71 Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) Lab 28 Programming a Dial Out (Optional) In this lab, you will program the Path Interflow Dialing List to inform callers that they can dial out of queue to leave a voice mail message. A voice mail mailbox is needed for the caller to leave a message in. This mailbox must be Call Re-Routed to the Voice Mail Hunt Group. Part 1 - You will add a voice mailbox for callers to leave a message. Step Task Observations 1 Add a new voice mailbox N Initialize the voice mailbox. 3 In the User and Device Configuration form, add a Single Line Key on any phone with a directory number the same as the voice mailbox number N901. This key can be on any phone or PKM, even a phantom phone or PKM, since you are going to reroute the call to the voice mail hunt group. 4 In the Call Rerouting Always Alternatives form, configure Always Alternative Number 2 to reroute all calls to the voice mail hunt group. 5 In the Call Rerouting form, assign Always Alternative Number 2 to the Single Line Key N901. Part 2 - You will program Mailbox Message Waiting Indicator Keys. Step Task Observations 6 In the User and Device Configuration form, program a Message Waiting Indication Key, N901, on each phone you want to have an indication that a caller has left a message in the mailbox. 7-33

72 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Part 3 - Next, you will program ACD Path Interflow Dialing Lists.

Enter N901 against Digit 1 Redirection Digits 7-34 MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

73 Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) Part 4 - Now you will add the ACD Path Interflow Dialing List to the ACD Path. Step Task Expected Result/Observation 8 In the ACD Paths form, select Path N For Recording 1: Path Interflow Dialing List, enter 1. This is the Path Interflow Dialing List created earlier. 10 Set the Release Digit Receiver After Recording field to No. Note: If this field is set to Yes for a particular recording, callers can dial out during the RAD Greeting, but not once it has finished. If the field is set to No, then the caller will be able to dial out following completion of the RAD Greeting too. This capability is available until a recording with different programming is played, the call is answered, or the caller clears the line. 11 Set the DTMF Receiver Unavailable Action to Skip. Note: The possible settings are as follows: Play RAD if the RAD message is to be played and the call will continue without the capability to dial out of the path during the recording. Skip if the RAD message is not played and the call will continue without the capability to dial out of the path during the recording. Divert if the call is to be diverted to the destination defined by the DTMF Receiver Unavailable Answer Point Directory Number field. 12 Note that you would normally re-record the RAD message played to the caller to inform them that they can dial out of the path. For this lab, you do not need to re-record the message. Just remember that you can dial out of the path. 7-35

74 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Part 5 - It is time to test the ability to dial out of a path. Step Task Expected Result/Observation 13 Make a call to path N Press 1 during or after the RAD Greeting.

Step Task Expected Result/Observation 1 In the ACD Paths form, select Path N Set the Overflow 1 Agent Skill Group ID to N503. N503 is an Agent Skill Group programmed in a previous lab. 3 Set the Primary Agent Skill Group Overflow Timer to 30 seconds. 4 Set the same values for path N Log in agent N201, who is in the Primary Agent Skill Group. Log in agent N207, who is in the Overflow 1 Agent Skill Group for Path N Make sure no other agents are logged in and that no agents are in Make Busy or DND. 7 Call Path N011. Does the call overflow? What happens and why? 8 Answer the call, but don t hang up. The call should be ringing on N Make another call to N011. Does the call overflow? If yes, when? 10 Answer the second call, hang up, and wait for the Work Timer to expire. 11 Make another call to N011. What happens if the agent in the Primary Agent Skill Group finishes their call before the Overflow timer expires? Note If a call is ringing an agent s phone, it is not queued, and therefore will not overflow. 7-37

76 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Lab 30 Programming a Path Interlow Step Task Expected Result/Observation 1 In the ACD Paths form, select path N Program the following options: Interflow Enabled Yes Interflow Timeout 45 seconds Must be greater than the total of all Overflow Timers.

Make sure no other agents are logged in and that no agents are in Make Busy or DND. 4 Call Path N011. What happens after 45 seconds? 5 In the ACD Paths form, select N011 and add an Interflow Point Directory Number, which can be any valid directory number on your system. 6 Make another call to path N011. What happens after 45 seconds? Setting the Allow Overflow to Interflow Before Time Out feature allows an overflow time out on the last programmed overflow group to cause the waiting ACD call to interflow to the interflow point before the Interflow Timer expires. Step Task Expected Result/Observation 7 In ACD Path N011, enable Allow Overflow to Interflow Before Time Out and set the Overflow 1 Agent Skill Group Overflow Timer to 5 seconds. 8 Call Path N011. At what point does the call Interflow? Note The Allow Overflow to Interflow Before Time Out feature works in conjunction with the Predictive Overflow function of the Agent Skill Groups. Note If a call is ringing an agent s phone, it is not queued, and therefore will not interflow MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

78 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Lab 31 Setting Predictive Overflow (Optional) In this lab, try to prove that Predictive Overflow works. The average call duration is 25 seconds and has only one Active Agent in the Primary Agent Skill Group. The Primary Agent Skill Group Overflow Timer is already set to 30 seconds. With one call waiting, the calculation would work out to 25 seconds. That is less than the Overflow Timer, so the caller will stay queued. When a second call arrives, the calculation would work out to 50 seconds, which is greater than the Overflow Timer. The caller will overflow immediately, meaning the system has determined that the caller would eventually overflow anyway because the queue is busy. Note Predictive Overflow takes about three or four seconds to perform the calculation and make the decision whether to Overflow or not. So you need two calls waiting before the calculation is greater than the Overflow Timer. Average Call Duration X # of Active Agents # of Calls Waiting > Overflow Timer 25 seconds X 2 calls 1 agent > 30 seconds 50 seconds > 30 seconds True, so Overflow 7-40 MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

79 Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) Step Task Expected Result/Observation 1 In the ACD Paths form, select path N Set the Primary Agent Skill Group Predictive Overflow Average Call Duration timer to 25 seconds. 3 Log in agent N201, who is in the Primary Agent Skill Group. Log in agent N207, who is in the Overflow 1 Agent Skill Group for Path N011. Make sure no other agents are logged in and that no agents are in Make Busy or DND. 4 Call to N011 and answer it. The agent in the Primary Agent Skill Group is now busy. 5 Make a second call to N011. The call should not overflow immediately. 6 Make a third call to N011. What happens? 7 Why does Predictive Overflow kick in immediately if N201 and N207 are logged in, and N201 is Make Busy? If you re not sure, try testing it to see and check the Group Alert keys to get the data to put in the formula. 7-41

For example, a record that sends a call to Lab 3 would change from: digits using Route 3 to digits using Route 3 NOTE: If Direct IP Routing was used, these digits may already exist. If so, you may delete them. The ARS Digits Dialed form now uses the CEID Digits. 9-4 MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

97 Clusters in a Voice Network Create and Share at the Cluster Scope Step Task Expected Result 2 In the Cluster Elements form on the master element only, verify there is a single-member cluster with the local element as its only member. 3 In the Cluster Elements form on the master element only: Enter the new name CLUSTER. Leave the Primary Node ID (PNI) field blank. At the bottom of the form, add CEID digits to the local element. At the bottom of the form, add each cluster member. Use the PBX/CEID Number and CEID Digits provided by the instructor. 4 In the Network Elements form on the master element only, select all remote elements. All labs that implemented Hot Desking must have a cluster. The PBX/CEID Number and the CEID Digits are programmed for local and remote elements. An asterisk has been placed next to the YES in the Data Sharing column, identifying these elements as ones which you have previously shared data with. 5 Now you must start sharing to incorporate the new Cluster Members scope. In the Cluster Elements form on the master element only, select all remote nodes and then select Start Sharing. 6 In the Cluster Elements form on the master element only, select all remote nodes and then select Sync. Do not select any forms yet. Perform a Sync to verify the process. 7 In the Cluster Elements form on the master element only, select all remote nodes and then select Sync. Expand General Systems and select only the Telephone Directory. The Telephone Directory form is shared with all other nodes. Select OK. 9-5

98 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Test Clustering Functions Step Task Expected Result 8 On all cluster members, examine the entries in the Remote Directory Numbers form. 9 On all cluster members, examine the entries in the Telephone Directory form. 10 On all cluster members, make calls to the other elements in the cluster using: Four-digit DNs, as before. CEID Digits followed by the DN. Users will never need to dial the CEID digits, but you may use them to verify ARS functionality 11 On one element, verify that user changes are synchronized automatically across the cluster by performing the following checks. In the User and Device Configuration form, make a change to the name of a user. Verify that the change replicates across the cluster. Create a new Hot Desk User or use one already programmed. Log the user in on a set at your controller, then on a set that belongs to another cluster element. 12 From a set on the remote node, use the Phonebook softkey to look up and dial a user on the 3300 ICP. DNs from the other cluster elements are listed, along with the correct CEID number. All DNs in the cluster are listed, along with either a CEID number or Internal. Calls can be made across the cluster. ARS is using the new CEID Digits + 4 pattern for call routing. Changes to user information are automatically shared with all other cluster members via SDS. The Hot Desk user is automatically logged off of the first element. 9-6 MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

101 Integrated Directory Services (IDS) Module 10: Integrated Directory Services (IDS) Lab 1 Implementing IDS on MCD In this lab, you will be using the: User and Device Templates form. User Roles form. Cluster Elements form. User Service Data to LDAP Attributes Mapping form. IDS Connection from. User and Device Configuration form. Step Task Expected Result 1 Create a template. Because you are limited on what information you can add via IDS, the best practice is to create one or more templates that can auto populate the user form with data beyond just COS, DN and Name. 10-1

102 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Step Task Expected Result 2 Assign the template to a role. Templates and Roles allow you to populate repeating information for a range of users via templates and roles. Assign a role to a user, and that role will reference a template. This is important for IDS because you actually reference the name of the role on the AD server when you add a new user. Step Task Expected Result 3 In the Cluster Elements form, note the network element names. They are used when adding the AD profile to determine what the Home Element of that user will be. Step Task Expected Result 4 PNI In Use or Not? If the cluster is using a PNI, then that number must be added at the AD side so the MCD controller sees that it is a valid DN. For example, we don t enter 2020, we enter MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

103 Integrated Directory Services (IDS) Step Task Expected Result 5 Define the Active Directory Attributes You may have to redefine the LDAP Attribute mapping to match the customer s existing configuration. In this example, I set the Fax telephone number attribute to map to the User Role properties on the MCD platform. 10-3

104 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Step Task Expected Result 6 IDS Connection The screen shown below is an example of the programming for the AD attributes on the local domain. You must use a domain account with at least READ privileges to the AD attributes. Multiple OUs can be added in the Search Context field separated by a semi-colon. Step Task Expected Result 7 Schedule IDS Synch Schedule an incremental synch (just look for changes) that will run on an interval of every 15 minutes from now on MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc

105 Integrated Directory Services (IDS) Step Task Expected Result 8 Test Adding a User When adding a new user to the Active Directory, the administrator must ensure they add the user properties as they are mapped in the previous steps. If the controller references a PNI, then it must be added as part of the user s telephone number. In this screen, extension 2111 is prefaced with the PNI of

106 MCD Advanced Installation and Maintenance Course Step Task Expected Result 9 The Telephones tab is used to also define which element will be referenced as the home element for the user. By default, this is the IP Phone attribute. In this screen, the fax telephone attribute has been set to reference a specific User Role on the network element.

The DHCP Options change form for Options 125 is displayed. The PC is designated as the communication device for the IP Phone Analyzer. The sets will receive the updated DHCP Option Enter in the DHCP Lease Range for your lab. This will begin the data collection between the IP Phone Analyzer and the IP sets with the updated Option Make IP-to-IP device calls on the same network, then across the network to another lab. View the status change as the sets establish a call path. While making calls between the IP sets that are in different compression zones, view whether or not the G.729a, G.711, or G722.1 codecs are being used. With IP Trunk route set to Auto, you should see: IP to IP sets will remain uncompressed in the same zone IP to IP sets across zones will be compressed 12-2 MCD Advanced I&M Lab Workbook_UK_5.0_3.doc
