value other than zero at this stage.
All counters are automatically reset to zero when there is a cold system reset. It is however possible
to reset one or more base station or handset counters manually, by assigning the value 00 to the
corresponding addresses.

SERVICES

Alcatel OmniPCX Office provides 2 services that can be combined:

1. Voice over IP is based on the Integrated H.323 Gateway, the core of Voice over IP (VoIP), which
allows communication between the conventional telephony world and the data world.

2. IP telephony enables an enterprise to share its data infrastructure (local IP network) between the
data world and the telephone world by means of an adapter known as an "IP Enabler" which con-
nects up an Alcatel Reflexes station on the LAN and/or a Windows application on a Multimedia PC
(PIMphony IP Edition) to simulate a LAN PC station. The level of service offered by the IP Enabler is
identical to that of standard Reflexes stations. For more information about Pimphony IP Edition,
consult the "Installation - configuration" file in the "Voice over IP" section.

Remarque : The IP Enabler is a TSC-IP 4098 RE/FRE add-on module in the case of a Fast IP Reflexes
station; e-Reflexes stations (Advanced, Premium and Easy) have an integrated IP mo-
dule*.

The Voice over IP services are provided by a daughter board VoIPx-1 on main CPU and/or several
(max. 6 boards) CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 (CoProcessing Unit) boards, daughter board VoIPx-
1.This board integrates an H.323 gateway which has the following main characteristics:

- from 4 to 96 DSP channels for the H.323 gateway and IP Telephony services (DSP channels for
coding / decoding the audio signal).
- supports the audio compression algorithms G711, G729a and G723.1.
- IP communications in Full Duplex mode.
- a V2-compatible H.323 gateway that complies with the following recommendations:
- supports Q.931/Q932 signaling.
- supports the H.225 v2 protocol for establishing signaling channels between H.323 gateways
(including Fast Connect).
- use of the H.245 v4 protocol to monitor communications: establishing channels, negotiating
the Codec, etc.
- RAS signaling for communications with the H.323 internal gatekeeper (H.323 v2) ot to the out-
side (authentication, authorization, bandwidth management).
- H.450.1, H.450.2, H.450.3 : additional services (transfer, forwarding).
- use of RTP/RTCP to send audio signals in real time.
- supports the T38 protocol (Fax over IP): a Fax (or Data) type call can be routed via the voice channel
over IP.
- echo suppression.
- Gain improvement
- tone generation and detection
- silence suppression (VAD). Note: do not activate voice detection on an IP station with Codec G711.
The gateway also integrates an H.323 v2 gatekeeper that provides the following functions:

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/14


SERVICES AND TOPOLOGIES CALL SERVER : VOICE ON IP

- RAS (Registration Admission Status) server.


- protection and authentication of recording sequences (H.235).
- testing the presence of remote H.323 gateways (ICMP or H.323 packets).

Nota : All communications and VoIP signals transit through the VoIP CoCPU board, except in the
case of communications between a PC and PIMphony IP or between IP stations (where only
signalling transits via the CoCPU).

Quality of Service (QoS)

Mechanisms in the system's ARS determine whether a VoIP call to a remote H.323 gateway can be
made without degradation of the bandwidth (see "Installation - Configuration" File).

The aim of quality of service in the network sense is to provide "end-to-end" QoS for all the audio IP
packets.

To achieve this, the system supports the IP ToS (IP Type of Service): each IP VoIP packet contains a 3-
bit precedence field indicating a level of priority. This information can be used by the network equip-
ment (routers, gateways, etc.) to assign a level of priority to the IP voice packets with respect to the IP
data packets. Alcatel OmniPCX Office also supports "DiffServ" (RFC 2475).

Nota : End-to-end quality of service can only be guaranteed if all the items of equipment in the
network are IP ToS or DiffServ compatible.

Environment tests

The H.323 gateway (CoCPU bpard equipped with VOIPx daughter board) is connected either to a
10Mbps Ethernet LAN or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet LAN via an RJ45 cable (caeégory 5); the IP Enablers
provide a 10 Mbps Ethernet connection (IP Enabler V1: 4098 RE) or 10/100 Mbps (Enabler V1S: 4098
FRE) - and integrate a 2-port Hub (V1) or switch (V1S) allowing chaining with a PC.

Combination between IP Telephony and IP Trunk: "RTP Proxy" service

In the case of a call between an IP terminal to a remote H.323 gateway via an IP H.323 network, this
service offered from the R2.01 version enables the audio quality of the call to be optimised.

This service avoids any unnecessary compression/decompression of voice packets; the mechanism of
previous versions (see table below) used to include the decompression of incoming packets in e-dia-
tonis, switching via the PCM bus then a new PCM/IP compression in the outgoing channel.

This mechanism is applied in calls from a handset, IP or not, connected to an Alcatel OmniPCX Office
system towards an IP terminal, remote or not, from another Alcatel OmniPCX Office system.

Nota : The "RTP Proxy" function only applies if the Codecs are identical (same Codec for IP handsets
and IP trunks for instance). If the Codecs are different, the former mechanism will be ap-
plied, namely: "incoming" call on the gateway, IP/PCM decompression and PCM/IP recom-
pression for the "outgoing" call with a different Codec.

H.323 GATEWAY SERVICE

This service can be implemented in 2 ways:

- use of the service and IA board of Alcatel OmniPCX Office as a router to Internet with built-in Proxy
and Firewall.

- using an external router to the Internet or to a dedicated link providing the same level of service as
the Office R42 range.

Nota : In the following diagrams, Alcatel OmniPCX Office is used for the Internet connection con-
figuration and the external router is used for other types of connection (leased line, ADSL,
etc.).

The Alcatel OmniPCX Office H.323 Gateway service can be implemented in either of 3 contexts:
- H.323 gateway integrated into a standalone configuration.
- H.323 gateway integrated into an H.323 zone.
- Gateway managed from another Alcatel OmniPCX Office system

In a stand-alone configuration the integrated gatekeeper is alive; it is masked to the exterior and can-
not be managed from the LAN.

In this configuration, the H.323 gateway is managed by a Gatekeeper which is integrated into another
Alcatel OmniPCX Office system and which therefore has its own gateway. This configuration is suitable
for small installations (less than 10 gateways and 50 PC/H.323 terminals).

This requires configuration of numbering plans in full for all systems. All the H.323 items (remote sys-
tem, PC, H.323 terminals) should be defined in the ARS tables of all systems. The Gatekeepers inte-
grated into other Alcatel OmniPCX Office systems should be inhibited and the IP address of these
systems' external Gatekeeper should be the same as that of the master system.

Fax over IP (FoIP)


The Fax over IP services are available when a Fax is detected in an H.323 communication. When this
happens, the Audio channels are closed and T38 sessions are initialised to transmit or receive Fax pac-
kets (IFP - Internet Fax Packet).

Alcatel OmniPCX Office only allows T38 sessions over UDP. In order to ensure the reliability of the UDP
transmission, the packets are sent several times to ensure that the information reaches its destination;
this mechanism is called "UDP Redundancy".
Furthermore, in order to reduce bandwidth use, a mechanism (framing) allows the compression of
packets of the same type.

The Fax over IP (FoIP) service does not require any particular configuration of the ARS table. A Fax com-
munication is considered a transparent H.323 communication for the ARS mechanisms.

Optimising the resources

The H450 protocol allows not to use the voice coding resources on Alcatel OmniPCX Office. In case
of transfer or forwarding request, the two initial calls are released and replaced with a single direct
call between the two parties. Thus, the bandwidth consumption is decreased and all the DSP resources
used for the initial calls are released on the Alcatel OmniPCX Office performing the forwarding or the
transfer.

The bandwidth of an Ethernet LAN can be 10 or 100 Mbps. If the network operates at 100 Mbps, ad-
ding terminals operating at 10 Mbps risks downgrading the bandwidth used by VoIP and hence audio
quality: you might need to isolate these devices on external LAN switches hooked up to the system.
CoCPU boards are connected to the local client network using a LAN switch; this solution helps reduce
Ethernet traffic on the CoCPU board.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

Preliminary

A few precautions must be taken when inserting a machine into a local network to ensure the lasting
compatibility and quality of the network.
The starting point for the integration and configuring of the PCX on a LAN is the knowledge of the
network structure, its characteristics and the equipment. After that it is necessary to collect the signifi-
cant parameters and characteristics of the LAN.
Below is a non-exhaustive list of the parameters to be collected:

CPU Board

- Hostname : DNS name or alias of the board.


- IP Address: IP address of the board.
- IP Subnet Mask : subnet mask of the LAN.

General

- Number of IP trunk DSP channels: number of channels associated with remote H.323 gateway ac-
cess.
- Number of IP subscriber DSP channels: number of channels associated with the IP Telephony ser-
vice.
- Quality of service: type of quality of service to be implemented according to the LAN equipment.

Gatekeeper

- Gatekeeper integrated into the PCX: use of an integrated gatekeeper or not.


- Identification of gatekeeper: IP address of external gatekeeper.

DHCP

- Activate the integrated DHCP server: use of the integrated DHCP server or not.
- Dynamic Range: dynamic IP address range for IP telephony (IP Enabler) or for PCs.

Remarque : In the case of a configuration involving Alcatel OmniPCX Office with Internet Access ser-
vices, the DHCP server is configured in WBM (Web Based Management).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/22


INSTALLATION - CONFIGURATION CALL SERVER : VOICE ON IP

INSTALLING THE VoIP-1 CPU BOARD

You can install up to 6 CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 boards (2 max. in the main module, 3 in the add-on mo-
dules) connected to a given Ethernet LAN via RJ45 connectors. Each board has its own IP address.

If several boards are installed, one of them is the "master" board: its IP address and software charac-
teristics serve as a reference. The other CPU boards are known as "slaves".

Remarque : Two systems equipped with CPU boards must not be connected to the same LAN. They
must be separated by a router or VLAN-compatible LAN switch. When the system starts,
the CPU board performs a Bootp query and will connect to the main CPU board which
answers this query first.

Default IP addresses

Main CPU equipped with a VoIP-1 daughter board

- Master CPU: 192.168.92.246

- CoCPU (5): from 192.168.92.248 to 192.168.92.252

- Master CPU: 192.168.92.248

- CoCPU: from 192.168.92.249 to 192.168.92.253

Remarque : Whatever the configuration, there is at least one master board and up to 5 slave boards:

The CPU boards can only be inserted when the system is powered down.

General software configuration

The general configuration defines the minimum parameters to be set regardless of the VoIP service to
be implemented:

CONFIGURING THE INTEGRATED H.323 GATEWAY

H.323 Gateway : this application layer forms the interface between the IP telephony (H.323 stack) and
switched telephony worlds (Alcatel OmniPCX Office PCX call manager).

Configuring the PCX as the H.323 gateway

After an initialization by default all the DSPs are assigned to the pool of VoIP subscriber channels (IP
telephony).
In a pure H.323 gateway configuration, all the DSPs of the PCX VoIP daughter boards will be used for
"IP network" accesses.
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System -> Voice on IP -> VoIP: Parameters -> Général tab

Number of VoIP access channels (IP trunks):Number of channels for VoIP IP access, i.e. 1 DSP
channel for 1 "network access". .

Quality of IP service: selection of the type of QoS used for the remote H.323 gateway VoIP calls.

If all the network equipment items support the IP ToS, one can choose an IP priority from 1 to 7:

If all the network equipment items are "DiffServ" compatible, one can choose from:
- DiffServ PHB Best Effort Forwarding (BE) (priority bits: 00000000 ),
- DiffServ PHB Expedited Forwarding (EF) (priority bits: 10111000 ).

Nota : Each DSP placed in the "VoIP access" pool is considered as a "network access" by the PCX,
i.e. 1 VoIP DSP = 1 B-channel. As there can be a maximum of 6 VoIP daughter boards,
each with 16 DSPs, there can be no more than 96 VoIP access DSPs, i.e. 96 "IP" B-channels.

Network accesses (T0, T2, analogue TL, DLT0, DLT2) + VoIP Accesses ≤ 120

Configuring the gatekeeper (optional)

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System -> Voice on IP -> VoIP: Parameters -> Gatekeeper tab

- Integrated gatekeeper: the Gatekeeper is integrated by default into the PCX (box is ticked); if not,
fill in the Gatekeeper's identification.
- IP Address: if the PCX is a gateway in an H.323 zone, one must use an external gatekeeper that
is the manager of the H.323 zone it covers, indicating its IP Address provided by the network ad-
ministrator.
- Reset Code : allows the resetting of a password on NetMeeting PCs that have a safety Plug-in.

- The "Destination" field of an ARS input to VoIP accesses must be of the "Gateway" type (H.323 ga-
teway).
- For a "Gateway" destination, the "IP Type" must be a static IP address (non-modifiable field).
- The "IP Address" field must be that of the remote H.323 gateway. In the example, this value cor-
responds to the IP address of the master VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board at site B.
- The "Host name" can be used instead of the IP address of the remote gateway's Gatekeeper. Re-

- Gateway Alive Protocol / Gateway Alive Timeout:
The integrated gateway tests the presence of the remote gateway every 300 seconds (Gateway Ali-

ICMP: the H.323 test protocol can only be used if the remote gateway is H.323 V2-compatible¡

Nota : Gateway Alive Timeout : if this field is at 0, the "Gateway Alive Protocol " mechanism is in-
hibited. This option is to be used in the specific situation where it is impossible to use ICMP
or H.323 to test for the presence of the remote gateway; but in this case, there is no means
whatsoever of knowing whether the remote gateway is alive or out of service.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 7/22


INSTALLATION - CONFIGURATION CALL SERVER : VOICE ON IP

- Gateway Bandwidth / QoS: for each ARS input to a remote H.323 gateway, a bandwidth must be
reserved for the Voice over IP to the remote H.323 gateway. The number of simultaneous commu-
nications that can be held depends on this value:
Bandwidth Number of simultaneous commu-
nications possible
None No communication possible De-
fault value
55.6 Kbps 1
64 Kbps 2
128 Kbps 5
256 Kbps 10
512 Kbps 20
≥ 1024 Kbps > 20

Example: if the total bandwidth corresponding to the data rate to a remote gateway is 256 Kbps and
the mean traffic level is 50%, it is wise to define a bandwidth of 128 Kbps for Voice over IP.

Remark concerning the quality of service - QoS

If we take our example, site A can make H.323 calls to sites B and C. One assumes that the bandwidths
reserved for Voice over IP at the LAN/WAN gateways of each site are:
- bandwidth reserved for VoIP on site A: 1024 Kbps (20 calls or more)
- bandwidth reserved for VoIP on site B: 128 Kbps (5 simultaneous calls)
- bandwidth reserved for VoIP on site C: 64 Kbps (2 simultaneous calls)
In this configuration one sees that it is possible to make 7 simultaneous calls from site A to the remote
H.323 gateways: 5 to site B and 2 to site C.
7 DSPs can therefore be assigned in the "VoIP access" pool for site A (7 being the number of DSPs nee-
ded to call sites B and C simultaneously).
However, let us assume that there is no ongoing communication between sites A and C, and that 5
calls are established between A and B. The total number of VoIP network access DSPs consumed in
PCX A is 5: therefore 2 DSPs remain available to establish two other calls to site B.
Yet in this example we exceed the bandwidth reserved for Voice over IP at the LAN/WAN gateway of
site B: the quality of service is no longer guaranteed.
To avoid downgrading the VoIP service, the system uses the "Gateway Bandwidth" field of the ARS table
associated with the input to the remote H.323 gateway of site B, which will be configured at 128 Kbps
(5 calls), as quality indicator (QoS): although there are still 2 DSPs available, the PCX will refuse a 6th
call to site B.

Nota : This service is not available if an external gatekeeper is used.

CALL SERVER : VOICE ON IP INSTALLATION - CONFIGURATION

Nota : To optimize management of this ARS table parameter, it is vital to have information about
the bandwidth available (reserved) for VoIP calls that is as precise as possible.

- Gateway Alive Status: this regularly updated read-only field indicates the status of the remote ga-
teway:
- Alive: remote gateway present
- Deactivated: remote gateway absent / out of service.
It can, however, turn out to be judicious to deactivate the mechanism if one is sure of network reliability,
in order to reduce the traffic.

When a site A subscriber calls a site B station by its internal number, ARS routing enables the calls to
be re-routed to the public network when it is no longer possible to call via the VoIP accesses. The fol-
lowing criteria render a "VoIP access" trunk group inaccessible:
- the VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board of site A is out of service.
- no more DSPs associated with the VoIP accesses are available.
- the remote H.323 gateway is out of service (VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board of site B out of service).
- the quality of service (QoS) to the remote gateway is poor (exceeding of the possible simultaneous
communication threshold for the bandwidth reserved for Voice over IP for this remote H.323 ga-

IP TELEPHONY

Nota : Configuration procedures are identical for a station equipped with an external IP
Enabler or with an integrated IP module.

IP Enabler connection hardware

The IP Enabler is an optional interface (4098 RE/FRE) that plugs into the back of Fast IP Reflexes stations
(in the case of e-Reflexes Advanced, Premium and Easy stations, the IP module is integrated in the sta-
tion). It is then connected as shown below:

Mains power
IP ENABLER
4098 FRE
UA
PC LAN CPU

PC LAN

LAN

- The IP Enabler is connected to the LAN via an RJ45 connector with 10 Mbps Ethernet access for IP
Enabler V1.0 (4098 RE), and 10/100 Mbps for IP Enabler V1S (4098 FRE).
- Initialisation, through static or dynamic IP addressing via DHCP, involves downloading the binary
file into the IP Enablers from the master VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board, which is considered as a
TFTP server.
- The PCX then considers an IP Enabler as a "fully-fledged" Reflexes station. Voice and signaling are
encapsulated in UDP packets and enable communications:
- IP Phone with UA / DECT / analog stations and network accesses.
- IP Phone with IP Phone.
- IP Phone with an H.323 terminal or an H.323 gateway (e.g.: NetMeeting PC).
- IP Phone with a PIMphony IP Edition.

Nota : The bandwidth of an Ethernet LAN can be 10 or 100 Mbps. If the network operates at 100
Mbps, adding terminals operating at 10 Mbps risks downgrading the bandwidth and hence
VoIP performance quality: it might be necessary to isolate these terminals on external LAN
Switches.

CONFIGURING AN IP ENABLER

Depending on the network topology, the configuring of the IP Enablers can be:
- Completely automatic, if they are on the same subnet as the PCX: simply connect the IP Enabler to
the LAN and connect the power supply unit. The DHCP server allocates the dynamic IP addresses
and the TFTP server integrated into the CPU/CPUe board downloads the binary into the IP Enabler.
- Manual, if the IP Enablers are connected to a different subnet of Alcatel OmniPCX Office, or if the
DHCP server integrated into the VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board is deactivated: in this case the three
IP parameters and the TFTP server address have to be entered on the terminals.

General IP Telephony parameter settings

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous -> VoIP -> Parameters -> General tab

Significant parameter:

Number of VoIP-Subscriber Channels: number of channels dedicated to IP subscribers: 1 channel


= 1 access.

These channels are used by the IP Enabler for communications between the IP Enabler and the system
terminals and client PC H.323 IP Enabler.

Activating/deactivating the DHCP server

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous-> VoIP ->Parameters -> DHCP tab

Significant parameters:

Enable Integrated DHCP Server: the box is ticked by default, it is the internal DHCP that assigns the
IP addresses dynamically; otherwise, the DHCP is inhibited and the IP addresses have to be entered
manually.

Dynamic Range: IP addresses range managed by the DHCP server.

Start IP Address: start of the address range.

End IP Address: end of the address range.

Nota : - No address in the range must be assigned to any other LAN equipment¡

- The DHCP server integrated to the H.323 gateway (CoCPU IP) only manages IP Enablers.

PIMPHONY IP EDITION

A PC equipped with PIMphony IP is considered by the PCX as an IP subscriber, in the same way as an
IP Enabler. No specific programming is needed.
After installing the PIMphony IP software on a PC (conventional installation procedure by Wizard), a
"Multimedia PC" type IP terminal is automatically created in the list of subscribers, with the first free
directory number. Unlike the IP Enablers, Alcatel OmniPCX Office does not manage the IP address of
a Multimedia PC; only a MAC address is registered at the first connection. No software (firmware) is
transferred between the system and PIMphony IP during the registration procedure.
Registration is an "uncovered" mechanism based on the IP protocol: the PC generates a Multicast re-
quest and waits for the reply from a VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board. During the reply / registration pha-
se, the VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board indicates its IP address to the PC and the PC transmits its Ethernet
address (MAC Address) to the PCX.
If there is no reply (e.g. IP routing problems), the PC generates the Multicast request several times, and
if no reply is obtained, PIMphony IP enters a "failure" mode. The user is then asked to indicate the IP
address of the master VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board; if the address is incorrect, another request is ma-
de.
Once registration has been performed, the IP address of the VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board is stored
in the Windows register base and will be used for all future connections. If a problem arises, such as
a change in the IP address of the VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1 board, a new registration sequence (Multicast
request) is initiated.
After initialization of PIMphony IP, IP connectivity must be permanent, otherwise the PCX considers the
PC to be out of service.

Nota : A "Multimedia PC" in the subscribers list is a PC equipped with PIMphony IP Edition.

A "netmeeting PC" does not appear in the subscribers list; it is considered as an "external
private number" and requires an entry in the ARS table.

INSTALLATION - CONFIGURATION CALL SERVER : VOICE ON IP

PC H.323

A PC equipped with NetMeeting can establish PC - Station and Station - PC communications. Only the
base station can be called with a PC equipped with NetMeeting.
A NetMeeting PC is not seen by the PCX as an IP Enabler but as a private directory number by the PCX,
and requires a specific entry in the ARS table to be authenticated and have access to the PCX services.
A NetMeeting PC uses a DSP from the "VoIP access (IP trunks)" pool for these communications with the
PCX and with a remote H.323 gateway.
A call to a NetMeeting PC is transparent for the user.
The configuration of a NetMeeting PC can be either:
- Static: its IP address serves as a reference, or
- Dynamic: the number (or the range) in the ARS entry is used for the connection.

DSP channels required for IP Trunk services

Number of DSPs = Number of VoIP network accesses = 96 max.

DSP channels required by VoIP services

The number of DSP channels (VoIP ports) required depends on the system configuration and the VoIP
services to be implemented.

The main situations are as follows:

- H.323 gateway only: the number of DSP channels is equal to the number of IP network accesses.

Nota : The desired number of DSP channels can be limited by the bandwidth reserved for VoIP
accesses. Example: if the reserved bandwidth is 64 Kbps, only 2 calls can be made si-
multaneously; the number of VoIP accesses can thus be limited to 2 channels.

- IP Telephony only: The number of DSP channels needed is indicated in the following paragraph.

- Conventional telephony (Reflexes / DECT / Z, etc.) and IP Telephony: The number of DSP channels
needed is indicated in the following paragraph

- H.323 gateway and IP Telephony: The number of DSP channels needed is indicated in the fol-
lowing paragraph. The number of DSP channels equals the desired number of IP network accesses.

The mean number A must be reduced by the number of network accesses one wants to have in this
system. A new value, called B, is calculated from the following formula:

B = Total number of network accesses - int.(B1/10) + int.(B2/20)


- B1 represents the total number of non-IP subscribers in the system (the number of IP Enablers in
the system is not included)
- B2 represents the total number of IP Enablers in the system.
- Int(B1/10) represents the whole number resulting from dividing B1 by 10 and int(B2/20) the whole
number resulting from dividing B2 by 20.

From the values A and B one obtains:

Mean number of DSP channels required for VoIP services = Min(A, absolute value of B)

Where Min(A, B) means: the smaller of the two values A and B.

Nota : The total number of DSP channels to be implemented for IP Telephony and/or IP network
accesses will be increased to the next higher value out of the possible combinations of DSPs
present in the system (reminder: a VoIP daughter board supports 4, 8 or 16 DSPs; the sys-
tem contains from 2 to 96 DSPs, varying every 2, except for 92).

In the case of IP telephony and IP trunk mixing, simply total the DSPs.

Configuration examples

H.323 gateway only

- 1 Operator station (non-IP)


- 40 Reflexes stations (non-IP)
- 5 T0 accesses
- 6 VoIP network accesses (example: 2 to a site A with a bandwidth = 64 Kbps and 2 accesses to a
site B with a bandwidth = 64 Kbps plus 2 other channels for NetMeeting PCs).
As all the DSP channels are associated with the H.323 gateway (no IP telephony), the number of DSP
channels needed for this configuration corresponds to the number of VoIP accesses, i.e. 6 (increased
to 8).

Small IP Telephony configuration

- 1 Operator station (non-IP)


- 20 IP Enabler stations
- 3 T0 (=6 channels)
In this case the mean number of DSPs associated with the 20 IP Enablers is: A=12.
B = 6 - 0 + 1 = 7.
The mean number of DSPs needed for this configuration is: Min(12, 7) = 7 (increased to 8).

Large IP telephony configuration

- 1 Operator station (non-IP)


- 70 IP Enabler stations
- 1 T2 access with 30 channels

LIMITS & RECOMMENDATIONS

VoIP services

Voice over IP services require a software key.

VoIPx-1 on main CPU

- Main CPU always master VoIP board

- maximum 5 VoIP CoCPU boards in addition

- VoIP4-1 or VoIP8-1 on main CPU

- Maximum capacity 88 VoIP channels

VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board

There can be a maximum of 6 boards in a system: one "master" board and five "slave" boards.
The "master" VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board will be the first board seen by the system. If a
VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board is added to the system, it will be considered as a "slave"
board.
A VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board is equipped with a daughter board of 4, 8 or 16 DSPs
maximum.
An Alcatel OmniPCX Office can contain a maximum of 96 DSPs.
If there is more than one VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board in a system, each of the Ethernet
ports of each board must be connected to the LAN and they must be connected to the same subnet.
It is possible to combine VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 boards with a different number of DSPs: if
the system combines the IP Telephony and H.323 Gateway services, it is strongly recommended for
the board with the largest number of DSPs to be the "master" board and that its IP address should be
used as the reference for the remote H.323 gateways.
The VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 boards are to be connected via a LAN Switch: this solution re-
duces Ethernet access traffic.

DSP channels

After a cold reset, all the DSPs of the VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board are assigned to the VoIP
subscriber channel pool by default. The DSP allocation can be modified using MMC-PM5.
Any DSP allocated to the VoIP access pool is removed from the VoIP subscriber pool: it will therefore
no longer be available for IP telephony. Conversely, a DSP from the VoIP subscriber pool will not be
able to be used for H.323 gateway calls.

IP Enabler

The theoretical limit on the number of IP Enabler + PIMphony IP stations that can be connected is 200,
however:
- it is obligatory for the operator station to be a Reflexe station connected to a UA link, which means
that at least one UAI board must be installed in the system,
- the IP Enablers are "deducted" from the limit on Reflexes stations.

The Ethernet access of an IP Enabler is at 10 Mbps (IP Enabler V1/4098 RE) or 10/100 Mbps (IP Ena-

bler V1S/4098 FRE).

"VoIP Access" channels: H.323 gateway

A DSP channel of a VoIP CoCPU/CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board assigned to the pool of VoIP access chan-
nels is considered by the system to be a public network access, that is to say "1 B channel".
Alcatel OmniPCX Office can have a maximum of 120 public network accesses: the maximum number
of DSPs assigned to the VoIP access pool is 96.
Network accesses (T0, T2, DLT2, DLT0, TL) + VoIP accesses ≤ 120

ARS entry

The number of entries in the ARS table with a remote H.323 gateway as destination is limited to 500.
The number of entries in the ARS table that make reference to a PC (individual entry or with a range)
is limited to 150.

VoIP SERVICES - CoCPU BOARD

System with a single CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board

If the CoCPU board equipped with daughter board is out of service, none of the VoIP services (H.323
gateway and IP Telephony) is available.
Resetting the H.323 gateway (CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board reset) releases all on-
going communications on the H.323 gateway; reinitializing the IP telephony service resets all the IP
Enablers and the communications in progress on the Multimedia PCs.
Modifying the IP address associated with the CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board resets
the board and all the ongoing VoIP services.

System with several CoCPU boards equipped with VoIP daughter board

If the "master" CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board is out of service, all the VoIP services
(H.323 gateway and IP Telephony) are temporarily unavailable. The PCX "switches" the VoIP services
over to a "slave" CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board: the PCX assigns it the IP address
of the faulty board (reference address for the VoIP services: H.323 gateway, TFTP server, etc.), thereby
enabling the VoIP services to be maintained (the number of possible VoIP communications will however
be limited to the number of DSPs remaining).
After replacing the faulty CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board, it will automatically be
assigned the old IP address, which is now free, of the new "master" CoCPU board equipped with VoIP
daughter board: the new board will be "slave"; the PCX does not return to the pre-failure configuration.

Nota : It is recommended that the "master" CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board of
a PCX should be the one that has the largest number of DSPs. For systems with 2 boards,
such as a CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board with 16 DSPs and a CoCPU
board equipped with VoIP daughter board with 4 DSPs, if the 4-DSP CoCPU board equip-
ped with VoIP daughter board has become the system "master" board following a fault af-
fecting the 16-DSP CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board, then you should
return to the original configuration after replacing the 16-DSP CoCPU board equipped with
VoIP daughter board by unplugging the 4-DSP CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter
board for a few minutes.

The CoCPU boards equipped with VoIP daughter board cannot be plugged or unplugged
on a powered-up system.

If a "slave" CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board is out of service, all the VoIP services will
be redirected to the "master" CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board. However, the number
of possible VoIP communications will be limited to the number of DSPs remaining.

Loss of IP connectivity

It takes several seconds for loss of connection to be detected: the IP Enabler attempts to restore the
connection for several seconds. During this period the user may observe a slowing in the station dis-
plays resulting from repeated restoring and loss of connections.

Multimedia PC

If the "keep alive" mechanism detects a problem between a NetMeeting PC and the system (PCX reset,
CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board reset, IP connectivity problems), NetMeeting sends
the user an error message: the user can either quit the application or wait to be reconnected.

sible.
- Automatic overflow: VoIP call to/from gateway xxxxx refused because "not enough VoIP access
channels available".
- Diagnosis: if this alarm occurs frequently, the dimensioning of the DSPs must be reviewed:
either the bandwidth in the ARS table must be increased, or the number of DSPs assigned to
VoIP accesses must be increased, or another CoCPU board equipped with VoIP daughter board
must be added.

- IP Telephony failures: no more DSP channels available.

- Diagnosis: if this alarm occurs frequently, the number of DSPs assigned to the IP subscriber pool
must be increased (either by reducing the number of VoIP access DSPs or by adding a CoCPU
board equipped with VoIP daughter board).
- The IP Enabler cannot be initialized because of a DHCP server fault (no IP addresses available).

Global offering

Depending on the medium (or protocol) used, placing Alcatel OmniPCX Office systems on private
networks offers the following main services:

- calls on ISDN, QSIG and VPN lines: CLIP/COLP services, conversion into private dialling for
outgoing and incoming calls.
- Public or Private ISVPN: in addition to the previous services, optimization of transfers and forwar-
ding, additional information (transmission of the name, busy status, forwarding).
- ISVPN+: with regard to ISVPN services, addition of metering information.
- IP Networking: setting up an IP network using the existing data network to carry voice data at lower
cost; for more details see the "Voice over IP" section.

The table below shows the principles of use for the various protocols, depending on the amount of
traffic and the requested level of service.

ENVIRONMENTS

Nota :

The DLT-TL interconnection must be implemented with precaution in order to avoid any TL blocking
(e.g. a break-in by transfer between a TL without polarity inversion and a DLT joining on a remote user
forwarded to an external number by another TL; in this case, there is no release of communications
on these TLs).

VPNs ON PUBLIC LINKS

These virtual networks are specific to the country and the network operator. In these networks, which
use the public operator protocols (analog or ISDN), private and public calls are routed on the same
lines. Among these networks are:

- Fiat in Italy: analog or ISDN protocol


- Transgroupe (Collisée Performance) in France: ISDN protocol only

This environment makes it possible to redirect calls to operators offering attractive rates, for interna-

Depending on the analysis of the requested number, the ARS automatically redirects the call, transpa-
rently for the user, to another indirect substitution network and then retransmits the destination number
as follows:
- seizure of a line in the network of the main operator
- dialing the access code or the number of the indirect operator
- waiting for an intermediary tone (or pause)
- switching into transparent MF dialing
- optional transmission of the account code (waiting for a 2nd tone or pause)

Features

OPTIMIZED FORWARDING AND TRANSFER (digital networks only)

The path used by a call can be optimized in the following cases:

- immediate forwarding
- external dynamic forwarding
- external forwarding of operator calls
- transfer

Optimized immediate forwarding

Optimization of the path is carried out by rerouting the call.

- Optimisation of the path between 3 nodes

NETWORK

A
C

A (1st node) calls B (2nd node) forwarded on C (3rd node). The result of the optimization corresponds
to a direct call from A to C.

- Optimisation of the path between 2 nodes

B
NETWORK

A (1st node) calls B (2nd node) forwarded on C (1st node). The result of the optimization corresponds
to a local call from A to C.

Nota :

If the forwarding destination calls the forwarding initiator, then the forwarding is overridden.
A parameter (PM5 -> System Miscellaneous -> Feature Design -> Part 5) allows to define the maxi-
mum number of successive forwardings (transmissions threshold: 5 by default).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 7/20


THE NETWORK OFFERING CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

Optimized transfer

The optimization mechanism is applied when the 2 external correspondents are on the same ISVPN
node; the transfer can be monitored (connected) or not (on ringer).

Situation: B (master) is in communication with 2 correspondents (A and C) on the same system.

A
B

Optimisation: the 2 communications are released and resynchronized on the remote system: a local
call is made from A to C.

NETWORK

A B

NETWORK FORCING (forced dialing)

For reasons of cost, a call from a public network user can be made to use private links as a priority,
followed by public lines if the private network is completely busy (ARS configuration).

OVERFLOW

When a destination can be joined in several ways and one of the paths fails (no more resources availa-
ble for example), the ARS automatically tries to take another path (private network -> public network
or vice versa, from one public operator to another).

Overflow is controlled by the barring and traffic sharing mechanisms.

Overflow can also be applied to data communications.

BREAK-IN / BREAK-OUT (INCOMING TRANSIT / OUTGOING TRANSIT)

Break-in and break-out services make it possible to carry out inter-establishment communications from
a private network; this is realized with the use of lines leased between 2 or more PCXs belonging to
this private network.

Break-in (Incoming Transit)

This service corresponds to the transit of incoming calls from the public network to a private network
via leased lines; thus, an external correspondent can join a private network user who is not connected
to the same system as the line on which the call is routed.

Break-in can be implemented in 2 ways:

- automatically by DDI numbers


- manually by the operator (joining by transfer)

THE NETWORK OFFERING CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

Manual break-in

This is a joining by transfer between an incoming T0/T2 access or a TL and a leased line.

In this case, the external correspondent accesses the line leased between PCXs A and B only through
an operator (or a station); the operator of PCX A puts the caller on hold, establishes an enquiry call
communication (seizure of the leased line + number of the remote subscriber) then carries out a trans-
fer.

Settings:

T According to the environment (analog/digital), authorize the various joinings between external
lines:
- by DHM-PM5 (Expert View), select: System Miscellaneous-> Traffic Sharing and Barring -
> Joining ->check the boxes to authorize the necessary joinings.

T At system level, authorize external/external transfers: select


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View) select: System Miscellaneous -> Feature Design -> check Trans-
fer Ext/Ext

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View) select: Subscribers/Base stations List-> Subscribers/Base sta-
tions List -> Details-> Features -> check "Join Incoming and Outgoing" and "Join Outgoing
and Outgoing".

Automatic break-in

The public network correspondent joins a remote system subscriber using his DDI number. This service
is only offered for calls routed on T0 or T2 and on customized TL (analognetwork line under call dis-
tribution).

Configuring with MMC-PM5:

The numbering plan for public incoming calls and ARS mechanisms enable correspondence between
the DDI number coming from the public network and the subscriber (or hunting group) directory num-
ber in the private network.

Nota :

- if the break-in call fails, the call is handled depending on the configuration of the analog protocol
or the table corresponding to incoming calls for digital leased lines (forwarded to operator or re-
leased).
- manual call pick-up (with RSP key) from a member of the operator hunting group is impossible in
call phase (before remote connection or re-routing to operator).
- distribution of a welcome message on a break-in call is impossible.

Break-out/Proximity break-out

- Break-out (Outgoing Transit)

A break-out makes it possible for the user of PCX A to call, via leased lines, a public network user by
using lines external to PCX B.

- Proximity break-out

A proximity break-out is a special use of the break-out: a call to the public network can be guided in
order to exit via the public accesses which are closest to the destination.

Example: a PCX A user (STRASBOURG) calls C (PARIS); the call is redirected on the private network
between PCXs A and B (PARIS) in such a way that it exits via B's public accesses.

This feature makes it possible to offer communications which are advantageous from a cost point of
view; there are 2 ways of calling a public user from A:
- direct call by the public network; in this case, the communication is charged as a national commu-
nication.
- exit via B; thanks to the line leased between the 2 PCXs, only the part of the call from PCX B is
charged as a local communication.

CENTRALIZED OPERATOR

An incoming call, in transit on a PCX or transferred whilst ringing (unsupervised transfer) on a leased
line, which is not answered after a certain amount of time, is automatically re-directed to the operator
of the system which received the call.

The CENTRALIZED OPERATOR, the name given to this feature, is organized around the PCXs connec-
ted to the network over leased lines. One of the PCXs, configured as the "Master", will have the CEN-
TRALIZED OPERATOR STATION. The other "Satellite" PCXs may also have local operators.

Environment

When installing this feature on a PCX network, the following must be taken into account:

- A specific programming procedure, performed for each PCX in the network, makes it possible to
configure a Master PCX and Satellite PCXs. The operator of the PCX configured as the Master be-
comes the Centralized Operator.
- Only incoming calls issued from the T0 or T2 network interfaces of the Master PCX go through the
centralized operator mechanism. Nevertheless, Satellite PCXs can be equipped with network junc-
tors and a local operator thus enabling autonomous management of their traffic.
- An incoming call routed to the centralized operator benefits from the welcome message mecha-
nism, if it is active.
- The display on the centralized operator is usually provided for incoming calls which are routed to it.
- An incoming call which is considered as "non telephone" by the system, is not subject to the cen-
tralized operator mechanism. For example, an incoming T0 ISDN call a G4 Fax service.

Centralized
Operator

To redirect the call to the centralized operator, there are two possible solutions: the "ReroutOpe" func-
tion of the transit system (PCX1), or dynamic routing/attendant forwarding of PCX2.

Using ReroutOpe:

- Configure a timeout value before re-routing through PCX1:

System Miscellaneous -> Memory Read/Write -> Misc. Labels -> ReroutOpe.

Default value: 00 00: rerouting of in transit calls towards the centralized operator is inactive.

Configuration example: ReroutOpe = C8 00 (no 100 ms, 20 seconds).


An call in transit towards the satellite, in the event of no reply, will be rerouted to the centralized ope-
rator on PCX1 after 20 seconds (PCX1 releases the line to PCX2).

Nota : Only DDI calls routed directly to PCX2 (break-in) fall under ReroutOpe timeout (this mecha-
nism does not apply to a network line under call distribution).

If PCX2 users are using dynamic routing (for example towards the Voice Mail unit), the Re-
routOpe timeout value must be superior to the dynamic routings used by PCX2 users.

Dynamic routing/Attendant group routing:

It is also possible to re-route calls from PCX1 to PCX1 using dynamic routing on PCX2 stations and the
Attendant group routing function within the time ranges of PCX2.

- Configuring a collective speed dial number in PCX2 (n° 8000 for example) with PCX1's operator as
destination.
The trunk group assigned to this number must be an homogenous logical direction for optimization to
be effective.
Time ranges -> Destination for time ranges = 8000; Attendant Diversion = Yes within
forwarding time ranges

- Configuring PCX2 stations supporting dynamic routing on attendant group:


Subscribers/Basestations List -> Station (choose station) ->Details -> Dyn routing -> Ti-
meout T2 = XX ; External calls column - Level 2 : check "Use Timer 2", "Forwarding to gene-
ral level" and "Diversion apply".

This configuration offers the same operation as ReroutOpe timeout but is more flexible for choosing
which calls are rerouted or not to the centralized operator:

- by choosing dynamic routing of PCX2 users, it is possible to choose which calls, internal or external,
are rerouted to the centralized operator.
- this configuration can be customized for each station (for example by suppressing dynamic routing
at general level for an analog device equipped with a fax.
- It is possible to choose different re-routing timeouts (T1, T2) for each user.

EXTERNAL FORWARDING OF OPERATOR CALLS

This service makes it possible to forward all operator calls (local calls, public and private incoming
calls, operator recalls, dynamic forwardings) to a public or private external destination.

For a more detailed description, see the relevant section in "Telephone Features".

AUTOMATIC CALL-BACK ON BUSY TRUNK GROUP

If a call goes through ARS mechanisms and if all the configured trunk groups are busy, it is possible
to activate an automatic call-back request on a busy trunk group. The user is called back as soon as
a line in the first trunk group (traffic sharing) proposed by the ARS mechanisms is released.

DISTRIBUTION IN A PRIVATE DIGITAL NETWORK

- The handling of external calls (on public lines) and internal calls (on leased lines) can be configured
differently.
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: External lines-> Incoming Call Handling. For each type
of line, you can define the actions (call released or forwarded to the operator) in the following
situations:
- depending on whether the caller is public or private
- called party busy 2nd degree
- other called party status (in Do Not Disturb forwarding, out of service, recall situation fol-
lowing a transfer failure)
- misdial

In the case of unanswered calls on leased lines, the dynamic forwarding mechanisms of an internal
(local) call relative to the called set are applied.

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: System Miscellaneous -> Feature Design -> Private
Call Presentation

- Presentation to the caller

On the caller's set, the display always shows the number dialed by the user (not the one after modifi-
cations by the ARS).

The number can be replaced by the name (name received if ISVPN, or name in the personal or collec-
tive speed dial numbers).

- Handover

In case of a transfer within an ISVPN network, the ISVPN subscribers' displays are handled as if they
were in the same system. Especially after a transfer of an incoming call from user A to user B in a dif-
ferent node, the display of B indicates the external caller rather than the user A.

- Diversion/Dynamic routing

If an incoming call to subscriber A is diverted to subscriber B in a different node, the call is presented
to B with the name of A on the display (or, failing that, the number of A).

CALLED PARTY STATUS

During an outgoing call, the ISVPN protocol makes it possible to signal to the caller whether the called
party is busy; the called party's busy status is only indicated by a message on the caller's display; there
is no audio indication (the caller always hears the call-back tone transmitted by the network).

INTRUSION

When the remote correspondent is grade 1 busy, the ISVPN protocol makes it possible to intrude on
this set (unless it is protected against intrusion).

PRINCIPLES OF ARS MECHANISMS

OUTLINE

ARS is a mechanism which, during the routing of a call:

- forces the use of the most appropriate path according to the number dialed.
- chooses another path if the most appropriate one is overloaded.

This mechanism is applied independently of the type of:

- trunk group: public or private


- support: analog or digital
- call: voice or data

ARS is completely transparent for the user; the number dialed is, if necessary, modified automatically
according to the chosen itinerary.

Nota : If the ARS mechanism modifies the number dialed by the user:

- the station's display shows the number dialed by the user.


- It is the emitted number (modified by the ARS) which is analyzed in the discrimination.
- the charge ticket shows the emitted number (modified by the ARS).

The ARS mechanism can be applied for the following calls:

- outgoing call with manual dialing:


- without specific line seizure
- with specific public line seizure
- using resource keys assigned to a trunk group
- outgoing call with automatic dialing:
- call keys
- personal and collective speed dial numbers, call by name
- last number redial, temporary memory number
- last callers directory
- all types of forwarding and routing to an external destination
- VPN configurations (Transgroupe/heterogeneous network) for converting a public number into a
private number (incoming call) or vice versa (outgoing call).

PRINCIPLES OF ARS MECHANISMS CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

CONFIGURING ARS PARAMETERS

ARS is implemented when the "Base" field is empty for the "Main trunk group seizure" and "Secondary
trunk group seizure" features in the main numbering plan and the numbering plans for private and
public incoming calls.

Main numbering plan

Start End Base Feature NMT Private


XXXX XXXX Main trunk group Keep or Yes/No
Drop
XXXX XXXX Secondary trunk groups Keep or Yes/No
Drop

Base: if this field is empty, the call is of type ARS; if not, it is a trunk group call.

NMT :this field defines whether the digits defined in the "Start" and "End" fields are absorbed or con-
served.
Priv: this field is a reference for the "Network" parameter in the ARS table:
- Yes: the outgoing number in the numbering plan is compared to the entries in the ARS table with
"Network" = Private.
- No: the outgoing number in the numbering plan is compared to the entries in the ARS table with
"Network Identifier" = Public, Urg. or Code auth.

After analysis and possible modification by the NMT, the outgoing digits in the numbering plan are
entered in the ARS table.

Number ARS Number


dialled TABLE transmitted

ARS TABLES

The installer determines the numbers or parts of numbers in front of the ARS handling. For each des-
tination defined by a prefix, it creates a "trunk group list". For each index in the list, it is possible to
assign one or several trunk groups and commands for modifying the dialing.

The ARS prefix replaces the external seizure prefix. On recognition of the prefix, the system determines
the associated "trunk group list". The ARS mechanism therefore uses the route by activating the call on
the corresponding trunk group. If the trunk group is busy, the next programmed route is used.

Nota : In some instances, the equivalent French acrostic "ADL" may be found instead of "ARS".

As many trunk group lists as are authorized can be allocated to each prefix; by default no prefix is
defined.

Network: this network identifier defines the prefixes as public prefixes (Pub), private prefixes (Priv), pu-
blic emergency numbers (Urg) or public access codes (Code auth.).

Prefix: an empty field (default value) corresponds to the numbers which do not correspond to any pre-
fix for the network identifier concerned.
Range: this is used both for outgoing and incoming calls; there is no range for public emergency num-
bers or public access codes. It is possible to enter several ranges (separate them using the ";" character)
within the authorized limits (see previous page).

Replace: the ARS prefix can be modified by the contents in this field.

- prefix = empty; replace = empty: transparent dialing in the ARS table


- prefix = empty; replace = XXX: addition of digits XXX
- prefix = XXX; replace = empty: absorption of digits XXX
- prefix = XXX; replace = XXX: no modification (no addition nor absorption)
- prefix = XXX; replace = YYYY: replace XXX by YYYY

TrGp List : this field defines the index for one or several selected trunk group lists. Priority is given to
the trunk groups in the first list, in the order of programming, then to the second list, and so on.

Called party (ISVPN/H450) :the called party belongs to a homogenous network (Alcatel OmniPCX
or Alcatel 4400) or a heterogeneous network (systems made by different manufacturers).
Note: the information entered in this field is memorized in the system.

Metering: only significant for a centralized metering application (NMC), this field is only used for en-
tering additional information in the metering data:

- field empty
- overflow
- network (private network forcing)
- VPN
- VPN + network
- VPN + overflow

Description of the "Caller" and "Called" parameters

The following fields are to be filled in for specific network topologies (in the majority of cases, the de-
fault values are sufficient). These fields concern the coding and contents of the data sent in a call.

Caller: the caller's number corresponds to the private numbering plan (the caller's private number,
made up from the private installation number, must be transmitted) or to the public numbering plan
(the public number is made up from the public installation number).

Called/PP: the sent called party's number is public or private (field reserved mainly for VPNs; "Type of
dialing plan" in the setup: Public Network).

Important : Use of default values in the "Caller" and "Called" fields.

For appropriate use of default values in these fields, the installer must take the following remarks into
account:

- The type of line must be configured correctly.


- by MMC-PC, select: External Lines -> External Lines ->select line -> Details ->select or
deselect ❏ Public Trunk):
- a DLT2/DLT2/VOIP access must be configured as a private line (default value)
- a T0 or T2 access must be configured as a public line (or a private line if linked with an
Alcatel OmniPCX 4400 system)

- On a private link, the caller's private number is transmitted by preference; nevertheless, if the pri-
vate number is not available, the public number (break-out only) or the private installation number
(call in the private network) is transmitted.
On a public link, the caller's public number is transmitted; if it is not available, no caller identifica-
tion is supplied.
- The default values are to be used for all outgoing calls to the public network (the 2 fields are public)
and for all calls in the private network (the 2 fields are private).
On the other hand, it is recommended to use specific values for VPN calls (the 2 fields are private
whilst the external line is public) or when the Alcatel OmniPCX Office is connected by a line leased
to a particular system.

Possible combinations

This paragraph describes the significant combinations for the "Caller" and "Called" fields according to
the network environment of an Alcatel OmniPCX Office system.

- for an outgoing call on a leased link (QSIG): only the following fields are significant:
- caller = private or public
- called = private (heterogeneous and homogenous values are also used).
- for an outgoing call on public link:
- caller = private or public
- called = values according to the table below:
Called/PP Called Par- Use
ty (ISVPN/
H450)
Public Homoge- Internal call from a user in a private network (homogenous ISVPN)
nous
Public Heterogen. Outgoing call to the public network or internal call from a user in the pri-
vate network (heterogeneous ISVPN)
Private Heterogen. Internal call from a user in the private network (heterogeneous VPN) or
outgoing call to the public network by VPN private dialing (ISDN user also
declared in VPN)
Private Homoge- Internal call from a user in a private network (homogenous VPN)
nous

TRUNK GROUP LISTS

Each trunk group list can have as many trunk groups as are authorized within the global limits.

The "Access digits", "Authorization code" and "Tone/pause" fields are specific to MULTI-OPERATOR
MODE.

Example:

TrG Index TrGp. Char. Provider / Destina- Access di- Authoriza- Tone/Pause
p list tion gits tion code
1 1 0 FT LOCAL
3 503 T FT LOCAL 131 02 02

List: identifier for each trunk group list (see table of prefixes).

Index: this field makes it possible to select one or several trunk groups identified by an index (1 to
120); for a list with several trunk groups, priority is given to the first index. LOCAL is used when no
trunk is used to call the destination and allows to configure this entry as an internal call.
N°: this field automatically displays the directory number of each trunk group in the list.
Char: this field defines a character used in metering or on set displays (for example: T for Transgrou-

pe).
Provider/destination: the operator name used depends on the time range (see below).
If a label is defined for a trunk, the control system checks the validity of the label for the considered
time range. If it is valid, the trunk group is selected if it respects the traffic sharing conditions. If not,
there will be an overflow to the next trunk group. The presence of a label in this field implies the con-
figuring of time slots, groups of days, etc.
Access digits: this field defines the code for accessing an indirect network.
Auth. Code ID: index (1 to 24) in the "customer code" table.
Tone/Pause: index (1 to 8) in the "Tone/Pause" table

Nota : Using the "Provider" field requires a complete programming of the ARS time ranges.

NETWORK SERVICE PROVIDERS

This table defines the names of the various network service providers associated with a trunk group list
for each time range. The table can also receive internal destinations.

TIME RANGES

The use of time ranges in the ARS allows the operator to select the route offering the best cost condi-
tions at any given instant. Access to the operator can be direct (e.g. Cégétel) or indirect (e.g. Espadon).

Start End Day group Provider / Provider / Provider / Provider /


Destination 1 Destination 2 Destination 3 Destination 4
08:00 1 FT LOCAL ESPADON CEGETEL
2 CEGETEL
3
12:00 1 FT LOCAL
2
3

The table defines different time ranges and to associate providers with each day group in each range;
it is also possible to enter internal destinations (the same as are indicated in the "Provider / Destina-
tions" table).
4 providers can be associated with each combination of time range/day groups. If 2 labels out of the
4 relate to the same destination, the associated trunk groups must be different so as to enable overflow
if one of the providers is busy.
If no provider is defined for a given combination, a route will be selected from amongst the trunk
groups without associated provider labels, independently of the time ranges. The same mechanism
applies for the days in the week or bank holidays not associated with a day group.
It is recommended to put one trunk group without provider in each trunk group list to be able to flow
the call in all possible cases of figures.
Total number of time ranges: max. 500 (including the entries of the prefix and of the trunk group ta-
bles)..

DAY GROUPS

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 7/20


PRINCIPLES OF ARS MECHANISMS CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

This table defines an operating mode (carrying out a day group) for each day of the year.

- Days of the week:

In order to simplify management, the 7 days of the week are split into 7 groups (for example: the 5
working days = groupe 1, Saturday and Sunday = groupe 2)

Day of the week Day Month Year Day group


Monday 1
Tuesday 1
Wednesday 1
Thursday 1
Friday 1
Saturday 2
Sunday 2
14 7 * 2
1 5 * 2
30 3 1997 2

- Bank holidays:

There is no need to define the year for fixed bank holidays (* character = each year); for variable bank
holidays, indicate the year (using 4 figures).

Nota : The data contained in this table can also be entered using MMC-Station.

AUTHORIZATION CODES (MULTI-OPERATOR MODE ONLY)

This table (24 entries of up to 10 characters) defines the secret access codes between the networks of
different operators.

CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS PRINCIPLES OF ARS MECHANISMS

"TONE/PAUSE" (MULTI-OPERATOR MODE ONLY)

This table (8 entries max.) is indicated by the "Tone/Pause" parameter of trunk group lists. It defines
the reactions when a call is redirected to an indirect network: pause duration or tone detection, auto-
matic switch over to MF dialing.

Example:

Index Time/Tone before Auth.(ms) Time/Tone after Auth (ms) Force MF


1 Tone 8 No
2 Tone Yes

Time/Tone: the following values are possible:

- Tone: if value = Tone, the PCX waits for the dial tone before transmitting the dialing on the line.
Waiting for the tone is only possible on analog lines.
- XXX: the PCX waits XXX milliseconds (from 8 to 20000, in multiples of 8 ms) before transmitting the
dialing on the line.

Force MF: after the access code, the network which is called indirectly can receive the digits in a si-
gnaling mode different from the one on the line in use. If the value in this field is YES, then all dialing
transmitted after the access code is MF.

ARS MISCELLANEOUS (MULTI-OPERATOR MODE ONLY)

2 flags are proposed:

- Manual direct access: this flag is only analyzed if the "Prefix" field in the ARS table relates to a public
access code (code auth). If the dialed number has a public access code and if the flag is not autho-
rized, the call is rejected.
- Automatic indirect access: this flag is analyzed when the "Access digits" field in a trunk group list is
filled in. When the flag is not authorized, the next line in the trunk group list is analyzed.

PRINCIPLES OF ARS MECHANISMS CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

BASIC PRINCIPLES FOR UNDERSTANDING ARS MECHANISMS

For a particular prefix, it is possible to define several ranges

Network Prefix Ranges Substitute


Priv 36 0-1 ; 22-23 ; 444-555 ; 6666-7777 03887766
Priv 36 24-25 ; 87-97 03884433
Priv 36 - 03881100

36123 dialled -> selection of the first entry (123 belonging to the range 0-1).

368899 dialled -> selection of the second entry (8899 belonging to the range 87-97).
3699 dialled -> selection of the third entry (99 not belonging to any range defined for the prefix 36).

If a range covers other prefixes for outgoing calls, the first range corresponding to the digits
dialed is selected

Network Prefix Ranges Substitute


Priv 36 5-6 ; 888-999 03887766
Priv 36 88-99 03884433

3655 dialled -> selection of the first entry (55-66 included in 5-6).

36889 dialled -> selection of the first entry (888-999 included in 88-99).

Different ranges cannot be defined between the fields "Prefix" and "Substitute"

36 [01-03] cannot be replaced by 03886777[51-53] -> 3 entries have to be created in the ARS table.

There is an overlap between 03887766[00-99] and 0388776688. For incoming calls, there are 2
possible conversions of the public number 0388776688 into private numbers: 3688 and 3588. For
example, to convert the public number into the private number 3688, configure the ARS as follows:

Network Prefix Ranges Substitute


Priv 36 00-87 03887766
Priv 3588 88-88 03887766
Priv 3689 89-99 03887766

For incoming calls, the public number received, 03887766XX is converted into the private number
35[88-99] if XX does not belong to the range 00-87.

ARS INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER SERVICES

LINE ALLOCATION

This feature is incompatible with ARS mechanisms.

BARRING AND TRAFFIC SHARING

The traffic sharing mechanism within a trunk group list or between trunk group lists can be used to
authorize overflow between trunk groups for specific users.

When barring prohibits dialing on the selected trunk group, no overflow is possible and the call is re-
leased.

EMERGENCY NUMBERS

This paragraph only concerns the emergency numbers defined when the system is initialized (numbers
installed in ROM).

ARS table base fields:

Network Prefix Ranges Substitute TrGp list Called Par- User com.
ty (ISVPN/
H450)
Urg - - - XX

The only possible configurations for emergency numbers ("Network" field = Urg.) are:

- prefix = empty; replace = empty: transparent dialing in the ARS table


- prefix = empty; replace = XXX: addition of digits XXX (useful for break-out)

The traffic sharing and barring mechanisms are not applied to emergency numbers (as with collective
speed dial numbers).

If the emergency number is dialed after line seizure, the call goes through the ARS mechanisms if the
line figures among the trunk groups in the ARS tables; if not, the number is transmitted on this line
directly.
If the ARS table has no entry for emergency numbers, the trunk group associated with the default public
prefix is used, if there is one; if not, the main trunk group is used.

INTERNAL ARS DESTINATIONS

ARS mechanisms can handle internal destinations.

INTERNAL CALL FORCING


When a user tries to call a correspondent (connected to the same Alcatel OmniPCX Office system or
belonging to the same private network) by dialing the correspondent's public number, the ARS mecha-
nism converts the public number into an internal number, and an internal call is made.

CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS PRINCIPLES OF ARS MECHANISMS

REROUTING ON OPERATOR BUSY

Definition
When a call cannot get through because the operator is busy, this mechanism automatically reroutes
it via another operator.

The rerouting mechanism is totally transparent to the user (no specific tone or display).

The mechanism is only offered for calls routed by ARS over ARS trunk groups (ISDN trunk groups only).

Automatic rerouting when the operator is busy is activated by the triggers defined by the "BsyPrvCaus"
flag and refers to the ARS table settings.

Configuration example
In this example, at any moment of the week calls starting by 089 are processed by the operator Mo-
bilcom, and by Teldafax if Mobilcom is busy. If Teldafax is also busy, these calls will be processed by
the preselected operator Telekom.

All other external calls (calls not starting with 089) are processed by Telekom.

In B , these settings make the following services available:

in the DDI numbering plan. The full number is handled by the ARS table and converted into the
private number 3111. B can now make a private call on the QSIG link and join with the incoming
public call.
- private network forcing: for example, user 3210 dials the number 00388677711; the ARS converts
this public number into the private number 3111.
- break-out: user 3111 calls 0384273045; he dials 00384273045. The caller's number sent on the

METERING
APPLICATION

For all incoming and outgoing calls made within the network, the master system (the one connected
to the public network) gathers the required information and sends it to a centralized metering appli-
cation. The following information is transmitted to the master system:

- outgoing call: all the data presented in the following paragraph is managed at the caller's system
level then transmitted to the master system. The flags characterizing the call are accumulated throu-
gh the different systems during transmission to the master.
- incoming call: the number "transmitted" to the called party and the various flags are generated by
the master system. During the setup of a communication with the called party, the flags characte-
rizing the call are accumulated through the different systems. The number of the charged caller,
the metering node number and the accumulated flags are forwarded to the master system with the
connection message.

DATA TRANSMITTED

This paragraph describes the information which is transmitted to the master system by the other sys-
tems in the network; this data is conveyed by the QSIG protocol UUS.

Global data: Node number

This datum (unique value 0 to 127; by default: 255) identifies the system in the network.

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: External Lines -> Protocols -> ISVPN Protocol ->
Node Number. This information is only used by the metering application (not used in a tele-
phone context). The node number indicated is the one to which the charged user is connected.

Data relative to each communication

- "transmitted" number: number resulting from the NMT conversion of the number dialed after ana-
lysis in the main numbering plan (or NMT conversion of the number received after analysis in the
incoming public call numbering plan); it is thus possible to compare the number sent (to the ARS
table) by the system with the original number dialed.
- charged user: This datum depends on the type of call:
- outgoing call or break-out: caller
- incoming call or break-in: user having answered the call; this user may be different to the called
user (forwarding, call pick-up, etc.)
- transfer: user who is the destination of the transfer
- flags characterizing an ARS call:
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: Numbering -> Automatic Routing Selection -> ARS
Table -> Option: Metering:
- forcing onto private network (private): this flag indicates whether an outgoing call has
been rerouted onto leased lines by the ARS.
- overflow: this flag indicates whether the trunk group used for the current call has been ob-
tained after overflow by the ARS.

- complementary services: This data indicates the services activated in order to carry out the current
call:
- substitution (DISA transit)
- use of the ARS table
- homogenous ISVPN call
- VPN call (Transgroupe for example)
- supplementary network facility: indirect access to an operator
- on-line metering request in the event of break-out

CLOCK SYNCHRONISATION
5

SYNCHRONIZATION IN MODULES

Nota : The digital accesses (T0, T2, etc.) in an add-on module can under no circumstances serve
as synchronizing accesses for the system (it is impossible to feed the clock back from an
add-on module to the basic module CPU over an HSL link).

If the system includes digital accesses, then there are several eventualities:

- Case 1: No access in main module, all accesses are in an add-on module:


- The accesses will try to supply the clock to the system, and the system will refuse.
- System message 51 - Clock Problem; the system operates on the local clock.
- Case 2: There is a T2 in the add-on module and a non-permanent level 1 T0 in the basic module:
- If the T0 is in communication, its level 1 is therefore established and it is the T0 which provides
the clock for the system.
- If the T0 is not in communication, the T2 access will attempt to supply the clock to the system
when it synchronizes with the network public (as in case 1). The clock supplied by T2 will be
refused; a message 51 is generated; the system operates on the local clock.
- Case 3: There is a permanent T0 or a T2 in the basic module. Regardless of the accesses present
in the add-on modules, the clock is supplied by one of the accesses in the basic module.

Conclusion: You need to equip at least one digital access in the basic module (and if possible, a per-
manent level 1 T2) with a priority higher that that of all accesses present in the system.

(*) : Depending on countries, T0 accesses have a permanent or non permanent level 1. In case 2, if a
T0 board (with access to a permanent level 1) is present in the main module and a T2 access is present
in the add-on module, the system will take the clock provided by the T0 if the highest priority has been
assigned to the T0. Reminder: 0 = highest priority, 254 = lowest priority.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


CLOCK SYNCHRONISATION CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

SYNCHRONIZATION IN NETWORKS

To avoid loopbacks in the synchronization paths, you need to define a hierarchy of network nodes.

DEFINITIONS

- Pilot node (= level 1): node with the most interfaces to the public network; preferably a T2.
- Level 2: node with at least one synchronizing link coming from a pilot node.
- Level 3: other nodes.

PRIORITY NUMBERS

To be able to modify and enlarge a network, you should construct a tree diagram for the synchroni-
zation of each node in the network.

A priority number must be assigned (P) to each node.

For the clock priority settings for the ISDN/QSIG boards to be taken into account, the system requires
a warm reset.

Nota : A "Non synchronising" access (PM5 -> External lines -> Digital access details -> field "syn-
chronising clock" not validated) means that the access receives the system clock and trans-
mits it to the remote equipment.

CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS CLOCK SYNCHRONISATION

Principles which must be respected:

- to avoid 2 nodes from the same level synchronizing each other, assign priority 255 to the links
between the 2 nodes on the system (synchronizing) side and a smaller priority value on the slave
(synchronized) side.
- a node can only be enslaved on another node having an identical or lower hierarchic level.
- for any given node, assign a single priority number to links of the same type (T2, T0, leased lines).
- for any given node, a T2 link must always be assigned a smaller priority number than a T0 link.

Synchronization of the QSIG on PCX B has priority over the synchronization of the T0 on PCX B:

- a subscriber belonging to A is in an external communication (simultaneously or not with subscribers

- no external communication in A: A operates on the local clock.
A subscriber belonging to B makes an external call: B remains synchronised on A and is therefore
not synchronous on the public network -> no data transmission from B to the network.

Synchronization of the T0 of PCX B has priority over the synchronization of the QSIG:

- a subscriber belonging to B is in an external communication (simultaneously or not with the subs-


cribers on A) -> no problem.
- a subscriber belonging to B is in an external communication: A operates on the local clock -> no
data transmission between B and A via the QSIG link.
- no external communication in A or B: A and B operate on their local clocks -> no data transmission
between B and A via the QSIG link.

BASIC ACCESSES CONFIGURATION
6

From R2.0 version, digital accesses of BRA boards can be configured in T0 (with EDSS1 protocol on
public lines) or DLT0 (with Q-SIG protocol on transparent private lines or public lines).

Nota : Digital accesses of MIX boards cannot be configured in DLT0.

All the accesses of the same DLT2/DLT0 board (digital leased lines) can be used to connect
several PCXs as long as they are all masters or slaves.

The German ISDN network provides a particular S0-FV (S0-FestVerbindung) access (similar
to using a DLT0 access) to establish private connections between 2 PCX: levels 1 and 2 are
managed as BRA accesses (the PCX is always in User mode) while the protocol is managed
at level 3.

INITIALISATION

T0
- Number of B-channels: 2 bi-directional, 0 incoming, 0 outgoing ; cannot be modified
- Protocol :EDSS1 ; may be modified in QSIG to create a DLT0 basic access on a BRA board or a
S0-FV access on a MIX board of the German market.
- Layer 1 / Layer 2 Mode: User (TE); cannot be modified while Protocol = EDSS1.
- Synchronisation priority: 10 ; modifiable
- TEI Management: Point-to-point ; fixed TEI = 0 ; modifiable
- Network type: Public ; modifiable.

DLT0
Initialisation in DLT0 mode occurs when TO (EDSS1) accesses switch to DLT0 (QSIG) via PM5.

- Default number of B-channels: 1 bi-directional, 0 incoming, 0 outgoing


- Protocol: QSIG; may be modified in EDSS1 to redefine a T0 basic access on a BRA board.
- Layer 1 / Layer 2 Mode: User (TE); modifiable in network (NT).
- Synchronisation priority: 210 ; modifiable
- TEI Management: Point-to-point ; fixed TEI = 0 ; modifiable
- Network type: Private; modifiable.

Nota : When access is configured in network, synchronisation parameters are no longer modifia-
ble. Access is synchronised by its system and transmits the clock to the remote system.

All configurations are carried out by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): External lines -> External Access Ta-
ble -> Digital Access: Details

BASIC ACCESSES CONFIGURATION CALL SERVER : PRIVATE NETWORKS

Conversion of a T0 access into a DLT0 access


When booted up, all accesses by BRA boards are configured as T0 accesses. Conversion of a T0 access
into a DLT0 access is carried out by PM5 (see screen below) in modifying the following parameters for
each access:

- Protocol = QSIG
- Layer 1 / Layer 2 Mode = User (default value if the QSIG protocol is used) or Network.

This change results in the following parameters:

- Synchronising clock: Yes if User, or No (in grey) if Network.


- If User: Yes
- If Network: No (in grey)
- Synchronisation priority:
- If User: 210
- If Network: No (in grey)
- B-channels specialisation:
- If User: Allocation = Descending; Collision = Slave
- If Network: Allocation = Ascending; Collision = Master
- Number of B-channels: 1
- Public Network: No (in grey)
- TEI Management: Point-to-point (in grey)
- Automatic TEI negotiation: Non (in grey)
- Fixed TEI: 0 (in grey)

In User, validation (OK key) only relates to the selected access while in Network, validation also relates
to the associated access.

Conversion of a DLT0 access into a T0 access


The return of a DLT0 access to a T0 access is carried out by PM5 (same screen as before) in modifying
the following parameters:

- Protocol = EDSS1
- Layer 1 / Layer 2 Mode = User (in grey).

This change results in the following parameters:

- Synchronising clock: Yes.


- Synchronisation priority: 10
- B-channels specialisation: Allocation = Ascending; Collision = Master (in grey)
- Number of B-channels: 2
- Public network: Yes
- TEI Management: Point-to-point
- Automatic TEI Negotiation: No
- Fixed TEI: 0

Nota : Some modifications require a warm reset (must be performed at the PM5 prompt).

HOTEL INSTALLATION

When the system is brought into service, the PM5 Easy View session allows you to specify that the ins-
tallation is a hotel installation. By doing this, the system automatically creates predefined profiles (Re-
ception set, phone booth, room sets, administration sets, etc) described below:

- the first set is the Operator Station; this 4034/Advanced set in PCX mode belongs to all active ope-
rator groups as well as the default operator group.
This set has the profile of a Reception set: it has a direct call key for the booth station and, on the
add-on-modules, a direct call key for each room set in the installation (up to 80 sets).
- the Reflexes sets are administration sets.
- the Z sets (except fax machines and booths) are room sets.
- dynamic routing level 1 for administration sets: any unanswered call is routed to the voice mail unit
after 12 seconds.
- dynamic routing level 2 for administration sets: any unanswered external call is routed to the ope-
rator group after 24 seconds; for room sets, this mechanism only applies after customer check-in.
- OS calls overflow to general level (default operator group) after 24 seconds; for room sets, this
mechanism only applies after customer check-in.
- the first Z interface is configured to connect a fax machine (VOICE and FAX2/3 services; no dyna-
mic routing; protection against camp-on, intrusion and camp-on tone).
- the second Z interface is configured to connect a booth station (automatic call setup on going off-
hook, delayed by 3 seconds, meter total recall at the operator station).
- the internal numbering plan is programmed with the prefixes for "room status," "room service" and
"wake-up programming".
- the public numbering plan (if the public numbering system is "open") contains 2 ranges of DDI
numbers: one for the OS, the other for the administration sets, the booth and the Z interface of the
fax machine; the DDI numbers correspond to the internal call numbers of the sets.
The remaining ranges can be used for the room sets.
- the table of features in conversation is programmed with the default codes for the features "DND
override", "trunk allot" and "meter total recall".
- all the programmable keys on Easy, Premium and Advanced sets are modifiable by the user (or by
the installer).

Using the pre-defined profiles of the PM5 Easy View session means you can avoid some of the system
programming described in the "Configuration" section.

See the "Starting Up" section of the installation manual for a description of the PM5 Easy View session;
this session also enables you to configure some of the key Hotel application parameters (the DDI num-
bers, for example) right from the initialization stage.

Notas :

The Hotel application also allows you to program the VAT.


- To program the VAT rate:
- by MMC-Station: Meter -> Param1 -> VAT
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Administration -> Hotel -> Metering -> Value Added Tax

Default value: depends on the country

Visit: cost of the guest communication without VAT

First, the "Visit" feature enables the system to calculate the cost of communications (without VAT) made
from the "Guest" or "Booth" sets in the installation.

Three basic metering and two cost thresholds can be programmed.

- To enter the first, second and third basic metering values:


- by MMC-Station: Meter -> Visit -> Cost -> assign a value (integers then decimals) to Cost1 ,
Cost2 and Cost3
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous -> Hotel -> Metering -> assign a value
(integers then decimals) to Charge Rate 1 , Charge Rate 2 and Charge Rate 3

- To enter the first and second thresholds used for the 2nd and 3rd basic metering values:
- by MMC-Station: Meter -> Visit -> UnitTh -> assign a value (in minutes) to Unit1T and Unit2T
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous -> Hotel -> Metering -> assign a value
(in minutes) to Threshold 1 and Threshold 2

With the "Visit" feature you can now assign a surcharge to communications set up by the operator and
transferred to "Guest" and "Phonebooth" sets.

- To enter the surcharge:


- by MMC-Station: Meter -> Visit -> Cost -> assign a value (integers then decimals) to Ovload
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous -> Hotel -> Metering -> assign a value
(integers then decimals) to Additional Services

Finally, the "Visit" feature allows you to cut off the active (metered) communication and prohibit other
communications when a guest's overall communication cost reaches the prepayment total.

- To cut off the active communication:

to activate the mechanism in Beep
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): System Miscellaneous -> Hotel -> Metering -> select Cut if pre-
payment consumed to activate the mechanism, select a value (number of pulses) in Beep at
credit threshold

Using the feature:

The system converts the guest's prepayment total into meter pulses (metering credit). When the mete-
ring credit reaches the value programmed in "Beep ", the system transmits a sound signal (succession
of beeps) to the guest, for each pulse received.

When the metering credit is exhausted, the communication is cut off.

Default value:

- COST1, COST2 and COST3 = 0


- THRESHOLD1 and THRESHOLD2 = 0
- OVERLOAD = 0
- BEEP THRESHOLD = 0 (no communication cut off)

PRINTING THE GUEST'S TICKET AUTOMATICALLY

The automatic print of the "Guest Information Ticket" after the guest has checked in or the "Guest Glo-
bal Bill Ticket" after check-out can be deleted.

- Inhibiting the automatic print mechanism:


- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Admin -> Hotel -> Parameters -> deselect Print Check-In/

INTRODUCTION

Alcatel OmniPCX Office is a voice/data convergence product intended for small and medium-sized
enterprises. Alcatel OmniPCX Office can be administered locally or remotely and can be integrated
into any LAN on a single site or a multiple site.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office is an all-in-one solution that offers a shared and secure Internet access, built-
in remote access applications, e-mail service as well as access security and control.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office allow you to manage the following elements:

- the LAN,

- client terminals (PC) that can be used to access Internet resources,

- the remote client stations that can access the LAN via a VPN or RAS.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office has a complete website to install and manage Internet access. It integrates a
TCP/IP environment. The range of services proposed for are configured by means of an Internet na-
vigator (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator...).

The administration tools and the integrated software programs are used to configure the network pa-
rameters (IP addresses, masks, domain names and DNS, routing tables...) corresponding to the ins-
talled hardware.

This section deals successively with the environment, the hardware and the Internet services.

ENVIRONMENT

With Alcatel OmniPCX Office, several computers can be connected to the company's LAN and access
Internet services and applications through a shared Internet connection. The proposed Internet services
are available even if Internet access is not established through Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

Internet access via Alcatel OmniPCX Office


Alcatel OmniPCX Office is used to connect to the Internet by four types of access.

- ISDN
- DSL modem
- Cable Modem
- External router

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


GENERAL DESCRIPTION E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

ISDN Access

The ISDN functionality provides shared Internet access (T0 or T2) that is limited to two B channels. Con-
nection is usually by "call on demand", but can also be "permanent". The authorised bandwidth varies
between 64 Kbps and 128 Kbps.

DSL modem access

The DSL modem functionality allows connection of Alcatel OmniPCX Office to Internet via an external
DSL modem connected to the system by means of the WAN interface (second Ethernet interface of the
CPUe-1/CPUe-2 boards). The connection is "permanent" or "on demand": The authorised bandwidth
is between 64 Kbps and 2 Mbps.

Cable Modem access

The Cable Modem functionality allows connection of Alcatel OmniPCX Office to Internet via a cable
modem connected to the system by means of the WAN interface (second Ethernet interface of the
CPUe-1/CPUe-2 boards). The connection is "permanent" or "on demand": The authorized bandwidth
varies according to the IAP.

External router access

The External Router functionality uses an external router to manage the connection to the Internet. The
router is connected to Alcatel OmniPCX Office via the WAN interface (second Ethernet interface of the
CPUe-1/CPUe-2 boards). The Internet connection can be any type, e.g. ISDN, ADSL modem, cable
modem or leased line. The authorised bandwidth is between 64 Kbps and 10 Mbps.

Nota : for the description of the Alcatel OmniPCX Office sub-systems, refer to the "Hardware" sec-
tion.

Indirect Internet access

LAN server

In "LAN Server" functioning, Alcatel OmniPCX Office does not offer Internet access. When connected

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS GENERAL DESCRIPTION

to the company LAN, the LAN server offers all the services available on Alcatel OmniPCX Office, with
the exception of the firewall. Internet access is achieved through another interface.

Remarque : the configuration description can be found in the "Internet Access" file.

HARDWARE

The necessary hardware on Alcatel OmniPCX Office is:

- a CPUe-1 or CPUe-2 board.


- an ISDN T0 or T2 connection or IP connection (WAN daughter board).
- a client station connected to the LAN;
- a LAN switch (LANX8, LAN X16 or external switch).

The items required on the client terminal are:

- the latest release of the PM5 software for the administrator.


- an Internet browser: Internet Explorer (release 6 or later), Netscape Navigator (release 7 or la-
ter) or Mozilla (release 1.1 or later).

SERVICES

The services available with Alcatel OmniPCX Office Internet access depend on the hardware and
software keys purchased.

The following services are available:

- Internet Access: the system offers several possibilities for connecting to the Internet Service Provi-
der (ISP):

- Connection on demand: connection to the ISP is established on the basis of user demand (In-
ternet access, sending e-mails, etc.) and cut off when there is no more traffic. The bitrate options
are: static (64 Kbps, 128 Kbps) or dynamic (bandwidth on demand from 64 to 128 Kbps) in
the case of ISDN. For ADSL, the bitrates are different and vary according to the IAP.
- Connection on demand with callback: the IAP sends a signal to Alcatel OmniPCX Office that
establishes the connection by return. This mechanism is validated using the ISDN caller ID: only
authorized caller numbers can be called back. This type of connection must be used when im-
plementing VPN services on an ISDN link (see the "VPN" section for more details).

- Always-on connection: a permanent link to the ISP.

The authentication protocols used are PAP/CHAP (ISDN and DSL Modem/Cable Modem). In the
case of the External Router, if Alcatel OmniPCX Office does not communicate directly with the IAP.

- Connection protocol:

- ISDN: MPPP, PPP


- DSL modem: PPTP or PPPoE or IP over Ethernet
- Cable Modem: PPTP or PPPoE or IP over Ethernet

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/4


GENERAL DESCRIPTION E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

- External router: OmniPCX Office communicates with the IAP via the external router. The proto-
col used depends on the external router.

- LAN Functions: DNS server and DHCP integrated, as well as the routing table.

- NAT: address translation is used to internally store private IP addresses and to use only one public
address.

- Protection by integrated firewall: the integrated packet filtering and IP address translation func-
tions offer protection to the LAN against the Internet.

- Antivirus: the anti-virus software protects the electronic messaging as well as the HTTP and FTP
flows. This software is hosted on a server connected to the same LAN as Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

- Access control: Alcatel OmniPCX Office offers control solutions for user access by integrated
proxy. In addition to controlling web access, it generates the associated statistics (users, protocols,
URLs, etc).

- Integrated cache: this function speeds up Internet requests, thereby reducing the cost of access to
the telephone network.

- E-mail server: enables users to have a personal e-mail address within the company. You can
create as many e-mail accounts as required, within the limits of the system itself, while optimizing
the corresponding Internet traffic. Depending on the IAP, the e-mail reception protocols are as fol-
lows:

- SMTP

- POP3

- VPN: this solution authorizes secure connections to the LAN via the Internet infrastructure. This
means distant users can benefit from all the resources on the LAN. Each VPN can manage accom-
modate several remote sites. The existing possibilities are:

- Remote access to the LAN via Internet ("Client to LAN" configuration, PPTP protocol and IPsec)

- Access between two LAN ("LAN to LAN" configuration, IPSec protocol)

- Dynamic DNS: it enables the automatic update of a domain name and a machine name when
the IAP assigns a new IP Address. This service is in particular used in the event of a permanent con-
nection (DSL Modem), to connect a remote worker to a machine with a dynamic IP Address. The
update of the association table Domain Name/IP Address is handled by an ASP.

Alcatel does not provide the list of supported ASP's. The client must contact the installer to use this
functionality.

- Web Communication Assistant: a Web application designed for Alcatel OmniPCX Office end
users to help them manage in-house corporate communication (e-mails and voice messages).

All these services are configured via a secure Web interface; Web-based Management (WBM). For
more information about WBM, refer to the "Web Based Management" section.

WEB-BASED MANAGEMENT
2

Web-Based Management (WBM) is an Alcatel OmniPCX Office Internet service administration tool.

The WBM operates with Internet Explorer (release 6 or later), Netscape Navigator (release 7 or later)
or Mozilla (release 1.1 or later). It uses a secure Web interface. The secure transfer protocol, HTTPS,
ensures the identification of the transmitter and the receiver, the integrity and the privacy of the exchan-
ged data.

WBM can be used directly via the LAN, or remotely from the WAN if this option is enabled.

WBM is an intuitive interface which simplifies navigation of the product functions. Depending on the
selected software keys, one of the following two menus is available:

- a reduced menu. This menu is available when only the RAS software key has been chosen.

- a complete menu. This menu gives access to all the Alcatel OmniPCX Office Internet services.

This section deals successively with the administration levels, the presentation of the interface and con-
necting to WBM.

ADMINISTRATION LEVELS

The WBM has two administration levels:

1. Administrator level

USERS AND USER GROUPS
3

The concepts of users, user groups and associated configurations will be treated in sequence in this
section.

WHAT IS A USER?

In Alcatel OmniPCX Office, a user is defined by a username and its associated password. The userna-
me and password are the user's ID card, which will be asked for in the following circumstances:

- By the e-mail server, in order to enable the user to collect mail from his local mailbox;

- By the proxy, if configured to require authentication (see Proxy chapter), in order to clear the user
for Internet access;

- By the PPTP server, if the user wants to access the local network via the Internet (see VPN chapter);

- For the VPN IPsec clients PPTP and IPsec on L2TP access.

- For access to the file server.

- For Intranet publication (web server).

- To access the WBM configuration tool.

- To use the Web Communication Assistant.

WHAT IS A USER GROUP?

In Alcatel OmniPCX Office, each user is associated to a group. A profile is defined for each group. A
profile is a set of privileges attributed to a group of users. The administrator may modify privileges at
any time.

There is no limit to the number of groups that an administrator can create. However, in order to sim-
plify the configuration and optimize the time, the following groups are predefined:

- administrators,
- operators,
- remote workers,
- unlimited accesses,
- professional accesses,
- free time accesses,
- without Web access.

SUBSCRIPTION TO A ISP

The essential information


A subscription with an ISP is necessary to access the Internet. After you have subscribed, the ISP sends
you back essential information for installing you Internet access. This information must be entered
when configuring Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

The information required to install the Internet access varies according to the type of connection to be

Description
All this information is described below.

- Connection account

This account is used when identifying the connection to the ISP. This account is unique, and enable
users to authenticate on connection to the access provider by entering the account name and as-
sociated password (except for External Router and LAN Server connections).

- "User name": account issued by the access provider. This account is used in the PAP/CHAP
authentication process on connection to the ISP. This account, a form of security used by the
access provider, must be entered only once in Alcatel OmniPCX Office. It must not be confused
with the user identifier and password: these are entered in the browser when requesting access
to the Web, and enable verification of the number of users with access to Internet resources.
There are two levels of authentication:

- authentication (client station) managed by Alcatel OmniPCX Office for each Internet user in
the company.

2/12 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS INTERNET ACCESS

- authentication (Alcatel OmniPCX Office) managed by the access provider. Internet access
is shared by all the users; This process is unique and transparent for all users.

- "Password": password associated with the connection's user name.

- Access provider's telephone number

- "Telephone number": the telephone number dialed for connection to the ISP.

- "Emergency phone number": may or may not exist, depending on the chosen access provider.
This number is used when the main number is unavailable.

- Bandwidth

The allocated bandwidth corresponds to the throughput between Alcatel OmniPCX Office and the
access provider for an ISDN type connection. The larger the bandwidth, the faster the data trans-
mission (and the greater the connection costs). Three choices are possible in the number of B chan-
nels used:

- "1 64 Kbps B channel": the connection uses a single B-channel (static mode).
- "2 128 Kbps B channels": uses two B-channels statically. This doubles the connection cost.

- "on demand (64-128 Kbits/s)": uses two B-channels dynamically. The charge rates are identical
to those for the 128 Kbps mode, but the traffic is optimized as a function of bandwidth requi-
rement. The bitrate at the ISP must correspond to 128 Kbps access. This option cannot therefore
be chosen if the connection to the access provider is set at 64 Kbps.

- Type de connection

The type of link between Alcatel OmniPCX Office and the access supplier can be established with:

- "On demand call": the channel or channels are called up in response to user demand and auto-
matically timed out when there is no more traffic. This type of connection avoids unnecessary
charges when there is no traffic.
- "Permanent": the connection between the IAP and Alcatel OmniPCX Office is permanent, it is
like using a leased line from the telephone operator.

- "Callback": this option is chosen when a client terminal outside the LAN wishes to access Alcatel
OmniPCX Office via Internet (See Section VPN). It allows Alcatel OmniPCX Office to dial auto-
matically the call number of the ISP in order to establish connection.

- IP address allocation

The IP address is allocated to Alcatel OmniPCX Office by the access provider. This address is public.
If the access provider manages the IP address negotiation, the "dynamic" option must be checked,
otherwise enter the assigned IP address. A fixed IP address is needed for always-on connections
and VPN use.

- DNS servers

This information corresponds to the IP addresses of the DNS servers on the premises of the access
provider. These servers are used to translate site names into IP addresses.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/12


INTERNET ACCESS E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

- "Address of primary DNS server".".

- "Address of secondary DNS server".

- Connection protocol

This information is provided by the ISP for a DSL modem/Cable Modem type connection. In this
case, a point-to-point connection is established between OmniPCX Office and the DSL modem/
Cable Modem. Two types of communication protocols are available to manage this connection.

- PPPoE: this protocol is used to send PPP packets over Ethernet. This protocol allows "permanent"
or "on-demand call" type connections.
- PPTP: this protocol consists of establishing an IP tunnel between Alcatel OmniPCX Office and
the modem. This protocol allows only "permanent" connections.

- IP over Ethernet: this protocol is used to send IP packets over Ethernet. It allows only "permanent"
connections.

- Connection properties

To define the connection parameters, the ISP gives the following elements:

- "WAN interface IP address": this is the IP address of the WAN interface. This parameter must be
consistent with the IP address of the router, the DSL Modem or the Cable Modem.
- "DSL modem/Cable modem address" or "Router address": this is the IP address of the Router,
the DSL Modem or the Cable Modem

- "Network mask": parameter determining the range of the network.

CONFIGURATION OF AN INTERNET CONNECTION

There are several ways to configure an Internet connection:

• creation of an ISDN type connection,

• creation of a DSL modem type connection,

• creation of a Cable Modem type connection,

• creation of an External Router connection,

• creation of LAN Server connection,

as the active Internet connection.

SELECTING THE ACTIVE PROFILE


1. In the Selecting the Active Connection Profile area, select the active profile in the Active Profile
drop-down list.

2. To activate the selected profile, click Apply.

3. In order to test the connection corresponding to the active profile, click Test. You access the test
screen described in the "Test the Connection" section.

ADDING A CONNECTION PROFILE


In the Connection Profiles' List area, click Add. You access the first Connection assistant screen.

DELETING ONE OR SEVERAL CONNECTION PROFILES


You can only delete an inactive connection profile.

Deleting a connection profile

In the Connection Profiles' List area, click on the Delete hypertext link corresponding to the the pro-
file you wish to delete.

Deleting several connection profiles

1. In the Connection Profiles' List area, select the profiles by checking the box next to the profile
name.

2. Click Delete the selection.

REFINING THE ACTIVE PROFILE PARAMETERS


1. In the Connection Profiles' List area, click the profile name you wish to modify. The Connection
Settings window is displayed.

Remarque : Depending on the selected connection (ISDN, DSL Modem, External Router or LAN
Server), the tabs may be different. However, you still have access to tabs relating to pro-
file, connection type, connection authentication, DNS and service quality (QoS).

2. Click on the Profile tab. This tab allows verifying or modifying the profile's characteristics.

3. Depending on the selected connection type, click the DSL or ISDN or External Router or LAN
Server tab. This tab allows modifying the connection's characteristics.

5. Click the IP/DNS tab. This tab allows modifying the DNS and the IP addresses' allocation charac-
teristics.

6. Click the QoS tab. This feature allows you to activate or deactivate the Quality of Service (QoS)
feature. By enabling this feature, you give priority to voice traffic on IP. The mechanism used is
based on the principles given in the Diffserv standard. The system is based on a particular value
of the "Type de service" field of the IP header of VoIP packets, which must be different from the value
of the "best effort" field so that the QoS takes it into account. For further information refer to the
on-line help. There are three possibilities:

- Click No QoS if you do not wish to enable this function.


- Click QoS with predefined bandwidth and select the value of the bandwidth of the Internet
access from the dropdown menu.

TESTING THE CONNECTION


Click Connection Test in the general information banner or the Test button in the Selecting the Ac-
tive Connection Profile area. The connection test runs all the stages involved in connecting to an ISP,
and gives the causes and related solutions to solve the problem if the connection fails. The following
tests are run in sequence:

- Initial state test: the system checks that the active ISP is in "Enabled" mode and that the connection
can be established in the set time ranges.

- Call to the ISP's telephone number, or ping to the DSL modem, the Cable Modem and the Router.

- Authentication check: the system tests the authentication of the login and password in accordance
with the protocol supported by the ISP (PAP/CHAP). This verification is performed during a connec-
tion using ISDN or DSL modem.

- IP address negotiation: the system sends back the IP addresses of Alcatel OmniPCX Office, and of
the router on the IAP's premises. This negotiation is tested during a connection using ISDN, DSL
Modem and Cable Modem type connection.

- Testing the remote address by pinging the ISP's router. This checks that the router is working pro-
perly.

- DNS configuration check: this test is used to verify that the DNS configuration entered in the system
is correct and, if not, it is used to dynamically locate the DNS servers present on the IAP's premises.

- Resolution of the IP address for the URL "www.ietf.org": checks that DNS resolution is working cor-
rectly.

- DNS ping: this test is carried out if DNS resolution isn't working. It ascertains whether the problem
is due to an incorrect IP address or to the DNS service itself.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 11/12

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS INTRANET

File
Intranet

An Intranet is a set of Internet services internal to a local network, i.e. accessible only from a local
network's station and hidden from the outside.

Integration of Alcatel OmniPCX Office in the LAN requires the following functions :

- management of domain names (DNS server),

- dynamic management of IP addresses (DHCP server).

Alcatel OmniPCX Office provides two services to the LAN users :

- Make accessible and publish Web pages (Web server).

- Share files between users (file server).

What follows is a general description of how these services and functions work, before dealing with
their configuration in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

INTEGRATION FUNCTIONS

The internal network of a company, or LAN, comprises various elements such as servers, clients sta-
tions, routers, etc. To be effectively integrated into a LAN, these devices are subject to integration rules
that govern the definition of an IP address plan, the adoption of domain names and naming conven-
tions, etc.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office provides features that facilitate integration into a LAN, whatever topology it
may present. These features correspond to name management (DNS) and dynamic management of
IP addresses (DHCP server) services.

DHCP server
This server enables an IP address to be allocated dynamically on the LAN.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/10


INTRANET E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

OmniPCX
(integrated DHCP server)

Router

DHCP clients

There are two types of IP address:

- public addresses: these addresses are unique on the Internet.

- private addresses: these addresses are assigned in a LAN, recognised in the LAN, but not routed
on Internet.

Using private addresses in a LAN allows total freedom of choice in allocating addresses. A host name
can have a fixed IP address, or it can be assigned one dynamically by a DHCP server each time it con-
nects to the LAN. There are several stages in the LAN connection process (see diagram above):

1. the DHCP client connects up to the LAN, and requests an IP address allocation. This request is
made by sending out ("broadcasting") a DHCP request over the LAN.

2. the DHCP server on the LAN receives the request and allocates an available IP address from the
pre-defined range of addresses;

3. the allocated IP address is sent to the DHCP client;

4. the DHCP client accepts the IP address.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office provides DHCP server functionalities. The following parameters can be con-
figured:

- The value range of IP addresses that the DHCP can allocate. These IP addresses are allocated for
the network's computers and VoIP stations.

- The lifespan or "lease" of a dynamically allocated IP address.

When integrating into a LAN, two types of situation are encountered:

2/10 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS INTRANET

- A DHCP server does not exist: if a DHCP server is required, an address plan must be defined
with a range of fixed addresses for the specific network elements (servers, printers, routers, etc.)
and a range of DHCP-attributable addresses for the client stations.

- A DHCP server already exists. In this case Alcatel OmniPCX Office requires no particular DHCP
configuration.

Remarque : LANs can accommodate more than one DHCP server, so long as their IP address ran-
ges don't overlap.

DNS server
DNS servers handle the correspondence between an IP address and the host name of a machine. DNS
servers perform two main functions:

- DNS caching for the resolution of names external to the LAN.

The cache is updated whenever DNS servers other than Alcatel OmniPCX Office resolve a DNS
request. This means that if an identical request is received, it can be resolved directly by Alcatel
OmniPCX Office without calling on the DNS servers at the ISP. The request is thus resolved faster,
with a corresponding reduction in communications costs. The Alcatel OmniPCX Office's DNS also
has a negative cache for saving name resolution failures. The lifespan of the information in the
cache is kept short so that the user can make a new attempt at resolving these names;

- Resolution of local host names with a fixed IP address on the LAN.

These names are resolved provided the elements have been entered in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

Resolving DNS requests from client stations involves several stages (see diagram):

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/10


INTRANET E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

DNS Servers

ISP DNS Servers

OmniPCX
(integrated DNS server)

- The client station emits a DNS request (Step 1).

- The host name - DNS server IP address correspondence table is consulted (Step 2). If the host name
is found, the DNS server sends the corresponding IP address back to the client station (Step 3). If
not, the request is relayed to the ISP's DNS servers (Step 4).

- The ISP's DNS servers are consulted. If the request is resolved, the servers send the corresponding
IP address back to the DNS server on the LAN (Step 6). The LAN DNS server updates the DNS cache
to take account of the request (Step 7), and proceeds from Step 3.

- If the request can't be resolved by the ISP's DNS servers, it is relayed to other DNSs on the Internet
(Step 8). At this stage, the request is continuously relayed until a DNS server manages to resolve
the host name (Step 9). The resolved IP address is then returned to the ISP's servers (Step 10), from
whence it follows the same route as before.

LAN SERVICES

Alcatel OmniPCX Office provides two services to LAN users: a Web server and a file server.

Web Server
With its integrated Web server, Alcatel OmniPCX Office provides Intranet Web server functionality on
the LAN. Only LAN elements have access to the Web server.

The two Intranet Web server functions are:

4/10 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS INTRANET

1. Allow access, for all LAN users, to the previously stored Web pages.

2. Publish, for the privileged users, static pages or pictures.

The Web pages comprise text files and picture files. To publish them, the Web pages text files must be
transferred to the appropriate directories or files on the Web server. Three protocols are used:

- FTP (File Transfer Protocol): this protocol is used to transfer text files.

- CIFS (Common Internet File System): if you use the Windows systems' network neighbourhood.

- WebDAV (Web-Based Distributed Authoring and Versioning). This is an extension of the HTTP pro-
tocol that allows users to edit and manage collaborative files on Web sites. WebDAV is an IETF
proposal for a standard (RFC 2518). Most Web sites' management tools are compatible with Web-
DAV. Under Windows, WebDAV is available through the "Web Folders". Contrary to FTP or CIFS,
WebDAV manages file locks in order to avoid publishing conflicts between users.

The usual publishing tools such as Microsoft Office Frontpage, Adobe Golive or Macromedia Dream-
weaver support these three protocols.

File server
A file server allows saving users' files on the local network and sharing them between users.

The main features of a file server include:

- centralized management of files,

- information sharing,

- private access to information from any LAN station.

The file server uses the CIFS protocol. With this protocol, a user is able to find one or several files on
the network and to read or edit them. Editing is possible only if the file is not already open by another
user.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

1. Connect the CPU card using an Ethernet cable:

- Either to an available RJ45 socket on the company LAN;

- Or to the internal switch in the Alcatel OmniPCX Office cabinet. This switch can then be con-
nected to another switch if Alcatel OmniPCX Office has several switches.

2. If necessary, change the default IP addresses (192.168.92.246 for CPUe-1) and the mask of the
sub-network to IP addresses that are compatible with the existing LAN (for more information, con-
tact the company's network and system administrator). The IP addresses of the different cards can
be accessed through the heading PM5 -> PCX Client -> Hardware and limits-> IP cards.

3. Internet access configuration:

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/10


INTRANET E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

- Either via the Internet navigator of a customer terminal connected to the LAN by entering the IP
address of the CPU Main or CoCPU@ card in the address bar.

- Or via the PM5 software, from the PM5 -> PCX Client -> Internet access configuration me-
nu.

CONFIGURING THE CLIENT STATION

To bring in the Alcatel OmniPCX Office's LAN services, you have to change the TCP/IP configuration
on the client stations. at two levels:

- reconfiguration as DHCP client.

This is only necessary where there was no DHCP server on the LAN beforehand and Alcatel Om-
niPCX Office is configured as a DHCP server. If the client station keeps a fixed IP address, then the
Alcatel OmniPCX Office's IP address must be entered as the default gateway.

- Insertion of the domain name and of the Alcatel OmniPCX Office's IP address as the DNS service.

Exemple : Configuring a Windows XP client station

1. In the control panel, click on the Network Connections icon.

2. Right-click on Local Network Connection .

OUTLINE

A virtual private network (VPN)is an extension to a private network incorporating one or more public
network links such as the Internet. These links conserve the characteristics of a private point-to-point
link by encapsulating data by means of tunneling protocols. Authentication methods are used to main-
tain the security of the private network. The confidentiality of the data carried by these links is guaran-
teed by ciphering methods. The idea behind VPNs is to offer companies exactly the same services as
a private link at far less cost by utilising a public infrastructure.

Alcatel OmniPCX offers two types of VPN:

- A remote-access VPN connection called "VPN Client to LAN"

- A router-to-router VPN connection called "VPN LAN to LAN"

Description
The remote user can connect up to the company LAN from fixed or mobile terminals. In this case, the
user logs on to the Internet via the nearest point of presence and requests the creation of a VPN tunnel
between his terminal and OmniPCX.

VPN Client

Server VPN Client

Security of exchanges is insured at several levels and by several functions, such as data ciphering,
authentication at both ends and monitoring of user access to resources.

For the creation and management of a tunnel, the client and the server must implement the same pro-
tocol. Three types of protocols are supported by Alcatel OmniPCX Office:

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/22

- The L2TP protocol (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol). It is also a data link layer protocol on the OSI.

- The IPSec protocol (IP Security Protocol). It is an OSI model network layer protocol. This protocol
provides, between the client and the server (IKE), key exchange, IP packets ciphering (ESP) and data
authentication (AH and ESP) services.

When the VPN client issues a connection request, the authentication protocol, client IP address and
data ciphering method can all be negotiated with the VPN server (depending on the protocol used).

The different types of VPN client


The remote user is termed the "VPN client" and OmniPCX the "VPN server". In all cases, the user must
belong to the "Teleworkers" group or a group with "remote rights". Three types of clients are supported
by Alcatel OmniPCX Office:

- the PPTP client,

- The Microsoft IPSec client (L2TP on IPSec),

- the IPSec client.

PPTP client

The PPTP client uses the PPTP protocol to establish a VPN to its company. In this configuration, it seems
that the client belongs to the LAN.

- Authentication

The protocol proposed by Alcatel OmniPCX Office is MS-CHAP (Microsoft Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol) version 2. Unless the client can provide this type of authentication, con-
nection is refused.

- Client IP address

The IPCP (Internet Protocol Control Protocol) negotiation process with the VPN server allocates an
intranet IP address to the client. This address is preconfigured on Alcatel OmniPCX Office (refer to
the "Configuration" section).

- Ciphering of data

The data ciphering method used by OmniPCX is MPPE (Microsoft Point to Point Encryption) with
continuous RSA RC4 encoding and 40-bit or 128-bit ciphering keys. Connection attempts will be
rejected if the client cannot use these methods.

- Data tunneling

After data ciphering, a PPP header is added to create the PPP frame. The latter is then encapsulated
with a modified GRE header (Generic Routing Encapsulation RFC 1701 and 1702). The resulting
frame is itself encapsulated with an IP header.

Microsoft IPSec client

The Microsoft IPSec client is integrated in Windows from the XP release. For the 98, NT and Millennium
releases, the client can be downloaded from the Microsoft site. This approach makes it possible to se-
cure client/gateway remote access on the Internet by means of:

- the L2TP protocol for data tunneling,

- IPSec which guarantees confidentiality and data integrity by encrypting traffic.

The services provided by L2TP are user authentication and assignment of IP addresses to the client.
Since this protocol is based on the PPP protocol, authentication (up to user level) is ensured by the MS-
CHAP protocol (Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) and the client's IP addressing
by the IPCP protocol (Internet Protocol Control Protocol).

IPSec provides data integrity, data origin authentication and confidentiality services as defined in the
"Other IPSec client" section.

Other IPsec client

"Other IPSec client" refers to any client using IPSec for data tunneling and data ciphering. This gives
the tunnel a very high level of security.

The security services are:

• data integrity
• data origin authentication
• confidentiality

The IPsec standard defines two extensions to the IP protocol to provide these services: AH (Authentica-
tion Header) for data integrity and authentication, and ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload) for data
integrity and authentication and confidentiality.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office only supports ESP. Data confidentiality is provided by the ciphering algorithms
DES, 3DES and AES. Data authentication and integrity use the algorithms HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-
SHA-1.

When the IPsec connection is established, the machines authenticate each other thanks to:

- the Pre-Shared secret key(PSK) method

- the public keys method. Using PKI (Public Key Infrastructure), public keys management system, ma-
kes the administrator's task easier (for more information, see the PKI section)

In certain cases, it is preferable to also perform an authentication of the user. To do this, Alcatel Om-
niPCX Office supports the extended authentication method (Xauth). The user must then enter his/her
user name and password.

VPN E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

VPN LAN to LAN

Description
The idea behind a LAN VPN-to-LAN is to provide a secure connection between two remote sites while
using a shared or public infrastructure. It utilizes a router-to-router connection on which all packets are
encrypted and secured using negotiated methods.

Internet

I SP I P

VPN - Gateway VPN VPN - Gateway

The tunneling protocol used by Alcatel OmniPCX Office is IPSec (Internet Protocol Security, RFC 2401
2402 2406). This is a network layer protocol based on the OSI model (Open Systems Interconnection),
whose principle consists in encrypting the IP packets and then encapsulating them in an additional IP
header before sending them to an IP network.

In the case of a VPN LAN to LAN, security services offered by IPSec are the same as those presented
in the "VPN Client to LAN" section. It is important to note that Alcatel OmniPCX Office allows:

- to secure either the whole LAN or part of the LAN,

- to manually configure security profiles according to the remote entity to insure a better interopera-
bility.

SECURITY PROFILES

For all VPN connections using IPsec, the IKE protocol (Internet Key Exchange) is used to negotiate se-
curity settings, authenticate the systems and compute the data integrity and authentication keys.

The IKE protocol involves two negotiation phases that establish two Security Associations (SA). One SA
groups all the security parameters (algorithms, keys, IP addresses) protecting a given connection (for
more information, see the "Interoperability with other IPSec gateways" section). For each SA, the IKE
protocol allows a system to send several propositions to the remote entity. These proposals are com-
binations of the ciphering, hashing and key computation algorithms.

There are then two possible cases:

4/22 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File
6

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS VPN

- the remote entity selects the first proposition that meets its criteria and the connection is established,

- no proposition is selected and the negotiation fails.

The list of propositions for both SA (ISAKMP and IPSEC SA) is stored in the user-configured security
profiles.

When configuring a VPN LAN to LAN, the administrator selects the security profile to use.

The Microsoft L2TP/IPsec clients and other IPsec clients must use the predefined profile, called "IPsec
client".

Remarque : Alcatel OmniPCX Office implements the "traversal NAT" function, which makes it possi-
ble to establish IPsec VPN's via devices that modify the systems' IP addresses. This func-
tion does not require any configuration. Detection of the NAT and negotiation of use of
this mechanism are performed automatically during establishment of the connection.

PKI MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

PKIs (Public Key Infrastructure) are a public key management system used to manage important lists
of public keys and to ensure their reliability. A PKI infrastructure provides the following services:

• manufacturing of public keys,


• certification of public keys and publication of digital certificates,
• revocation of certificates,
• management of the certification function.

CERTIFICATE
On administrator demand, the certification authority issues a digital certificate associating a public key
with the identity of a user or a system. The public key on the certificate corresponds to a confidential
private key, known only to the holder of the certificate. The data encrypted with the private key can only
be decrypted by the corresponding public key, and vice-versa. This makes it possible to provide the
electronic signature service used for VPN authentication.

Certificates must be obtained during system configuration. The VPN client and the VPN server request
certification from the same certification authority. The certificates are exchanged during the IKE nego-
tiation to allow the systems to verify the remote electronic signature. If this verification is successful,
establishment of the connection is authorized.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office supports two methods for obtaining a certificate:

- The "off-line" or manual method: the certificate request is stored in a PKCS#10 format file. The
administrator must submit this file to the certification authority. The certification string containing
the CA's certificate and the system's certificate must then be imported manually into Alcatel Omni-
PCX Office.

- The "on-line" or automatic method: the SCEP protocol (Simple Certificate Enrolment Protocol) is
used to submit the certificate request to the certification authority, and the certification string is re-
covered and automatically installed.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/22


VPN E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

Regardless of the method used, the key pair is automatically generated on the system before the cer-
tificate request is sent.

Since certificates are not renewed automatically, the administrator must request a certificate again be-
fore the current certificate's period of validity ends.

Remarque : The whole of the certification string must be imported into the system. It will not be pos-
sible to verify a certificate if the certificate of an intermediate authority or the certificate
of the root CA are not found.

The certificates and keys are stored on protected files and are therefore linked to a CPU.
If the board is changed, the certificate must be requested again.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office supports certificate revocation lists (CRL). They are regularly updated by the
certification authorities and contain the list of certificates that must not be accepted (e.g. because the
holder has left the company). These lists can be imported into the system manually or automatically,
and will be scanned when a VPN is established to verify the validity of the remote system's certificate.

PKI ACCESS CONTROL LISTS (ACL)

VPN access control lists (ACL) are used for certificate-based authentification. They allow the adminis-
trator to manage authorization of access to the VPN service. This is particularly necessary in cases of
a PKI where the certification authority is used to issue certificates for several different uses (for example,
VPN or protection of e-mail), or for several enterprises (PKI managed by a services supplier). This con-
trol is not however necessary when the certification authority issues certificates only within the scope of
the enterprise and for the VPN service. In this case, verifying the validity of the certificate is sufficient.

Access control is based on filters which are applied to the Identity field of the certificate presented by
the remote access. These filters can specify all or part of a distinctive name X.500, and can be used,
for example, to authorize access only for the personnel in the Marketing Department of enterprise ABC
located in France (ou=Marketing, o=ABC, c=fr).

ACL MANAGEMENT

ACL DEFINITION

attribute/value pairs, for example "o=EnterpriseName, c=fr". Access will be authorized if the
Identity field of the certificate of the remote system contains all the attribute/value pairs speci-
fied in one of the ACL filters.

Remarque : missing attributes can be added by listing them, and then clicking Add to confirm
them.

A complete identity does not have to be specified.

Exemple : the filter "o=EnterpriseName, c=fr" will authorize access to all the certificates issued
for EnterpriseName in France, for example, certificates of which the identity is
"cn=Jean Dupont, ou=Marketing, o=EnterpriseName, c=fr" or "cn=John Smith,
ou=Research, o=EnterpriseName, c=fr".

VPN ADMINISTRATION

VPN management comprises two main tasks:

- VPN clients administration, comprising:

- management of the PPTP client service,


- management of IPSec clients,
- remote access configuration.

- Tunnel administration, comprising:

- modifying a tunnel's properties,


- adding one or several tunnels,
- deleting one or several tunnels,
- testing a tunnel.

Attention : If the tunnel-initiating gateway is deemed to be the VPN client and the remote gateway
the VPN server, then the Internet connection (if used) on the server side must be a "Call-
back" or "Permanent" connection with a fixed IP address. No such restrictions apply on
the client side. However, if both sides happen to initiate the VPN tunnel, then the restric-
tion applies to them both.

In order to access the VPN/RAS Managementwindow, click VPN/RAS in the navigation bar. This
window comprises two areas:

- The Remote Worker Services area, with three hypertext links giving access to the VPN Client wi-
zard for creation of PPTP or IPSec clients.

INTEROPERABILITY WITH OTHER IPSEC GATEWAYS

IPsec Tunnel establishment phases


The IKE (Internet Key Exchange) protocol is used to establish secure IPsec connections. There are two
phases in the protocol.

IKE phase 1

Phase 1 purpose is to establish a bi-directional secure connection between the two IPsec gateways,
which is associated to an ISAKMP SA (Security Association). During this phase, the peers negotiate a
set of parameters to use for:

• making this connection secure (ciphering and hashing algorithms),


• creating keys,
• mutual authentication.

The standards define two modes for Phase 1, namely Main Mode and Aggressive Mode. In the case
of a VPN LAN to LAN, Alcatel OmniPCX Office only handles the principal mode sometimes called
ID PROTECT.

IKE phase 2

The Phase 1 secure channel is then used to negotiate security settings for a particular mechanism, e.g.
IPsec ESP in our case. This is the Phase 2 of IKE, and it allows establishing IPSEC SA, which will further
be used to convey data securely between the two LANs.

The mode used for IKE Phase 2 is always Quick Mode.

Interoperability troubleshooting
This section describes the points in the IKE negotiation where interoperability problems are likely to
arise. Information about the Alcatel OmniPCX Office features should help tuning the peer device's IP-
sec configuration and make the secure connection happen.

Foreword

The configuration of the IPsec VPN feature has been voluntary simplified on Alcatel OmniPCX Office
to feet the "Plug-and-Play" aspect and ease of configuration of product. Integration of pre-configured
security profiles usually avoids having to modify the negotiated parameters for SA establishing. Thus,
for a LAN to LAN connection between two Alcatel OmniPCX Office, it is enough to select the same
security profile to ensure inter-working. Equally, the pre-configured security profile for IPsec clients can
be used "as is" for interoperability with Microsoft IPsec clients.

Interoperability with other products must also be ensured, since Alcatel OmniPCX Office supports all
the IPSec functionalities defined as mandatory by IETF standards. When the default security profiles are
not suitable, configuration of one of the two systems to be interconnected will have to be modified. In
the case of the Alcatel system:

- in the case of a VPN LAN to LAN, it is always possible to create or to modify the security profiles in
order to adapt to a specific configuration of the remote gateway.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 19/22


VPN E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

- In the case of IPSec clients other than Microsoft clients, the "Ipsec client" security profile must be
edited in order to add the parameters required by the client.

SA settings negotiation

A security association gathers the settings that are used to secure a connection. They contain algo-
rithms, keys, peers addresses, etc ... As explained in the previous section, a SA negotiation is perfor-
med in each of the two IKE phases. They both follow the same negotiation scheme, explained
hereafter.

During negotiation, the initiator of the connection sends a list of proposals, i.e. a combination of SA
settings it can accept. The responder then selects an acceptable proposal, and tells the initiator about
this choice.

- Phase 2 SA settings

The same settings as in Phase 1 are negotiated, except the authentication method. The mechanism
used to protect traffic for the VPN is always ESP. Encapsulation is performed by tunnel mode,
except for the Microsoft IPSec client where the transport mode is used.

Important : AH is not used on Alcatel OmniPCX Office. It is possible to configure separate Diffie Hel-
man groups for Phase 1 and Phase 2, but it is highly recommended to set the same
group for both phases.

Peers identity checking

Before Phase 2 can begin, the peer devices must authenticate each other. For this purpose, they use
the method defined during the Phase 1 SA negotiation to compute some data that can be derived only
thanks to a secret (shared secret or digital signature if the certificates are used). This data is sent with
an identity payload that identifies the IPsec gateway.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office does not allow configuration of peer's identities, hence identities are always
the WAN IP addresses of the system in the case of an authentication by shared key (PSK), or the "dis-
tinguished name" in the case of an authentication by certificates.

When using the PSK method, it must be ensured that the remote system is configured to send its IP
address to identify itself (often referred as "local id" settings), and also uses an IP address to identify
the remote Alcatel OmniPCX Office system. Such a configuration is shown in the next figure.

There is also an identity payload exchange during Phase 2, but this one only refers to the subnets being
protected. Both parties send the IP settings of the subnets (both local and remote) that are going to be
protected by this tunnel. These settings must match on the two sides for the exchange to be valid.

Debugging tools
A VPN test tool for VPN LAN to LAN is available from the Alcatel OmniPCX Office web-based mana-
gement tool (WBM): VPN/RAS -> Site to Site VPN. This tool is used to detect the most common pro-
blems, by giving an indication on the possible origin of the failure and the associated solutions.

If the tunnel is established, the test gives information on the negotiated parameters, which are used to
protect the data. For example, ESP-3DES[168]-HMAC-MD5 for a tunnel using the ESP protocol, 3DES
ciphering with a 168-bits key, and the MD5 hash algorithm.

INTRODUCTION

Alcatel OmniPCX Office is used to offer an electronic messaging solution for all users in a company.
To do this, it supports various configurations:

- it can be the company's messaging server,

- it can be integrated into the company network if it already has a messaging server,

- it can facilitate access to an external messaging server.

These various possible configurations are described below:

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

Scenario 1: ALCATEL OMNIPCX OFFICE IS THE MESSAGING SERVER

For the description of the available e-mail addresses (Stand alone, PO3, IMAP4 or SMPTP
subscription), see the ANNEX 2 at the end of this file.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office makes available to each user a local letter box, and manages the flow of mes-
sages between users of the local network and those to and from the Internet. The protocols used by
this server are SMTP, to send messages, and POP3 or IMAP4, to manage mail boxes.

Remarque : The IMAP4 protocol (Internet Message Access Protocol) is an alternative to the protocol
POP3. It offers many more possibilities, including:

- check e-mail directly on the server, without having to download the messages,
- retrieve all, or part of, the attributes of a message,
- know the contents of a message before downloading it,
- organize the mail on the server.

Two possibilities must be considered:

- POP3 subscription: the IAP stores the mail messages (POP3 accounts),
- SMTP subscription: the IAP does not store the mail box.

1 - POP3 SUBSCRIPTION: THE IAP STORES THE MAIL MESSAGES (POP3 ACCOUNTS)

Each user has available:

- a private mail box with the IAP,


- a mail box on Alcatel OmniPCX Office (local).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/20


E-MAIL E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

It is Alcatel OmniPCX Office messaging server that downloads the mail to the local mail boxes for each
IAP connection or at pre-defined time intervals.

This principle, known as POP3 caching, makes it possible to optimise the FAI connections: a user is
not authorised to access his mail box directly with the FAI (since this would automatically create a con-
nection), he has access only to his local mail box.

Users

LAN
INTERNET

OmniPCX FAI server


Office

Periodic
exchanges

In addition to private mail boxes for each user, the IAP can also store a default mail box. This box,
which is optional, receives all the e-mails for an addressee who does not have a private mail box. Al-
catel OmniPCX Office retrieves the contents of this mail box and distributes it to different local mail
boxes depending on the addressee. This function is called Multidrop.

Nota : Refer to case 1 - B of the Using the E-mail Assistant section

The mode of operation is as follows:

• Outgoing mail

The mail sent by a user is "entrusted" to Alcatel OmniPCX Office that sorts it in accordance with the
following criteria:

- If the recipient's e-mail address corresponds to an address linked to a local user, the message
is deposited in the addressee's local mail box.

- In all other cases, the message is stored temporarily in Alcatel OmniPCX Office, then sent du-
ring the next connection or by default, at time intervals pre-defined in the Configuration -
>Email [Main tab] menu, the Activity field of the mail.

• Incoming mail

2/20 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS E-MAIL

The mail deposited in the mail boxes with the IAP(user letter boxes or default letter boxes) is retrie-
ved by Alcatel OmniPCX Office during the first connection following the depositing operation, or a
pre-defined time intervals (as described above), and routed to local mail boxes. Each user will then
be able to retrieve his mail in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

Important : The type of connection can be "on demand", "on demand with callback" or "permanent".
Alcatel OmniPCX Office's IP address can be static or dynamic.

2 - SMTP SUBSCRIPTION: THE IAP DOES NOT STORE MAIL BOXES

Mail boxes exist exclusively in Alcatel OmniPCX Office, and mail intended for users must be deposited
directly in these boxes.

In the case of a non-permanent connection, this procedure is not possible for mail coming from the
Internet without an additional service to store messages temporarily. This service, provided by many
ISPs, is known as "SMTP relay".

There are two possibilities, depending on whether or not the ISP provides an SMTP relay service:

E-MAIL E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

Office users in a queue, then transferring them to local mail boxes as soon as the connection
is established, or on explicit request from Alcatel OmniPCX Office by virtue of the ETRN (Exten-
ded Turn) command.

Nota : If the ETRN box has been checked, this command will be sent to the IAP's SMTP server
whenever a connection is made (on expiry of the "mail activity" time or voluntary con-
nections). The command will be ignored by the IAP in principle if the latter does not
provide this service.

- Outgoing mail

Outgoing company mail and mail intended for the Internet can also be relayed by the IAP SMTP
server, and this service is called “smart hosting”.

Important : The type of connection can be "on demand", "on demand with callback" or "permanent".
Alcatel OmniPCX Office's IP address must be static. The company must have its own do-
main name.

Scenario 2: A MESSAGING SERVER ALREADY EXISTS ON THE LAN


If the company is connected to the Internet via Alcatel OmniPCX Office, it is used as the gateway
between the LAN and the Internet for the exchange of messages. In such cases, the user must specify:

- The e-mail server's IP address on the LAN


- The protocol used for e-mail messages coming from the IAP: SMTP or POP3 depending on the IAP's
operating mode..

Scenario 3: THE MESSAGING SERVER IS HOSTED ON THE IAP


There is no messaging server in the company (Alcatel OmniPCX Office or LAN).

Alcatel OmniPCX Office is used as the gateway between LAN and Internet. To enable the exchange of
e-mails between the client PCs on the LAN and the Internet, the firewall rule “e-mail” must be opened
(see chapter on making Internet access secure).

PROPOSED SERVICES

When Alcatel OmniPCX Office is the messaging server, the following services are available:

- alias management,

- multi-domain management,

- routing to external users,

- Proxy POP3 server,

- Anti-virus

- Alert messages

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/20


E-MAIL E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

Alias management
This service is used to provide several recipient names per user.

When Alcatel OmniPCX Office receives messages, a recipient name / mail box correspondence table
allows the messaging server to distribute the messages to suitable local mail boxes. For each local mail
box this correspondence table contains the various recipient names that can be used to reach it.

This service is available:

- as an SMTP subscription, either with or without the SMTP relay service,

- as a POP3 subscription, only if the IAP hosts a default mail box and if Alcatel OmniPCX Office has
multidrop management enabled.

Multi-domain management
This service is used to manage several domain names for the same company. A main domain name
and one or more secondary domain names are defined in the IAP and in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

This service is available irrespective of the chosen subscription (POP3 or SMTP).

- as a POP3 subscription: the messages are sorted in the IAP and directed to the user mail boxes
hosted on the IAP. This means the messages are already sorted when Alcatel OmniPCX Office re-
trieves them and forwards them to the local mail boxes.

- as an SMTP subscriber: Alcatel OmniPCX Office sorts the messages when received; all messages
whose address includes a pre-defined domain name (main or secondary) are accepted, and routed
to users' local mail boxes.

Routing to external users


When Alcatel OmniPCX Office is the messaging server, it is possible to define uses as “remote wor-
kers”. These users have a personal mail box stored with the IAP, but they do not have a local mail box
on Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

The mail intended for them is routed as follows:

- mail from the company

Alcatel OmniPCX Office recognises the address and routes the message to the IAP. The mail is sto-
red in the remote user's personal mail box in the IAP, and is retrieved by the remote worker when
he logs onto the IAP server.

- Mail from the Internet

The mail is stored in the remote user's personal mail box in the IAP, and is retrieved by the remote
worker when he logs onto the IAP. This mail is not retrieved by Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

This service is available only in the case of a POP3 subscription:

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS E-MAIL

Proxy POP3 server


The Proxy POP3 server (bypass server) allows a remote worker connecting to the company's LAN to
check his mail box hosted on the IAP without being configured as an Alcatel OmniPCX Office user. To
do this, simply create an e-mail account on the e-mail client, including the following characteristics:

- POP3 account with the IAP = POP3server:account

- Password for POP3 account with the IAP = password

Anti-virus
The anti-virus is only active when Alcatel OmniPCX Office is the e-mail server. For more information
about how the anti-virus functions, consult the "Anti-virus" section.

Alert messages
There are two types of alert messages:

- alert messages on total disk space,

- alert messages on user disk space,

An alert message can be sent to the administrator when the disk space reserved for e-mails exceeds a
specific rate. This rate and the administrator's address are configured in the e-mail settings.

- Outgoing E-mail by specifying whether you choose the direct sending mode or the use of
your IAP's SMTP server to relay outgoing mail. (This service is also called Smart Hosting)

Click on Switch to the default account to access a new window comprising two areas:

• Default mailbox settings (Multidrop): used to configure the default mailbox used.

• Multidrop Envelope Field: In the case of a POP3 subscription with Multidrop option, Al-
catel OmniPCX Office needs to know which enveloped field is being used. Alcatel OmniPCX
Office uses the default parameter X-Envelope-To. If a different parameter is used, select the
User-defined option and enter the parameter in the adjacent text entry area.

Nota : The IAP must provide the parameter used. If this should happen, you can send a
message to a mailbox using the default account, and consult the message header to
find the parameter used.

T If you select the Without ISP mailboxes (SMTP) mode, fill in the following area:

- Server by specifying the name of the SMTP server, as well as the use of ETRN and smart
hosting

2.2. Click on Apply to validate the data, or on Cancel if you do not wish to keep the changes.

3. Click on the Domains tab. This tab displays the information required to define several domain na-
mes for e-mail accounts managed by Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

3.1. The Domain name for e-mails area is used to define your main domain name. Two choices
are possible:

- Select I have to use the ISP domain name if you do not have your own domain name
and enter the domain name provided by your ISP.

- If you do, select I have my own domain name and enter the public domain name (regis-
tered and declared with the authorities that manage Internet domain names).

In this case, it is possible to add a secondary domain name by typing the new name in the
New Secondary Domain Name area and clicking on the Add button. To delete a domain
name, select the name to be deleted from the Domain Name field and click on the Delete
button of the Secondary Domain Names area.

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS E-MAIL

ANNEX 2: SUMMARY OF THE AVAILABLE EMAIL ADDRESSES

This annex presents a summary of available Email addresses when Alcatel OmniPCX Office is the mes-
saging server (scenario 1).

WHAT IS AN E-MAIL ADDRESS?


An e-mail address must have the format user_part@domain_part. It has two parts:

1. User_part

2. Domain_part

User_part

This is usually somebody's name. It may also be the name of a department, team, office, etc. The user
part can be more than a simple string.

Exemple : "john.smith" or "research.team"

Domain_part

The domain part indicates the company's Internet address. For a company, "company.com" corres-
ponds to the domain part of the address, and ".com" corresponds to the domain. The domain part can
be more than a simple string.

Exemple : "research.company.com"

".com", the last part of the address, tells more about what kind of institution the address belongs to, or
what part of the world it's from.

Exemple :

- ".com" is usually a company or commercial institution


- ".gov" means a government site.
- ".net" means gateways and other administrative hosts for a network.
- ".org" groups private organizations who don't easily fit into other categories.

USER PART MANAGED BY OMNIPCX OFFICE


1. Login

The login of an Alcatel OmniPCX Office account comprises the user's first name and last name.
The login has the following form: name.surname.

Exemple : The Alcatel OmniPCX Office account login for JHN SMITH is "john.smith".

2. User part of a POP3 email address:

- User managed by Alcatel OmniPCX Office: the user has a POP3 account on the IAP's e-mail
server. An e-mail address in the format user_part@domain_part is associated with this ac-
count with this specific format Most often, the IAP administrator has been able to configure the

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 17/20


E-MAIL E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

user part and uses the convention First Name.Surname.


- External User: external users are only available if the Alcatel OmniPCX Office email server
mode is configured in POP3. An external user has his private POP3 mailbox by the ISP/ASP.

Remarque : Alcatel OmniPCX Office does not manage this mailbox. It is not polled by the Al-
catel OmniPCX Office e-mail server.

The user part of the external user's email address should be in accordance with the address
defined by the ISP/ASP's administrator.

3. User's alias

Alcatel OmniPCX Office administrator can define for each user, one or more aliases. An alias is
an alternative name for a user.

Exemple : user aliases for "john.smith" could be "jsm", "johns", etc.

4. Mailing List Name

A mailing list contains one or more user's login and/or one or more email addresses. If an email
is sent to this mailing list, the message will be broadcast to every member belonging to this list.

Exemple : Members of the "rd_team" mailing list: "john.smith", "pierre.dupont","marine.du-


[email protected]".

DOMAIN PART MANAGED BY ALCATEL OMNIPCX OFFICE


1. Name of the company's Local Area Network (LAN)

This may be the company's name (company.com). This name can be configured using WBM.

In the table below this name is identified by Internal_domain_part.

2. Company's Public Domain Name

There are two possible cases:

- The company has bought a domain name part from an IAP. This is the name of the company's
public domain, or domains.

In the table below this name is identified by External_domain_part.

- The company hasn't bought a domain name part. The ISP defines the domain part. Very often,
the domain name part corresponds to the name of the ISP.

Exemple : Wanadoo uses "wanadoo.fr" in France and the user John SMITH will have for email
address "[email protected]".

In the table below, this name is identified by ISP_domain_part.

ASSISTANT
The Web Communication Assistant is a Web application designed for Alcatel OmniPCX Office end
users to help them manage in-house corporate communication (e-mails and voice messages).

The Web Communication Assistant provides the following services:

1. E-mail management via the Webmail.

2. Voice mail management.

3. Using the "call" application.

4. Configuration of user parameters and nomad mode.

The main advantage of the Web Communication Assistant is that it gives teleworkers access to all these
services, from any workstation on the company's LAN or via the Internet.

The Web Communication Assistant uses a secure Web interface enabling it to function with Internet
Explorer (release 6 or later), Netscape Navigator (release 7 or later) and Mozilla (release 1.1 or later).
The HTTPS secure transfer protocol ensures the identification of the transmitter and the receiver, the
integrity and the privacy of the exchanged data.

This section deals in succession with the license, the services provided, the association between the user
account and the phone set, connection to the Web Communication Assistant and the relevant confi-
gurations.

THE LICENSE

By granting a user a Web Communication Assistant license, you give him or her the right to use all of
its associated applications, i.e.:

- e-mail via the "e-mails" application.

- the "voice mail" application

Remarques : if a user tries to access these services without a license, access will be refused.
It is not necessary to have a license to access the user's configuration settings.

The final customer buys as many licenses as there are users of Web Communication Assistant. The
administrator or operator manages the number of licenses attributed via WBM.

THE SERVICES PROVIDED

The Web Communication Assistant gives access to the applications described below.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


THE WEB COMMUNICATION E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS
ASSISTANT

The "e-mails" application


This application is used to manage e-mails on a PC, by accessing the mail server. The mail server must
be Alcatel OmniPCX Office. The user must have access to a local E-mailbox, and must have a Web
Communication Assistant license.

You can use this application to:

- send, receive, consult and organize your e-mails.

- Personalize this application's settings.

The "voice mail" application


This application is used to manage your phone set's mailbox using a multimedia PC, i.e.:

- Consult and listen to voice mail.


- Call back the person who left the message.
- Delete voice mail.

- Personalize this application's settings.

The user must first configure his internal mailbox, i.e. record his name and configure his password on
his phone set.

The "call" application


This application uses the Web interface to make calls.

The "preferences" application


This application is used to modify the user settings, i.e.:

- Personalize the Web Communication Assistant.


- Change the password giving access to the Web Communication Assistant.
- Manage the user account settings.
- Specify the number of the user's phone set.

- Managing the parameters of nomad mode.

ASSOCIATION BETWEEN THE USER ACCOUNT AND A PHONE SET

To have access to the "voice mail" application from any PC, it is necessary to create an association
between the user account and the user's phone set.

This association is defined by either the administrator or the user.

The association is defined by the administrator

The administrator only enters the number of the phone set associated with the user account when the
system is configured using the WBM.

2/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS THE WEB COMMUNICATION


ASSISTANT

Remarque : the administrator never enters the password of the phone set.

The association is defined by the user

When the association is defined by the users, two cases may arise:

- If the administrator has already entered the number of the phone set associated with the user ac-
count, the user only enters the password.

- If the administrator has not already configured the number of the phone set associated with the
user account, a window is displayed telling the user that his phone has not been identified and as-
king him to identify himself using his phone number and the password associated with the voice
mailbox.

The administrator can change the settings of an association or delete an association.

Remarque : the association of the user account and the phone set makes it possible to secure access
to these services (password).

DECLARATION OF A NOMAD SET

From release 3.0 of Alcatel OmniPCX Office, nomad mode can be used to replace a company set with
an external set. To do this, the mode must be configured and the set declared a nomad set.

Nomad operation completes the WCA by offering a telephone application when you are outside the
company. Nomad mode allows an employee on a business trip to use a GSM, a set in the home, a
hotel set, etc. to:

- Answer a call.

- Listen to a voice mail (via the WCA application).

- Set up a call (via the WCA application).

The workstation of a nomad set requires:

- A virtual terminal,

- A nomad PC outside the company with the application WCA,

- A nomad set outside the company (GSM, hotel set, etc.),

- A fixed set in the company.

Use
An IP connection is essential between the nomad application and the system. The caller can either be
an internal set or an exteranl party.

Incoming call

- The user has enabled nomad mode.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/8


THE WEB COMMUNICATION E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS
ASSISTANT

- The internal or external party calls the nomad worker on a company set connected to the system.

- The nomad application presents the incoming call and the caller hears the ring back tone.

- The system automatically calls the nomad set and if the call is answered, sets up a call between the
2 parties.

Outgoing calls

- The nomad user via the WCA nomad application requests a call from the system. The system then
calls the nomad set and if the call is answered, calls the requested number. After a few seconds,
the ring back tone is heard on the nomad set and the system automatically connects the 2 parties.

Listening to the voice mailbox

Voice mails can be consulted:

- Directly on the PC with the nomad WCA application.

- On the nomad set (via the WCA application).

Configuration

Software keys (PM5)

For nomad mode, an e-business solution with access to WCA services and Nomadic subscribers is es-
sential.

Creating a nomad set (PM5)

To use nomad mode you need to create a virtual set in the list of users before using the User wizard
via WCA. The virtual sets must be called Virtual Nomadic (respect upper/lower case and the space
between the words; virtual sets do not operate without this name). The default values of these sets can
be kept.

Attention : Check that the barring on virtual sets allows them to reach the numbers of the "Nomad"
sets.

Creating a user (WBM)

To create a user with rights to the WCA and to nomad mode:

1. Access the User wizard window.

2. Complete the fields then click Next.

3. Give the user's group then click Next.

4. Give the licenses assigned to the user then click Next.

5. Click End to validate the data and display the summary.

WCA with login and password.

1. Click this icon to start the nomad set configuration wizard.

2. Enter the password associated with the company set then click Next.

3. Give the name of the nomad set then click Next.

4. Give the call number of the nomad set, adding the public network access code then click Next.

5. Click End to enable nomad mode.

Attention : If the message "Cannot enable nomad mode since there are no more virtual terminals
available" is displayed, the virtual set has not been created. In this case, refer to "Crea-
ting a nomad set (PM5)".

Nomad mode preferences

Once the activation procedure is finished, the new icon with the name of the nomad set is displayed
in the right corner of the screen.

- Click this icon to modify the nomad mode preferences.

- Click "Go to nomad mode preferences" to add up to five nomad sets.

Important : Clicking on the nomad mode icon enables nomad mode; all calls intended for the
company set will now be routed to the nomad set. The dotted line between the 2 sets of
the icon changes into a continuous line.

Click the icon again to disable nomad mode.

Important :

- When the WCA connection is finished, nomad mode is disabled automatically. If the browser is
closed immediately, nomad mode will be disabled after 2 minutes.

- Wwhen nomad mode is enabled, "Nomad mode" is displayed on the company set.

- Personal forwarding of the company set takes priority over nomad mode, even if "Nomade mode"
is displayed. Forwarding still operates. By enabling nomad mode via WC, a warning message will
be displayed if personal forwarding is enabled on the company set.

- Dynamic forwarding can be used simultaneously with nomad mode (pay attention to the time delay
which must not be too short: you must add the time to route the call to the nomad set).

- The company set remains blocked while nomad mode is enabled (it cannot be used).

- Maximum number of nomad users: 15.

- IP terminals cannot be nomad sets.

CONTROL INTERNET UTILIZATION
9

To control the internet utilisation in the company, Alcatel OmniPCX Office comprises a proxy server.
The proxy server requires a software key. In this section, we shall deal in turn with the description of a
proxy server and the associated configurations.

DESCRIPTION

A proxy server is an application that gathers requests from client stations and transmits them to a re-
mote server. The remote server's response is then relayed back to the local PCs. The server, which ma-
nages communications, can provide the following services:

- Record everything it does, with a view to compiling statistics on the access of user groups.

- Filter access according to the requested URLs.

- Filter previously connected users.

Proxy servers can also handle caching: i.e. storing the most recently downloaded or used files on a
local disk for easier availability. This means a file need only be downloaded once from a web site, and
will then be transferred locally at much greater speed in response to identical requests. The main ad-
vantage lies in reducing traffic to and from the Internet, and in reducing the connection costs incurred
by Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

Remarque : Where the proxy license is available, the web access (HTTP, HTTPS and Gopher proto-
cols) and file transfer (FTP protocols) services must go through the proxy, unless a rule
is added to the firewall rule editor.

FEATURES

Alcatel OmniPCX Office includes a HTTP and FTP proxy server with all of the control features listed
below.

Web browsing
In the case of the mode with authentication, the user will be asked for a user name and a password
each time s/he starts a navigation session on the Internet. In the case of the mode without authenti-
cation, access to the Web is immediate. If user control is active, then accounts without the necessary
rights will be rejected.

An Internet navigation session is defined by the launch of a browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape Na-
vigator), access to one or more web sites, and the closure of the browser.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


CONTROL INTERNET UTILIZATION E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

URL filter
The URL filters are used to control the Internet access of certain user groups to certain web sites. The
principle is to block specific URLs according to a list generated by the administrator. This control is ap-
plied to individual groups of users.

If the control is active, three alternatives are available:

1. Offer free access to all web sites.

2. Prohibit specific URLs (Forbidden sites filters).

3. Give restricted access (Authorized sites filters).

Nine URL filters are defined by default, but the administrator can create additional filters. In order to
simplify filter management, they can be downloaded either manually or automatically (every week or
month) to Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

Time range
Here, a time range for Internet access is determined for each day of the week, either for the system
itself, or for individual groups of users.

File transfer
This control makes it possible to restrict the ability of one or two user groups to download files from
the Internet by blocking the FTP protocol. Downloading is only permitted via HTTP.

Statistics
Alcatel OmniPCX provides a tool enabling the Administrator to get an overview of Internet activity, and
compile statistics using log file data based on several criteria, namely user groups, services and desti-
nations. These statistics describe web access in terms of:

- User groups: statistics on Internet use.

- services used: statistics on the traffic for each service (HTTP or FTP).

- Web sites: the list of web sites visited.

Remarque : Access Control is only possible when the proxy option is selected.

PROXY CONFIGURATION

Click onProxy in the navigation bar. The Proxy/Cache Settings window appears. This window con-
sists of two tabs:

- Parameters

it is given the IP address of the proxy server (the OmniPCX IP address, on the LAN side) and the desti-
nation port number, which must correspond to the one entered in OmniPCX (Settings -> Proxy/Ca-
che -> Main -> Proxy Port Number).

SECURE INTERNET ACCESS
10

As Alcatel OmniPCX Office is the gateway between the company LAN and the Internet, it has to gua-
rantee Internet access for LAN users while protecting all machines on the LAN from external intrusions.
It is for this purpose that it incorporates the firewall and NAT (Network Address Translation) features.

OmniPCX Office
NAT

Internet
Firewall
LAN

What follows is a general description of how these functions work, before dealing with their configu-
ration in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

FIREWALL

In order to secure the Internet access, Alcatel OmniPCX Office has a certified firewall, which allows to:

- Protect the LAN against external intrusions.

- Protect Alcatel OmniPCX Office against external intrusions and intrusions coming from the LAN.

- Limit the availability of Internet Access.

Description
The firewall integrated into Alcatel OmniPCX Office uses a connection memory system (Connection
Tracking), based on the packets filtering method. In addition to filtering the data packets according to
their origins, destination, protocol and port, Connection Tracking examines the context of the data
flow. This firewall in particular saves the previous connection states and therefore controls continuously
that the circulating data are part of a previously open and authorised session.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


SECURE INTERNET ACCESS E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

The firewall is enabled as soon as the system starts and stays enabled as long as it runs; the system is
therefore permanently protected. The firewall configuration adapts itself, in a transparent manner for
the administrator, whenever the configuration of the product and its services is modified. The main
parameters affecting the firewall's configuration include:

- The software key's content.

For example, if the Proxy software key is present, it is impossible to access the Internet or to down-
load a file without going through the proxy, unless you explicitly authorize bypass of the Proxy by
activating the "Web access" and "File transfer" rules in the rules editor.

- Certain Internet access configuration options:

- Option to use the Alcatel OmniPCX Office e-mail server or another e-mail server.
- The availability of Internet services from the WAN.

- The VPN availability.

Filtering rules' editor


The rules' editor allows you to define, modify, enable, disable and delete rules. Each rule describes a
traffic (source, destination, ports and protocols) and its associated action (accept or reject). Upon re-
quest, an alarm message concerning the state of the system (accepted or rejected) is issued. The rules
editor also makes it possible to change the ordering of the rules, determining the order in which the
rules are examined when a packet is received. This order is therefore particularly important when a
packet can be processed by two distinct rules. The online help provides all the details about the exact
possibilities for configuring the rules and their syntax.

Attention : The administrator takes responsibility for using the filtering rules' editor, as they may be
compromising the network's safety. In this case, the firewall certification is no longer
guaranteed.

This tool enables the administrator to define his or her own security rules for the data flow between the
LAN and Internet, i.e.:

- the outgoing flow: traffic initiated by the LAN and flowing to the WAN.

- the incoming flow: traffic initiated by the WAN and flowing to the LAN.

Flows destined for the system are managed transparently by the firewall according to the availability
and configuration of the system's services.

The outgoing flow

An outgoing flow rule filters the packets according to their origin and destination addresses, their pro-
tocol and their destination port. Unlike incoming flow rules, an outgoing flow rule behaves in the same
way whether or not the NAT is activated.

The incoming flow

The incoming flow rules make the services hosted by the LAN servers accessible from Internet. The
incoming flow rules are considered differently depending on whether or not the NAT is activated.

2/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS SECURE INTERNET ACCESS

- When the NAT is deactivated, an incoming flow rule is considered as an outgoing flow rule, i.e. a
packet filter applying to its origin, destination and type.

- When the NAT is activated, the rule only filters the packet's origin address and type. If the packet
is accepted, the rule redirects it to the machine on the LAN whose address is indicated in the des-
tination field. The packet is redirected using the "port forwarding" mechanism (see the NAT sec-
tion).

Predefined rules

The predefined rules in the firewall configuration may be deleted or modified and new rules may be
added. Predefined rules are proposed by default to facilitate configuration. In this case certain proto-
cols are incompatible with NAT, when they transmit the stations' IP addresses or original port number
in a devious way (generally through the OSI application layer) and thus generate incoherent ports or
addresses.

The table below lists the preconfigured rules available, which group certain protocols according to the-
me. All these protocols are compatible with the NAT.

Pre-configured rules Application/Protocol Functionality


HTTP/HTTPS Web search

Web browsing rule Gopher Web search in text mode


Wais Database search
File transfer rule Ftp (active and passive) Download file
News Groups rule Nntp/Nntps News group

The "Web browsing" and "File transfer" rules are automatically declared on the first start-up if the Proxy
software key is not available.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/8


SECURE INTERNET ACCESS E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

The predefined rules of the Firewall rules editor group the above-mentioned protocols by theme (mes-
saging, multimedia, instant messaging...). When a preconfigured rule is activated, all the machines on
the LAN can exploit the protocols associated with this rule on the Internet. By editing these pre-confi-
gured rules, you can restrict:

- The LAN machines able to access the service, by limiting the source addresses and/or,

- the servers accessible on the Internet, by limiting the destination addresses.

Firewall events log


The firewall events are saved separate from other events linked to the system (for example in case of
dysfunction). The packets saved include:

- Packets coming from the WAN and rejected by the firewall.

- Packets starting a new connection and stopped by an entry into the rules' editor, whose role is to
trace the packets.

Firewall Rule Settings


The various firewall rule settings include:

- Protection of the WAN interface. By deactivating this setting it is possible to delete filtering of the
flows from the WAN to the LAN. This adjustment setting is useful when instead of being directly
connected to the Internet, the WAN is connected to a company network protected by another fi-
rewall.

- Disabling the NAT, in case of an external router connection, for example.

- Accessibility of the services giving Internet access from the WAN, i.e. the DNS server, the mail server
(SMTP, POP3, IMAP4), the Web proxy, the Intranet Web server and the FTP server. This adjustment
setting is useful for example in the case of an External Router connection.

- Access to a Web configuration from the WAN, in case of external router connection or remote
maintenance, for example.

Remarque : When the configuration, service or LAN are opened up to Internet, the system is exposed
to external attack.

NAT (Network Address Translation)

Presentation
NAT is a mechanism devised to palliate the shortage of web addresses. It enables a group of compu-
ters in a local network to access the Internet using a single IP address, in this case that of Alcatel Om-
niPCX Office, which makes it appear as the only system using the Internet connection.

Remarque : Alcatel OmniPCX Office only has the IP address officially provided by the active ISP at
any given time. The correlation of addresses in the NAT process is always of the type:
n local addresses to 1 public address.

4/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS SECURE INTERNET ACCESS

Operation
Computer X, located on the LAN, is instructed that Alcatel OmniPCX Office is its default gateway.

When a packet arrives in Alcatel OmniPCX Office from computer X, it is assigned a new available sour-
ce port number, and the OmniPCX Office IP address is declared in the packet header, without ove-
rwriting the original header. It then sends the changed packet to Internet.

When a packet arrives in Alcatel OmniPCX Office from the Internet, if the destination port number is
one of the source ports assigned in the preceding stage, then the header is again modified to restore
the original port numbers and IP addresses, and the packet is passed on to machine X.

Advantages
These advantages are:

- flexibility in the private address plan of the LAN;

- the shared use of a single public IP address for any number of private addresses in the LAN;

- Increase in security via concealment of the company network from Internet.

Restrictions
There are two types of restriction:

1. An Alcatel OmniPCX Office user (see the "Users and User Groups" file) is the client of an Internet
service. The predefined rules comprise all the protocols compatible with the NAT.

The table gives a non-exhaustive list of the applications or protocols that are incompatible with the
NAT and are not supported.

Application/Protocol Functionality
Applications H.323 Internet telephony
IRC Instant messaging
Archie FTP search

2. A computer on the local network hosts a service for clients on the Internet (i.e. acts as a web server).

The functioning principle of the NAT prohibits this type of topology. However, thanks to Alcatel
OmniPCX Office's port forwarding feature, a server located on the LAN is made accessible from
Internet, if the protocols concerned remain compatible with the NAT. This forwarding is configured
using the firewall rules for incoming flows (see the "Filtering rules' editor" section). When messaging
is configured in "server hosted on the LAN" mode, the appropriate rules are automatically added
to the firewall rules' editor.

MANAGEMENT OF THE FIREWALL RULES

The firewall rules are defined for the outgoing and incoming flows. We refer to outgoing rules and

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/8


SECURE INTERNET ACCESS E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

incoming rules. Incoming and outgoing rules are configured in the same way.

Management of the firewall rules, whether incoming and outgoing, comprises the following tasks:

- adding a rule,

- modifying a rule's properties,

- deleting one or several rules,

- enabling one or several rules,

- disabling one or several rules.

The procedures below are described in the case of outgoing rules. They are identical for incoming ru-
les, except when the NAT is activated.

Important : It is recommended to read the online help available before starting to configure the fi-
rewall rules.

ANTI-VIRUS
11

An anti-virus software is an application or application suite that detects viruses and suppresses them.

This service is not provided by Alcatel OmniPCX Office. The anti-virus software is installed on a dedi-
cated LAN server and protects the following solutions in Alcatel OmniPCX Office:

- E-mail
- Web page transfer (HTTP protocol)

- File transfer (FTP protocol)

Remarque : The dedicated must have a static IP address.

The same anti-virus software can be used for E-mail, file transfers and Web page transfers. The anti-
virus software for e-mail and HTTP/FTP flows can function on two different servers.

Remarque : It is not recommended to use the dedicated server as a client station. In this case, a spe-
cial configuration is needed.

In the sections below, a general presentation is given of how to protect e-mails and the HTTP/FTP flows
against viruses, and then we explain how to configure this protection on Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office e-mail protection

The anti-virus software is only enabled when Alcatel OmniPCX Office is the mail server.

Incoming e-mails (including attached files) are sent directly to the anti-virus server and tested. Non-
infected e-mails are forwarded to the recipients.

Protection of HTTP and FTP flows

The Web pages and files transferred by FTP are sent directly to Alcatel OmniPCX Office, and then tes-
ted by the anti-virus software. Non-infected Web pages and files are forwarded to the recipients.

Remarque : It is impossible to bypass the anti-virus software. If the dedicated hardware or software
is out of service, the customer cannot access Internet, or transfer files.

For the HTTP flow, if a virus is detected an alert window is displayed during navigation on Internet. For
the FTP flow, if a virus is detected the program indicates that they system has detected a virus. In both
cases, the administrator can be informed.

SECURITY
12

To protect the Alcatel OmniPCX Office Internet services, the following protection mechanisms are in-
tegrated into the system:

1. Passwords.

2. Passive security.

3. Active security.

The protection mechanisms provided by Alcatel OmniPCX office make it possible to implement an ac-
tive and passive approach to security. However, to guarantee the LAN's global security, you must:

- Consider the security of all the LAN's elements, and not just the point of access (e.g. a modem
connected to Internet via a PC destroys the security model).

- Use an appropriate methodology (e.g. vulnerability monitoring).

This section deals successively with the different security mechanisms.

PASSWORDS

The administrator and operator passwords giving access to the WBM from the LAN, are defined by
default.

It is impossible to access the WBM from the WAN with the "admin" or "operator" accounts. To access
the WBM from the WAN, you must create a user that has administrator or operator rights.

When migrating from an installation implementing an R1.X or R2.0 solution to an installation imple-
menting an R2.1 solution, the administrator password is restored and the operator password takes the
default value.

To make the system secure, it is possible to change the administrator and operator passwords via the
WBM.

1. Click on General in the navigation bar. The General window displays.

2. Click on the Password tab.

3. In the Operator password area, fill in the following fields:

Remarque : If the old password is entered incorrectly, the Web-Based Management - Error win-
dow is displayed, giving the causes and the solutions to the problem.

PASSIVE SECURITY

Passive security comprises all preventive actions that protect Alcatel OmniPCX Office against any at-
tack. The following actions are available:

1. Utilization of the defined password format.

2. Resetting of the administrator password.

3. Closure of the system to the WAN.

Utilization of the defined password format


The administrator, operator and user passwords must comply with the following rules:

- comprise 6 to 8 characters,
- comprise at least one upper-case letter,
- comprise at least one non alphanumeric character.

The password format is verified when it is crated or changed in the WBM.

Resetting of the administrator password


When a password is lost, the administrator can reset it by deleting the existing password.

Resetting of the administrator password can be configured by PM5 (Expert view). Proceed as follows:

1. PM5 -> System Miscellaneous -> Password

2. Select IA in the Level drop-down menu and click on Reset.

Remarque : PM5 cannot reset the operator password. However the administrator can change the
operator password via WBM. For more information, consult the "Passwords" section.

Closure of the system to the WAN


By default, Alcatel OmniPCX Office is not open on the WAN. This prevents any risk of piracy. If Alcatel
OmniPCX Office is opened on the WAN, the firewall protects the system against any attack. For more
information about the firewall, consult the "Making Internet access secure" file.

ACTIVE SECURITY

Active security groups together the actions that actively control attacks that are external in origin.

Authentication failed
After 5 consecutive authentication failures, Alcatel OmniPCX Office puts the relevant PC in quarantine
for 30 minutes. During this time, the firewall blocks any request emanating from this PC.

Every authentication failure is logged in a log file. This file contains the PC's IP address and the user
account. These log files are accessed via the WBM dashboard. To access the WBM dashboard, consult
the "Administration" file.

Remarque : Every attempt to connect with an administrator, operator or user account undergoes this
process.

This section deals successively with notification by e-mail, hard disk management (partition, backup
and restore), statistics on system activity and on the Internet services made available, and configuration
of these services on Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

E-MAIL NOTIFICATION

This service makes it possible to configure in a uniform way all the notifications originating from e-mail
services (notifications of user disk space threshold) and PKI certificates (notifications of current certifi-
cate's expiry).

The administrator configures a general e-mail address for all notifications, and if necessary a specific
address for each service concerned. For more information, consult the "E-mail" and "VPN" sheets.

The general e-mail address can be:

- the address of a user


- a broadcasting list
- an external address
- a user alias

The administrator is able to configure an e-mail address to receive the e-mails automatically sent to
the postmaster (e-mail alias that groups all the e-mail addresses of users who have administrator ri-
ghts). These alerts give notification of service malfunctioning.

HARD DISK MANAGEMENT

Alcatel OmniPCX Office's hard disk contains all the data pertaining to the offered Internet services, i.e.:

• e-mail messages
• file server files
• Intranet Web server files
• Voice mail messages
• URL filters.

Hard disk partition


Partitioning a hard drive is convenient because it allows a better organization of the data through as-
signing a storage space to each feature of the Alcatel OmniPCX Office and slicing the hard disk into
several virtual sub-sections.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office has two types of partitions. Fixed-size partitions for the applications, and va-
riable sized partitions, depending on the size of the selected hard drive.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/10


ADMINISTRATION TOOLS E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

The following partitions have been created on the Alcatel OmniPCX Office hard drive:

• one partition for the software,


• one for swap,
• one partition for the file server,
• one for the electronic messaging,
• one partition for the proxy,
• one for voice mail,
• one for the Intranet.

Data backup and restoration


To avoid losing data after a hard drive crash, Alcatel OmniPCX Office is equipped with a backup me-
chanism for all existing files. This mechanism also creates backup files for the configuration of tele-
phony and Internet services. The backup is done on network equipment.

In the event of a hard disk replacement, all data are restored on the new hard disk from the last backup
operation.

The backup can be manual or automatic. If it is automatic, the administrator programmes how often
and at what time the backup is carried out. Data restoration is manual.

INFORMATION AND STATISTICS

The administrator can obtain advanced statistics on system activity over a period of time or at a given
time, and on application aspects, thanks to the statistics tool integrated in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.
These data can be accessed through the WBM interface. These statistics are shown in tables with the
possibility of accessing graphics allowing the user to view the evolution over time.

Two types of information are accessible via WBM:

- Snapshot information: system activity measures saved in real time.

- Statistics : information stored on the Alcatel OmniPCX Office's hard disk (system activity statistics
and applications statistics).

Snapshot information can be viewed in tables. These statistics can be viewed in graphics (by day or
fortnight) or in tables.

Snapshot information
System activity information shown in the statistics tool relate to:

- System information,

- management of the memory and swap, as well as the processor load,

- hard disk utilisation (partition),

- network traffic.

Web-Based Management (WBM) is an Alcatel OmniPCX Office Internet service administration tool.

WBM can be used by a local administrator called an operator.

To use the WBM at operator level, you must log on using:

- either a user account belonging to a group that has operator rights.

- or the default "operator" account.

WHAT ARE THE OPERATOR'S FUNCTIONS?

An operator can only manage routine tasks. S/he cannot modify service configuration.

The operator's main tasks are:

1. User management

The operator's most important responsibility is user management. Concerning the user groups, the
operator only has access to a read-only summary of the existing groups' settings. Creation of user
groups remains the administrator's privilege.

2. Supervision of system information and statistics

Advanced statistics on system activity can be obtained over a period of time or at a given time, and
on application aspects, thanks to the statistics tool integrated in Alcatel OmniPCX Office. These
data can be accessed through the WBM interface. These statistics are shown in tables with the pos-
sibility of accessing graphics allowing the user to view the evolution over time.

Two types of information are accessible via WBM:

- Snapshot information

These are measurements of the system's activity, recorded in real time.

- System information,

- management of the memory and swap, as well as the processor load,

- hard disk utilisation (partition),

- network traffic.

- Statistics

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/14


OPERATOR ADMINISTRATION LEVEL E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

Information stored on the Alcatel OmniPCX Office's hard disk (system activity statistics and ap-
plications statistics). It is stored in the log files. Three types of statistical analysis are available:

- Statistics on HTTP resources access: Proxy server (HTTP or FTP protocol) and Intranet Web
server.

- Statistics on e-mail service.

- Statistics on the various connection types: Internet connections (DSL or ISDN modem), VPN
and RAS connections.

Snapshot information and statistics can be consulted in the form of either graphics or tables.

3. Configuration of time ranges and mailing lists, as well as backup management.

- Configuration of the time ranges

Here, a time range for Internet access is determined for each day of the week, either for the
system itself, or for individual groups of users.

- Mailing list configuration

A mailing list contains one or more user's login and/or one or more email addresses. If an
email is sent to this mailing list, the message will be broadcast to every member belonging to
this list.

- Backup Management

To avoid losing data after a hard drive crash, Alcatel OmniPCX Office is equipped with a bac-
kup mechanism for all existing files. This mechanism also creates backup files for the configu-
ration of telephony and Internet services. The backup is done on network equipment.

In the event of a hard disk replacement, all data are restored on the new hard disk from the
last backup operation.

The backup can be manual or automatic. If it is automatic, the operator programs how often
and at what time the backup is carried out. Data restoration is manual.

Implementing Alcatel OmniPCX and its functionalities brings into play three main elements which may
lie behind any problems encountered on installation and configuration. They are:

- the client station;

- the system (OmniPCX);

- the Internet access provider.

INTERNET ACCESS

Nothing works: check that all the network elements can communicate with each other.

1. Alcatel OmniPCX Office fails to respond to a ping from all PCs. Alcatel OmniPCX Office does not
have LAN access.

- Check the Ethernet connections, and the IP address on the LAN side.

- Check that the LAN settings in the Settings -> Network menu are correct.

2. OmniPCX fails to respond to a ping from a particular PC. There is a network problem on the PC.

- Check the connections (network cable and board).

- Check the network settings (Network icon in the control panel).

3. Alcatel OmniPCX Office responds to a ping from all PCs. Alcatel OmniPCX Office is properly con-
figured at LAN level. The problem therefore lies in the Internet connection.

Alcatel OmniPCX Office can't connect up to the ISP

1. Check the ISDN connection.

2. Check the connection settings provided by the ISP and configured in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

3. Check that the ISP profile is active, and that communication has not been deactivated.

4. Use the connection test tool provided on Alcatel OmniPCX Office (click on Connection in the na-
vigation bar, then on Connection test in the general information banner or on the Test button in
the Selecting the Active Connection Profile) area. This tool carries out the connection to the ISP
step by step, and gives the main causes of the problem and the solutions, if a connection step fails.

The browser on the PC can't access web sites.

1. Alcatel OmniPCX Office fails to respond to a ping from the PC. See the instance above.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/2


TROUBLESHOOTING E-SERVER : INTERNET APPLICATIONS

2. Alcatel OmniPCX Office responds to a ping from the PC. This is caused by either:

- an Internet navigator configuration problem. Check that this configuration corresponds to the
Alcatel OmniPCX Office security function (proxy software key active or not).
- a security problem:

- If user access control is enabled, check that the user has been properly declared. If neces-
sary, change the password.

- If web access control is enabled, check that the site is authorized.

- If a particular protocol is being used, check that it is correctly configured in Alcatel OmniPCX
Office.

E-MAIL

When a client station can't send and/or receive e-mail, check the following:

1. The POP3 mailboxes are hosted by the ISP.

- Check the mail server configuration on Alcatel OmniPCX Office.


- Check the POP3 account settings (name and password) for the user created in Alcatel OmniPCX
Office.
- Test the mail server configuration using the testing tool included in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.
The tool will test the ISP's mail server and suggest appropriate solutions in the event of failure.
- Contact the ISP to check that the POP3 accounts are valid.

- Check the mail client configuration. Alcatel OmniPCX Office should be the POP3 and SMTP
server. The POP3 login and password for each user should correspond to the OmniPCX set-
tings.

2. The ISP is the SMTP relay for the messaging service.

- Check the mail server configuration on Alcatel OmniPCX Office.


- Test the mail server configuration using the testing tool included in Alcatel OmniPCX Office.
The tool will test the ISP's mail server and suggest appropriate solutions in the event of failure.
- Contact the ISP.

- Check the mail client configuration. Alcatel OmniPCX Office should be the POP3 and SMTP
server. The POP3 login and password for each user should correspond to the OmniPCX set-
tings.

3. The ISP has a direct SMTP connection to Alcatel OmniPCX Office. Check the configuration of Alcatel
OmniPCX Office, and of the ISP.

PRESENTATION

The RAS (Remote Access Server) feature allows remote clients to connect seamlessly to the corporate
network from the outside.

This section describes the dialling remote access mode offered by Alcatel OmniPCX Office. This
mode allows a remote client to use the ISDN network to connect to the corporate LAN. Once they are
connected, the RAS clients (telecommuting or mobile workers) can use the corporate LAN resources as
if they were connected locally. They can share files, query databases, access their e-mails, print files,
etc.).

ISDN

LAN (Intranet)

RAS client

Nota : Alcatel OmniPCX Office also allows the remote access via VPN mode where a remote
client uses an IP sub-network to establish a virtual point-to-point connection to Alcatel Om-
niPCX Office.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


OUTLINE E-SERVER : REMOTE ACCESS SERVER
(RAS)

AVAILABILITY

RAS is available with the following solutions:

- Business (CPU, CPU-1/CPU-2)


- e-Business (CPUe-1/CPUe-2)

SERVICES PROVIDED

On-demand bandwidth
With MPPP (Multi-link Point-to-Point Protocol), an RAS client can dynamically make/release a second
ISDN call to the RAS server in order to decrease/increase its bandwidth from 64 to 128 Kbps.

Thus, an Alcatel OmniPCX Office system with 16 simultaneous RAS accesses can support a maximum
of:

- 16 accesses with a bandwidth of 64 Kbps

- or 8 accesses with a bandwidth of 128 Kbps

- or, more generally, N accesses at 64 Kbps + P accesses at 128 Kbps (with N + 2P < or = 16)

Nota : An RAS client can directly establish a connection at 128 Kbps.

Callback
Alcatel OmniPCX Office offers two types of recalls:

- Call-back of the requesting party's number where he/she is.

- Call-back of a predefined number wherever it is (it is the secured form of the call-back).

RAS Alcatel OmniPCX Office uses the CBCP (Call-back Control Protocol) protocol to negotiate the call-
back's use.

Nota : When the call-back is used, the connection's bandwidth cannot exceed 64 Kbps.

Quality of IP Service (QoS)


Alcatel OmniPCX Office offers the following QoS mechanisms:

- DiffServ (Differentiated Services) : QoS at the IP level

- Multi-Class Extension to MPPP: QoS at the PPP level (RFC 2686)

Nota : To be fully effective, QoS should also be applied on the RAS client's side.

Data compression
Alcatel OmniPCX Office offers the following compression algorithms:

2/4 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File
1

E-SERVER : REMOTE ACCESS SERVER OUTLINE


(RAS)

- PPP header

- Van Jacobson

- STAC/MS-STAC and BSDCOMP

The compression rules are negotiated between the RAS client and the server during the LCP (Link Con-
trol Protocol) phase.

RAS service availability


The remote access availability can be defined globally or for each connection:

- By time range: access to the RAS server can be limited to certain times of the day and/or to some
days of the week.

- Inactivity timeout: period during which an RAS client can be connected without any data being
transferred.

Security
Since RAS is designed to seamlessly connect a remote client to a network, the security of these connec-
tions is important. The following security mechanisms are available:

- User authentication: The CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) and PAP (Password
Authentication Protocol) protocols are supported.

- Log: this log enables the administrator to detect connection issues easily. The following information
is available:

- User name, connection time, calling number, date, connection type (direct/call-back), band-
width used (64 or 128 Kbps).
- Authentication failure, date, calling number.
- Failure during LCP phase (IP addresses have run out, unauthorised bandwidth).

IP services
When the RAS client has successfully completed the authentication phase, it is assigned an IP address
by the server. This assignment is made individually in static mode (user always obtains the same IP
address) or in dynamic mode (user obtains an address from an address pool).

Nota : The RAS clients' IP addresses are on the same sub-network as the RAS LAN.

After this address has been assigned, the client can use the IP services (FTP, HTTP, POP3, etc.). If the
DNS and WINS services are used, it is important to ensure that the server is configured with the IP ad-
dresses of the appropriate DNS and WINS servers.

REQUIRED EQUIPMENT ON SYSTEM

Hardware
A CoCPU-1 or CoCPU-2 board and the RAS software key are required for the RAS function to be
available with a maximum of 16 accesses. A system can only have one RAS CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2
board.
The number of available remote accesses should be a multiple of 2.

The system should have at least the same number of ISDN accesses as RAS connections.

Software
The system should have the Internet Access software installed (RAS is included in the software).
The corporate LAN should use the IP protocol.

REQUIRED EQUIPMENT ON CLIENT PC

Hardware
The PC should be equipped with an ISDN adapter, typically a basic access with 2 64-Kbps B-channels

Software
The remote client PC should be equipped with the following software:
- Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 SP with patch 5997
- Microsoft Windows 95
- Microsoft Windows 98
- Microsoft Windows ME
- Microsoft Windows 2000 SP1
- Microsoft Windows XP

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION by PM5

RAS accesses are considered as virtual S0 interfaces, when it comes to telephones. These interfaces
follow the distribution mechanisms of the system's calls (discrimination, traffic sharing, etc.).

Direct access
T By default, all RAS accesses belong to a sequential grouping. Assign a DDI number to that grou-
ping so that it can be called from the outside:
Numbering plan -> Public Numbering Plan

PRESENTATION

The CSTA protocol is proposed on an Ethernet TCP/IP link via the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system CPU
board.

The CSTA application is built around an ECMA standard. This standard covers:
- a set of services for applications involving both telephone and computer (ECMA-179)
- a protocol for system/computer exchanges (ECMA-180) enabling the above-mentioned services to
operate

Version implemented: version 1

Applications available

- Alcatel Office Call Center (AOCC)

FUNCTIONAL ARCHITECTURE

A typical CSTA application involves:

- an Alcatel OmniPCX Office system which manages the application's telephone resources
- a CTI server on which the CSTA application is run. It is connected to the system's CPU board via a
CTI link (third party connectivity).
- client PCs associated with the telephone sets and constituting the operator's workstation.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/16


THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA APPLICATIONS

SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURE

The CSTA connection is made via a CSTA agent located in the system. The maximum number of si-
multaneous sessions is 28. The tasks performed by an agent are:

- management of connection with the CTI server


- ASN1 encoding/decoding of requests and events in compliance with ECMA 180
- recovery of telephone events for the monitored devices
- management of the connection between the telephone application and the system corresponding
to the service request from the CTI server

CSTA DIALOGUE

CSTA dialogue is built around the Client/Server model. Each party (system, computer server) can send
or reply to a service request and provide an event report.

CSTA MODEL

The CSTA standard makes the application independent of physical implementation of the switching
networks used. To do this, it provides the applications it addresses with an abstract view of the under-
lying telephone assembly. This abstraction is obtained by modeling the switching part. The generic mo-
del developed to represent the working of the telephone part is built around three notions:

The Device

This notion refers to:

- physical devices such as: telephone sets, circuit groups, lines,


- logical devices: groups, ACD.
- Device Type
CSTA defines several types of devices which can be handled or observed (ACD, operator, circuit
group, etc.).
- Device Class
The devices observed can belong to different families (data, image, voice, other)
- Device Identifier
The devices handled are referred to by a device identifier for the CSTA service. Depending on
whether or not the device is involved in a call, the identifier will be dynamic or static.
- Device State
This is a set of connection states linked to a particular device.

Call

This is a switching relationship (generally) between two or more devices. It is also a CSTA object. In a
CSTA domain, the behavior of telephone call establishment and release can be observed and han-
dled. To characterize a call, two parameters are of use:

- Call Identifier
A call reference is automatically created by the switching domain as soon as a call appears.
- Call State
This is a list of connection states (see connection below) for all the devices involved in a particular
call.

Connection

A Connection is a relationship between a call and a device. This relationship can be both monitored
and handled. In fact, the various services provided by the CSTA protocol consist in observation and
handling of connections. A connection is defined by an identifier and a state.

- Connection Identifier
The connection identifier consists of the pairing of a call identifier with a device identifier.
- For each call, there are as many connection identifiers as there are devices connected.
- For each device, there are as many connection identifiers as there are calls connected.
- Connection state
A state is allocated to each connection, to characterize the position of the connection.
Changes in the state of the connection can be described using a states machine.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CSTA LINK (SYSTEM <-> SERVER)

PRESENTATION

The CSTA link is the one which connects the system's CSTA server to the CTI server. It consists of an
Ethernet link supporting a stack of BSD4.3 compatible TCP/IP protocols for the lower layers and OSI-
compliant ACSE/ROSE/ASN1 for the higher layers. The RFC 1122 and RFC 1058 recommendations
are also adhered to.

LINK MANAGEMENT

Initialization

To initialize the link, the CTI server must connect to the transport layer (TCP protocol) on TCP port
2555. Once this connection is made, the application identifies itself at session level (by sending the
character 'B'), the system then responds by sending the character 'P'.
Message Transmission direction Meaning
B CTI Server -> System Identification of the application
P System -> CTI Server CPU
EXIT CTI Server -> System End of connection

APPLICATIONS THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA

Identification (future version)

The CSTA protocol falls into layer 7 (application) of the OSI model. Its implementation in the system
uses the ACSE (Association Control Service Element) defined by OSI for managing application links.

In the association request (AARQ) the CTI application specifies the list of CSTA versions supported and
the list of CSTA services and events used.

The association can be rejected by the system's CSTA server if:


- the ACSE versions are incompatible
- there is no common CSTA version between the CTI server and the system

When the association is accepted, the system sends back a reply (AARE) containing the chosen CSTA
version and the list of usable CSTA services and events.

Connection release

The CTI application sends an association cancellation request (RLRQ ADPU); the system replies with
RLRE ADPU.

The connection is then released by an EXIT message sent by the server. Each side then releases the TCP
connection.

Surveillance

A surveillance mechanism is installed at application level, to ensure that the link is available. This me-
chanism enables the CTI server to detect any malfunctions (reboot) on the system side. This function
exists in TCP but the reaction time is longer.

When there are no exchanges on the link, the system's CSTA server periodically (every 30 s) sends sys-
tem status requests (bi-directional services). These requests must be acknowledged by the CTI server.
If the requests are not transmitted or if the replies are not received, the link is considered to be faulty
after two messages have been sent with no reply.

Failures

- Failure of the CTI server or failure of the link:


- the calls established remain unchanged
- the monitoring events are lost
- the monitoring requests are cancelled
- the system's CSTA server cancels the connection context
The CTI server must reconnect and restart monitoring.
- Failure of a terminal (UA set, UA link or DLC board): the calls established are deleted. When the
terminal returns to valid status, the CSTA server resumes the monitoring process.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/16


THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA APPLICATIONS

- System reset:
- all the calls are lost
- the monitoring events are lost
- the monitoring requests are cancelled
The CTI server has to reconnect.

DEVICE IDENTIFIER

This paragraph describes the internal structure of the device identifiers used by the system's CSTA ser-
ver.

Static Device Identifier

As long as a device is not involved in a call, it is designated by its directory number. Thus, to establish
a call with "Make-Call", or request monitoring with "Monitor Start", the directory number of the device
concerned is used.

Dynamic Device Identifier

As soon as the device concerned is involved in a call, reference must be made to it in the connection
identifier, using the dynamic identifier. Thus, for a "Transfer-Call", the dynamic identifier obtained in
the previous events is used.

Label Length Connection identifier (10 bytes) .

Label Length Dynamic identifier (4 bytes) Label Length Call identifier (2 bytes)

APPLICATIONS THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA

DESCRIPTION OF CSTA SERVICES

The implementation of CSTA services in the Alcatel OmniOffice system uses the principle of device mo-
nitoring. Each monitoring request creates a "data stream" between the monitored system device and
the CSTA application of the CTI server which made the request. All the events of all the connections in
which the device is involved are reported by this "data stream" which is identified by a reference
(cross_ref_id). All the events carried by the "data stream" are identified by this reference, which enables
them to be routed through the CSTA application.

The CSTA services are available for the following elements:

- Alcatel multiline Reflexes sets (including DECT sets and IP Phones)


- Monoline Alcatel Reflexes sets
- Analogue Z terminals
- Virtual terminals

Nonetheless, devices not supported can be involved in communications with supported devices. In
such cases, the CSTA service requests can only be made on the supported devices.

The switching services introduced by CSTA use those offered by the system. This means that from the
viewpoint of the telephone set, the CSTA services behave in the same way as the equivalent telephone
services provided manually.
To be able to activate switching services on a device, the device must be the subject of a valid super-
vision request.

SERVICES PROVIDED

The services offered by the CSTA protocol are of four types:

- switching services enable a computer to control the switching capacity of the system. For all these
services, the server is, therefore, the system and the client is a computer on the network.
- monitoring services enable a client situated in the computing domain to receive information con-
cerning calls or system devices situated in the switching domain.
- computer services enable a client situated in the computing domain to request routing of a call.
- bi-directional services allow installation of services not defined in the protocol.

SWITCHING SERVICES

Answer Call

This service can be used to connect a call presented or camped on.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 7/16


THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA APPLICATIONS

Alternate Call

This service can be used to combine the "Hold Call" service followed by the "Retrieve Call" service.

The call on hold becomes active while the current call is placed on hold.

Clear Connection

This service can be used to clear a call from a specific device (similar to going on-hook manually).

Consultation Call

This service can be used to combine the "Hold Call" service followed by the "Make Call" service.

The call active on a device is placed on hold and a new call is made from the same device.

Hold Call

This service places an established connection on hold (similar to manually placing on hold).

Make Call

This service is used to generate a CSTA call between 2 devices.

The "Make Call" service is unaware of the device states (forwarded, controlled, etc.). The user can reject
(soft key, End key, time-out) or accept the call (off-hook, soft key, hands-free key, time-out).
The system can be programmed for automatic answer mode. After a time-out (5 seconds by default),
the system simulates a "hands-free" mode on the original device.
If the service is accepted, the application automatically dials on behalf of the user.

Query device

This service provides terminal status indications.

Reconnect Call

This service is used to combine the "Clear Connection" service with the "Retrieve Call" service.

Retrieve Call

This service is used to connect a call on hold (similar to the corresponding manual operation).

Transfer Call

This service transfers a holding call into an active call on the same device (similar to a supervised trans-
fer).

Associate data

This service (available through use of the "Escape" service) associates information (project code, autho-
rization, code, etc.) with a specific call (this information has no impact on the call).

Send DTMF tones

8/16 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File
2

APPLICATIONS THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA

This service (available by using the "Escape" service) enables DTMF tones to be added after a call is
connected.

Dial digits

This service (available by using the "Escape" service) allows a dialing sequence to be associated with a
call (the call is initiated manually by going off-hook or via a "Make Call" or "Consultation Call" service).

Pick up Edn

This service (available by using the "Escape" service) camps a (ringing) call on a given terminal.

Get config

This service (available by using the "Escape" service) returns information about the system configura-
tion.

Device status

This service (available by using the "Escape" service) enables you to:

- start monitoring the creation/deletion of a terminal on the system


- stop monitoring
- request a device status
- request the status for all the terminals.

A terminal status gives the following information: direct number, physical status of terminal, in service
/ out of service.

Nota : Particularities of mono-line terminals:


Certain CSTA services (Answer Call, Consultation Call, etc.) may be rejected by mono-line
terminals, as a mono-line terminal can simultaneously manage only one connected call and
one call on hold (or 1 or more camped calls).
Example: it cannot answer a camped call when another call is on hold.

SUPERVISION SERVICE

This service enables a CSTA client to receive messages concerning the CSTA events occurring on a mo-
nitored device.

- It must be activated by the event monitoring activation service, used to specify the device monitored.
- Monitoring stops by itself if the monitored device disappears (as is the case with a call) or can be
stopped by the monitoring deactivation service.
- A client can find out the current state of a call or device simply by requesting it.
- The client may not necessarily receive all the events generated by the monitoring process, but sim-
ply a sub-set of them by activating a monitoring filter.

Monitor Start

This service activates Call Event Monitoring. There are two types of activation service:

- call monitoring activation: all events on the devices in which the call is involved are reported.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 9/16


THIRD PARTY CTI - CSTA APPLICATIONS

- device monitoring activation

When the CSTA server has accepted the monitoring activation request, it sends the client an on-the-fly
data stream describing the CSTA events of the call or device being monitored. If a filter has been ac-
tivated, only the chosen events will be transmitted. The server automatically ends supervision when the
monitored object disappears, which can happen with a call.

The CSTA server also provides a reference: Cross Reference Id, associated with the monitoring process
for as long as it lasts. This reference will be used whenever anything is done on the monitoring process
(change filter, deactivate, etc.).

Monitor Stop

This service is used to stop the monitoring process for a given object (device or call). It can be invoked
by a client who no longer wishes to receive information concerning a previously monitored object, or
by a system no longer able to provide information about the object.

When the request is accepted by the server, the data stream describing the CSTA events for the moni-
tored call or device ceases.

Change Monitor Filter

This service is used to change the monitoring filter on an existing monitoring process. The monitoring
filters are used to define the information to be transmitted by the monitoring process.

Snapshot Device

This service is used to obtain information concerning a specified device. This information includes the
list of calls involving the device and the state of each connection.

BI-DIRECTIONAL SERVICES

Escape

The escape procedure permits the installation of services not defined in the protocol.

System Status

This service identifies the system status, whether for the switching part or the computing part.

PROTOCOL CONFORMITY: PICS

The implementation of the CSTA protocol on the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system is set out in the fol-
lowing tables.

Nota :

This list is not exhaustive and the implementation of the protocol can change with time.

CONFIGURATIONS

The CPU board IP address is configured in PM5 -> Hardware and Limits -> IP Addresses.

VIRTUAL TERMINALS

Definition
A virtual terminal (so called because the terminal does not physically exist) is not visible and can only
be managed from a CSTA application. Created using MMC-PC (Expert View), it is assigned an internal
directory number and has the same characteristics as a Reflexes set.

An Alcatel OmniPCX Office system can have a maximum of 24 virtual terminals.

Description
A virtual terminal can receive internal and external calls. Incoming calls can be answered via CSTA
service requests; outgoing calls are also made in response to a CSTA service request.

A virtual terminal can form part of hunting group or an attendant (operator) group.

Default parameter setting:

- intercom profile (one resource key for each network access)


- 2 RGM keys for local calls
- 1 dedicated key for outgoing calls

A virtual terminal can have a maximum of 104 keys.

Configuration
- To create virtual terminals (max. 24) – MMC-PM5 (Expert view) only:
Subscribers -> Subscriber List -> Add -> Custom. Set: Add -> Virtual Terminals -> specify
the number of virtual terminals you want to create.

The system assigns the available directory numbers to the virtual terminals.
All the set parameters (accessible by Subscribers -> Subscriber List -> Details), with the excep-
tion of the individual directories and personal codes, can be modified.

2 doorphone types are available, depending on the operating mode used:

- Type A: relay-controlled doorphones (e.g. NPTT)


- Type B: doorphones controlled by MF Q23 signals (e.g. TELEMINI and UNIVERSAL DOORPHONE)

These doorphones are mutually exclusive on the same system. A flag must be placed to define the
operating mode in use.

By MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select:

System Miscellaneous -> Memory Read/Write -> Misc. Labels -> flag DPHMode -> enter 00

A doorphone call is managed in the same way as all internal calls:

- it is indicated on the destination set display as another call


- a doorphone call may be intercepted, forwarded, put in a conference with other correspondents
and camped on if the destination set is busy.

Notas :

The destination of a doorphone call can be an external number (defined using a collective speed dial
number); in this case, the set in question cannot control the door opening mechanism.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


DOORPHONES APPLICATIONS

USING A TELEMINI DOORPHONE

These doorphones must only be connected to a Z station interface.

Basic characteristics of these doorphones:


- recognition of the opening and closing of the loop and passing into conversation.
- no detection of the ringing current (incoming call) except for those that are MF Q23 programma-
ble.
- recognition of MF Q23 signals or tones transmitted by the system (system -> doorphone dialog).
- possibility of configuring a directory nº (programmed in the memory) transmitted to the system.

Several doorphones may be connected to the system; the limit is defined by the maximum number of
analog set interfaces that the system can contain.

A system cannot have TELEMINI and UNIVERSAL doorphones at the same time.

Operating principle
Pressing the doorphone call button sends an MF code (START) which, after validation by the system,
maintains the call and triggers an off-hook signal on the doorphone destination set or group.

There is a specific key for answering the call, while another controls the automatic doorstrike (latch) by
sending an MF code (LOCK).

A single doorphone with doorstrike may be connected to the system.

The system also allows for the connection of 2 doorphones without doorstrikes.

Operating principle
Pressing the doorphone call button triggers a loop on the associated Z terminal. The loop is maintai-
ned by relay 1 on the AFU board until the call is answered. The Z terminal is in immediate selection
mode on the doorphone destination group or terminal.

There is a specific key for answering the call, while another controls the automatic doorstrike (latch)
via relay 2 on the AFU board.

printed on any printer connected to a V24 4083 ASM or 4093 ASY-CTI option on a Reflexes terminal.

It is also possible to display data relating to communication.

Nota : Not all the metering information supplied by the ISVPN+ protocol (operator, node,
services: transit, overflow, ARS, etc.) appears on the tickets; this data can only be
used from within a central management application (Alcatel 4740, 4760 or other).

PRINCIPLES

Meter charging according to the operating phase

Operation Meter charging method


Conversation Metering units received on the line are charged to the subscriber
in conversation with that line.
Park or Hold Metering units received on a parked or holding line are charged
to the subscriber who parked the call.
Retrieve from parking or hold The metering units are charged to whomever activated the ser-
vice. Subsequent metering units are charged to the user who re-
trieved the call.
Automatic forwarding The system does not manage charges for external forwarding;
this is managed by the public network.
Conference Any conference costs are charged to the conference initiator.
Transfer If a transfer takes place on an external call, the cost of the com-
munication is charged to the initial user until the external user is
put through to the new correspondent.

When a call is transferred while ringing or on busy, metering


units are charged to the transfer destination.

No units are charged to the OS when external calls are transfer-


red to a system user; all the metering units are charged to the
destination subscriber.

However, if a call is meant for the OS (by transfer or callback),


the communication is charged to the OS.
Ext/Ext transfer Metering units received after the transfer are charged to the user
who made the second external call.
Transfer failure A callback after a transfer failure is always treated as an inco-
ming communication for the set to which the call is rerouted after
the no-answer time-out.
External forwarding When an internal call is made to a user whose calls are being
diverted to an external number, the metering units are charged
to the forwarded subscriber.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/30


CALL METERING SERVICES APPLICATIONS

DURATION AND COST

Duration

The system counts two types of duration:

- Duration of the communication: this corresponds to the time during which the system considers that
a line is allocated to a subscriber; this accounting occurs after the first switch to conversation mode
by the subscriber with the line.
- Call phase duration: the system counts the call phase duration of an incoming external communi-
cation from the moment when the system detects the call to when the line changes to conversation
with a system terminal. This information is used during external management.

Cost

The cost of a communication is calculated according to the number of units charged:

- The value of the basic metering unit may be constant, regardless of the length of the communica-
tion.
- The value of the basic metering unit may be variable: the cost of the first x metering units is calcu-
lated according to an initial basic metering unit value. As soon as a threshold number of metering
units is reached, the cost is calculated according to a second metering unit value.

Notas :

The software allows the actual duration of the communication to be shown on the metering ticket:

- on receipt of a CONNECT message on digital networks


- on receipt of a polarity inversion or a metering pulse on analog networks.

In all other cases, the duration given is only approximate since it is calculated by an off-hook simulation
mechanism.

Useful parameters for calculating the cost of a communication:

T Value of the basic metering unit before reaching the configured threshold (6 digits in the chosen
monetary unit, of which 0 to 2 are decimals)
- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: Metering -> Metering -> Metering Options for Active

COST OF ISDN SERVICES

Since the costs of some facilities are not transmitted by the public network, it is possible to assign a
given value to the cost meter whenever such a service is activated.

Cost of ISDN services:

T Cost of on-line metering (in metering units) in the case of manual activation (if the network does
not add the cost of the service at the beginning of the communication).
- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: Metering -> Metering -> Metering Options for Active
Currency-> Online Metering

T Cost of user to user signaling (in the chosen monetary unit, 6 digits – of which 0 to 2 are decimal).
- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: Metering -> Metering -> Metering Options for Active
Currency-> User to User Information

T Cost of PCX forwarding (in the monetary unit chosen, 6 digits – of which 0 to 2 are decimal).
- By MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: Metering -> Metering -> Metering Options for Active
Currency-> Diversion Charge Rate

Example of the calculation of the cost of a communication

This example shows the effect of using the "On-line metering" and "UUS" services in terms of commu-
nication costs.

Parameters configured:

- basic metering unit value: 1.70 F


- threshold: 1 metering unit
- second basic metering unit value after threshold: 2 F
- cost of on-line metering: 4 metering units
- cost of UUS: 5.10 F

Example of a statement:

A100 --> N01 23/10/96 08:31 00:00:08 8 ST TI 00388677700............


14.500

The 8 metering units are made up as follows:

- 1 metering unit for the call; cost = 1.70 F


- 4 metering units for activation of the on-line metering; cost = 7.70 F (1 x 1.70 F + 3 x 2 F)
- 3 metering units for UUS (number of metering units =UUS/first basic metering unit value cost, i.e.
5.10/1.70 = 3); cost = 5.10 F

is activated on subscription to the network operator.

TOTAL COST or COST INDICATION on request (call by call) signifies that the complementary service
is activated by system configuration (MMC) or by activation from an S0 set.
+ CS signifies that the cost of complementary services (UUS, terminal forwarding) is managed by the
system (-CS if not).
At each automatic or manual activation of an ON-LINE METERING request, a charge unit is assigned
to the caller.

- User to User Signaling (I)


The cost of this service is programmable by MMC.
It does not depend on the length of the message. It is assigned as soon as the UUS is transmitted
(even if the called party has not answered). The cost is assigned to the user who initiated the call:
it therefore only applies to outgoing calls.
Note: During such a call, the cost of outgoing and incoming messages is assigned to the initiating
user.
- Terminal forwarding or external forwarding (R)
A ticket or statement is printed whenever this feature is activated or deactivated.

BEARER SERVICES

One of the metering ticket fields mentions the "bearer service" used for the communication.

The following bearer services are provided:


- ST: voice, group 3 facsimile, teletext and videotex type services.
- T+: group 4 facsimile, transparent data transmission.

METERING COUNTERS

Description of the counters

The recording of the number of metering units and the cost of communications is done by 12 counters,
distributed as follows:

- 10 set counters:
- 2 adding counters (one for the number of metering units and one for the cost):
- read only
- no reset possible
- the number of metering units displayed returns to zero when the maximum number is reached
- 8 partial counters (4 pulse meters, 4 cost meters) according to the on-line services defined:
- read only
- reset possible by MMC
- the storage capacity of these counters is 65535 metering units
- for a non S0 set, there is only one pulse and cost meter.
- 2 line counters:
- one partial pulse meter which can be reset
- one adding pulse meter which cannot be reset
- the storage capacity of these counters is 4 thousand million metering units.

All of these counters can be read from MMC-Station or from MMC-PM5 (the updating of metering
counters at MMC-PM5 level can only be done during a PCX -> PC backup in a new file).

This is used to temporarily store the different messages (output terminal not available, several simul-
taneous messages, etc.).

The maximum number of tickets or statements that can be stored is 1000.

As soon as the programmed threshold has been reached, an alarm is generated alerting the user
(message in the call history + flashing of the operator LED).

When the buffer memory is full, any new information is lost.

XON/XOFF TRANSMISSION PROTOCOL

When the printer is ready to print, it transmits an XON control character. The data received is stored
on a buffer. If there are only a certain number of bytes available on this buffer, the printer will transmit
XOFF. It continues to receive characters and print before transmission halt. When part of the buffer is
released, it transmits XON. The printer also transmits XOFF in the event of the following problems:
printer off-line, no more paper, paper jam, etc.. It transmits XON when these problems have been re-
solved.

Notas : The printer DTR signal is connected to the interface CTS signal if XON is not received.

102 (7): Signal Ground (SG)

Reference potential for the junction circuits.

103 (2): Transmitting Data (TD)

The data signals from the DTE are transmitted to the DCE on this circuit.

104 (3): Receiving Data (RD)

The data signals from the DCE are transmitted to the DTE on this circuit.

105 (4): Request To Send (RTS)

This circuit commands the DCE to prepare to transmit on the data channel.
Closed status forces the DCE into transmission mode.
Open status forces the DCE into non transmission mode on the data channel once all the data trans-
ferred on circuit 103 has been transmitted.
When connecting a DTE without a circuit 105, you should loop circuits 105 and 106 on the DCE soc-
ket.

106 (5): Clear To Send (CTS)

This circuit indicates whether the DCE is ready to receive data signals on circuit 104 and to transmit
them on the data channel.
Closed status indicates that the DCE is ready to receive data signals from the DTE on circuit 103.
Open status indicates that the DCE is not ready to receive data signals from the DTE on circuit 103.
In full-duplex mode, this circuit, in association with circuit 105, enables flux control during the data
transfer phase. Closed status means that the remote unit authorizes transmission.

107 (6): Data Set Ready (DSR)

The closure of this circuit indicates that the DCE is ready to operate. This acknowledges the data chan-
nel trunk seizure.
In addition to the trunk seizure, this circuit indicates that the DCE is ready to exchange other signals to
trigger the data exchange (initialize the dialog).

108/1 (20): Connect data set to line (CDSL)

This signal, transmitted by the DTE, forces the DCE to connect to the data channel.
Incoming call: As a general rule, the DTE emits this signal in response to an incoming call defined by
the closure of circuit 125 on the DCE. The DCE then closes circuit 107 as soon as the line is seized,
which triggers the dialog initialization phase. This circuit enables the DTE to remain in control of the
response to incoming calls, postponing or barring trunk seizures during critical operating phases.
Outgoing call: The closed status of this circuit can be used to initialize an outgoing direct call with an
automatic call DCE.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 27/30


CALL METERING SERVICES APPLICATIONS

108/2 (20): Data Terminal Ready (DTR)

The DTE closes this circuit to tell the DCE it is ready to operate.
Incoming call: closing circuit 108/2 authorizes the DCE to take an incoming call. The DTE is advised
accordingly by the closure of circuit 107 to indicate the trunk seizure. The dialog initialization phase
now begins.
Outgoing call: the outgoing call is initialized between the DTE and the DCE by a local dialog exchan-
ged on circuits 103 and 104.

109 (8): Data Carrier Detect (DCD)

Closing this circuit indicates that the carrier signal received on the data channel meets the relevant spe-
cifications.
This circuit can also be used in the closed state for DTE-DCE data exchanges when programming or
controlling serial automatic call DCEs.

125 (22): Ring Indicator (RI)

This circuit is closed to tell the DTE that a call signal has been received by the DCE.

141 (18): Local Loop (LL)

This circuit controls type 3 test loops in the DCE.


The closure of the circuit loops the DCE transmission channel back to the reception channel, on the
data channel side. On detecting that circuit 142 is closed, the DTE can then, in full-duplex mode, test
the DCE transmission interfaces. This looping function is not yet available in the current state of deve-
lopment of the product.

142 (25): Test Indicator (TI)

The closure of circuit 142 indicates that the DCE is in test mode, which precludes any transmission with
a remote DTE.

The Alcatel 4740/4760 network Management Center has been designed to enable telephone network
managers to manage, administer and optimize one or several Alcatel OmniPCX Office communica-
tion systems remotely.

ENVIRONMENT

Connecting remote Alcatel OmniPCX Office systems (Management Center subscribers)

All remote Alcatel OmniPCX Office subscribed systems managed by the same Management Center
are connected to the public network (PSTN or ISDN) through analog trunk lines or via T0 (2 B-chan-
nels), T2 or E1 accesses (30 B-channels).

Notas : ANALOG NMC:

The TL must be configured with Polarity Inversion or Detection of Busy Tone to release the modem (the
Management Center being the master of the communication).

Connecting the Management Center

The Alcatel 4760 station is connected to the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system by an Ethernet link (the
client LAN, ISDN or V34 modem).

dows to set the network management parameters. To access the NMC home window from within the
main menu:

Select the Network Management Control menus, -> the following sub-menus are proposed:
Network Management, Urgent alarms, Recall/Authorized Callers

Attention :

Programming the authorized callers also affects access to the system by NMC, as well as remote access
by PM5.

"NETWORK MANAGEMENT" SUB-MENU

Network Management Active

Check the box to activate the central management feature (this avoids starting up the management
feature before the end of the system configuration). By default, the feature is inhibited.

General

- NMC N° for automatic alarm reporting (outside NMC session): number in the Management Center
numbering plan to dial for automatic alarm reporting if no NMC session is in progress.
- NMC Connectivity Mode: this field defines the connectivity mode.
- PCX Identification: this field, with a maximum of 30 characters, states the name of the remote
system. The name is defined by the Management Center; it cannot be modified by PM5 (Expert
View).

Notas :

The fields which are not modifiable by PM5 (Expert View) are defined either by the system or by the
Management Center; thus, as a minimum, an "on-line" connection with the remote system is required
so that these fields can be exploited.

Call Accounting

- Metering activated for: activation of metering depending on the type of call: the following choices
are available:
- no call
- incoming calls
- outgoing calls
- incoming and outgoing calls (default value)
- Threshold for alarm activation(default 80 %): 100 % = 1000 to 30000 tickets depending on the
software license and hardware configuration. When the assigned threshold is reached, an alarm
is sent to the Management Center (on condition that automatic alarm reporting is activated and
the 'NMC_THRESHOLD_METERING_TBL' alarm is configured as urgent); the Management Center
reacts to the alarm and connects up to the remote system in order to collect and void the metering
tickets.

"Alarm Reporting": (Only visible after clicking the "Part 2" button

Alarm reporting enables the remote system to inform the Management Center as soon as an abnormal
event arises with the PCX.

- Automatic Alarm Reporting check the box to activate automatic alarm reporting. By default, this
feature is inhibited.
- Reaction on erroneous call (for example, the call number does not correspond to that of the Ma-
nagement Center):
- Time before retry (min): waiting time, in minutes, before trying again (value between 1 and
12 minutes inclusive, by default: 12 minutes)
- Max. number of retries: maximum number of call backs (a single call back authorized)
- Reaction on non-answered calls (for example, the Management Center has not answered, as all
the accesses are busy):
- Time before retry (min): waiting time, in minutes, before trying again (value between 1 and
12 minutes inclusive, by default: 12 minutes)
- Max. number of retries: maximum number of call backs(value between 1 and 99, by de-
fault: 50)
- Threshold for alarm reporting activation (by default, when the threshold is reached, an alarm is
sent to the Management Center). The Management Center is connected to the remote system auto-
matically so as to deduct the alarm information:
- History table: by default 80 % (100 % = 400 history messages)
- HW anomaly table: hardware messages, by default 80 % (100 % = 200 hardware messages)
- Urgent Alarm Table: by default 80 % (100 % = 200 urgent alarm messages)

MULTIPOINT T0
DEFINITIONS

Point to Point link: a Point to Point link is a digital access to the public network used exclusively by
Alcatel OmniPCX Office. The TEI settings are generally fixed, as there is only one terminal (Alcatel Om-
niPCX Office) for this access, but they can also be dynamic.

Point to Multipoint link: a Point to Multipoint link is a digital access to the public network shared by
several terminals. In this type of configuration, each terminal is identified by its TEI and dedicated DDI
sequence. The TEI management mode can be fixed or dynamic, depending on the public operator.

Both types of link can be supported simultaneously on the same system. The TEI management mode
(fixed or automatic) is configured separately for each access.

Example of the environment


This example illustrates both connection types: Point to Point and Point to Multipoint.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


POINT TO POINT / POINT TO APPLICATIONS
MULTIPOINT T0

DYNAMIC TEI

This feature assigns a TEI automatically to each T0 bus (mainly assured by the public network on mul-
tipoint accesses).

At each connection and at each reset, (cold or warm), each T0 "asks" the network to allocate it a TEI;
this procedure is carried out by sending 2 level 2 messages: the "Identity Request" message sent by the
system to the network, then the "Identity Assigned" message sent by the network. The value assigned is
stored by the system until the next reset.

Possible TEI values (in accordance with ETS300 125)

- 0 to 63: fixed TEIs (values used on the system side)


- 64 to 126: automatic TEIs (values used on the network operator side)
- 127: value reserved for management operations
When changing from a digital access with fixed TEI management to automatic TEI manage-
ment, it is essential to perform a warm reset so that the PCX sends the TEI allocation request
to the public exchange; if not, the TEI management on the system will be unstable.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

- By default, the T0 accesses are in Point to Point with automatic TEI management for all countries.
- Once the system has been configured for automatic TEI and reset, the automatic TEI request is sent

PERMANENT LOGICAL LINK (PLL)
8

The Permanent Logical Link (PLL) service handles the simultaneous bi-directional transfer of data fra-
mes between a T interface (T0 or T2) and an S0 interface (ePLL) or between 2 S0 interfaces (iPLL), each
interface being one extremity of a semi-PLL with:

- either a public network Packet Access Point (PAP) on the T interface side

- or an S0 terminal connected to the S0 bus on the S0 interface side.

The data packets are exchanged on this link in a transparent way through the D channels of these ac-
cesses.

The rate for this type of data transmission is limited to 9600 bps.

The link between the 2 Alcatel OmniPCX Office interfaces that connect the 2 semi-PLLs is established
by configuring a routing table.

The S0 terminals are connected to 4084 or 4094 interfaces.

DEFINITIONS

- SAPI: Service Access Point Identification; the value in the SAPI field identifies the type of information
transported by the data link and, for this reason, identifies the targeted access point, source or fra-
me destination. By default, a SAPI value of 16 is assigned to links carrying X25 type packets to the

- TEI: Terminal Extremity Identification

EXTERNAL PLLs

The system makes it possible to establish one or several external PLLs (ePLLs) between T accesses of
the system and a data network access port and also to extend them to S0 accesses according to the
following rules:

- each ePLL associates the trinome [Interface T, SAPI (16), TEI] with an [Interface S0, SAPI (16), TEI]
trinome.
- a T or S0 interface can be used for several ePLLs (max. 4) by changing the TEI value.

APPLICATIONS PERMANENT LOGICAL LINK (PLL)

CONFIGURATION

Preliminary

Before configuring the PLL, the installer must:

- define the S0 and T0 accesses


- check that the interfaces to be used are present in the "Subscribers/Basestations List" screen (for S0
interfaces) and the "External Lines" screens (for T interfaces)

Creating a PLL

- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View), select: Subscribers Misc. -> Permanent Logical Link

To create a PLL, proceed as follows:

- choose the PLL caller from the list of declared accesses presented in the left-hand part of the win-
dow.
- enter the TEI of the caller PLL (SAPI = 16 is displayed, this value is not modifiable):
- for an external access, the TEI is given on subscription by the public network operator and is
between 0 and 63 inclusive.
- for an internal access, the TEI is between 1 and 63 inclusive (depending on the configuration
of the terminals).
- choose the PLL destination from the list of declared accesses presented in the right-hand part of the
window.
- enter the TEI of the destination PLL (follow the same procedure as for the TEI of the caller PLL)
- click Add to establish the connection. If all the checks are OK (see below), the connections are ad-
ded to the list of existing PLLs.

Checks

- The system can contain a maximum of 32 PLLs.


- The system cannot contain PLLs between 2 external accesses.
- The caller and the destination of the same PLL cannot be one and the same (same physical address
and same TEI).
- 4 TEIs per basic access (S0/T0), 16 per primary access (T2); 2 PLLs associated with different acces-
ses can have the same TEI (there is no check at MMC-PM5 level).

Overflow

It is possible to overflow onto a second destination if the initial destination is busy by configuring the
same caller with 2 different called parties.

Nota : Once declared, an ePLL or iPLL is bi-directional, i.e. either interface can initiate a call.

INTRODUCTION

Alcatel OmniTouch Call Center Office is a call center application of Alcatel OmniPCX Office and is
used to automatically distribute calls to the most appropriate agent sets, while also managing call
queuing.

Alcatel OmniTouch Call Center Office is made up of the following modules:

- Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) for the distribution of calls. The Automatic Call Distribution
(ACD) application is used to manage a large number of calls using a small number of agents
through control of flows, proportionate distribution of calls, and queuing calls, between agents.
The caller is immediately connected to an agent or to the most appropriate service, the agents
being identified by skills group.
- Agent application and configuration of the agent application to optimize management of
agents, their activity and organization into skills groups.
- Supervision module.

- Traffic statistics module allowing the supervisor to optimize management of agent groups.

The Alcatel OmniTouch Call Center Office application is used to:

- improve call distribution and processing,

- process a larger number of calls,

- improve the output and efficiency of human resources,

- supervise service quality,

- anticipate incoming calls using the statistics module,

- minimize operating costs.

Remarque : In this document, the term ACD, Automatic Call Distribution, is synonymous with call
center.

OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE GENERAL PRESENTATION

Terminology and capacities

- Maximum number of agents: the maximum number of agents is 32 regardless of the hardware
platforms (business or e-business) or packages (Welcome Office or Welcome Office Pro) used. An
agent can use any terminal on the system.

- Maximum number of agents logged in: an agent must be logged in to a terminal on the system
in order to use the call center services. The maximum number of logged in agents is 10 or 20 de-
pending on the package selected: a maximum of 10 logged in agents with Welcome Office and
20 logged in agents with Welcome Office Pro.

- Login mode: agents can be logged in to a terminal on the system in two different ways:

- fixed mode: by configuration. In this case, the agent is permanently logged in to the same ter-
minal.

- dynamic mode: the agent logs in to a free terminal of his/her choice using the agent appli-
cation (free seating operation). The agent logs out and automatically frees up the terminal by
leaving the agent application.

- Agent Application Licences: a license is required for each active connection of the agent appli-
cation. The number of licenses necessary corresponds to the maximum number of simultaneous
connections required. The maximum number of licenses possible depends on the package (Wel-
come Office or Welcome Office Pro) and the hardware platform (business or e-business) selected.

- Supervisor Application Licences: a license is required for each active connection of the supervi-
sor application. The number of licenses necessary corresponds to the maximum number of simul-

Call distribution
Calls coming into Alcatel OmniTouch Call Center Office are classified in accordance with:

- the priority assigned to the skills group and the order in which calls arrive, for subsequent distribu-
tion to the agent sets,
- the ACD groups,

8/12 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File
1

OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE GENERAL PRESENTATION

- the traffic load fairly distributed between the agent sets.

Incoming calls transferred to a skills group are distributed:

- in the chronological order in which they arrive on the sets assigned to this group,
- by the assignment rank of the agents in the group requested (sequential distribution only),
- in accordance with the distribution mode programmed in the group.

Queue

A call is placed in a queue once the welcome announcement has been played if all agents assigned
to the group requested are busy.

Calls are placed in the queue based on the chronological order in which they arrive, using the principle
of "FIFO" (First In, First Out).

Calls leave the queue in chronological order. The call is automatically distributed and presented to an
available agent without waiting for the end of the announcement if an agent becomes free while the
queue announcement is being broadcast. The dissuasion announcement is broadcast for subsequent
calls if the queue is saturated.

The maximum number of calls waiting is 8 (8 ACD ports).

Remarques :

- If the ACD group is open and no agents are active (logged in), the first call to this group will be
routed to the transfer number (if entered). If this is not the case, it will be routed to the dissuasion
message and then released. Subsequent calls will then be placed directly in the queue.

- If the ACD group is saturated, overflow is possible to another ACD group (no cascading).

- If the agent does not answer, another agent will be selected if available; if no agent is available,
that agent will continue to be called.

- If other agents are logged in to the group, several scenarios are possible:

- the "no answer" of the agent means they automatically go "off duty" (the parameters of this can
be defined)
- the agent goes "off duty" (or no answer in terms of the supervision status)
- all the other agents have gone off duty (no answer); in this case, the transfer number is tried.

Subsequent calls will be automatically placed in the queue until an agent comes on duty.

Core recommendations

Certain rules should be observed in order to guarantee that the system is as user-friendly as possible:

- Take the caller into account when thinking of an ACD group.

- In a voice menu, there must be no more than 4 options and the total tree must have no more than
2 levels.

- Voice messages must be short (< 15s).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 9/12


GENERAL PRESENTATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

- When setting up the ACD group mailboxes, ask the people receiving the calls (operators, sales de-
partments, technicians, etc.) what the main requests from callers are.

- Do not forget to define what happens outside working hours and during the weekends.

- Do not forget to define what happens when an internal telephone is not answered.

- Start by drawing the total structure on a piece of paper based on the fixed tree of the ACD and the
relations between the automated attendant, mailboxes and info-text if necessary.

- At each stage, think carefully about the content of the voice message concerned.

- If all ACD ports are busy, calls coming in from the outside receive the ring back tone, until an ACD
port is free¡ This operation must be taken into account when defining the ACD.

agents are on/off duty, temporarily absent or performing clerical work are programmed in the
internal numbering plan of Alcatel OmniPCX Office and correspond to the cyclical groupings
containing the 8 ACD ports. The statuses are:
- on_duty: the agent is assigned to an ACD group.
- off_duty: the agent has withdrawn from all groups.
- temporary absence: the agent has temporarily gone off duty for a break. At the end of
this break, agents must come back on duty so that they are available again to process a
new call. Periods of temporary absence are not considered as work/service time.
- temporary work: the agent temporarily withdraws from the call distribution chain to per-
form an operation (fill out an information screen for example) following a call for example.
At the end of this clerical work period, agents must come back on duty so that they are
available again to process a new ACD call. Clerical work periods are considered as work
time for call distribution criteria.
- Area 3: shows the cyclical group number available for the call center and the associated direct
dialing-in (DDI) number(s). If the DDI number is entered, it will be automatically created in a
line of the Public Numbering Plan of Alcatel OmniPCX Office. For each DDI number created,
a new group (containing the 8 ACD ports) will be automatically generated.

Generation of ACD profiles (ACD Profiles tab)


Alcatel OmniTouch Call Center Office allows you to manage two types of ACD key:

- Keys for the operating status of agents corresponding to the groups previously created.

- Supervision keys for the mailboxes of ACD groups.

Once the General tab has been confirmed, the ACD profiles must be generated if you want to use
them.

1. Click the ACD Profiles tab. To generate the profiles, select Yes, Regenerate the Profiles as
Shown Below.

2. Click OK to confirm the new profiles.

Remarque : - The definition of the profiles obtained is predefined in the system. However, it is still
possible to modify them through standard management of profiles in PM5 / List of Sets
/ Profiles.

7. Follow the same procedure to assign supervisor profiles.

By default, a set with an agent profile is configured with 2 RGX keys, 2 RSB keys and 4 status keys. A
set with a supervisor profile is configured with 2 RGX keys, 2 RSB keys and 8 keys for supervising mail-
boxes (plus 4 agent keys if these have been programmed).

Important:

Assigning an ACD profile to a set has the effect of:

- deleting all the keys previously programmed


- programming the following keys: 2 RGX, 2 RSB, 4 CTI and/or 8 voicemails for the virtual terminals
of the ACD group mailboxes
- deleting internal dynamic transfers and inhibiting any type of internal transfer.

Remarque : ACD calls do not support any type of call transfer or interception.

Manual assignment of keys


To assign an agent key manually, do the following:

1. Open the menu PM5 > List of Sets/Terminals and select the set whose keys you want to modify.
Click Details, then Keys. A window displaying the keys of the set opens.

2. Click on the button of the key to be modified.

3. Select the Function Key type of key.

4. Click OK to confirm.

Agent keys correspond to the following CTI function keys:

- Application 12, service 1 for "on duty" status,

- Application 12, service 2 for "off duty" status,

- Application 12, service 3 for "clerical work" status,

- Application 12, service 4 for "temporary absence" status,

For the Supervision keys of mailboxes, simply create Voicemail function keys for the virtual terminal
corresponding to the mailbox of the ACD group.

Remarque : the assignment of profiles to sets is not checked (no checking of whether the set is an
agent set or not).

LINE CONFIGURATION

The lines table is used to associate caller numbers(CLI) and/or called numbers (DDI number, cyclical
group number) with the different ACD groups (1 to 8) and agent status functions (on duty, off duty,
clerical work or temporary absence).

When defining the system parameters, the complete table will be filled in either by importing the data
collection file, or manually, on a number by number basis.

It is also possible to use the line table to enter VIP caller numbers in order to route them to a priority
ACD group.

It is possible to use private groupings to call the different ACD groups in order to limit access, the num-
ber of calls waiting, or the traffic of each ACD group; this is done by simply adjusting the number of
ACD ports contained in the different groupings.

Line configuration
The parameters of lines can be configured to make an application number correspond to:

- a "Caller" number,
- a "Called" number (DDI),
- a combination of the two numbers.

For example, it is possible make access to each agent group correspond to:

- a "Caller" number depending on the country the call comes from (for example, depending on the
language of the caller);
- a given "Called" number, in order to reach the correct ACD group (corresponding to a given ser-
vice);
- a combination of both (country + service).
Remarque : Several numbers can correspond to the same application.
1000 different numbers can be assigned in this way.

This list is created during the data collection process.

3. To fill in or modify the fields, double-click the area of the table to be modified in order to access
the corresponding data entry area. The data entry window will differ depending on the column se-
lected.

- Caller N° Starting With (CLI) data entry window

The number on each line of the table can be a complete number, but it is also possible to make
selections of blocks of digits in order to:

- analyze the country code (from 1 to 3 digits on the left),

- analyze the region code (from one to six digits depending on the country of installation),

- analyze the complete number, or part of the number (for example, the last digit on the right
to distribute traffic between groups of agents).

Remarques :- Numbers are analyzed from left to right.


- The maximum number length is 20 digits.
- The character X can be used as a joker.
- Called N° Ending With (DDI) data entry window

Numbers are analyzed from left to right.

If a number received is not shown in the list, an error message appears in the Events file. The
server does not answer and the caller hears the ringback tone.

- Application: N° + Heading data entry window

From the list of applications, choose the one which corresponds to the number received. The
same number received can be assigned to two different applications. Calls will be routed as a
priority to the application registered at the highest level of the table.

Analysis process

A call entering the server is characterized by the pairing [DDIr - CLIr]. The output event of the
process described here is either the Application Number, or an execution command taking the
physical access configuration into account.

Attention : the comparison stops as soon as the first entry satisfying the condition is found. As
a result, it is important to fill in the table starting with particular cases (the longest
numbers) and ending with general cases (the shortest numbers).

The analysis process is as follows:

- 1st operation: CLIr/CLIs and DDIr/DDIs comparison. The system searches in the principal
table for the entry matching the condition: CLIr = *CLIs and DDIr = *DDIs

If it exists, it is unique. In this case, the output event of the process is the application number
associated with this pairing.

If it does not exist, the system moves to the second operation.

- 2nd operation: comparison of CLIr/CLIs and DDIs not entered. The system searches in the

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/20


CONFIGURATION OF THE ACD OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

principal table for the entry matching the condition: CLIr = *CLIs and DDIs = *0

If it exists, it is unique. In this case, the output event of the process is the application number
associated with this pairing.

If it does not exist, the system moves to the third operation.

- 3rd operation: comparison of DDIr/DDIs and CLIs not entered. The system searches in the
principal table for the entry matching the condition: DDIr = *DDIs and CLIs = *0.

If it exists, it is unique. In this case, the output event of the process is the application number
associated with this pairing.

If it does not exist, the output event of the process is a command taking the physical access
configuration into account.

Attention : this is not a case of simple equality. The conditions of equality are outlined below.

Method for comparing numbers

- CLI:

Condition 1: condition based on content (the number). The CLIr/CLIs comparison is made
starting with the digit of the greatest weight. It continues digit by digit and ends by compa-
ring the digit of the least weight of the shortest number.

The condition CLIr=CLIs is fulfilled if condition 1 is fulfilled. In other words, there are no
conditions related to the format. As a result, there can be no equality if one of the Network
or System parameters is not entered.

- DDI:

Condition 1: condition based on content (the number). The DDIr/DDIs comparison is made
starting with the digit of the least weight. It continues digit by digit and ends by comparing
the digit of the greatest weight of the shortest number.

The condition DDIr=DDIs is fulfilled if condition 1 is fulfilled. In other words, there are no
conditions related to the format. As a result, there can be no equality if one of the Network
or System parameters is not entered.

CONFIGURATION OF THE ACD OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

CONFIGURATION OF AGENTS AND GROUPS

The agent is characterized by his/her phone set and the operating status of the set. In order to optimize
their management, agents are organized into groups (skills groups for example).

Assignment of agents to groups and operating status


An agent can belong to one or more groups. An agent can have one of the 4 operating statuses below:

1. On duty: the agent is assigned to an ACD group.

2. Off duty: the agent has withdrawn from all ACD groups.

3. Temporary absence: the agent has temporarily gone off duty for a break. At the end of this
break, agents must come back on duty so that they are available again to process a new ACD call.

Periods of temporary absence are not considered as work/service timein the statistics.

4. Clerical work: following a conversation, the agent may need to assess the call and fill out an in-
formation screen for example; he/she temporarily withdraws from the call distribution chain.

Once this work is complete, agents must come back on duty so that they are available again to
process a new call.

Clerical work periods are considered as work time for the call distribution criteria in the statistics.

Remarque : For the statistics, the "idle time" is processed differently, depending on whether the
agent is temporarily absent or is doing clerical work,

- if the agent is temporarily absent, the activity time is taken into account from the last
ACD conversation (when the agent hangs up),

- if the agent is doing clerical work, the activity time is taken into account from when the
agent comes back on duty following this period of clerical work.

The PC-based agent application provides agents with an interface to:

- change their status (on duty, off duty, temporary absence, clerical work) via an intuitive interface,

- access functions such as:

- real-time observation of statistics,


- definition of call types,
- multi-skills management (agents belonging to several ACD groups),
- free seating,
- customer information screen pop-ups.

For more information, refer to the "Agent application" chapter.

This section describes the parameters that must be defined to declare the agents and the group(s) they
belong to.

General tab
1. Click the General tab. This tab is used to configure the call center general parameters. These pa-
rameters are common to the 8 groups.

2. Enter the following parameters:

- Value of queue threshold T1 and T2

Threshold configuration is used to define service quality criteria. These values are used in the
supervisor application to indicate, in real-time, the number of calls in the groups waiting for a
period of time longer than T1 and T2. These values are also used in the publication of statistics.

- Idle time following processing of a call

Minimum time between two consecutive calls for the same agent.

- Maximum ringing time

If an agent does not answer within the period shown, the call is routed to another agent or re-
turned to the queue.

This time delay is also used when transferring a call to an internal or external called party or to
a mailbox. If the called party does not answer within this time delay, the call is automatically
returned to the queue (if the group is closed, the call is deterred or if the caller leaves the queue).

- Time delay before overload messages flash

Time period before additional indication (change in color) of overload messages of the groups
displayed in the supervisor application.

- Length of calculation period for agent activity rates

Possibility of printing activity rates every hour or every half-hour within the supervisor applica-
tion.

- Agents that do not answer are automatically removed

An agent not answering is removed from the ACD group either for 10 seconds (see the fol-
lowing parameter), or permanently. In the latter case, he/she must be put back "on duty".

- Duration of an agent's temporary removal after failure to answer

This parameter determines the period of time for which an agent who fails to answer is removed
from the ACD group.

- Waiting begins before overflow time delay

Possibility of starting the statistics counter related to customer waiting times as soon as the call
center answers or after the overflow time delay of the call.

- ACD call in the event of dissuasion: three choices are possible:

Broadcast the group dissuasion announcement.

Place the call in the group mailbox. For more information, see the chapter on Installation
and start-up.

Transfer to an internal or external number.

- ACD call and caller leaving the queue via the star key.

If the caller leaves the queue by pressing the star key and if the option Place Call in Group
Mailbox is checked, the call will be transferred here. If the option Place Call in Group
Mailbox is not checked, pressing the star key will have no effect.

and start-up.
Transfer to an internal or external number.
1.3.b. Click OK to validate the data or Apply to stay in the same screen, or Cancel if you do
not want to keep the changes.

1.4. Queue Length: used to define the length of the queue.

The length is equal to N x k where,

- N = number of agents logged in to a terminal in the group. For more information, see the
section on Definition and terminology.
- k = coefficient between 0 and 9, in steps of 0.1. The default value is: 0.5.

The queue is considered to be saturated when the condition N x k is met.

Remarque : if N x k is not a whole number, the value of the queue is rounded up to the next
whole number.

Exemple : if 3 agents are logged in, regardless of their status (1 agent on duty and 2 agents
off duty) in the group, and if K=0.5, the length of the queue is: 0.5 x 3 =1.5, i.e. 2
agents.

1.5. Search Mode: used to define the method for distributing calls within the group. Select the type
of search from the drop-down menu. The following choices are possible:

- longest idle time: call assigned to the agent whose last ACD call took place the furthest
time ago.

Remarque : non-ACD calls and the status temporary absence are counted as "idle time".

- Fixed: call assigned to the first free agent based on the priority rank of the agent in the
group.

- Rotating: call assigned through cyclical distribution.

1.6. Overflow Group: used to define the group (1 to 8) called in the event of overflow. Enter the
number of another group.

The time period is used to define after how many seconds the overflow function starts.

The time delay is enabled if no agent is free in the group requested.

Remarque : - this function allows a group which is underloaded to receive calls from a group
which is overloaded.

- If overflow occurs, the calls continue to stay in the queue of the group initially re-
quested.

- From a statistical point of view, calls are always assigned to the group initially re-

quested.

Exemple : group 2 is specified as the overflow for group 1:

- when a call arrives for group 1 and if no agent is free in this group, a free agent
is searched for in group 2. If no agents in groups 1 and 2 are free, the call is placed
in the queue of group 1.

- when an agent in group 2 becomes free, if no calls are waiting for this group, the
calls waiting for group 1 overflow to group 2.

1.7. Transfer Number: used to define which set should be warned when an abnormal status oc-
curs in a group. Enter a number with no more than 5 digits in this field. The transfer number
can be:

- any internal set number (preferably, the supervisor number of the application),
- an abbreviated number of Alcatel OmniPCX Office.

When an abnormal status is detected (group open and no agent on duty), the first call is routed
to the transfer number, and the following calls are routed to the queue. It is the responsibility
of the supervisor to re-establish normal operation.

Remarque : If the transfer number is busy or does not answer, the call is returned to the queue.

1.8. Priority Order: used to define the priority group when simultaneous calls are received or
when calls are waiting and agents belong to several groups. Enter a number between 1 and 8.

The same level of priority can be assigned to several groups. In this case, searches for available
agents for waiting calls are conducted using the criteria of maximum queue time only.

1.9. Forced status: used to define the status of the group regardless of the status of the open/
closed parameters of the time slot. Select the status from the drop-down menu. The available
choices are:

- Closed: forces the group to be closed (for example, in the evening before the normal clo-
sing time).

- Open: forces the group to stay open (for example, in the evening after the normal closing
time).

- Automatic: allows the system to return to the criteria defined in the time slot.

Remarque : switching from one status to another is never automatic; a command to return to
normal mode must be sent in order to re-examine the normal open and closed pa-
rameters again.

Forcing to open or closed status is indicated on the Observation screens by the letter M for Ma-
nual. The group statuses are:

- OPEN M: group forced open


- CLOSED M: group forced closed
- OPEN: group open (in accordance with time slot or contact)

40 messages are available (5 for each ACD group). Each message is identified by a file made up
of 3 figures x, y and z and with the extension .wav:

- x corresponds to the number of the ACD group (1 to 8)


- y is always equal to 0
- z corresponds to the message of the ACD group (1 to 5)

The messages types are as follows:

- 1 corresponds to the welcome message


- 2 to queue message 1
- 3 to queue message 2
- 4 to the dissuasion message
- 5to the closure message
For example, file 305.wav corresponds to the closure message for group 3.

Remarque : on starting the ACD, the system does not understand any messages. To conduct tests,
it is therefore essential to load the default ACD messages.

4. Select the announcements and click the => button. The messages selected are transferred to the
call center.

5. Click OK. The ACD Voice Messages window disappears.

AGENT APPLICATION
5

The agent application is a user interface available on the agent's PC. By associating agents' telephone
sets with their PCs, they have a user-friendly working environment in which to manage their sets.

Agents can use this window to more easily declare the status of their set (on duty, off duty, temporary
absence, clerical work) as well as accessing functions such as real-time observation of statistics, defi-
nition of call types, multi-skills management, free seating or extraction of a customer information
screen.

Introduction to the application

Thanks to a gateway integrated in the call center, each agent PC is in contact with the call center via
the local network. When a call is distributed, the PC starts communicating with the call center. For
example when the set rings, the application knows the number of the caller and the time spent in the
queue, and can display this information on the screen.

Description of functions

The agent application provides three groups of functions:

1. Control functions.

These are used to identify the agent, the status of the agent's set, the skills group to which he/she
belongs, and they also provide information on calls.

2. Statistical functions.

3. Information screen pop-up functions.

CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The control functions are:

- free seating,

- status declaration,

- skills management,

- provision of information on calls.

Free seating

This function is used to identify agents via their identifiers and access codes. This means that any agent
can occupy any position in the call center without having to change any of his/her details.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


AGENT APPLICATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

When a session opens, agents must identify themselves by selecting the identifier assigned to them and
by entering their password. If necessary, they can click the Change button to change their password.

Status declaration

Agents can easily declare the different activity statuses possible:

- On duty: agents are assigned to take calls in the groups which they belong to.

- Clerical work: the agent withdraws temporarily from the call distribution chain. For example,
when the agent is required to perform a task related to the call, such as filling in a form, sending
an e-mail or fax, etc.

- Temporary absence: the agent goes temporarily off duty for a break. Periods of temporary ab-
sence are not considered as work time.

- Off duty: the agent is no longer available to receive ACD calls.

- Information: the information button is used to warn the agent of a change in status or that he/she
has been assigned to a different group, this change being conducted outside the agent application.
The information button flashes to inform the agent of a forced change. To acknowledge the mes-
sage, the agent must click this button.

The call center manager can force the status of an agent. In this case, an icon in the agent application
flashes to show the agent that his/her status has been forced.

Skills management

When they come on duty, users can declare their skills (hotline, purchasing, sales for example). The
call center manages this information dynamically in order to route calls efficiently.

Call information

When the agent's set starts ringing, the application is activated with the data related to the call. The
agent can be provided with the following information:

- Caller number.

- Called number.

- ACD group requested.

- Caller queuing time.

- Conversation time.

- Activation of the customer information pop-up, if the screen pop-up does not appear automatically
or if the pop-up was closed before the end of the conversation.

- Choice of call type.

OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE AGENT APPLICATION

Definition of call types

The call type is noted by the agent processing the call, using coding specified in advance by the call
center manager. The call type can only be noted during the call itself. The agent selects the call type
from a drop-down menu showing the predefined types.

This function is used to improve call analysis and relate calls directly to the activity and profitability of
the call center.

The call center manager can define the call types in the window A.C.D. - General Parameters in the
configuration module menu, in the Types tab. Ten types can be entered, by specifying a number and
heading for each type.

STATISTICS FUNCTIONS
The statistics functions allow the agent to manage his/her work effectively.

Personal data

The agent is provided with counters (counters related to status, call activity rate or distribution by type)
to directly manage his/her work and time.

- Status counter: displayed as a graph, this counter shows the time spent by the agent in the diffe-
rent statuses possible (on duty, clerical work, temporary absence and off duty) since the counter
was last reset and only while the application is running. The data is expressed in minutes. The
agent can reset the counter whenever required, or choose to reset the values whenever he/she lea-
ves the agent application.

- Activity rate: displayed as a graph, this counter shows the time spent by the agent on ACD calls
over the last hour or last half-hour, depending on the parameters configured in the ACD. This rate
is given as a percentage; it can be used to assess whether the agent is receiving too many or too
few calls.

- Call types table: displayed as a table, this information is used to determine the total number of
calls defined by the agent and broken down by call type (maximum of 10). The difference
between the total calls answered and the number of call types defined can be used to determine
the number of calls where the type was not defined. The agent can reset the counter whenever re-
quired, or choose to reset the values whenever he/she leaves the agent application.

Supervision

This function is used to determine the total load of the ACD in real-time. Each agent is both the ma-
nager and supervisor of his/her work. By combining supervision of traffic and declaration of skills, the
agent can directly participate in the smooth running of the ACD and in the smooth flow of his/her traf-
fic, by monitoring changes in indicators.

Statistical indicators provide the following information for each ACD group which the agent is connec-
ted to:

- the number of calls waiting as a function of the wait time for each call,

- the number of calls answered,

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/8


AGENT APPLICATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

- the number of calls which can be held in the queue of each group,

- the status of each group (open, closed, saturated).

List of calls

The list of calls is used to keep a record of all the agent's calls. It allows the agent to accurately monitor
his/her work.

The following call information is provided:

- Caller: number received,

- Called number: number called by the customer,

- Customer code: customer code which may be entered by the agent in the Customer Code field,

- Group: ACD group requested,

- Type: name of the call type,

- Date: date of the call,

- Time: time of the call,

- Conversation: conversation time,

- Queue: time spent in the queue before being connected to the agent.

The list is deleted on a cyclical basis (this option must be defined in the configuration menu of the
ACD), or can be deleted by the agent at any time in the consultation interface.

CUSTOMER INFORMATION SCREEN EXTRACTION FUNCTION


This function allows an agent to extract information on a customer. It is reserved for the call center and
allows telephony-computer interactivity. The agent has three ways of operating, this choice being
made when the system is installed:

Integrated mode: using the built-in tools.

Connected mode: using an application which can be instantiated as a Com Server. For example, with
the applications in the Microsoft Office range, such as Microsoft Outlook.

Specific mode: using a third-party CRM (Customer Relations Management) application.

Integrated mode

The agent application includes a contact management application. This is a database in Microsoft Ac-
cess format which can be shared over a network. The database contains the standard fields for contact
management requirements: name, telephone, address, e-mail, etc. Each customer information screen
can be displayed in HTML format.

Users can add additional fields specific to the management of their area of expertise; these modifica-

4/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File

OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE AGENT APPLICATION

tions do not, however, appear on the information screen.

Agents can be made responsible for updating the database, their writing rights being opened via an
access code. They can then make the information screens available to other agents when the call is
presented.

The database has a direct link with messaging services. An e-mail can be sent to a contact by clicking
on their information screen.

Connected mode

The agent application can be interconnected with message or contact management software such as
Microsoft Outlook.

Connected mode allows execution of a script (Windows Scripting Host) when the call is received and
access to the database. The application is supplied with a default script file which can be changed by
the call center manager. This operating mode is usually used to access a customer database in Out-
look.

If the administrator chooses to use Outlook messaging, the Outlook contact record will appear when
a call is received. To make this interoperational system possible, the application activates the "script"
to run Outlook by sending it the necessary parameters (caller number).

Using the same procedure as in integrated mode, the contact database is directly accessible from the
agent application.

Specific mode

This mode is used to provide interconnection between the agent application and a third-party appli-
cation. This is useful as many companies use their own Customer Relations Management software.

To connect the agent application to another customer application, the call center manager specifies
an application which will be called by the agent application when an ACD call is received. When a call
is assigned to an agent, the associated agent application executes the command line entered in this
section, followed by two parameters specific to the call, the caller number and the number called.

The syntax is as follows:

program [option] /1:caller_number /2:called_number

By default, by way of example, "program [option]" is "Wscript.exe post_it.vbs"

SETTING PREFERENCE PARAMETERS


Preferences allow agents to set the parameters of their working environment. They can:

- Select the language used in the agent application.

- Define whether the customer information screen pops up automatically on the call center or is ac-
tivated by the agent.

- Leave the application always visible in relation to the other applications open on the PC.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/8


AGENT APPLICATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

- Make the application appear in front of all applications already open.

- Place the phone set on duty when the application is launched.

- Reset the counters on leaving the application or whenever required.

- Disconnect on leaving the application.

This parameter is used in free seating scenarios when agents disconnect to leave the application;
this allows them to register their presence on another computer. If they are not disconnected on
leaving the application, a message informs them that they are not disconnected when they identify
themselves on another workstation.

- Select the information screen type: HTML or standard (on the call center).

- Select the graphs to be displayed.

- Reset their counters.

AGENT APPLICATION: CONFIGURATION

The configuration application allows the call center manager to set the parameters of the agent appli-
cation.

STARTING THE APPLICATION

To access configuration of the agent application, a Login window allows the call center manager to
authenticate him/herself. A password is necessary to establish the connection. The default password is
help1954.

CONFIGURATION OF THE AGENT APPLICATION

The call center manager has a password-protected configuration module which is used to change the
different agent application options and assign rights to agents. The configuration menu has three tabs:

- General: used to define preference parameters.

- Colors: used to define the colors used in the display of graphs and counters.

- Agents: used to list all agents.

GENERAL TAB
The general parameters can be divided into three groups:

- Supervisor

The call center manager specifies the language he/she wants to use in the configuration module
and customer information screen manager.

6/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE AGENT APPLICATION

- Agent

List: the call center manager enters the number of days of data which must be saved in the list of
calls. Each agent has a list in which he/she can consult the latest calls. This list is never deleted
(value "0") or is deleted on a cyclical basis. This parameter is the same for all agents.

Activity rate: the call center manager enters the values of the activity rates to be displayed on
agent PCs. These parameters are the same for all agents.

- Customer database

The call center manager enters the mode used to connect to the customer database, this mode
being identical for all agents. The three modes offered are:

- Integrated mode (standard),


- Connected mode (script),

- Specific mode.

For more information on these modes, refer to the section on "Customer information screen extrac-
tion function" in this chapter.

COLORS TAB
The administrator can change the colors of all the graphs made available to agents.

AGENT TAB
By default, the agent application manages 32 ACD agents. Each agent is located by his/her identifier
and name. These parameters can only be changed by the call center manager using the call center
configuration module.

To change Agent Rights, select the ACD agent to be changed and click the Properties button.

STATISTICS AS A PERCENTAGE OR AS AN ABSOLUTE VALUE


Click the Absolute Value tab or the Percentage tab.

Selecting elements to produce statistics

You can request statistics on the following elements:

- Incoming Calls: total number of calls arriving in the call distribution chain.

- Calls Answered: number of ACD calls transferred to an agent and connected, regardless of the
group (called or through overflow).

- Calls Waiting

- Calls in Queue: number of calls placed in the queue before being answered (connected to the
customer), with:

Calls in Queue > T1: number of calls for which the wait period is longer than threshold T1*.
This counter is a subset of the "Calls in Queue" counter.

Calls in Queue > T2: number of calls for which the wait period is longer than threshold T2*.
This counter is a subset of the "Calls in Queue > T1" counter.

* T1 and T2 are two threshold values which can be defined in PM5/ACD Service/General Pa-
rameters/General tab.

- Calls Deterred: number of calls routed to the dissuasion announcement following saturation of
the queue, or if no agent is defined for a given group.

- Calls Abandoned: number of calls which have left the ACD; the caller hangs up before being
connected to an agent, regardless of the routing phase of the call.

- Calls Service Closed: number of calls while the group is closed.

- Calls Overflow: number of calls answered by an agent belonging to the group taking the overflow
from the group requested. This counter is a subset of the Calls Answered counter.

Summary

Number of calls Waiting for less than T1= (Number of calls Waiting) - (Number of calls in Queue
> T1)

Number of calls Waiting between T1 and T2= (Number of calls in Queue > T1) - (Number of calls
in Queue > T2)

Remarque : all the percentages in the table are calculated in relation to incoming calls.

TIME STATISTICS
In the Group Statistics window, click the Time tab.

The following statistics are available as periods of time:

- Average Busy Time: total time of calls answered (time measured between the welcome an-
nouncement and the end of the call), divided by the number of calls answered.

- Average Routing Time: total routing time of calls answered, divided by the number of calls
answered. The announcement time is counted in the routing time.

- Average Waiting Time: total time of calls in the queue, divided by the number of calls answered
which have been waiting.

- Average Ringing Time: total ringing time of calls answered, divided by the number of calls
answered.

- Average Conversation Time: total conversation time of calls answered, divided by the number
of calls answered.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 15/26


STATISTICS APPLICATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

- Average Abandoned Time: total time of calls in the queue before the caller abandons the call
(the caller hangs up before being connected to an agent), divided by the number of abandoned
calls.

- Number of Abandoned Calls: total time of abandoned calls following a caller hanging up when
they were in the queue, or while being transferred after leaving the queue. These calls have gone
through the queue. They are a subset of the counter.

- Voluntary Exits: number of calls which have voluntarily left the queue (by pressing the * key) wi-
thout hanging up, to leave a message in the group mailbox.

- Total of Transfer Numbers: number of calls routed to the transfer number (programmed in PM5/
Call Center/ACD Service/General Parameters/General tab) following an abnormal situation
(group open with no agents assigned, or call waiting when the last agent has gone off duty from
the service, for example). The first call is routed to the transfer number and the following ones to
the queue.

Summary

For a given time slot:

Average busy time = (Average routing time) + (Average conversation time)

Average routing time = (Average waiting time) + (Average ringing time)

Number of incoming calls = (Number of calls Answered) + (Number of calls Abandoned) +

The supervisor application is used to view real-time information on call center activity. This information
is presented in the form of tables and charts on supervisor PCs.

The supervisor application can be used to perform the following operations:

- Supervise traffic and agent workloads in real-time: real-time display of the number of calls waiting,
the number of agents connected, the number of calls deterred, the number of calls lost etc. The
queue indicators are of course specific to each team or each group.

- Place agents on duty or take them off duty.

- Oblige an agent to move from one group to another, depending on the call load in the queue, the
duration of calls or the workload observed.

- Simultaneously observe:

- several groups or teams,


- several call numbers,
- several queues.

The supervisor is provided with a tool which can be used to immediately check the status of his/her
team. It can be used to see:

- the number of calls waiting,


- the number of calls received and processed,
- the number of transactions made,
- the number of calls abandoned or deterred,
- the number of agents active, busy or free,
- the status of the agents assigned to sets: free, idle, post-processing or busy (conversation time,
answer time, idle time, etc.).

Using the supervisor application, the supervisor manages:

- agent status,

- group status,

- agent activity rates,

- line (ACD port) status.

Nota : The supervisor can also act as an agent.

Observation of agent activity


When the Supervisor application is opened, the agent status window appears.

This window contains two areas:

- An upper area listing agent parameters.

- The Agent Activity Rate (%) area.

Upper area listing agent parameters

The upper area lists the agent parameters in a table.

A set can have the following statuses:

- On duty,
- Temporary absence,
- Clerical work,

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/12


SUPERVISOR APPLICATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

- Off duty.

- On duty

A set can have the following statuses:

- Awaiting Call

The agent assigned to an ACD group is likely to answer the next ACD call.

- No Answer

A call has been sent to an agent who does not answer.

Remarque : when configuring the general parameters, if the heading Agents that do not
answer are automatically withdrawn is checked, the supervisor must put the set
back on duty for it to be operational again; if the heading is not checked, the status
No Answer is displayed for 10 seconds and the set then switches to Awaiting Call.

- Being Routed

The agent's set is reserved for a call currently being transferred to it (the set is not yet ringing).

- Ringing

The agent's set rings after transfer of the ACD call.

- ACD Busy

The agent is holding an ACD conversation.

- Idle

The agent has just hung up after an ACD call. He/she is then given an idle period (General
Parameters/General tab) before another call is sent.

- Not Available

The agent's set is busy with non-ACD calls.

- Faulty

The agent has dialed incorrectly.

- Busy, Outgoing Call

The agent's set is off the hook without any dialing taking place or the agent is making a non-
ACD call.

- Temporary Absence

The agent has temporarily gone off duty for a break.

- Clerical Work

OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE SUPERVISOR APPLICATION

Following an ACD conversation, the agent may, for example, need to assess the call (fill out a cus-
tomer information screen etc.); he/she temporarily withdraws from the call distribution chain.

- Off Duty

The agent has withdrawn from all ACD groups or the agent has no associated terminal.

Remarque : an agent observed as off duty on an isolated basis can very easily have an activity
rate of 80% for the hour currently being observed.

Agent Activity Rate (%) area

The agent activity rate is represented as a bar chart or graph. The agent activity rate is the ratio
between the time spent on ACD calls for each agent in the selected time slot, and the period of time
used to calculate activity rates (1 hour or 1/2 hour).

Changing agent parameters

Using the Supervisor Console window, the supervisor can change:

- The priority rank of the agent in the groups he/she belongs to.

- The agent status in real-time.

- The group the agent belongs to.

1. In the Status column of the table, click the cell corresponding to the agent whose parameters you
want to change. The Agent X Parameters window appears.

2. Change the parameters as required.

Remarque : The name and set number of the agent cannot be changed by the supervisor.

3. Click Apply to confirm the data, then OK to close the window. The changes are implemented by

- Calls Being Routed: the number of calls in the process of being connected to an agent, but
not yet put through.
- Waiting Time < Overflow Time: the number of calls which have been waiting less time than
the overflow time delay (search for agent only in the group requested)
- Waiting Time > Overflow Time: the number of calls which have been waiting longer than
the overflow time delay (search for agent only in the group requested and possibly in the over-
flow group if the latter is entered).

- Calls in Queue > T1: number of calls waiting for longer than threshold T1*. This counter is
a subset of the "Calls in Queue" counter.
- Calls in Queue > T2: number of calls waiting for longer than threshold T2*. This counter is
a subset of the "Calls in Queue > T1" counter.

Nota : * T1 and T2 are two threshold values which can be defined in PM5/General Parame-
ters/General tab.

- Deterred Calls: the number of calls routed to the dissuasion announcement following satura-
tion of the queue, or if no agent is defined in a given group.
- Calls Service Closed: the number of calls taking place while the group is closed.
- Group Status:

Forcing to open or closed status is indicated on the Observation screens by the letter M for Ma-
nual. To view these statuses, click on the Group Status field, selecting the group required.

The group statuses are:

- OPEN M: group forced open.


- CLOSED M: group forced closed.
- OPEN: group open (depending on time slot or contact).
- CLOSED: group closed (depending on time slot or contact).
- Saturated Group: there are too many calls and the group is overloaded.

A group x is shown as overloaded as follows:

- Group x saturated (orange): no agents are free in the group, the next call will be placed in
the queue.

- Group x saturated (red): the time elapsed since group x was saturated is longer than the
value Time Delay Before Gradation of Overload Announcements defined when the
groups are configured.

- Calls in Queue: there is at least one call in the queue.

- Deterred Calls: at least one call is being deterred.

Remarque : all the percentages in the table are calculated in relation to calls coming into the ACD.

Example 1: default scenario

The parameter Waiting Begins Before Overflow Time Delay(*)is checked:

- Calls in queue > threshold T1: number of calls in queue for longer than T1

- Calls in queue > threshold T2: number of calls in queue for longer than T2

In this case, counting of the queue time for the statistics starts as soon as the call enters the queue.

Example 2: specific scenario

The parameter Waiting Begins Before Overflow Time Delay(*)is not checked:

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 7/12


SUPERVISOR APPLICATION OMNITOUCH CALL CENTER OFFICE

- Calls in queue > threshold T1: number of calls in queue for longer than (T1 + overflow time)

- Calls in queue > threshold T2: number of calls in queue for longer than (T2 + overflow time)

where overflow time is a value programmed independently for each of the groups 1-4 and 5-8 in
the Overflow Grouping field.

In this case, counting of the queue time for the statistics starts on termination of the overflow time delay,
the wait before this threshold being ignored.

SECURITY

In the remote access, the protocol used in the "data link" OSI layer is PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol). The
TCP/IP protocols are used respectively in the "transport" and "network" layers. For each layer, Alcatel
OmniPCX Office carries out an access control.

Authentication
At the start of the connection (PPP), an account name (system masked) and password (PBXk1064) are
required. This account name is automatically generated by PM5. The password is required by PM5 to
establish a direct connection (LAN) with Alcatel OmniPCX Office. Any other authentication will be re-
jected.

Firewall
If the system accepts the authentication, the PPP connection will be established, and all the data packets
received on this interface will be filtered according to the following rules:

All the packets are refused except:

- packets bound for Alcatel OmniPCX Office FTP server via two TCP ports preset for the PCX confi-
guration by PM5.
- packages bound for Alcatel OmniPCX Office HTTP server via the HTTP port preset for the Internet
access configuration by WBM (Web Based Management).
- control packets using the ICMP protocol (Internet Control Message Protocol).

LOCAL V24 ACCESS FOR PM5

It is possible to use PM5 software to dialog with OmniPCX Office using a V24 connection. In this case
the network connection is not necessary.

A specific reinforced cable must link the "Config" RJ45 connector on the system CPU to the Com port

VOICE PROMPTS MANAGEMENT
3

On Alcatel Omni PCX Office, it is possible to manage "Voice prompts" using Alcatel software PM5.

The facility of importing, exporting and saving voice mail names and greetings, all automated atten-
dant greetings and all information messages is offered by PM5.
The voice prompts are managed via sound files under "Wav" formats. Different formats are used ac-
cording exportation or importation.
Access to these facilities depends of software licences and system hardware (Hard disk, ...).

"VOICE PROMPTS" EXPORTATION

Individual Voice prompts exportation is possible using different sub-menu in PM5 or collectively using
a general "Save" procedure (see "Voice prompts importation").
All voice prompts used by the system are managed via sound files under the specific format Alcatel
Wav ADPCM G726. It is usually not possible to edit files with this format on regular sound editors.
To have the possibility to listen, record and import sound files via standard PC's sound editors, it is
necessary to convert them to more popular format.
This operation is done by PM5 software which converts file system from format Alcatel Wav ADPCM
G726 to format Wav PCM 16 bit 8kHz mono.
Knowing that each converting operation causes a loss of sound quality, it is advisable to use the
ADPCM format as much as possible for an export/import of the same voice prompts.

"Voice prompts" exportation process


In order to export voice prompts (mail box greeting in this example) it is necessary to open the Alcatel
PM5 software in direct connection and expert mode and use the following process:

- select the Subscribers/Basestations list


- select subscriber of you choice which as a mail box all ready personalized
- click on Details
- click on Mailbox
- select the property page Option in windows Subscriber mailbox select Combo box Voice
prompt - Personal greeting Transfer and save as
- At this step, it is possible to:
- export the voice prompt in different format
- listen directly the message (click on "Play")
- delete it (click on "Erase" )
- Specify the destination path on your main drive (eg C:/Temp/Prompts) and the file name.
- Click on " export" ; at this step, the system will propose to use a standard Wav PC format or the
regular Alcatel ADPCM format.
- The voice prompt is then transfered from the system to the PC; this operation may take few seconds
according the size of the file). The voice prompt will be stored on your drive in format Alcatel
ADPCM G726 or PCM 16 bit 8 kHz mono according your choice.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/6


VOICE PROMPTS MANAGEMENT PM5 : SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

Nota : if no greeting has been prerecorded (no customization), the combo boxes "personal
greeting" are Grey. This operation is possible for all voice prompts about Mail boxes,
Automated Attendant and information messages. The procedure is the same as descri-
bed before; just select the corresponding menu.

"VOICE PROMPT" COMPLETE SAVE

All "Voice prompts" may be saved used the following system save procedure:

- start the Alcatel PM5 software in direct or remote connection


- select the menu Com -> Read from PCX -> Voice Prompts
- click on OK
- wait until the end of the transfer.
- save the file selecting File -> Save as
- enter a file name and click on OK.

The "prompts" files stored this way are available under: C:/Program Files/Alcatel/PM5/R110-13.3/tar-
gprod/afr100/customer.dbs/saved file name.

Nota : Directory "R110-13.3" corresponds to the PM5 version used during save procedure- ;direc-
tory "afr100" corresponds to "Target" system used during PM5 installation

"Wav" files stored after this procedure are in format Alcatel ADPCM G 726 and can't be listen to or
modified only via specific software and Codec.

"VOICE PROMPT" IMPORTATION

As described in exportation procedure, it is necessary to convert "Wav" files from PCM to ADPCM for-
mat. This operation is done in PM5 during the transfer from the PC to the system.
If the prompt to be imported is in ADPCM format (file imported from a system) the conversion will not

SYSTEM LANGUAGE MODIFICATION

The list of languages present in the system Alcatel Omni Pcx Office is installed during software down-
loading in the manufacture. It depend of hardware and key (license) ordered:

- 2 languages are installed in case of no XMEM is equipped (no memory expansion)


- 4 languages are available if a XMEM or a hard disk is equipped.

It is possible to modify the number and the type of languages using the software downloading mecha-
nism in PM5.

Procedure
In a first time it is necessary to choose a software version to be downloaded (usually the current softwa-
re version already installed on the system). This way, only the languages will be loaded during the
downloading.
Languages modification could also be done during a software downloading for a migration to a new
version.
Proceed as follow:
- open PM5 software.
- select the "Tools" menu.
- select "Software Download".
- in the window "Software Download", choose the desired version in "Delivery file" (V19_09 for exam-
ple).
- click on "OK".
- select the box "languages" in "Languages" menu, modify order and/or choice of languages.
- click on "OK".
- select "Data saving" box (if data saving is not performed, all customers datas will be lost after the
swap.
- click on "Start"
- the system downloads the different languages and corresponding voice prompts. The new langua-
ges will be available at the end of downloading, swap and the system reset. All other configuration
parameters will stay unchanged.

Notas : The list of available language can be easily checked using the customization mode on
Reflexes set (menu Custom, option, language)

During languages downloading, the system does not check if the memory capacity is
correct for the number of languages loaded; it is to installer to make sure the system
configuration is correct for 4 languages max.

If one language is selected for a subscriber and after language downloading, the lan-
guage is not present in the system anymore, silence will replace the missing language
for this subscriber.

The primary default languages is always the first one in the list.

The Man-Machine Conversation (MMC) by 4034/Advanced station enables modification of the para-
meters of the different system elements.

Notas :

- only a single 4034/Advanced station can be in MMC at a given moment.


- simultaneous access to the MMC by station and by PC is impossible.

The modifications are made in 2 ways:

- By introducing a numeric value (number of the station for example) or an alphanumeric value.
- By choosing one of the predefined values presented on the display using the soft keys.

ACCESS TO THE MMC

Access to the MMC is enabled by:

- entering the code 70 (by default) or by using a key programmed with this code, or by pressing the
SYSTEM key (Advanced station).

- choosing the session: 3 sessions are offered: INSTALLER (key INSTAL ) ADMINISTRATOR (key ADMIN )
and OPERATOR * (key OPERAT). These different levels of access to the parameterizable features thus
enable modifications to be authorized to cleared people only.
- entering the password corresponding to the chosen session.

Notas : * Only Installer and Administrator sessions are presented in this notice; for the Operator
session, refer to the Installation guide.

- outgoing resource key (RGO): handles local and/or external outgoing calls.
- incoming resource key (RGI): handles local and/or external incoming calls.

If the key is specialized, that key handles a particular type of call:

- resource key dedicated to external access (RSP): handles the calls coming from or going to that ac-
cess.
- resource key specialized in destination (RSD):
- dedicated to a directory number, handles local calls for this number.
- dedicated to a DDI number, handles incoming calls for this number.
- associated to a trunk number, handles the outgoing calls on this trunk.
- resource key dedicated to a station (RSL): handles the calls coming from and going to a particular
station
- resource key dedicated to a trunk (RSB): for making external outgoing calls via a particular trunk
and receiving all network calls.

DESCRIPTION

In the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system, a software key is represented by an alphanumeric string of cha-
racters, which opens functions. Two software keys correspond to each Alcatel OmniPCX Office system:

- the PRINC (PRINCIPAL) software key or MAIN for the system functions (voice, Internet, etc.)

- the CTI Software key for the CTI functions

The software key corresponds to a text file where the name is the CPU hardware number with the .MSL
(MAIN key) or .CSL (CTI key) extension.

Example: file 000068DA.msl and 000068DA.csl for main CPU no. 000068DA.

Each system needs the Main and CTI Software keys even if no CTI application is used on the system.

The systems can be delivered with a key that is already personalized for the client. The Distributor
needs to load if necessary the personalized key on the non-factory-configured systems.

CONFIGURATION

Keys must be downloaded in the event of CPU replacement or modifications to improve the system
features.

However, the installation can be adapted to meet new needs when the system is in place by entering
a new software key:
- by MMC-PM5 (Expert View): Typical Modification -> System -> Software key
- by MMC-Station: Global -> SwKeys -> Main/CTI

Two software keys can be entered: one for the system functionalities (Main key), the other for CTI func-
tionalities (CTI key).

Keys consist of:

- all upper-case letters except I and O


- all digits except 1 and 0
- the special characters #, $, /, %, &, *, +, @,( and )

In some cases it is necessary to do a warm reset to activate the new key. A message is dis-
played for doing this reset.

Nota : In PM5, the values contained in the key are displayed in the first column "Authorized by li-

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/6


SOFTWARE KEYS SOFTWARE KEYS

cense" and the functions that are really open are displayed in the second column "Really
activated". Since the equipment has no influence on the CTI functions, a single display co-
lumn is available.

Remarque : In the event of a software key change or a reduction in the number of Web Communi-
cation Assistant users, it is recommended to withdraw Web Communication Assistant ri-
ghts from the relevant users before loading the new software key. Otherwise the system
randomly selects users and withdraws their rights. For a more detailed description of the
allocation and withdrawal of Web Communication Assistant rights via the WBM, refer
to "Users and user groups" in the Internet Applications section.

SOFTWARE KEY CONTROL MECHANISM ON THE SYSTEM

On starting up the system, different cases are possible:

- The functions needed by the customer are open and work properly: the software key present
on the system is correct.

- The functions needed are not open

- The key is valid but some functions are not open (verification done by MMC).

- Verify that the order meets the client's needs. If not, contact the orders' department. A new
software key needs to be created including the new features.

- When loading the key via PM5 a warning message is displayed. In this case the functionalities
may be limited due to insufficient memory (Hard disk or XMEM) or CPU power.

- The software key present on the system is not correct:

- The software key syntax is correct but it does not match the CPU's serial number. The system

SOFTWARE KEYS SOFTWARE KEYS

CONTROL OF THE SOFTWARE VERSION

Starting with version R2.0, each key works with a specific system software version.
This mechanism concerns only the "major" versions: R1, R2, R3.

If the key version does not correspond to the system software version, the system starts with the reques-
ted functions but for a limited period (30 days). At the end of this period, it reinitialises in limited mode.

When entering a key by PM5, if the software version is not correct, PM5 signals it and requests confir-
mation.

EDITING NUMBER AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT CODE

The editing number is incremented with each implementation of a new key on a specific installation.

The acknowledgement code is indicated in message 34 (bytes 2 and 3) of the history messages table.

When a key is provided by Alcatel and is implemented in the system, this procedure is irreversible.

It is possible to reload a previous key but the system will only open the requested functions for a limited
period (30 days). At the end of this period, the system reinitialises in limited mode.

PROCEDURE IN CASE OF PROBLEM

To obtain a key corresponding to the main CPU, you must contact ALCATEL. You must explain the pro-
blem.

- The client's main CPU has been changed. (Indicate the old and new CPU no.)
- The system was delivered with a software key corresponding to the CPU but does not work
- Etc….

WARNING
NO INTERVENTION IN THE CABINET IS AUTHORIZED FOR THE USER. ONLY THE
INSTALLER OR THEIR REPRESENTATIVE IS AUTHORIZED TO INTERFERE WITH THE
CABINET

This section does not deal with failures caused by configuration errors nor with those caused by errors
in the telephone features.

In either of these cases, refer to the sections on MMC-Station and Telephone Features.
In all cases, a perfect knowledge of the system (architecture, distribution of function processing, etc.)
and of its telephone features is essential, and in particular the limits of these features.

Faults concerning distribution must be eliminated first.

To avoid taking a wrong track when determining faults, it is vital to define the source of the fault from
the outset:
- operating error by the user
- programming error by the user or operator
- programming error in implementation
- genuine system failure

TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE

For any system failure, it is essential to make visual checks (LEDs for the various boards, data testing,
automatic set testing), to check the power supply voltage (mains and battery) and to read the system
messages.

The procedure is as follows:

- locate the terminal(s) affected by the fault. If several terminals are affected by the same fault, de-
termine the common link which might be the cause (logical numbers of the same board, geogra-
phical distribution, same type of programming, etc.)
- determine at what level the faulty feature is occurring (local or external call, etc).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


PROBLEM-SOLVING METHODOLOGY MAINTENANCE

EXTENT OF FAILURE

A failure may be characterized by various aspects:

- Total system failure:


- In this case, the fault can only be located in the module
- The failure is most likely to come from the power supply or from the CPU (control unit); the next
most likely cause is a set or network interface board interfering with the CPU.
- Total failure of a group of sets:
- if all the sets are on the same board, then the fault probably lies in the board
- if all the sets go out on the same cable, then the fault probably lies with the cable.
- Total failure of a single terminal: the fault is probably in the set itself. If not, check the equipment
in question.
- Partial failure of a single terminal: the fault is probably due to the configuration or mode of ope-
ration.

DELIBERATE REPRODUCTION OF DEFAULTS

To make sure that your analysis of the fault is correct, it is essential to try to repeat the failure intentio-
nally, unless it is unequivocal and permanent.

Once the fault is observed or repeated, and depending on the presumed source of the failure, replace
the faulty element with a working one and try to repeat the original fault again.

If the fault remains, carry out the complete analysis of the failure again.

MAINTENANCE PROBLEM-SOLVING METHODOLOGY

LOCATING FAULTS

Power supply problem

If the mains and battery operation LEDs are both out, check all the fuses.

If the fuses are correct, this means that the duration of the mains power outage has been longer than
the battery autonomy.

CPU board problem

If the CPU board LEDs are off, or are on steady, the system control unit is not working.

Miscellaneous

For any fault signaled on a terminal (set, add-on module or optional terminal such as a printer, etc),
the following operations will be necessary:

- Test of the maintenance terminal in place of the failed terminal


- Test of the terminal at the module level

ELEMENT SUBSTITUTION

RULES TO RESPECT
Any substitution (power supply, CPU station board, interface board, etc.) must be carried out
with the system powered down.

With PM5 you can save and subsequently restore the configuration (see "Data Saving").

If replacing a PRA board, make sure that the configuration of the new board is consistent with the old
one.

Powering up/down the system


- Press the ON/OFF button.
- Wait for the LED to go to steady red (about 30 seconds): system powered down
- Press ON/OFF to power up again after intervening (with the boards plugged back in). Wait 3 to 4
minutes for the system to initialize completely.

MAINTENANCE BOARD MANAGEMENT

BOARD MANAGEMENT
2

SYSTEM WITH A SOFTWARE VERSION OLDER THAN R2.0

The system should always be powered down before plugging/unplugging a board.

Plugging in a board
When a board is plugged in, the system allocates numbers to the board equipment (subscriber direc-
tory numbers or line numbers); these numbers are allocated in ascending order of free system num-
bers. The board equipment is initialized with the corresponding default configuration.

When a board is plugged into a slot previously taken up by another board, this board is managed in
the following way:

- if the new board is of the same type (same scan point) as the board previously plugged in, the new
board is assigned the same data (numbers and configuration) as the previous one
- if the new board is different from the previous one, the system deletes the previous board and as-
sociated data (the numbers allocated are now available and the default configuration is cancelled).
The new board is then recognized as if it was plugged into a free slot (the equipment numbers are
allocated in ascending order and the board initialized with the default configuration corresponding
to the new board type).

Unplugging a board
In general, unplugging a board from the module does not trigger an update of the data allocated to
the board (directory numbers, key programming, line parameters, etc.) ; the unplugged board is con-
sidered as "absent and accepted" (it is taken into account when the system checks the equipment limits)
as long as no other board is plugged into this slot or a cold reset carried out on the system.

SYSTEM WITH A SOFTWARE VERSION FROM R2.0

Except for power and CPU/CoCPU/MEX, any board can be plugged/unplugged when the sys-
tem is powered up.

Before unplugging or plugging in a CoCPU-1/CoCPU-2 board, it MUST be switched off using


the On/Off button on this board.

Interface boards can be replaced on a powered-up system if their OBC version allows it (ver-
sion readable by PM5 -> Hardware and Limits):

- from the 2.006 version for old boards.


- from the 3.003 version for the APA, LANX-1, UAI16-1, SLI-1 boards.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/4


BOARD MANAGEMENT MAINTENANCE

Plugging in a board
- Plugging in a board in an unused environment:The board is considered as "present, accepted
or refused"; it depends on the various configuration settings: authorised or unauthorised slot, equi-
pment limits, software keys, etc. A "present and accepted" board is taken into account by the sys-
tem.

- Plugging a board into a slot which was previously used by a similar board with the same
number of interfaces or accesses: The data related to the old board are not deleted; the new
board is considered as "present, accepted or refused" with the same number of accesses or inter-
faces as the previous board.

- Plugging a board into a slot which was previously used by a different board or by a similar
board with a different number of interfaces or accesses: All the data related to the old board
are deleted; the new board is then considered as if it had been plugged in a new slot.

Unplugging a board
If the board is unplugged when it is in "present and accepted" status, it is deactivated and declared
"absent"; the other data related to the board configuration remain unchanged. The processing is the
same for a board in a "present but refused" state, but that board will not be deactivated.

Nota : In case of a "gentle" plugging-in, it is possible that the plugged board may not be detected
by the CPU board or detected with the wrong slot number.

In On line Mode, PM5 does not automatically detect a plugged/unplugged board on a


powered-up system; the session should be closed, then restarted for the board to be taken
into account.

ALLOCATING DIRECTORY NUMBERS

When the system is booted, the directory numbers are assigned to the internal and virtual terminals on
the basis of the default numbering plan, in the following order of appearance of interface boards and
connected terminals:

- terminals connected to the SLI and UAI boards of the basic module
- terminals connected to the SLI and UAI boards of the add-on modules (if fitted)
- virtual terminals (XRA, DECT handsets, VMU, IP).

At the end of the system boot, the following numbers are assigned to the set options in order of ap-
pearance.

Example:

We have an Alcatel OmniPCX Office system comprising 2 modules:

- a basic module with 2 VMU ports and fitted with a UAI16 board (a V24 option is embedded in the
Reflexes sets connected to board interfaces 1 and 16)
- an add-on module fitted with a UAI16 board (a V24 option is embedded in the set connected to
the first board interface)
- after the system boot, 10 DECT handsets are added using MMC-PM5.

2/4 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01


File

MAINTENANCE BOARD MANAGEMENT

In the above configuration, and with a 3-digit numbering plan, the following directory numbers are
assigned:

- 101 to 116: Reflexes sets on the basic module


- 117 to 132: Reflexes sets on the add-on module
- 133 and 134: VMU ports
- 135 and 136: V24 accesses on the basic module
- 137 : V24 accesses on the add-on module
- 138 to 147: DECT handsets

Configuration checks

In case of any hardware or configuration change, the following limits are checked (for detailed quan-
tifications, please see "Capacities and limits" in the "Product Presentation" section):

- maximum number of corded interfaces: any additional interface will be refused.


- maximum number of directory numbers: any attempt to add another number will be rejected.
The directory numbers assigned to the auxiliaries (VMU, XRA, etc) are not covered by these checks,
and are always accepted.
- maximum number of D-channels (T0/T1/T2/DASS2 interfaces): Any additional interface (T0)
or board (PRA) will be refused.
- maximum number of B-channels (TLs, ISDN access, VoIP access): any attempt to add another
interface will be rejected (and the interface containing the B-channel in question declared out of
service).
- maximum number of hard disks:

INITIALIZING SETS

On powering up, Reflexes sets execute a self-test:

- display test
- test of the LEDs or icons of the set and add-on module, if any
- audio test

REPLACING A SET

You can replace your Reflexes set by connecting a set of the same family, but of a different type, into
your phone socket. This substitution can be temporary or permanent.

Replacing an analog set by another analog set, or replacing a Reflexes set by a set of the same type,
requires no special procedure (simple hardware exchange).

Temporary substitution
The replacement set keeps its own default functions (customized settings are not transferred). The data
not transferred are stored in the Alcatel OmniPCX Office system until a set of the same type as the
initial one is connected.

Your terminal is unserviceable Your terminal is repaired

Replacement of Reflexes sets

Regardless of the type of the initial Reflexes set and that of the replacement, the function and resource
keys are not preserved. The directory numbers are preserved in accordance with the size of the direc-
tories of the stations concerned (for example, when replacing a Reflexes Advanced set with a Reflexes
Premium set, only the first 10 numbers are preserved.

The add-on modules are always transferred provided the substitution set supports these modules.

RELOCATING A SET

If you move office, you can move your set from one socket to another and still preserve all or part of
its settings.

Before relocating the set:

- You need to change the personal code, which must be different from the default code.

- It is advisable to lock the set.

OUTLINE

Configuration backup

The backup operation concerns all the parameters not reinitialized during a warm reset:

- global data (software version, backup time and date, etc)


- configuration data (types of boards and terminals, characteristics of terminals and groups, keys
and repertory settings, numbering plans, directory, barring tables)
- data recorded by users (mail, appointment reminders, forwarding)
- metering counters

The configuration data backup can be activated in either of 2 ways:

- manually by the installer (MMC-PC or Station backup command)


- automatically and periodically, at a time programmed by the installer, using MMC-PC or Station

The backup session is exclusive of any MMC-PC or MMC-Station operation or customization session;
any modification is ignored during backup. During the backup, avoid any activation or inhibition of
services (appointment reminders are not protected, diversions and filtering are refused) which would
modify the settings.

Any system data modification and any hardware modification by MMC PM5 or Station must be fol-
lowed by a backup.

Duration of a backup session: about 20 seconds per module; more than a minute for a multi-module
installation.

At the end of the session, a message appears in the hardware message table (to signal failure) or in
the system history table (to signal success).

Configuration restore

The restore session is activated manually by the installer (MMC-PC or Station restore command). All
the saved data are restored.

Duration of a restore session: 1 to 7 minutes.

At the end of the session, a message appears in the hardware message table (failure indication) or in
the system history table (success indication).

HISTORY MESSAGES

The events identified by the codes in the system history messages table concern modifications to the
system hardware configuration (appearance/disappearance of boards or terminals, refusal of a board
on exceeding equipment limits) or other events (reset execution, buffer fill rate attained, etc).

When the table is full, a new event is memorized in place of the oldest message.

This table is only emptied in the event of a cold system reset.

DATA RESTORATIONS
6

In case of maintenance and exchange of CPU board (main CPU and/orCoCPU@), the data stored on
the daughter board XMEM64 and/orthe Hard Disk will or will not be restored depending on the con-
ditionsdescribed hereafter.

PROCEDURE TO EXCHANGE A MAIN CPU BOARD

CPU with XMEM64 (no Hard Disk)

The XMEM64 is not faulty and doesn't have to be exchanged

- Install the old XMEM64 on the new mainCPU board.


- All datas stored in the XMEM64 board are normally still availableafter the CPU exchange. Howe-
ver, data saved on the XMEM64 board(messages, conversations, metering tickets) will not be res-
toredif for some reason it is not stored (see Nota). After which it willbe requiered to make a cold
reset of the system, launch the "Datasaving" process via PM5 to restore the data configuration in-
formation(see paragraph A).

Nota : You could find a new/replacementCPU delivered from the factory which will not always res-
tore thedata from the XMEM. But normally it would only occur if the exchangeCPU is not
charged with a software version.

Paragraph 1: The XMEM64 is faulty and has to be exchanged

When the new XMEM64 board is installed, launch the "Data restore"process via PM5 to restore the data
configuration information.

Select Comm ->Write to PCX, select the box VoicePrompts (screen "Write to PCX").

The data restored are :


- names and announcements of the voicemail unit.
- auto attendant announcements, greetings.

But, voice mail messages, NMC metering tickets and conversationsrecorded can not be restored.

CPU without XMEM64


Launch the "Data restore" process via PM5 to restore configurationinformation. The voice files will be
available in the conditionsof paragraph A (except for customizable voices announces used withHard
Disk or XMEM64).

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/2


DATA RESTORATIONS MAINTENANCE

CPU with Hard Disk

The Hard Disk is not faulty and doesn't have to beexchanged

- Install the old Hard Disk on the newmain CPU board.


- After a cold reset of the system, launch the "Data restore"process via PM5 (see paragraph A). All
informations saved on theHard Disk are normally available (including voice messages and conver-
sationsrecorded).
- The Internet Access configuration (FAI, users, proxy, security,...) can be restored. Select the box "In-
ternet Access Data" duringthe data base restore (screen Write to PCX.

The Hard Disk is faulty and has to be changed

- All messages, record conversations andNMC metering tickets are lost.


- The cache memory is also lost.
- Voice files (= Voice prompts) are available by respectingthe condition explained in paragraph A.

MAINTENANCE MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X

File
MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X
9

INTRODUCTION

This file describes the details of evolution and migration of an installation integrating a R1.X solution
to an installation integrating a R2.X solution.

Evolution
The term evolution refers to transition from a Business R1.X solution to a Business R2.X / Voice solution
(and not to an e-Business / Voice + IA solution). Therefore a software evolution only.

Migration
The term migration refers to changes or adaptations to hardware that will be necessary in addition to
the software evolution. A migration will make it possible to benefit from new Internet services available
in R2.X.

Installation migration refers to one of the following cases:

- switching from a Business R1 solution (R1.0/R1.1) to an e-Business R2.X solution.


- switching from an e-Business R1.X solution to an e-Business R2.X solution.

Attention : In order to make migrations easier, kits are offered according to the client's needs and
current installation.

EVOLUTION OF AN INSTALLATION: VOICE SYSTEM ONLY

To benefit from the new Voice services, the system software must be updated: switch from a Business
R1.X solution (with a CPU, CPUe or CPU-1 board) to a Business R2.X solution (with a CPU, CPUe or
CPU-1 board). This is an evolution to a Business R2.X solution. No exchange of hardware (CPU) has
taken place.

Backup
You must use the PM5 release that will be run with the R2.X.

Open PM5, connect to the R1.X system and carry out a backup save of the R1.X database:

- select "Communication" / "Read from PCX".


- DO NOT select "Internal access data.
- select "Voice prompts" if necessary, followed by "OK".
- once this database has been transferred, select "File / Save as" (and define a file name) in order to
save this database.
- disconnect the current on-line session: "Communication" / "Disconnect".

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 1/8


MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X MAINTENANCE

Swapping software R1.X to R2.X


Carry out software swapping by means of the PM5 R2.X.

- select "Tools" / "PM5 - Software Downloading.


- start a session.
- select the "Delivery File" (R2.X software to load).
- if necessary, (depending on the services to be loaded), select "Voice over IP Services", "Remote Ac-
cess Services" (RAS).
- DO NOT select "Data Backup" (cold swap).
- select Start, then Exit at the end of loading.

T2 board
Before any restore procedure on a database incorporating more than one T2 board:

- Cold exit after this swap procedure to the software release R2.X.
- Start the Wizard. You must enter into this function in order to identify the number of B-channels (T2
board).
- After identifying the number of B-channels to use, carry out a hot reset.
- Start the database restore procedure.

Restoring
Carry out restoration of the database by means of the PM5 R2.X.

- in off-line mode, select the database to restore ("File" / "Open" / selection of database/ "Open").
- start an on-line session on the R2.X system.
- as soon as the connection is established, the "Transmit to PCX" screen is displayed in order to res-
tore the database.
- in this same screen, DO NOT select "Internet access data".
- select "Dynamic data" and "Voice Prompts" if necessary.
- confirm with "OK" => an alert screen proposes a hot reset of the system after restoration: select
"Yes".

R2.X software key


Once the evolution to the software release R2.X has been performed, type in the code of the new R2.X
software key.
A hot reset is required after you type in this new key.

INSTALLATION MIGRATION: VOICE SYSTEM + INTERNET ACCESS

Migration of a R1.X solution (Business or e-Business) to an e-Business R2.X solution (integrating Internet
access services).
To take advantage of the new Internet services, it is necessary to follow the migration procedure (re-
quiring hardware changes or adaptations).
Migration of an e-Business R1 solution (with Internet Access) to a Business R2 solution (Voi-
ce) must be performed using Lola.

MAINTENANCE MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X

Hardware

1 - Module

If the R1.X solution's installation is a first generation Rack 1, 2 or 3, you must replace this module with
a second generation Rack 1, 2 or 3.

The technical code of the 2nd generation module is visible at the back (see label):

- Rack 1: 3EH 76020 ACAA or 3EH 76020 ACAB


- Rack 2 : 3EH 76045 ABAA or 3EH 76045 ABAB
- Rack 3 : 3EH 76027 ACAA or 3EH 76027 ACAB

2 - main CPU - CoCPU@

In all cases, when the Internet function is used in R2.X, it is vital to use a CPUe-1 board (Pentium III)
instead of the CPU boards (or CPUe or CPU-1) and CoCPU@. boards

3 - WAN board

The WAN daughter board allows an ADSL Internet connection.


If this board is used on the R1.X system, remove this board from the CoCPU@ board and position it
on the new CPUe-1 board.

Backup / restore of the database as part of an installation migration (to R2.X Voice +
Internet Access solution)
Important : Only the WinNT and Win2000 operating systems can run the backup / restore
procedures via PM5 described below

In addition, the Windows releases must incorporate the appropriate updates:

- Windows NT 4.0

- Service pack 6a
- Security Rollup Package (SRP: Q299444)

- Windows 2000

- Service pack 2
- Security Rollup Package (W2KSP2SRP1: Q311401)
- or Service pack 3 (which contains the 2 Service Packs described above)

1 - Backup

It is necessary to deactivate the Proxy (manual and/or automatic proxy configuration) in In-
ternet Explorer on the PC where the database will be saved.

Check the available disk space on the hard disk of the PC where the database will be saved is sufficient
to store all the system's data.

You must use the PM5 release compatible with R2.X.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 3/8


MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X MAINTENANCE

Connection to the R1.X system (incorporating the old hardware, CPUe + CoCPU@) and backup of
this system's database.

Important : All the saved data (e-mails, voice mails, NMC accounting tickets) are potentially
confidential. Security actions must therefore be deployed:

- data backup is only possible via a direct local PM5 connection via a crossover Ethernet cable.

- during the data backup phase, the CPUe + CoCPU boards must be disconnected from the
network.

- 1st step: connection by PM5 and selection of the components to save:

- connect a crossover Ethernet cable directly to the LAN input on the main CPU board of the R1.X
system.
- open PM5 (corresponding to release R2.X).
- select "Communication" / "Read from PCX": the screen "Read from PCX" is displayed.
- select "Internet Access data" (in this case of migration we assume that Internet access is available
on the R1.X system).
- select "Voice Prompts" if necessary.
- The choice "Voice mails, e-mails and NMC tickets" is proposed. This section is only open
when a PM5 connection using the R2.X release is generated to a system equipped with a R1.X
software. If these requirements are not fulfilled, this choice is grayed out and cannot be selec-
ted. Select this choice in order to save e-mails, voice mails and NMC accounting tickets.
- confirm the selections with "OK".

- 2nd step: reading the selected data:

- when the option "Voice mails, e-mails and NMC tickets" is selected, PM5 checks the connection
has been established by means of a direct crossover cable. If this test fails, PM5 displays an
error message indicating this cable is mandatory for this step.
- a progress bar is displayed (indicating the state of progress of data reading) while the data are
being read.
- before PM5 starts to read the e-mails, the hardware is detected in advance in order to ascertain
whether the Internet access is running in single CPU or CoCPU@ mode:

- if Internet access is running in single-CPU mode, the data reading procedure continues as
normal.

- if Internet access is running on CoCPU@, PM5 clears the current session on the main CPU
and a message will indicate that to continue the reading procedure, the crossover cable
must be connected to the CoCPU@ board => connect this cable to the LAN input on the
CoCPU board and select "OK".

- when the data reading procedure has finished, the progress bar disappears from the screen.
- once all these data have been transferred, select "File / Save as" (and define a file name) in
order to save this R1.X database on the PC's hard drive.
- disconnect the current on-line session: "Communication" / "Disconnect".

- 3rd step: adaptation of the database in off-line mode:

4/8 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA Ed. 01

MAINTENANCE MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X

- open this database in off-line mode in order to adapt the hardware and the IP addresses.
- change this database according to the hardware that needs to be adapted:

- In the "Hardware and Limits" / "Main Cabinet" section, the R1.X system is equipped with a
CPUe board. In the column headed " Board Variant" change this selection " CPUe " to "
CPUe-1 ". In the slot for the CoCPU@ board (if present), in the column headed "Board Va-
riant" change this selection " CoCPU@ " to " No board".

- In the "Hardware and Limits" / "IP Boards" section, change the "Default address of router"
field. If a CoCPU@ board was being used in release R1.X, this field indicates either the de-
fault address 192.168.92.247 or the modified IP address. Modify this field using the ad-
dress of the CPUe-1 router (default address 192.168.92.246 or modified IP address). If
Internet access is managed by means of the main CPU (IA application on single CPU) with
the default IP address in release R1.X, the default address of the CPUe-1 board does not
need to be changed (= 192.168.92.246 in both releases R1.X single CPU and R2.X CPUe-
1). If the IP address of the CPUe-1 board has been changed, this field must contain this va-
lue.

- program the IP addresses of the various CoCPU boards.

- save this new database which will be used for restoration on the R2.X system.

2 - Swap from the R1.X system to the R2.X system.

See the appropriate chapters for details of hardware migration.

In the following steps, we assume the R2.X system (new module, CPUe-1 board) has been installed.

The CPUe-1 has been loaded with a R2.X software.

If this R2.X release is not the latest evolution, see below for the software loading/swapping procedure:

- connecting the PM5 to the new R2.X system.


- select "Tools" / "PM5 - Software Downloading".
- start a session.
- select the "Delivery File" (R2.X software to load).
- if necessary, (depending on the services to be loaded), select "Voice over IP Services", "Remote Ac-
cess Services" (RAS), "Internet Services".
- DO NOT select "Data Backup" (cold swap).
- select Start, then Exit at the end of loading.

3 - T2 board

Before any restore procedure on a database incorporating more than one T2 board:

- Cold exit after this swap procedure to the software release R2.X.
- Start the Wizard. You must enter into this function in order to identify the number of B-channels (T2
board).
- After identifying the number of B-channels to use, carry out a hot reset.
- Start the database restore procedure.

Ed. 01 Ref. 3EH 21065 BSAA 5/8


MIGRATION R1.X TO R2.X MAINTENANCE

4 - Restoration

Connection to the R2.X system (including the new hardware: new module + CPUe-1, old hardware
removed: CoCPU@) and restoration of the R1.X database on this R2.X system.

Important : All the data to restore (e-mails, voice mails, NMC accounting tickets) are poten-
tially confidential. Security actions must therefore be deployed:

- data restoration is only possible via a direct local PM5 connection via a crossover Ethernet cable.

- during the data restoration phase, the CPUe-1 + CoCPU boards must be disconnected from the
network.

- 1st step: select the database to restore:

- open PM5 (corresponding to release R2.X).


- in off-line mode, select the database to restore ("File" / "Open" / selection of database/ "Open"),

- 2nd step: connection by PM5 and selection of the components to restore:

- connect a crossover Ethernet cable directly to the LAN input on the CPUe-1 board of the R2.X
system.
Don't forget the PC must have an IP address compatible with the default address of the
R2.X system (such as 192.168.92.XXX).

The R2.X system must be "cold" (default configuration).

- start an on-line session on the R2.X system.


- as soon as the connection is established, the "Transmit to PCX" screen is displayed in order to
restore the database.
- if this screen is not proposed automatically, select "Communication" / "Write to PCX".
- select "Internet Access data" (in this case of migration we assume that Internet access was ini-
tially available on the R1.X system).
- select "Voice Prompts" if necessary.
- the choice "Voice mails, e-mails and NMC tickets" is proposed. This section is only open if:
- the database was initially saved on a R1.X system.
- during the backup, the choice "Voice mails, e-mails, NMC tickets" was selected.
- PM5 is connected to the restoration on an R2.X system.
- Internet access is open and used on this R2.X system.
- If these requirements are not fulfilled, this choice is grayed out and cannot be selected. Se-
lect this choice in order to restore e-mails, voice mails and NMC accounting tickets.
- confirm these selections with "OK".
- an alert screen proposes a hot reset of the system after restoration: select "Yes".

- 3rd step: restoring the selected data:

- when the option "Voice mails, e-mails and NMC tickets" is selected, PM5 checks the connection
has been established by means of a direct crossover cable. If this test fails, PM5 displays an
error message indicating this cable is mandatory for this step.
- during data restoration, there is no progress bar to indicate the state of progress of data rea-

ding (unlike for the data backup procedure).


- once all these data have been restored, a screen is displayed proposing restoration of the
software key:
- select "No" if the previously saved database includes the old software key used in the R1.X
solution => this key will not be restored on the R2.X system. Go to the "R2.X software key"
chapter.
- select "Yes" if the previously saved database already includes the new software key to be
used on the R2.X solution (if this key was modified manually in off-line mode in the saved
R1.X database) => this key will be restored on the R2.X system. In this case the "Software
key R2.X" chapter is not applicable.
- disconnect the current on-line session: "Communication" / "Disconnect".
- the system automatically generates a hot reset (reason: see the end of the procedure in the "2nd
step"). Immediately disconnect the connection cable from the PM5 PC and reconnect the CPUe-
1 and CoCPU boards to the network (via LanX board or external switch).
The IPSec settings are not restored when software is migrated.

MINIMUM SERVICE IN CASE OF
10
HARD DISK CRASH
e-Business solutions require a CPUe-1/CPUe-2 board equipped with a hard disk. In case of hard disk
crash, the system works with reduced services, using NAND Flash memory.

In case of hard disk crash, the system works with the following characteristics:

- all telephone services are available.


- configuration data are saved by the NAND Flash.
- system configuration by PM5 is possible.
- CoProcessing boards are ignored: no VoIP and RAS functionalities.
- Internet Access services are not available.
- the VMU data is not backed up; only the following services of the voice server are offered: 20 mi-
nutes message storage capacity, no welcome messages, no conversation recording, no name re-
cording for new mailboxes (when the system works on NAND Flash, there is no need for a mailbox
to have a name in order to consult it; however, it is possible to record the name via the customiza-
tion menu).
- NMC tickets are not saved, but new tickets can be generated; only 1,000 taxation tickets can be
stored.
- only the system's first language is available (for voice prompts and station displays).
- recordings of conversations, welcome messages and names are not kept.
- configuration data modified in the last 24 hours (maximum) are lost.
- only one software version is stored in NAND Flash; it is not possible to download a new version
using PM5.

When the system switches to minimum service, a hardware message (message 249) is emitted, indi-
cating a hard disk problem.
