In bpm’online, the Avaya integration functionality has a separate license. You need to form the license request, send it to our service team, upload the received licenses file into the system and finally, distribute the licenses between the users.
Note
See more details about licensing in the “Software licensing” and “License distribution” articles.
The integration can be performed if all prior Avaya configurations are performed by the telephony administrator.
Setting bpm’online messaging service
The messaging service allows you to connect bpm’online to the telephony using TSAPI integration protocol to connect to Avaya and distribute call events between bpm’online users.
Note
To ensure that TSAPI protocol works correctly, use the DMCC Dashboard utility.
The TSAPI basic user license is required for TSAPI protocol. The number of the licenses should correspond to the number of bpm’online users who simultaneously use integration with Avaya telephony.
Note
To integrate with Avaya telephony, it is required to have Avaya Application Enablement Services (AES) component within the telecommunication system. The integration is available for AES version of 5.2 server and up.
1.Run the BPMonline Messaging Service Install.msi file on the message exchange server and proceed with the installation.
2.Specify the following parameters in the “Terrasoft.Messaging.Service.exe.config” configuration file:
<avaya serverIp=”” port=”4721” useSecureSockets=”False” ctiUser=”” psw=”” protocolVersion=”http://www.ecma-international.org/standards/ecma-323/csta/ed3/priv6” switchName=”CM”
See the list of configuration file parameters in the table below.
