VMSC - MAS - Telephony Interface Dialog Box (Set Emulation)

Note: For a detailed overview of Messaging Application Server (MAS) configuration in the Voice Mail System Configuration (VMSC) application, see Overview of MAS Configuration in VMSC.

This topic describes how to use the Telephony Interface dialog box to configure ports, if you are using Digital Set Emulation (DSE) integration.

You can set the playback volume and configure the number of ports that connect the MAS with the Private Branch Exchange (PBX). You can enable ports and configure properties for each of them.

The Telephony Interface dialog box has either one or two tabs, depending on your configuration. There is always a General tab, as described in this topic below.

Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) is a form of integration available only with NT M-1 PBXs using Digital Set Emulation integration. You can use the ACD tab, to configure settings for agent-based ACD and position-based ACD. See VMSC - MAS - Telephony Interface - ACD Tab (Set Emulation).

Launching the Screen

In the Voice Mail System Configuration window, click the voice mail domain.

Click Message Application Servers.

Click on the MAS you want to configure.

Double-click the Telephony Interface.

The system displays the Telephony Interface dialog box for the selected MAS with the General tab selected.
