GateScope Integrated, real-time monitoring for your voice gateways GateScope enables your Cisco Voice Gateway to provide actionable real time data metrics regarding the voice infrastructure (T1s) for your ICM / UCCE. GateScope reads CPU and memory utilization and PRI D and B channel status from your voice gateways, reporting current trunk information directly to ICM/UCCE. This allows you to see how many trunks are in use and in service in a real time report, as well as use this information in routing/scripting. The GateScope configuration tool allows grouping of individual T1s into as many ICM Trunk Groups and Network Trunk Groups as desired for intelligent pre- and post-routing. This functionality allows users to group their inbound trunks from their long distance carrier(s), PBX tie lines, IVR trunks and other facilities via GateScope in order to provide unsurpassed survivability during a voice gateway or voice network outage. GateScope allows you to configure thresholds for CPU and memory so that spikes in CPU or memory usage would effectively take the T1s on that gateway "out of production". This is accomplished by reporting these lines as out of service to the ICM/UCCE central controller, and reversed by automatically recovering the lines when the CPU or memory drops below acceptable levels. Similarily, if the D channel status is offline for any specific PRI, the software will make sure that all associated B channels are reported as offline, thereby preventing the pre-routed delivery of calls to a T1 or channel that cannot handle it. GateScope also offers an optional log output to a database server so you can view the complete details of the gateway polls through your reporting tool(s) of choice. The log outputs contain all the gateway events associated with GateScope as well as the specifics of what is being reported to ICM, giving you a first-hand account of your voice lines and how ICM is reading them. CALL ROUTING Create Trunk and Network Trunk Groups for your voice gateway T1s which can be referenced in your pre- and post-routing ICM/UCCE scripts. REPORTING Display real time Trunk Group statistics alongside your other relevant call center data, as well as specific detail on gateway utilization thresholds and alerts.

Active/Active redundant servers are possible for each data center location providing seamless transition of the application in the event of a hardware failure. 2 ICM/UCCE COMMUNICATION As GateScope is constantly monitoring the gateways, it is also communicating with ICM or UCCE through a PIM process on a dedicated Peripheral Gateway (PG). Redundant PG pairs allow for automatic failover from one GateScope server to another in the event of hardware or network failures. 3 CALL ROUTING ADMINISTRATION GateScope provides the T1 status through configured ICM Trunk and Network Trunk Groups, giving Script Administrators the ability to create routing rules that are aware of the voice network s status. This allows calls to be automatically re-routed to other facilities, network messaging to be played, or other customer friendly actions instead of dropped calls or dead air often experienced by overloaded gateways. 4 FLEXIBILITY GateScope can monitor gateways connected to the PSTN, your ACD / UCCE deployment(s), even IVR Farms connected by VoIP trunking. 5 DEPLOYMENT GateScope has a wide variety of deployment configurations, including a single PG, single application server model for small networks; a single group of co-located GateScope servers for centralized datacenters or ingress points; or distributed application and PG servers for large, branch-type network deployments. 6 REPORTING The ICM / UCCE database will be populated with real time and historical data regarding the individual trunk groups through the standard AWDB database. GateScope can also provide detailed event logs to an additional database which will allow users to monitor the gateway alarms and alerts (and how they impact call routing) in real time through tools such as Aceyus 4.5.

RealDirector Web based tools for enhanced Cisco ICM call routing Aceyus RealDirector software is a Web-based interface that enhances the Cisco ICM and UCCE call routing platforms. RealDirector provides your support staff with the ability to modify ICM routing rules at a moment s notice without logging into an HDS or AW. The standard call routing tools that are included are the 7-Day Hours of Operation manager, with holiday and special meeting override capabilities, as well as a Percent Allocation application which allows users to direct call volume to alternate destinations without needing to access the ICM Script Editor. RealDirector also provides the ability for system managers to create custom call routing tools in order to manage any user variables that are referenced in their call routing scripts. KEY FEATURES 1 HOURS OF OPERATION Control your call center s hours of operation at the site level and at the individual queue or skill level. Included with this tool is the ability to override these settings and immediately close sites in case of emergencies or meetings, along with the ability to keep centers open longer to cover shifts for other sites. 2 PERCENT ALLOCATION The Percent Allocation tool gives you the ability to manage outsourced call volume, pace your customers exposure to new script roll outs, or even direct call volume when PGs or other network infrastructure components are down. The best part is that once the RealDirector integration is completed, these updates can be made without any changes to the actual ICM scripts that route the affected volume. 3 CUSTOM TOOLS With RealDirector s simple interface, system administrators can quickly establish new call routing tools. Within minutes you can create screens that will allow you to control parameters to affect call overflow (e.g. service calls routing to sales when > 5 agents are available, or service calls to sales when service ASA > 60 seconds), special message playback (inclement weather, long queue times, etc), or just about any parameter you can think of. 4 AUDIT TRAIL All tool activity is logged in the Audit trail, providing administrators an instant record of who is making routing changes and when. Audit reports can be run ad-hoc or automatically scheduled and emailed on a daily basis. 5 ACCESS CONTROLS Access to the various tools within RealDirector is controlled via group management. You can specify which tools a given user can access, and even which specific objects within a tool that the user can modify, thereby giving you the ability to hide sensitive controls from certain groups or users. 6 ACTIVE DIRECTORY INTEGRATION RealDirector, like other Aceyus products, can completely integrate with your Active Directory, allowing all the password and group memberships to be managed via your Windows domain.
