Administering an extension exclusively for the DMCC softphone

About this task

Follow these steps from a Communication Manager SAT to administer an extension exclusively for the DMCC softphone. For an example of the form, see Adding stations.

Procedure

  1. Type add station next to add a station. Add as many stations as you need for your application.
  2. Complete the STATION form as follows:
    1. In the Type field (for station type), choose an IP set type or a DCP set type, as appropriate.
    2. If you chose a DCP set type, in the Port field, do one of the following:
      • If it is an actual physical set, type <port number>.

      • If it is not an actual physical set, type x.

      noteNote

      If you chose an IP set type, the port automatically becomes IP.

    3. In the Security Code field, type a <numeric security code>.

      The security code can consist of four to eight digits. AE Services recommends that you use an eight digit code for maximum security. Additionally, AE Services recommends that you use a unique security code for each DMCC station. Whenever you provide a security code, make sure you maintain a secure record of it so you can use it again. You will need to use this security code when your application is registering with the DMCC softphone.

    4. In the IP SoftPhone field, type y.
    5. Administer any buttons necessary for your application. For example, to administer the share-talk feature, administer share-talk as one of the buttons.
