About Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound

Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound is part of the Nortel Contact Center


portfolio. Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound provides inbound and outbound
voice and e-mail features for the Contact Center.

Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound components


Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound consists of the following components:
„ Multimedia database: This component is installed on the Contact Center
Multimedia/Outbound server and is an InterSystems Caché database that
stores all contact center activity. All outbound contact information,
incoming e-mail, web requests, and associated responses are stored in a
structured format within the database. Information about outbound
campaigns is also stored in this database.
„ E-mail Manager: This component is installed on the Contact Center
Multimedia/Outbound server. The E-mail Manager connects to the e-mail
server at regular intervals. The E-mail Manager reads e-mail messages from
the customer, processes the messages through a set of rules, and then stores
the e-mail message and information about the customer in the database.
Outgoing e-mail, generated from the e-mail responses stored in the
database, is sent to the e-mail server.
„ Outbound Management Campaign Management Tool: This component
is installed on the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server and
accessed using the Contact Center Manager Administration application.
Use the Outbound Campaign Management Tool to create, modify, and
monitor outbound campaigns. An outbound campaign is a series of
outbound calls for one specific purpose, for example, a customer survey or
a sales promotion. Use the Outbound Campaign Management Tool to:
„ define campaign parameters

„ import and review call data

„ create agent call scripts

„ monitor campaign progress

„ export campaign data

20 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Getting started

„ Contact Center Agent Desktop interface: This component is installed on


the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server. Agents use Internet
Explorer to connect to the Multimedia server to retrieve the Agent Desktop
interface. The Communication Control Toolkit pushes e-mail messages,
web requests, outbound contacts, and voice calls to the Agent Desktop
interface. The Agent Desktop interface uses web services to retrieve e-mail
and outbound campaign information, and customer details and history from
the Multimedia database. Web services are also used to send e-mail replies
and save outbound call details in the Multimedia database.
E-mail contacts are presented to agents through the Contact Center Agent
Desktop interface, where agents can:
„ verify customer information

„ access historical e-mail to and from the customer

„ create responses to customer inquiries

„ provide a closed reason (if configured)

When an outbound campaign is running, contacts are presented to agents


through the Contact Center Agent Desktop interface, where the agents can:
„ preview contact information

„ review call scripts (if configured)

„ save scripts

„ select a disposition code

„ Multimedia Administrator: This component is installed on the Contact


Center Multimedia/Outbound server. The Multimedia Administrator
provides administrative and management capabilities.
„ Migration utility: This utility migrates existing data from Symposium
Web Center Portal Release 4.0 in the Sybase database to the new
Multimedia database in Caché.
„ Redundancy Server: The Redundancy server is a warm standby server
you can install to mimic the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server.
The Redundancy server is available to use in case of failure of the primary
server.

The following diagram provides an overview of Contact Center Multimedia/


Outbound with Contact Center Manager Server for Release 6.0.

Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Getting started

Licensing
Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound is licensed with the following options:
1. Agent capabilities are licensed as inbound voice, outbound voice, and e-
mail. Licensing is enforced by Contact Center Manager Server. The
Contact Center Manager Server does not allow contacts to be routed to an
agent who is not configured with the specific media attributes of the contact
to be routed. Agent media attributes are configured on a per-medium basis
(outbound or e-mail) in Contact Center Manager Administration.
Note: The Outbound license type encompasses scheduled callbacks
inserted into the system using web services in a third-party integration or
web site integration. The e-mail license encompasses all contacts that come
in via the E-Mail Manager, for example, e-mail, fax, SMS, and scanned
white mail.
2. The Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server is licensed and is
provided with the base package of the system. The license must be present
for the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server database and web
services to start.
3. Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound Redundancy is licensed. The license
must be present so you can install the Multimedia Redundancy server.
4. Contact Center Outbound is licensed separately. In addition to the Contact
Center Multimedia base package, the Contact Center Outbound base
package is required. The two licences must be present so that you can start
the Outbound Configuration Management Tool.

For more information about the specific licensing for your component, see
Appendix B, “Feature licensing.”

Installation and Maintenance Guide 23

Network components

Server components
The Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server resides on the Nortel subnet.
The Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound gathers information about agents,
skillsets, and route points from Contact Center Manager Administration for
administrators to configure the Multimedia and Outbound settings. In turn, the
multimedia-specific configurations, such as the outbound scheduler or e-mail
rules are returned to Contact Center Manager Administration to route contacts.

The Contact Center Manager server resides on the Nortel subnet and handles the
routing and reporting of contacts in the Contact Center.

The Communication Control Toolkit resides on the Nortel subnet and maps
resources such as users and workstations that are configured in Contact Center
Manager Administration to active telephone lines.

Clients
From a client, an agent can type a URL into a web browser to pull the Contact
Center Agent Desktop application from the Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound server to their desktop. The agent uses the Contact Center Agent
Desktop to handle the following types of contacts: inbound voice, outbound
voice, e-mail, and web communications.

From any client running the Contact Center Manager Administration web client,
supervisors or administrators can open the Outbound Campaign Management
Tool to create outbound campaigns and load them in to the Contact multimedia
database for execution.

Each client must have the following software installed:


„ Windows 2000 (service pack 4) or Windows XP (service pack 2)
„ Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or later
„ Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 software and .NET service pack 1
„ security file CCMM_Security_Profile.msi

Getting started Standard 1.0

New in this release

This section provides a brief overview of the new features offered in Contact
Center Multimedia/Outbound 6.0.

Features

Outbound Campaign Management Tool


Use the Outbound Campaign Management Tool (OCMT) to create, modify, and
monitor outbound campaigns. A campaign is a group of outgoing calls from the
call center for a specific purpose, for example, customer satisfaction surveys.

The outbound administrator sets up and manages outbound campaigns. Use the
Outbound Campaign Management Tool to complete the following tasks:
„ Create campaigns with parameters such as start time, end time, and an
optional call script.
„ Import contact data. You can download contact data from a text file, from a
ODBC-compliant database, or you can enter the data manually. The
outbound contact data contains a list of names, addresses, telephone
numbers, and other recorded information.
„ Review contact data. When the data is loaded successfully in the database,
the call data is displayed in the Create and Append window on the Call
Settings tab. You can use this window to review and, if necessary, modify
the outbound contact data.
„ Develop and review agent call scripts.
„ Monitor the status of all campaigns, modify or cancel campaigns, or
resubmit or cancel any call within a campaign.

Contact Center Agent Desktop


Contact Center 6.0 provides a new Contact Center Agent Desktop. The Agent
Desktop is deployed using Microsoft Smart Client technology. The agent enters
a URL in Internet Explorer, and the Contact Center Agent Desktop is
downloaded using Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 onto the agent’s computer.
The Agent Desktop is fully authenticated and digitally signed. Agents use the
interface to respond to contacts.

Step 3. Install your remote support access


tool

Nortel recommends that you install and configure a remote support access tool
before you install Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound so you can access
technical support during the installation procedure, if required.

tool. To install and configure the Host Only version of pcAnywhere version 11.5
on the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server, see “Installing pcAnywhere
11.5 as your remote support access tool,” on page 47.

Alternatively, Nortel accepts Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection for


Administration as a remote support access tool for customers on a Windows
2003 platform. This alternative is provided for customers whose security policy
does not allow pcAnywhere or for customers who are using Microsoft Remote
Desktop Connection as the remote support tool for all computers on their
network. For details about enabling Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection for
Administration, see “Using Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection as your
remote support access tool,” on page 59.

Note: Nortel recommends that you install only one of the supported remote
access tools (pcAnywhere or Remote Desktop Connection) on the Contact
Center Multimedia/Outbound server.

Nortel provides guidelines for setting up remote support using a virtual private
network (VPN). For more information, see the Nortel Contact Center Planning
and Engineering Guide.

Step 6. Provide local users with the Log on as


a service right

You must configure two user types to access Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound software. These user types are:
„ CCMMOPSUSR —The E-mail Manager service runs under the
CCMMOPSUSR account instead of the local system account so that this
service has permissions to stream attachment files to the inbound folder and
attach files to outgoing e-mail from the outbound folder. These permissions
must be attached to the folders. You must also set the password of the
CCMMOPSUSR so that the password never expires.
„ IUSR_<Servername>—The IUSR account is an IIS account used for all
communication between the Multimedia server and the Agent Desktop over
HTTPS (except for Communication Control Toolkit events over a
configurable port). Agents read and attach files through HTTP rather than
an open share, therefore, the attachment directories are defined as web
folders in IIS.

Note: You must configure CCMMOPSUSR only if you are licensed for e-mail
in your contact center.

Adding the users


1 On the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > Administrative Tools >
Local Security Policy.
Result: The Local Security Settings window appears.

Access on a shared folder is determined through two sets of permission entries:


the permissions set on the share (called share permissions) and the permissions
set on the folder (called NTFS file and folder permissions).

You must provide access to a shared location for inbound and outbound e-mail
attachments. These shared locations must be shared for the user types you
configured in “Step 6. Provide local users with the Log on as a service right” on
page 74.

104 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server

Step 13. Configure access to client


applications

The Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound Campaign Management Tool
applications are based on Microsoft .NET technology. The .NET deployment
model is based on clients pulling the latest version of an application from a Web
server. This .NET deployment provides the benefit of deploying a thick client
using thin-client technology and the ability to automatically update the
applications based on updates and patches on the server.

Accessing the Web server introduces the potential for a client to download
malicious code. The following information provides the procedures to set the
security and to deploy the Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound
Campaign Management Tool with minimal risk.

The Nortel Multimedia security policy file, CCMM_Security_Policy.msi


(Microsoft Installer), contains a policy level for the client to download and run
assemblies with a particular strong name. A strong name consists of the
assembly identity (name, version number, private key) and a public key. The
Outbound Campaign Management Tool and the Contact Center Agent Desktop
assemblies are digitally signed with a strong name based on the private key.
After it is installed, the CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file instructs the clients to
trust the assemblies with the strong name assigned to the Outbound Campaign
Management Tool and the Contact Center Agent Desktop. You can install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file while you are logged on to the server as the
local administrator.

Installing the CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file


You must install the current Nortel CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file that is
included in the latest Service Update. For more information about the latest
Service Update, visit www.nortel.com.

There are three methods to install the security policy:


„ a manual installation, recommended to test the client applications on one or
two clients

Installation and Maintenance Guide 105


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

„ SMS, recommended by Nortel, to install the msi file on multiple clients


„ Windows group policy to install the .msi file on multiple clients

Note: If a client is outside the Multimedia server domain, then make the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file available to the client from a secure network
drive.

Manual installation
1 Log on to the client as the local administrator.
2 Ensure Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration Tool is not open.
3 Double-click CCMM_Security_Policy.msi to install the file.
Result: The security policy file is applied.

SMS
Because installation procedures through an SMS system can vary from one
company to the next, follow your company guidelines to install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file for the SMS clients on your network. For more
information, see the documentation on the Microsoft web site at
http://www.microsoft.com.

Note: An experienced system administrator can deploy the


CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file.

Group policy
In addition to using an SMS server, a system administrator can install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file on clients within the same domain using a
Windows group policy. For details, see document 324750 on the Microsoft
knowledge base.

Confirming that the security policy is applied


To confirm that the security policy is applied on any client, perform the
following check:
1 On the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel >
Administrative Tools > Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Configuration.
2 Expand Runtime Security Policy > Machine > Code Groups > All_Code.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 133


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

Step 24. Configure the sample multimedia


scripts

Scripts for Contact Center Multimedia correctly route multimedia contacts.


Sample scripts are provided in the scripting application. Nortel recommends that
you integrate these sample scripts with your existing Contact Center Manager
Server scripts so that multimedia contacts are routed correctly; however, you
may need to customize the sample scripts.

For more information about Multimedia scripts, see the Contact Center
Scripting Guide.

The sample scripts demonstrate the following functionality:


„ queuing a contact to a multimedia skillset using the contact
intrinsics %SKILLSET%SKILLSET and %PRIORITY%PRIORITY
„ queuing a contact to a multimedia agent using the contact
intrinsics %AGENT%AGENT and %PRIORITY%PRIORITY
„ handling scheduled contacts that have a callback date and time set using the
contact intrinsics %DATE%DATE, %TIME%TIME and NEXTYEAR
„ queuing contacts that were pulled by an agent using the Agent Desktop
using the contact intrinsic QUEUETYPE

The following sample scripts are included:


„ c_Master_Handles_Multimedia—This script passes execution for
multimedia contacts to the relevant primary script for the contact type. You
must add necessary voice handling sections to the master script.
„ EM_Email_Primary—This primary script is executed for e-mail contacts.
The script passes execution to the c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler script. E-
mail contacts are pegged against this application in both historical reports
and real-time displays.
„ OB_Outbound_Primary—This primary script is executed for outbound
contacts. The script passes execution to the c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler
script. Outbound contacts are pegged against this application in both
historical reports and real-time displays.

134 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server

„ WC_Web_Primary—This primary script is executed for web


communications contacts. The script passes execution to the
c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler script. Web communications contacts are
pegged against this application in both historical reports and real-time
displays.
„ c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler—This script checks if the current date
and time is greater than the callback date and time of the contact. If so, the
script immediately passes execution to the c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact
script; otherwise, the script stays in a loop until the callback date and time
arrives and passes execution to the c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact script.
„ c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact—This script checks if the contact is
queued directly to an agent. If so, the script attempts to queue the contact to
the agent. If the preferred agent is not logged on, the script queues the
multimedia contact to its assigned skillset.

Importing sample scripts


When you install Contact Center Manager Administration, the system
automatically installs the sample scripts in the following folder on Contact
Center Manager Administration server:

C:\Program Files\Nortel Networks\WClient\Server\SampleScripts where C: is


the drive on which you installed Contact Center Manager Administration.

You can use the sample Multimedia scripts in Contact Center Manager by
importing them into either an existing script or a new script in the Scripting
component. The Import command adds the text of the imported sample script at
the end of any text in the current script.

You can import a sample script into Contact Center Manager Administration in
two ways:
„ To import a sample script into an existing script, in the Script Manager,
double-click the script into which you want to import the sample script. The
script opens in the Script Editor.
„ To import a sample script into a new, blank script, right-click on the Script
Manager folder and select New from the resulting menu. The Script Editor
opens with a blank starting page.

Step 33. Map users to addresses, terminals,


and contact center users

Before you map a configured user to another Communication Control Toolkit


resource, you must first make sure that the other resource exists and that it is
configured correctly.

Note: You are not required to map terminals to agents if the agents handle only
e-mail contacts.

Map Contact Center users to Windows users, so that the Windows users have
access to the contact center software functionality. For example, when Contact
Center Agent Desktop is deployed, mapping a Contact Center user to a Windows
user identifies the Agent ID assigned to the user in Contact Center Manager
Administration.

Map Windows users to terminals or addresses to assign a communication point


to the Contact Center user, or agent, to handle contacts. For example, when CCT
identifies an incoming call is destined for a specific user, because the terminals
and addresses are mapped to the Windows user, CCT rings the correct terminal/
extension where the Windows user is working.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 187


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

Step 34. Understand the contact types

You can use the Multimedia Administrator to configure the contact types in the
Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound component of Contact Center, including
outbound, and e-mail.

The Operations and Administration Maintenance (OAM) service retrieves


information about skillsets, route points, and agents from the Contact Center
Manager server, and provides the data to the Multimedia Administrator to
configure Multimedia properties for skillset and agents.

You can use Contact Center Manager Administration to create skillsets and route
points. For more information about creating skillsets and route points, see the
Contact Center Manager Administrator Guide.

Configuring the outbound contacts


Only one step is required to configure outbound contacts: configure the route
points for all outbound skillsets. To begin configuring the outbound properties,
see “Step 35. Log on to the Multimedia Administrator” on page 191.

Configuring the E-Mail Manager


Use the E-Mail Manager to communicate with customers over the internet.
Agents and customers communicate using e-mail messages. The E-mail
Manager provides the following functionality:
„ the ability of the contact center to receive e-mail requests from multiple
mailboxes and multiple servers for presentation to agents as multimedia
contacts
„ intelligent routing of e-mail to deliver each e-mail message to the agent
who has the subject knowledge to respond, send an auto-response, or close
the contact
„ an Agent Desktop interface for agents to respond efficiently to customers
without need for a desktop e-mail client
„ easy referencing of the thread of conversation between the customer and the
agent

188 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server

„ the ability to select a contact type based on the e-mail message and
attachments received, such as text messages (SMS), voice mail, or fax
messages
„ the ability to handle contacts using one method when the contact center is
open and another method when the contact center is closed

Several steps are required to configure the E-mail Manager. To begin


configuring the E-Mail Manager, see “Step 35. Log on to the Multimedia
Administrator” on page 191.

Some definitions to know


The following is a list of definitions that you need to understand before
configuring the contact types in Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound.
„ A skillset is a label applied to a set of skills, capabilities, or knowledge that
an agent requires to respond to a given request. The skillsets are retrieved
from the Contact Center Manager database. You must select a route point
for a skillset used to route outbound contacts.
„ A route point is a location on the open queue that queues incoming calls to
and runs through a script on the Contact Center Manager Server.
„ An autoresponse is an e-mail message sent to a customer with no agent
interaction. An auto-response can be an intelligent response, such as a sales
promotion flyer, or an acknowledgement, such as “We received your e-mail
and will respond to you within three days.”
„ A recipient mailbox is a container on the e-mail server that holds e-mail
messages. Standard mailboxes are monitored by the Contact Center E-mail
Manager, which routes the e-mail to an agent or group of agents (skillset)
based on an analytical search of the sender address, the recipient address,
the subject and body of an e-mail for predetermined keywords, or a
combination of these. The e-mail server must be compliant with Post Office
Protocol 3 (POP3) and Standard Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
„ An e-mail alias is not a real e-mail account; an alias is an address that
forwards all e-mail messages it receives to another e-mail account. For
example, the mailbox general@magscripts.com can have the aliases
carz@magsubscriptions.com and planez@magsubscriptions.com. E-mail
messages addressed to either of these aliases are forwarded to the
general@magscripts.com mailbox. To route e-mail messages differently

Installation and Maintenance Guide 189


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

depending on the alias to which they are addressed, create a recipient


mailbox as an alias in Multimedia Administrator and then create routing
rules based on the alias.
Aliases can be useful to filter e-mail messages. For example, you can define
an alias for a short promotional period after which e-mail messages that
arrive at that alias are discarded.

If you have only outbound contacts licensed, your required configuration in the
Multimedia Administrator application is complete.

Note: You can configure optional settings for outbound contacts, such as the
Outbound Scheduler. For more information about the optional outbound contact
configurations, see Chapter 6, “Configuring outbound settings and routing.”

If you are licensed for e-mail messages, the Server Configuration window
appears and you can continue configuring your requirements for the E-mail
Manager.

Configuring the e-mail servers


You must configure two e-mail servers:
„ An inbound server (POP3) for e-mail messages received by the contact
center
„ An outbound server (SMTP) for e-mail messages sent by the contact center

Note: During installation, you can configure the server names.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 197


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

You can configure primary and secondary e-mail servers. If your system cannot
log on to a mailbox, the E-mail Manager attempts to connect to the secondary
POP3 host. Likewise, if an SMTP connection attempt fails, the secondary SMTP
host is used. If e-mail is duplicated in both the primary and secondary e-mail
servers, and a failure of the primary server occurs, the e-mail retrieved from the
secondary e-mail server is duplicated in the Multimedia database when the
primary server is restored.

Note: You must ensure that the primary and secondary servers are configured
with identical mailbox names, passwords, and SMTP authentication settings (if
applicable).

You can configure additional e-mail servers. For information about configuring
additional servers, see the Multimedia Administrator online Help.

200 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server

Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound polls specific recipient mailboxes on the


e-mail server based on a list of mailboxes defined in the Multimedia
Administrator recipients list. The e-mail retrieved from these mailboxes is
routed based on defined rules. A mailbox can be a physical mail store or an alias.

To create a recipient mailbox


Mailbox names are case-sensitive. You must type the mailbox name exactly as it
appears on your e-mail server.
1 On the New Recipient window, in the Mailbox Name box, type the name of
a mailbox set up the e-mail server.
Note: If the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server is not in the same
domain as the e-mail server, you must also include the domain. Include the

202 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server

Modifying the system default rule


The system default rule is used one of two ways:
1. If the e-mail message has an address that matches a recipient mailbox
configured in the E-mail Manager, it is used as a template for the last rule in
the recipient mailbox. It ensures that an e-mail addressed to the recipient is
assigned to a skillset, if it matches no other regular user-defined rules.
2. If the e-mail message has an address that does not match a recipient
mailbox configured in the E-mail Manager, the system default rule is used
to assign the e-mail to a skillset.

To modify the system default rule, you must select a route point for the default
skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the skillset
used for routing the e-mail.

When you create a recipient mailbox, the system default rule is copied as the last
regular rule into the list of rules for the recipient mailbox. The default rule
ensures that all contacts received by the mailbox are assigned a skillset.

CAUTION

Risk of routing failure


.

The intention of the system default rule is to route all contacts that
do not match any other rules.
If you change the properties of the rule, you affect the behavior of
the system default rule, which affects all recipient mailboxes you
configure in the E-mail Manager.
If an administrator deletes the skillset associated with a default
rule, the default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset, is used as a
substitute.
If an administrator deletes the EM_Default_Skillset, the system
stops processing e-mail messages.

The default settings for the system default rule are:


„ use the e-mail default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset
„ use no auto-response

Installation and Maintenance Guide 203


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

„ assign priority 3 (medium high)

Note: If you did not configure the route points for all of the skillsets, you must
configure the route points for the skillset you assign to the system default rule.
For more information, see “Configuring skillsets” on page 194.

To modify the system default rule


1 From the Skillset list, select a skillset name. You can accept the current
default.To select the route point for the skillset, perform the following steps:
a. Click Properties to open the skillset properties to change the route
point.
Result: The Edit Skillset window appears.

b. In the Route Point list, select a different route point.


c. Under Auto-Signature, type an auto-signature (optional). The auto-
signature is text appended to each e-mail message sent from the
contact center in addition to the agent message. The text in the auto-
signature contains corporate disclaimer information and must be in
fixed-width font. The auto-signature appears in an e-mail message after
any personal signature, which is configured in the Agent Desktop
application.

The system delivery failure rule is used for one of the following purposes:

Installation and Maintenance Guide 205


Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server Standard 1.0

1. If the e-mail message has an address that matches a recipient mailbox


configured in the E-mail Manager, the system delivery failure rule is used
as a template for the first rule applied in all recipient mailboxes. It ensures
that an e-mail message that contains particular phrases, such as
undeliverable, is not routed to agents.
2. If the e-mail message has an address that does not match a recipient
mailbox configured in the E-mail Manager, the system delivery failure rule
deletes the e-mail message if it contains particular phrases, such as
undeliverable.

To modify the system delivery failure rule, you must select a route point for the
default skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the
skillset used for routing the e-mail.

When you create a recipient mailbox, the system delivery failure rule is copied
as the first regular rule into list of rules for the recipient mailbox.

By default, the following keywords are used in the Delivery failure keywords
keyword group:
„ Delivery Failure
„ Undeliverable
„ Returned mail
„ Unknown Recipient
„ Delivery Report

You can add words to the default keyword list, but do so with caution. Words in
different contexts (such as unknown) in the keyword list for the delivery failure
rule can cause valid e-mail to be routed as undeliverable. In this case, use
specific phrases instead of individual words.

Step 39. Configure hotdesking (optional)

You can use hotdesking to configure your contact center so that an agent can sit
at a different desk every day and log on to the Contact Center Agent Desktop.
With hotdesking enabled and properly configured, when agents start the Contact
Center Agent Desktop, they are automatically mapped to the relevant terminal
and addresses without user intervention.

When hotdesking is also configured for a Citrix environment, agents are


challenged with a dialog box asking them to enter a string that identifies their
workstation. The string must be the same as the string that is configured as the
workstation name in the Communication Control Toolkit configuration.

Setting up hotdesking
1 Ensure all workstations are imported into the Communication Control
Toolkit database using the Communication Control Toolkit administration
tool. You completed this step in “Step 31. Import the agent workstations into
CCT” on page 172.
2 Create a terminal group and add all relevant terminals to this terminal
group.
3 Map the new terminal group (or the individual terminals) to the relevant
Contact Center users. For more information, see “Step 33. Map users to
addresses, terminals, and contact center users” on page 179.
4 Map one workstation to each terminal. For more information, see “Step 32.
Map terminals to workstations (optional)” on page 176.
5 Open the ccad.exe.config file. It is located on the drive where you installed
the Contact Center Multimedia software.
6 In the ccad.exe.config file, enable Contact Center Agent Desktop
hotdesking by changing the HotDeskingEnabled value to 1. Use the Edit >
Find menu option in Notepad to locate the HotDeskingEnabled variable.
Result: The file contains the following text:
<!--This switch controls whether Hotdesking is Enabled.
In order to enable hotdesking, change value="0" to
value="1". Default is 0 -->
<add key="HotDeskingEnabled" value="1" />

218 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Installing the Multimedia/Outbound server

7 If your agents are working in a Citrix environment, the Contact Center


Agent Desktop challenge for workstation name must also be enabled in the
ccad.exe.config file. Change the HotDeskingLogin value to 1. Use the Edit
> Find menu option in Notepad to locate the HotDeskingLogin variable.
Result: The file contains the following text:
<!--This switch determines whether the agent is
challenged with a login dialog If 0 then no dialog. The
dialog prompts the user for a string that identifies
their machine and is needed for agents in a Citrix
environment. change value="0" to value="1". Default is
0 -->
<add key="HotDeskingLogin" value="1" />
8 Save the ccad.exe.config file.
Result: Changes to the .config file on the Multimedia server are
dynamically downloaded to the client for the next time the agent starts the
Contact Center Agent Desktop.

Applying hotdesking to the Contact Center Agent Desktop


When working in a Citrix environment, if both flags are set to 1, then agents can
enter a string that uniquely identifies their workstation. You must create the
workstation name in the Communication Control Toolkit, and map a terminal to
that workstation. For information about creating and mapping resources, see the
Communication Control Toolkit Installation and Maintenance Guide.

Agents see the workstation logon screen if:


„ HotDeskingEnabled in the ccad.exe.config file is 1
„ HotDeskingLogin in the ccad.exe.config file is 1 (for Citrix workstations)

Installation and Maintenance Guide 219

Step 6. Install the Multimedia/Outbound


Service Updates

Before installing the Service Update (SU) or Service Update Supplement (SUS),
Nortel recommends that you verify the patch level currently installed on the
server by launching the Patch Viewer utility. On the server, click Start > All
Programs > Nortel Contact Center > Multimedia Server > CCMM Patch Viewer.
You cannot install a patch that is older than an update that is already installed.
Also, you cannot install a Service Update Supplement unless the applicable
Service Update is installed.

After you download and apply the latest Service Update, check to see if there are
any updates posted in the installation addenda on the following web sites:
„ www.nortel.com (for end customers)
„ www.nortel.com/pic (for distributors)

Follow the procedure in the Service Update Readme for information about
installing the latest Service Updates and Service Update Supplements for the
Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound software.

Note: If a large number of contacts are queued and Contact Center Manager
Server is restarted, Contact Center Manager server queues 5000 contacts per
hour. A period of time can elapse before your contacts are displayed in Real-
Time displays or assigned to agents.

Step 7. Provide local users with Log on as a


Service right

You must configure two user types to access Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound software. These user types are:
„ CCMMOPSUSR —The E-mail Manager service runs under the
CCMMOPSUSR account instead of the local system account so that this
service has permissions to stream attachment files to the inbound folder and
attach files to outgoing e-mail from the outbound folder. These permissions
must be attached to the folders. You must also set the password of the
CCMMOPSUSR so that the password never expires.
„ IUSR_<Servername>—The IUSR account is an IIS account used for all
communication between the Multimedia server and the Agent Desktop over
HTTPS (except for Communication Control Toolkit events over a
configurable port). Agents read and attach files through HTTP rather than
an open share, therefore, the attachment directories are defined as web
folders in IIS.

Note: You must configure CCMMOPSUSR only if you are licensed for e-mail
in your contact center.

This procedure is optional. If you do not have a license for the E-mail Manager,
proceed directly to “Step 10. Verify the Multimedia database installation” on
page 284.

Access on a shared folder is determined through two sets of permission entries:


the permissions set on the share (called share permissions) and the permissions
set on the folder (called NTFS file and folder permissions).

You must provide access to a shared location for inbound and outbound e-mail
attachments. These shared locations must be shared for the user types you
configured in “Step 7. Provide local users with Log on as a Service right” on
page 264.

The Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound Campaign Management Tool
are client applications installed on the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound
server.

From a client, an agent types a URL into a web browser and pulls the Contact
Center Agent Desktop application from the Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound server to their desktop. The agent uses the Contact Center Agent
Desktop to handle the following types of contacts: inbound voice, outbound
voice, e-mail, and web communications.

From a client, supervisors or administrators can open the Outbound Campaign


Management Tool from the Contact Center Manager Administrator to create
outbound campaigns and load them to the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound
server for execution.

290 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

Step 13. Install .NET Framework on clients

The .NET Framework version 1.1 and .NET service pack 1 must be installed on
the clients before you can run an application such as the Contact Center Agent
Desktop application or the Outbound Campaign Management Tool.

Note: You cannot install two different language versions of the .NET
Framework on the same client. If you want to view .NET Framework
applications in a different language, you must download the appropriate
language version of the .NET Framework language pack.

Prerequisites for installing the .NET Framework


Each client must meet the following requirements before you install the .NET
Framework version 1.1 software, and .NET service pack 1:
„ Windows 2000 (service pack 4) or Windows XP (service pack 2)
„ Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or later

Checking for the .NET Framework on a client


If your clients are running the latest version of Windows XP or Windows 2000,
check to see if the correct version of the .NET Framework version is already
installed.
1 On the clients, click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2 Double-click Add or Remove Programs.

292 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

Step 14. Configure access to client


applications

The Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound Campaign Management Tool
applications are based on Microsoft .NET technology. The .NET deployment
model is based on clients pulling the latest version of an application from a Web
server. This .NET deployment provides the benefit of deploying a thick client
using thin-client technology and the ability to automatically update the
applications based on updates and patches on the server.

Accessing the Web server introduces the potential for a client to download
malicious code. The following information provides the procedures to set the
security and to deploy the Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound
Campaign Management Tool with minimal risk.

The Nortel Multimedia security policy file, CCMM_Security_Policy.msi


(Microsoft Installer), contains a policy level for the client to download and run
assemblies with a particular strong name. A strong name consists of the
assembly identity (name, version number, private key) and a public key. The
Outbound Campaign Management Tool and the Contact Center Agent Desktop
assemblies are digitally signed with a strong name based on the private key.
After it is installed, the CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file instructs the clients to
trust the assemblies with the strong name assigned to the Outbound Campaign
Management Tool and the Contact Center Agent Desktop. You can install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file while you are logged on to the server as the
local administrator.

Installing the CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file


You must install the current Nortel CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file that is
included in the latest Service Update. For more information about the latest
Service Update, visit www.nortel.com.

There are three methods to install the security policy:


„ a manual install, recommended for to test the client applications on one or
two clients

Installation and Maintenance Guide 293


Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0 Standard 1.0

„ SMS, recommended by Nortel, to install the msi file on multiple clients


„ Windows group policy to install the .msi file on multiple clients

Note: If a client is outside the Multimedia server domain, then make the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file available to the client from a secure network
drive.

Manual installation
1 Log on to the client as the local administrator.
2 Ensure Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration Tool is not open.
3 Double-click CCMM_Security_Policy.msi to install the file.
Result: The security policy file is applied.

SMS
Because installation procedures through an SMS system can vary from one
company to the next, follow your company guidelines to install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file for the SMS clients on your network. For more
information, see the documentation on the Microsoft web site at
http://www.microsoft.com.

Note: Experienced system administrators can deploy the


CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file.

Group policy
In addition to using an SMS server, a system administrator can install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file on clients within the same domain using a
Windows group policy. For details, see document 324750 on the Microsoft
knowledge base.

Confirming that the security policy is applied


To confirm that the security policy is applied on any client, perform the
following check:
1 On the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel >
Administrative Tools > Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Configuration.
2 Expand Runtime Security Policy > Machine > Code Groups > All_Code.

the Communication Control Toolkit, you must complete the tasks in this
checklist

CS 1000/Meridian 1 for the agent Done

Create a terminal number (TN) entry for each contact center agent ❑
as per instructions in the Contact Center Manager Server
Installation and Maintenance Guide.
Ensure that key 0 has Automatic call distribution call (ACD) ❑
functionality. TNs can be configured with a Contact Center
Manager Server-specific ACD queue or a normal ACD queue used
for both voice and media.

If you are enabling outbound or scheduled callback dialing, ensure ❑


that a personal Dialed Number (DN) key is created on the contact
center agent phoneset.

Enable Associated Set Assignment (AST) for the ACD key and for ❑
one of the other personal DN keys.
Note: AST can only be configured on a maximum of two keys.

Step 16. Create a Windows user for each agent

A Windows user account defines the actions a user can perform. Each user needs
to be created on the domain used by the contact center for agent resources. If all
of the users are configured from your installation of Symposium Web Center
Portal 4.0, you can proceed to “Step 17. Configure the e-mail server” on page
301.

You must be logged on as the domain administrator or a member of the


administrators group to create user accounts.

Configuring the user accounts


1 Log on to the relevant domain controller with administrative privileges.
2 Open Active Directory Users and Computers. Click Start > All Programs >
Administrative Tools > Active Directory Users and Computers.
3 Select the Domain used for Contact Center Agent Resources.
4 On the Action menu, click New > User.
5 Complete the relevant user details such as first name, last name, and user
logon name and then click Next.
6 Enter and confirm the user password, and then click Next.
Note: A Microsoft Exchange e-mail mailbox for users is not required by
Contact Center Multimedia, however, you can create a mailbox for the
agent depending on your user requirements.
7 Review the user details.
8 Click Finish to create the Windows user.

Security
To improve the security of a password, use at least two of these elements:
uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers. The more random the
sequence of characters, the more secure the password.

If you want to set up other password requirements such as minimum length,


expiration time, or uniqueness, open Group Policy and go to Password Policy.

Multimedia. Use the documentation supplied with your e-mail server software to
configure the mailboxes to be used for receiving contacts.

If you are using the same e-mail server and the same e-mail mailboxes as you
were using for Symposium Web Center Portal 4.0, no further configuration is
required on the e-mail server.

Step 32. Configure the sample multimedia


scripts

Scripts for Contact Center Multimedia correctly route multimedia contacts.


Sample scripts are provided in the scripting application. Nortel recommends that
you integrate these sample scripts with your existing Contact Center Manager
Server scripts so that multimedia contacts are routed correctly; however, you
may need to customize the sample scripts.

For more information about Multimedia scripts, see the Contact Center
Scripting Guide.

The sample scripts demonstrate the following functionality:


„ queuing a contact to a multimedia skillset using the contact
intrinsics %SKILLSET%SKILLSET and %PRIORITY%PRIORITY
„ queuing a contact to a multimedia agent using the contact
intrinsics %AGENT%AGENT and %PRIORITY%PRIORITY
„ handling scheduled contacts that have a callback date and timeset using the
contact intrinsics %DATE%DATE, %TIME%TIME and NEXTYEAR
„ queuing contacts that were pulled by an agent using the Agent Desktop
using the contact intrinsic QUEUETYPE

The following sample scripts are included:


„ c_Master_Handles_Multimedia—This script passes execution for
multimedia contacts to the relevant primary script for the contact's type.
Any necessary voice handling sections need to be added in the master
script.
„ EM_Email_Primary—This primary script is executed for e-mail contacts.
The script passes execution to the c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler script. E-
mail contacts are pegged against this application in both historical reports
and real-time displays.
„ OB_Outbound_Primary—This primary script is executed for outbound
contacts. The script passes execution to the c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler
script. Outbound contacts are pegged against this application in both
historical reports and real-time displays.

350 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

„ WC_Web_Primary—This primary script is executed for web


communications contacts. The script passes execution to the
c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler script. Web communications contacts are
pegged against this application in both historical reports and real-time
displays.
„ c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler—This script checks if the current date
and time is greater than the callback date and time of the contact. If so, the
script immediately passes execution to the c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact
script; otherwise, the script stays in a loop until the callback date and time
arrives and passes execution to the c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact script.
„ c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact—This script checks if the contact is
queued directly to an agent. If so, the script attempts to queue the contact to
the agent. If the preferred agent is not logged in, the script queues the
multimedia contact to its assigned skillset.

Importing sample scripts


When you install Contact Center Manager Administration, the system
automatically installs the sample scripts in the following folder on the Contact
Center Manager Administration server:

C:\Program Files\Nortel Networks\WClient\Server\SampleScripts where C: is


the drive on which you installed Contact Center Manager Administration.

You can use the sample Multimedia scripts in Contact Center Manager by
importing them into either an existing script or a new script in the Scripting
component. The Import command adds the text of the imported sample script at
the end of any text in the current script.

You can import a sample script into Contact Center Manager Administration in
two ways:
„ To import a sample script into an existing script, in the Script Manager,
double-click the script into which you want to import the sample script. The
script opens in the Script Editor.
„ To import a sample script into a new, blank script, right-click on the Script
Manager folder and select New from the resulting menu. The Script Editor
opens with a blank starting page.

Step 41. Map users to addresses, terminals,


and contact center users

Before you map a configured user to another Communication Control Toolkit


resource, you must first make sure that the other resource exists and that it is
configured correctly.

Note: You are not required to map terminals to agents if the agents handle only
e-mail contacts.

Map Contact Center users to Windows users, so that the Windows users have
access to the contact center software functionality. For example, when Contact
Center Agent Desktop is deployed, mapping a Contact Center user to a Windows
user identifies the Agent ID assigned to the user in Contact Center Manager
Administration.

Map Windows users to terminals or addresses to assign a communication point


to the Contact Center user, or agent, to handle contacts. For example, when CCT
identifies an incoming call is destined for a specific user, because the terminals
and addresses are mapped to the Windows user, CCT rings the correct terminal/
extension where the Windows user is working

Step 42. Understand the new contact types

You can use the Multimedia Administrator to configure the contact types in the
Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound component of Contact Center, including
outbound, and e-mail.

The Operations and Administration Maintenance (OAM) service retrieves


information about skillsets, route points, and agents from the Contact Center
Manager server, and provides the data to the Multimedia Administrator to
configure Multimedia properties for skillset and agents.

You can use the Contact Center Manager Administrator to create skillsets and
route points. For more information about creating skillsets and route points, see
the Contact Center Manager Administrator Guide.

Configuring the outbound contacts


Only one step is required to configure outbound contacts: configure the route
points for all outbound skillsets. See “Step 43. Log on to the Multimedia
Administrator” on page 407 to begin configuring the Outbound contact
properties.

Configuring the E-Mail Manager


Use the E-Mail Manager to communicate with customers over the internet.
Agents and customers communicate using e-mail messages. The E-mail
Manager provides the following functionality:
„ the ability of the contact center to receive e-mail requests from multiple
mailboxes and multiple servers for presentation to agents as multimedia
contacts
„ intelligent routing of e-mail to deliver each e-mail message to the agent
who has the subject knowledge to respond, send an auto-response, or close
the contact
„ an Agent Desktop interface for agents to respond efficiently to customers
without need for a desktop e-mail client

404 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

„ easy referencing of the thread of conversation between the customer and the
agent
„ the ability to select a contact type based on the e-mail message and
attachments received, such as text messages (SMS), voice mail, or fax
messages
„ the ability to handle contacts using one method when the contact center is
open and another method when the contact center is closed

Several steps are required to configure the E-mail Manager. To begin


configuring the E-Mail Manager, see “Step 43. Log on to the Multimedia
Administrator” on page 407.

Some definitions to know


The following is a list of definitions that you need to understand before
configuring the contact types in Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound.
„ A skillset is a label applied to a set of skills, capabilities, or knowledge that
an agent requires to respond to a given request. The skillsets are retrieved
from the Contact Center Manager database. You must select a route point
for a skillset used to route outbound contacts.
„ A route point is a location on the open queue that queues incoming calls to
and runs through a script on the Contact Center Manager Server.
„ An auto-response is an e-mail message sent to a customer with no agent
interaction. An auto-response can be an intelligent response, such as a sales
promotion flyer, or an acknowledgement, such as “We received your e-mail
and will respond to you within three days.”
„ A recipient mailbox is a container on the e-mail server that hold e-mail
messages. Standard mailboxes are monitored by the Contact Center E-mail
Manager, which routes the e-mail to an agent or group of agents (skillset)
based on an analytical search of the sender address, the recipient address,
the subject and body of an e-mail for predetermined keywords, or a
combination of these. The e-mail server must be compliant with Post Office
Protocol 3 (POP3) and Standard Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
„ An e-mail alias is not a real e-mail account; an alias is an address that
forwards all e-mail messages it receives to another e-mail account. For
example, the mailbox general@magscripts.com can have the aliases
carz@magsubscriptions.com and planez@magsubscriptions.com. E-mail

Installation and Maintenance Guide 405


Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0 Standard 1.0

addressed to either of these aliases are forwarded to the


general@magscripts.com mailbox. To route e-mail differently depending
on the alias to which they are addressed, create a recipient mailbox as an
alias in Multimedia Administrator and then create routing rules based on
the alias.
Aliases can be useful to filter e-mail messages. For example, you can define
an alias for a short promotional period after which e-mail messages that
arrive at that alias are discarded.

If you have only Outbound contacts licensed, your required configuration in the
Multimedia Administrator application is complete.

Note: You can configure other settings, such as the Outbound Scheduler. For
more information about the Outbound Scheduler, see the Multimedia
Administrator online Help.

If you are licensed for e-mail messages, the Server Configuration window
appears and you can continue configuring your requirements for the E-mail
Manager.

Configuring the e-mail servers


Two e-mail servers must be configured:
„ An inbound server (POP3) for e-mail messages received by the contact
center
„ An outbound server (SMTP) for e-mail messages sent by the contact center

Note: During installation, you can configure the server names.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 413


Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0 Standard 1.0

You can configure primary and secondary e-mail servers. If your system cannot
log on to a mailbox, the E-mail Manager attempts to connect to the secondary
POP3 host. Likewise, if an SMTP connection attempt fails, the secondary SMTP
host is used. If e-mail is duplicated in both the primary and secondary e-mail
servers, and a failure of the primary server occurs, the e-mail retrieved from the
secondary e-mail server is duplicated in the Multimedia database when the
primary server is restored.

Note: You must ensure that the primary and secondary servers are configured
with identical mailbox names, passwords, and SMTP authentication settings (if
applicable).

You can configure additional e-mail servers. For information about configuring
additional servers, see the Multimedia Administrator online Help.

416 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound polls specific recipient mailboxes on the


e-mail server based on a list of mailboxes defined in the Multimedia
Administrator recipients list. The e-mail retrieved from these mailboxes is
routed based on defined rules. A mailbox can be a physical mail store or an alias.

To create a recipient mailbox


Mailbox names are case-sensitive. You must type the mailbox name exactly as it
appears on your e-mail server.
1 On the New Recipient window, in the Mailbox Name box, type the name of
a mailbox set up the e-mail server.
Note: If the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server is not in the same
domain as the e-mail server, you must also include the domain. Include the
domain in the format domain\user (Windows 2000) or user@domain (post-
Windows 2000) in the Mailbox Name box.
Example: To enter the e-mail address sales@nortel.com, in the Mailbox
Name box, type sales, and in the E-mail Domain box, type nortel.com.
Example: To enter the e-mail address sales@europe.nortel.com, in the
Mailbox Name box, type europe\sales or sales@europe, and in the E-mail
Domain box, type nortel.com.

Modifying the system default rule


The system default rule is used one of two ways:
1. If the e-mail message has an address that matches a recipient mailbox
configured in the E-mail Manager, it is used as a template for the last rule in
the recipient mailbox. It ensures that an e-mail addressed to the recipient is
assigned to a skillset, if it matches no other regular user-defined rules.
2. If the e-mail message has an address that does not match a recipient
mailbox configured in the E-mail Manager, the system default rule is used
to assign the e-mail to a skillset.

To modify the system default rule, you must select a route point for the default
skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the skillset
used for routing the e-mail.

When you create a recipient mailbox, the system default rule is copied as the last
regular rule into the list of rules for the recipient mailbox. The Default rule
ensures that all contacts received by the mailbox are assigned a skillset.

CAUTION

Risk of routing failure


.

The intention of the system default rule is to route all contacts that
do not match any other rules.
If you change the properties of the rule, you affect the behavior of
the system default rule, which affects all recipient mailboxes you
configure in the E-mail Manager.
If an administrator deletes the skillset associated with a default
rule, the default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset, is used as a
substitute.
If an administrator deletes the EM_Default_Skillset, the system
stops processing e-mail messages.

The default settings for the system default rule are:


„ use the e-mail default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset
„ use no auto-response

Installation and Maintenance Guide 419


Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0 Standard 1.0

„ assign priority 3 (medium high)

Note: If you did not configure the route points for all of the skillsets, you must
configure the route points for the skillset you assign to the system default rule.
For more information, see “Configuring skillsets” on page 410.

To modify the system default rule


1 From the Skillset list, select a skillset name. You can accept the current
default.To select the route point for the skillset, perform the following steps:
a. Click Properties to open the skillset properties to change the route
point.
Result: The Edit Skillset window appears.

b. In the Route Point list, select a different route point.


c. Under Auto-Signature, type an auto-signature (optional). The auto-
signature is text appended to each e-mail message sent from the
contact center in addition to the agent message. The text in the auto-
signature contains corporate disclaimer information and must be in
fixed-width font. The auto-signature appears in an e-mail message after
any personal signature, which is configured in the Agent Desktop
application.

Modifying the system delivery failure rule


The system delivery failure rule is used for one of two purposes:

Installation and Maintenance Guide 421


Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0 Standard 1.0

1. If the e-mail message has an address that matches a recipient mailbox


configured in the E-mail Manager, the system delivery failure rule is used
as a template for the first rule applied in all recipient mailboxes. It ensures
that an e-mail message that contains particular phrases, such as
undeliverable, are not routed to agents.
2. If the e-mail message has an address that does not match a recipient
mailbox configured in the E-mail Manager, the system delivery failure rule
deletes the e-mail message if it contains particular phrases, such as
undeliverable.

To modify the system delivery failure rule, you must select a route point for the
default skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the
skillset used for routing the e-mail.

When you create a recipient mailbox, the system delivery failure rule is copied
as the first regular rule into list of rules for the recipient mailbox.

By default, the following keywords are used in the Delivery failure keywords
keyword group:
„ Delivery Failure
„ Undeliverable
„ Returned mail
„ Unknown Recipient
„ Delivery Report

You can add words to the default keyword list, but do so with caution. Words in
different contexts (such as unknown) in the keyword list for the delivery failure
rule can cause valid e-mail to be routed as undeliverable. In this case, use
specific phrases instead of individual words.

422 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

When you create a mailbox, it is automatically assigned a delivery failure rule,


which is copied from the system delivery failure rule.

CAUTION

The intention of the delivery failure rule is to route undeliverable


contacts.
If you change the properties of the rule, you affect the behavior of
the system delivery failure rule, which affects all recipient
mailboxes you configure in the E-mail Manager.
If the skillset associated with a system delivery failure rule is
deleted, the default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset is used as a
substitute.
If the EM_Default_Skillset is deleted, the system stops processing
e-mail messages.

The default settings for the system delivery failure rule are:
„ use the e-mail default skillset, EM_Default _Skillset
„ use keyword group delivery failure keywords
„ assign priority 6 (lowest)

Note: If you did not configure the route points for all of the skillsets, you must
configure the route point for the skillset for the system delivery failure rule. See
“Configuring skillsets” on page 410.

Note: You cannot use an auto-response for a delivery failure rule.

Step 48. Configure hotdesking (optional)

You can use hotdesking to configure your contact center so that an agent can sit
at a different desk every day and log on to the Contact Center Agent Desktop.
With hotdesking enabled and properly configured, when agents start the Contact
Center Agent Desktop, they are automatically mapped to the relevant terminal
and addresses without user intervention.

When hotdesking is also configured for a Citrix environment, agents are


challenged with a dialog box asking them to enter a string that identifies their
workstation. The string must be the same as the string that is configured as the
workstation name in the Communication Control Toolkit configuration.

Setting up hotdesking
1 Ensure all workstations are imported into the Communication Control
Toolkit database using the Communication Control Toolkit administration
tool. You completed this step in “Step 39. Import the agent workstations into
CCT” on page 388.
2 Create a terminal group and add all relevant terminals to this terminal
group.
3 Map the new terminal group (or the individual terminals) to the relevant
Contact Center users. For more information, see “Step 41. Map users to
addresses, terminals, and contact center users” on page 395.
4 Map one workstation to each terminal. For more information, see “Step 40.
Map terminals to workstations (optional)” on page 392.
5 Open the ccad.exe.config file. It is located on the drive where you installed
the Contact Center Multimedia software.
6 In the ccad.exe.config file, enable Contact Center Agent Desktop
hotdesking by changing the HotDeskingEnabled value to 1. Use the Edit >
Find menu option in Notepad to locate the HotDeskingEnabled variable.
Result: The file contains the following text:
<!--This switch controls whether Hotdesking is Enabled.
In order to enable hotdesking, change value="0" to
value="1". Default is 0 -->
<add key="HotDeskingEnabled" value="1" />

May 2006 Upgrading from SWCP Release 4.0

7 If your agents are working in a Citrix environment, the Contact Center


Agent Desktop challenge for workstation name must also be enabled in the
ccad.exe.config file. Change the HotDeskingLogin value to 1. Use the Edit
> Find menu option in Notepad to locate the HotDeskingLogin variable.
Result: The file contains the following text:
<!--This switch determines whether the agent is
challenged with a login dialog If 0 then no dialog. The
dialog prompts the user for a string that identifies
their machine and is needed for agents in a Citrix
environment. change value="0" to value="1". Default is
0 -->
<add key="HotDeskingLogin" value="1" />
8 Save the ccad.exe.config file.
Result: Changes to the .config file on the Multimedia server are
dynamically downloaded to the client for the next time the agent starts the
Contact Center Agent Desktop.

Applying hotdesking to the Contact Center Agent Desktop


When working in a Citrix environment, if both flags are set to 1, then agents can
enter a string that uniquely identifies their workstation. You must create the
workstation name in the Communication Control Toolkit, and map a terminal to
that workstation. For information about creating and mapping resources, see the
Communication Control Toolkit Installation and Maintenance Guide.

Agents see the workstation logon screen if:


„ HotDeskingEnabled in the ccad.exe.config file is 1
„ HotDeskingLogin in the ccad.exe.config file is 1 (for Citrix workstations)

Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

Step 7. Provide local users with Log on as a


Service right

You must configure two user types to access Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound software. These user types are:
„ CCMMOPSUSR —The E-mail Manager service runs under the
CCMMOPSUSR account instead of the local system account so that this
service has permissions to stream attachment files to the inbound folder and
attach files to outgoing e-mail from the outbound folder. These permissions
must be attached to the folders. You must also set the password of the
CCMMOPSUSR so that the password never expires.
„ IUSR_<Servername>—The IUSR account is an IIS account used for all
communication between the Multimedia server and the Agent Desktop over
HTTPS (except for Communication Control Toolkit events over a
configurable port). Agents read and attach files through HTTP rather than
an open share, therefore, the attachment directories are defined as web
folders in IIS.

Note: You must configure CCMMOPSUSR only if you are licensed for e-mail
in your contact center.

Adding the users


1 On the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > Administrative Tools >
Local Security Policy to open the Local Security Settings window.
Result: The Local Security Settings window appears.

Step 8. Configure the shared inbound and


outbound attachment folders

This procedure is optional. If you do not have a license for the E-mail Manager,
proceed directly to “Step 10. Verify the Multimedia database installation” on
page 500.

Access on a shared folder is determined through two sets of permission entries:


the permissions set on the share (called share permissions) and the permissions
set on the folder (called NTFS file and folder permissions).

You must provide access to a shared location for inbound and outbound e-mail
attachments. These shared locations must be shared for the user types you
configured in “Step 7. Provide local users with Log on as a Service right” on
page 480.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 485


Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

Step 15. Configure access to client


applications

The Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound Campaign Management Tool
applications are based on Microsoft .NET technology. The .NET deployment
model is based on clients pulling the latest version of an application from a Web
server. This .NET deployment provides the benefit of deploying a thick client
using thin-client technology and the ability to automatically update the
applications based on updates and patches on the server.

Accessing the Web server introduces the potential for a client to download
malicious code. The following information provides the procedures to set the
security and to deploy the Contact Center Agent Desktop and Outbound
Campaign Management Tool with minimal risk.

The Nortel Multimedia security policy file, CCMM_Security_Policy.msi


(Microsoft Installer), contains a policy level for the client to download and run
assemblies with a particular strong name. A strong name consists of the
assembly identity (name, version number, private key) and a public key. The
Outbound Campaign Management Tool and the Contact Center Agent Desktop
assemblies are digitally signed with a strong name based on the private key.
After it is installed, the CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file instructs the clients to
trust the assemblies with the strong name assigned to the Outbound Campaign
Management Tool and the Contact Center Agent Desktop. You can install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file while you are logged on to the server as the
local administrator.

Installing the CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file


You must install the current Nortel CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file that is
included in the latest Service Update. For more information about the latest
Service Update, visit www.nortel.com.

There are three methods to install the security policy:


„ a manual installation, recommended to test the client applications on one or
two clients

Installation and Maintenance Guide 515


Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

„ SMS, recommended by Nortel, to install the msi file on multiple clients


„ Windows group policy to install the .msi file on multiple clients

Note: If a client is outside the Multimedia server domain, then make the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file available to the client from a secure network
drive.

Manual installation
1 Log on to the client as the local administrator.
2 Ensure Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration Tool is not open.
3 Double-click CCMM_Security_Policy.msi to install the file.
Result: The security policy file is applied.

SMS
Because installation procedures through an SMS system can vary from one
company to the next, follow your company guidelines to install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file for the SMS clients on your network. For more
information, see the documentation on the Microsoft web site at
http://www.microsoft.com.

Note: An experienced system administrator can deploy the


CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file.

Group policy
In addition to using an SMS server, a system administrator can install the
CCMM_Security_Policy.msi file on clients within the same domain using a
Windows group policy. For details, see document 324750 on the Microsoft
knowledge base.

Confirming that the security policy is applied


To confirm that the security policy is applied on any client, perform the
following check:
1 On the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel >
Administrative Tools > Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Configuration.
2 Expand Runtime Security Policy > Machine > Code Groups > All_Code.

Step 26. Configure the sample multimedia


scripts

Note: You configured the sample multimedia scripts in your contact center
during the configuration of your old Contact Center Multimedia server. If you
are not changing the scripts in your contact center, then proceed to “Step 27.
Add the Multimedia Server to CCMA for reporting” on page 549.

Scripts for Contact Center Multimedia are used to correctly route multimedia
contacts. Sample scripts are provided in the scripting application. It is
recommended that you initially integrate these sample scripts with your existing
Contact Center Manager Server scripts. Once complete, multimedia contacts are
routed correctly; however, the sample scripts may need to be customized to
better suit the individual needs of Contact Center Multimedia.

For more information about Multimedia scripts, see Contact Center Scripting
Guide.

The sample scripts demonstrate the following functionality:


„ queuing a contact to a multimedia skillset using the contact
intrinsics %SKILLSET%SKILLSET and %PRIORITY%PRIORITY
„ queuing a contact to a multimedia agent using the contact
intrinsics %AGENT%AGENT and %PRIORITY%PRIORITY
„ handling scheduled contacts that have a callback date and timeset using the
contact intrinsics %DATE%DATE, %TIME%TIME and NEXTYEAR
„ queuing contacts that were pulled by an agent using the Agent Desktop
using the contact intrinsic QUEUETYPE

The following sample scripts are included:


„ c_Master_Handles_Multimedia—This script passes execution for
multimedia contacts to the relevant primary script for the contact's type.
Any necessary voice handling sections need to be added in the master
script.
„ EM_Email_Primary—This primary script is executed for e-mail contacts.
The script passes execution to the c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler script.

546 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server

E-mail contacts are pegged against this application in both historical reports
and real-time displays.
„ OB_Outbound_Primary—This primary script is executed for outbound
contacts. The script passes execution to the c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler
script. Outbound contacts are pegged against this application in both
historical reports and real-time displays.
„ WC_Web_Primary—This primary script is executed for web
communications contacts. The script passes execution to the
c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler script. Web communications contacts are
pegged against this application in both historical reports and real-time
displays.
„ c_Scheduled_Contact_Handler—This script checks if the current date
and time is greater than the callback date and time of the contact. If so, the
script immediately passes execution to the c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact
script; otherwise, the script stays in a loop until the callback date and time
arrives and passes execution to the c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact script.
„ c_Queue_Multimedia_Contact—This script checks if the contact is
queued directly to an agent. If so, the script attempts to queue the contact to
the agent. If the preferred agent is not logged in, the script queues the
multimedia contact to its assigned skillset.

Importing sample scripts


When you install Contact Center Manager Administration, the system
automatically installs the sample scripts on Contact Center Manager
Administration in
C:\Program Files\Nortel Networks\WClient\Server\SampleScripts where C: is
the drive on which you installed Contact Center Manager Administration.

You can use the sample Multimedia scripts in Contact Center Manager by
importing them into either an existing script or a new script in the Scripting
component. The Import command adds the text of the imported sample script at
the end of any text in the current script.

You can import a sample script into Contact Center Manager Administration in

Step 35. Map users to addresses, terminals,


and contact center users

Before you map a configured user to another Communication Control Toolkit


resource, you must first make sure that the other resource exists and that it is
configured correctly.

Note: You are not required to map terminals to agents if the agents handle only
e-mail contacts.

Map Contact Center users to Windows users, so that the Windows users have
access to the contact center software functionality. For example, when Contact
Center Agent Desktop is deployed, mapping a Contact Center user to a Windows
user identifies the Agent ID assigned to the user in Contact Center Manager
Administration.

Map Windows users to terminals or addresses to assign a communication point


to the Contact Center user, or agent, to handle contacts. For example, when CCT
identifies an incoming call is destined for a specific user, because the terminals
and addresses are mapped to the Windows user, CCT rings the correct terminal/
extension where the Windows user is working

Step 36. Understand the contact types

You can use the Multimedia Administrator to configure the contact types in the
Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound component of Contact Center, including
outbound, and e-mail.

The Operations and Administration Maintenance (OAM) service retrieves


information about skillsets, route points, and agents from the Contact Center
Manager server, and provides the data to the Multimedia Administrator to
configure Multimedia properties for skillset and agents.

You can use Contact Center Manager Administration to create skillsets and route
points. For more information about creating skillsets and route points, see the
Contact Center Manager Administrator Guide.

This chapter describes the required steps for the contact type configurations.

Configuring the outbound contacts


Only one step is required to configure outbound contacts: configure the route
points for all outbound skillsets. See “Step 37. Log on to the Multimedia
Administrator” on page 603 to begin configuring the outbound contact
properties.

Configuring the E-Mail Manager


Use the E-Mail Manager to communicate with customers over the internet.
Agents and customers communicate using e-mail messages. The E-mail
Manager provides the following functionality:
„ the ability of the contact center to receive e-mail requests from multiple
mailboxes and multiple servers for presentation to agents as multimedia
contacts
„ intelligent routing of e-mail to deliver each e-mail message to the agent
who has the subject knowledge to respond, send an auto-response, or close
the contact

600 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server

„ an Agent Desktop interface for agents to respond efficiently to customers


without need for a desktop e-mail client
„ easy referencing of the thread of conversation between the customer and the
agent
„ the ability to select a contact type based on the e-mail message and
attachments received, such as text messages (SMS), voice mail, or fax
messages
„ the ability to handle contacts using one method when the contact center is
open and another method when the contact center is closed

Several steps are required to configure the E-mail Manager. To begin


configuring the E-Mail Manager, see “Step 37. Log on to the Multimedia
Administrator” on page 603.

Some definitions to know


The following is a list of definitions that you need to understand before
configuring the contact types in Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound.
„ A skillset is a label applied to a set of skills, capabilities, or knowledge that
an agent requires to respond to a given request. The skillsets are retrieved
from the Contact Center Manager database. You must select a route point
for a skillset used to route outbound contacts.
„ A route point is a location on the open queue that queues incoming calls to
and runs through a script on the Contact Center Manager Server.
„ An auto-response is an e-mail message sent to a customer with no agent
interaction. An auto-response can be an intelligent response, such as a sales
promotion flyer, or an acknowledgement, such as “We received your e-mail
and will respond to you within three days.”
„ A recipient mailbox is a container on the e-mail server that hold e-mail
messages. Standard mailboxes are monitored by the Contact Center E-mail
Manager, which routes the e-mail to an agent or group of agents (skillset)
based on an analytical search of the sender address, the recipient address,
the subject and body of an e-mail for predetermined keywords, or a
combination of these. The e-mail server must be compliant with Post Office
Protocol 3 (POP3) and Standard Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).

Installation and Maintenance Guide 601


Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

„ An e-mail alias is not a real e-mail account; an alias is an address that


forwards all e-mail messages it receives to another e-mail account. For
example, the mailbox general@magscripts.com can have the aliases
carz@magsubscriptions.com and planez@magsubscriptions.com. E-mail
addressed to either of these aliases are forwarded to the
general@magscripts.com mailbox. To route e-mail differently depending
on the alias to which they are addressed, create a recipient mailbox as an
alias in Multimedia Administrator and then create routing rules based on
the alias.
Aliases can be useful to filter e-mail messages. For example, you can define
an alias for a short promotional period after which e-mail messages that
arrive at that alias are discarded.

Manager.

Configuring the e-mail servers


Two e-mail servers must be configured:
„ An inbound server (POP3) for e-mail messages received by the contact
center
„ An outbound server (SMTP) for e-mail messages sent by the contact center

Note: During installation, you can configure the server names.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 609


Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

You can configure primary and secondary e-mail servers. If your system cannot
log on to a mailbox, the E-mail Manager attempts to connect to the secondary
POP3 host. Likewise, if an SMTP connection attempt fails, the secondary SMTP
host is used. If e-mail is duplicated in both the primary and secondary e-mail
servers, and a failure of the primary server occurs, the e-mail retrieved from the
secondary e-mail server is duplicated in the Multimedia database when the
primary server is restored.

Note: You must ensure that the primary and secondary servers are configured
with identical mailbox names, passwords, and SMTP authentication settings (if
applicable).

You can configure additional e-mail servers. For information about configuring
additional servers, see the Multimedia Administrator online Help.

Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound polls specific recipient mailboxes on the


e-mail server based on a list of mailboxes defined in the Multimedia
Administrator recipients list. The e-mail retrieved from these mailboxes is
routed based on defined rules. A mailbox can be a physical mail store or an alias.

To create a recipient mailbox


Mailbox names are case-sensitive. You must type the mailbox name exactly as it
appears on your e-mail server.
1 On the New Recipient window, in the Mailbox Name box, type the name of
a mailbox set up the e-mail server.
Note: If the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server is not in the same
domain as the e-mail server, you must also include the domain. Include the
domain in the format domain\user (Windows 2000) or user@domain (post-
Windows 2000) in the Mailbox Name box.
Example: To enter the e-mail address sales@nortel.com, in the Mailbox
Name box, type sales, and in the E-mail Domain box, type nortel.com.
Example: To enter the e-mail address sales@europe.nortel.com, in the
Mailbox Name box, type europe\sales or sales@europe, and in the E-mail
Domain box, type nortel.com.

Modifying the system default rule


The system default rule is used one of two ways:
1. If the e-mail message has an address that matches a recipient mailbox
configured in the E-mail Manager, it is used as a template for the last rule in
the recipient mailbox. It ensures that an e-mail addressed to the recipient is
assigned to a skillset, if it matches no other regular user-defined rules.
2. If the e-mail message has an address that does not match a recipient
mailbox configured in the E-mail Manager, the system default rule is used
to assign the e-mail to a skillset.

To modify the system default rule, you must select a route point for the default
skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the skillset
used for routing the e-mail.

When you create a recipient mailbox, the system default rule is copied as the last
regular rule into list of rules for the recipient mailbox. The default rule ensures
that all contacts received by the mailbox are assigned a skillset.

CAUTION

Risk of routing failure


.

The intention of the system default rule is to route all contacts that
do not match any other rules.
If you change the properties of the rule, you affect the behavior of
the System default rule, which affects all recipient mailboxes you
configure in the E-mail Manager.
If the skillset associated with a default rule is deleted, the default
skillset, EM_Default_Skillset is used as a substitute.
If the EM_Default_Skillset is deleted, the system stops processing
e-mail messages.

The default settings for the system default rule are:


„ use the e-mail default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset
„ use no auto-response
„ assign priority 3 (medium high)

Installation and Maintenance Guide 615


Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

Note: If you did not configure the route points for all of the skillsets, you must
configure the route points for the skillset you assign to the system default rule.
For more information, see “Configuring skillsets” on page 606.

To modify the system default rule


1 From the Skillset list, select a skillset name. You can accept the current
default.To select the route point for the skillset, perform the following steps:
a. Click Properties to open the skillset properties to change the route
point.
Result: The Edit Skillset window appears.

b. In the Route Point list, select a different route point.


c. Under Auto-Signature, type an auto-signature (optional). The auto-
signature is text appended to each e-mail message sent from the
contact center in addition to the agent message. The text in the auto-
signature contains corporate disclaimer information and must be in
fixed-width font. The auto-signature appears in an e-mail message after
any personal signature, which is configured in the Agent Desktop
application.

The system delivery failure rule is used for one of the following purposes:

Installation and Maintenance Guide 617


Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server Standard 1.0

1. If the e-mail message has an address that matches a recipient mailbox


configured in the E-mail Manager, the system delivery failure rule is used
as a template for the first rule applied in all recipient mailboxes. It ensures
that an e-mail message that contains particular phrases, such as
undeliverable, are not routed to agents.
2. If the e-mail message has an address that does not match a recipient
mailbox configured in the E-mail Manager, the system delivery failure rule
deletes the e-mail message if it contains particular phrases, such as
undeliverable.

To modify the system delivery failure rule, you must select a route point for the
default skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the
skillset used for routing the e-mail.

When you create a recipient mailbox, the system delivery failure rule is copied
as the first regular rule into list of rules for the recipient mailbox.To configure
the system delivery failure rule, you must select a route point for the default
skillset. You can configure the other properties of the rule, including the skillset
to assign e-mail to, and other keywords.

By default, the following keywords are used in the Delivery failure keywords
keyword group:
„ Delivery Failure
„ Undeliverable
„ Returned mail
„ Unknown Recipient
„ Delivery Report

You can add words to the default keyword list, but do so with caution. Words in
different contexts (such as unknown) in the keyword list for the delivery failure
rule, can cause valid e-mail to be routed as undeliverable. In this case, use
specific phrases instead of individual words.

618 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Migrating Contact Center 6.0 to a new server

When you create a mailbox, it is automatically assigned a delivery failure rule,


which is copied from the system delivery failure rule.

The intention of the delivery failure rule is to route undeliverable


contacts.
If you change the properties of the rule, you affect the behavior of
the system delivery failure rule, which affects all recipient
mailboxes you configure in the E-mail Manager.
If the skillset associated with a system delivery failure rule is
deleted, the default skillset, EM_Default_Skillset is used as a
substitute.
If the EM_Default_Skillset is deleted, the system stops processing
e-mail messages.

The default settings for the system delivery failure rule are:
„ use the e-mail default skillset, EM_Default _Skillset
„ use keyword group Delivery Failure keywords
„ assign priority 6 (lowest)

Note: If you did not configure the route points for all of the skillsets, you must
configure the route point for the skillset for the system delivery failure rule. See

Step 41. Configure hotdesking (optional)

You can use hotdesking to configure your contact center so that an agent can sit
at a different desk every day and log on to the Contact Center Agent Desktop.
With hotdesking enabled and properly configured, when agents start the Contact
Center Agent Desktop, they are automatically mapped to the relevant terminal
and addresses without user intervention.

When hotdesking is also configured for a Citrix environment, agents are


challenged with a dialog box asking them to enter a string that identifies their
workstation. The string must be the same as the string that is configured as the
workstation name in the Communication Control Toolkit configuration.

Setting up hotdesking
1 Ensure all workstations are imported into the Communication Control
Toolkit database using the Communication Control Toolkit administration
tool. You completed this step in “Step 33. Import the agent workstations into
CCT” on page 584.
2 Create a terminal group and add all relevant terminals to this terminal
group.
3 Map the new terminal group (or the individual terminals) to the relevant
Contact Center users. For more information, see “Step 35. Map users to
addresses, terminals, and contact center users” on page 591.
4 Map one workstation to each terminal. For more information, see “Step 34.
Map terminals to workstations (optional)” on page 588.
5 Open the ccad.exe.config file. It is located on the drive where you installed
the Contact Center Multimedia software.
6 In the ccad.exe.config file, enable Contact Center Agent Desktop
hotdesking by changing the HotDeskingEnabled value to 1. Use the Edit >
Find menu option in Notepad to locate the HotDeskingEnabled variable.
Result: The file contains the following text:
<!--This switch controls whether Hotdesking is Enabled.
In order to enable hotdesking, change value="0" to
value="1". Default is 0 -->
<add key="HotDeskingEnabled" value="1" />

> Find menu option in Notepad to locate the HotDeskingLogin variable.
Result: The file contains the following text:
<!--This switch determines whether the agent is
challenged with a login dialog If 0 then no dialog. The
dialog prompts the user for a string that identifies
their machine and is needed for agents in a Citrix
environment. change value="0" to value="1". Default is
0 -->
<add key="HotDeskingLogin" value="1" />
8 Save the ccad.exe.config file.
Result: Changes to the .config file on the Multimedia server are
dynamically downloaded to the client for the next time the agent starts the
Contact Center Agent Desktop.

Applying hotdesking to the Contact Center Agent Desktop

Installation and Maintenance Guide 641


Installing the Redundancy server Standard 1.0

Overview

The Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server has a warm standby server, or


Redundancy server, that is used for shadowing the Caché database and providing
a quick recovery if the primary server fails. If the Redundancy server feature is
licensed in your contact center, you can use this chapter to perform the steps
required to install the Redundancy server. All Multimedia services are disabled
on the Redundancy server.

If there is a Multimedia server failure, you must:


„ manually switch the Redundancy server to act as the primary server
„ start the services

When the Multimedia server failure is corrected, you can:


„ return the Primary server to the primary mode
„ shut down the services on the Redundancy server
„ start the services on the Primary server
„ restore the database

The steps for switching the Redundancy and Primary server operations is
described in this chapter.

The Multimedia database for the redundancy server must be installed on the
same drive letter as on the Primary server. The Redundancy server receives
Multimedia database updates asynchronously so it does not affect the
performance on the Primary server.

Note: The Redundancy server checks the Primary server every 10 seconds for
any changes to the data. Changes are updated on the Redundancy server. If the
Primary server is busy, a delay in the data transfer occurs between the Primary
server and the Redundancy server. The delay depends on the primary server.

Note: For clarification, the server where the Primary server software is installed
is referred throughout this chapter as the Primary server. The server where the
Redundancy software is installed is referred to as Redundancy server. Primary
mode refers to the server that is running as the Primary server in the contact
center.

Step 11. Provide local users with the Log on


as a Service right

You must configure two user types to access Contact Center Multimedia
software. These user types are:
„ CCMMOPSUSR —The E-mail Manager service runs under the
CCMMOPSUSR account instead of the local system account so that this
service has permissions to stream attachment files to the inbound folder and
attach files to outgoing e-mail from the outbound folder. These permissions
must be attached to the folders. You must also set the password of the
CCMMOPSUSR so that the password never expires.
„ IUSR_<Servername>—The IUSR account is an IIS account used for all
communication between the Multimedia server and the Agent Desktop over
HTTPS (except for Communication Control Toolkit events over a
configurable port). Agents read and attach files through HTTP rather than
an open share, therefore, the attachment directories are defined as web
folders in IIS.

Note: You must configure CCMMOPSUSR only if you are licensed for e-mail
in your contact center.

To provide local users with Log on as a service right


1 On the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > Administrative Tools >
Local Security Policy.
Result: The Local Security Settings window appears.
2 Under Security Settings, double-click Local Policies in the left pane.

Step 13. Create shared inbound and outbound


attachment folders

This procedure is optional. If you do not have a license for the E-mail Manager,
proceed directly to “Switch the Redundancy server to Primary mode” on page
723.

Access on a shared folder is determined through two sets of permission entries:


the permissions set on the share (called share permissions) and the permissions
set on the folder (called NTFS file and folder permissions).

You must provide access to a shared location for inbound and outbound e-mail
attachments. These shared locations must be shared for the user types you
configured in “Switch the Redundancy server to Primary mode” on page 723.

Use the procedures in this section to configure the shared folders with the
required access permissions.

ATTENTION Nortel recommends that you use the default attachment


locations defined in this section. If required, you can choose a
different location for the inbound and outbound shared e-mail
folders. If you choose a different location, you must ensure
that you:
„ Create the inbound e-mail attachment folder with the path
MailAttachments/Inbound.
„ Create the outbound folder with the path MailAttachments/
Outbound.
„ Share the inbound and outbound folders with the users
CCMMOPSUSR and IUSR_<Servername>.
„ Set the NTFS access permissions for CCMMOPSUSR and
IUSR_<Servername>.
„ Configure the correct folders in the e-mail attachment
locations in the Multimedia Administrator application.

Configuring rules

Rules determine how a multimedia contact is to be routed based on information


about the e-mail message (inputs) and configurations in your contact center
(outputs).

A basic rule considers the recipient address of the contact and can assign a
skillset. You can further enhance the routing by searching for specific keywords
in the body of an e-mail, or looking at who sent the message (sender address).
You can also enhance the routing by selecting additional output details for your
contact center, such as auto-responses. You can configure a maximum of 1000
rules.

Configuring additional rules is optional.

Example 1:
A magazine advertises an investment strategy. Customers can learn more about
the investment by sending an e-mail with “Good Investing” in the subject line to
a specific address. A rule can be created to search incoming e-mail messages for
“Good Investing.” If the e-mail subject line contains “Good Investing,” then a
brochure is sent to the customer. No interaction from an agent is required.

Example 2:
An e-mail arrives at the contact center from the most important client of the
contact center. A rule can be created to route this client’s contacts to a skillset
assigned to a highly specialized agent.

764 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Configuring e-mail settings and routing

Understanding rule components

Rule inputs
Multimedia rules are based on the recipient address or the To address when the
e-mail arrives in the contact center. Rules apply to a recipient mailbox.

You can also add keywords and sender addresses to the input to further refine the
rule.
„ Keyword groups—A collection of related words for which the system
searches within the subject or the body of an e-mail.
„ Sender address groups—The originating address of the e-mail, or From
address, when the e-mail arrives in the contact center.

Rule outputs
Each rule must have one output that is assigned to a skillset. You can also
configure a contact type or a priority for the contact that matches the rule. You
can optionally close the contact, or add an auto-response or out of office
message, to the rule.

Placing the rules in a sequence


The first rule applied to each recipient mailbox is a copy of the system delivery
failure rule. The last rule applied to each recipient mailbox is a copy of the
default rule. The other rules, created by the administrator, can be in any order
between the delivery failure and default rules.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 765


Configuring e-mail settings and routing Standard 1.0

For rules that you create, the rule with the most specific constraints appears
second, after the delivery failure rule, and the rule with the least specific
constraints appears immediately before the default rule, which is last.

You can configure the sequence of the rules by selecting a rule in the list and
using the up or down arrow to move the rule.

You can also enable and disable each rule by selecting a rule in the list and using
the check mark or cross to enable or disable the rule.

Note: The default delivery failure rule and the default rule are always enabled
and you can not disable them.

Determining the status of a rule


Each rule is in one of the following states:

Enabled—The rule is executed if the contact matches the requirements of the


rule. It is black on the table.

Disabled—The rule is not executed, even if the contact matches the


requirements of the rule, because the rule is disabled. It is gray on the table.

Reset—The rule is executed if the contact matches the requirements of the rule;
however, the rule was reset, because the skillset used in the rule was deleted in
Contact Center Manager Administration. The default skillset,
EM_Default_Skillset, is assigned to the rule, and unexpected routing can occur.
The rule is red in the list of rules to warn the administrator of a change in the rule
definition. The rule returns to black when you change or open the skillset.

Configuring rule inputs


Rules are automatically based on the recipient address; however, you can use
keyword groups and sender groups to define more detailed rules.

From the examples at the beginning of this section, we can consider the inputs
for each rule:

Examples:
The magazine example suggests that readers can send an e-mail with “Good
Investing” in the subject to the contact center to get more information about a
particular investment. Create a rule to search the subject of incoming e-mail
messages for “Good Investing.” You can send an auto-response and close the
contact by using keywords to determine if the subject of the incoming e-mail
message is “Good Investing.”

770 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Configuring e-mail settings and routing

When an e-mail comes into the contact center, a rule checks to see if the
keywords “Good Investing” are in the e-mail subject. If a match is found, then
the rule is followed (if the rule is enabled). If the keywords are not in the e-mail,
the e-mail does not match the rule, and the remaining rules are checked.
In the second example, if an e-mail arrives at the contact center from a very
important client, you can create a rule to route this client’s contacts to a skillset
that is assigned to a highly specialized agent. You can assign a specialized
skillset to the important client by creating a sender group that includes this
client’s e-mail address.

When an e-mail comes into the contact center, the rule checks to see if the
sender address matches the very important client. If it does, then the rule is
followed (if the rule is enabled). If the sender address does not match the rule,
then the remaining rules are checked.

Adding keyword groups to the rule


A keyword group is a list of words or groups of words that you can search in an
e-mail message. Keyword groups associate keywords and expressions
considered important by the contact center to be handled in a particular way—
assign a skillset, close the contact, or send an auto-response.

Keyword groups are optional; however, you can use up to three keyword groups
as input parameters for your rule.

d. In the Keyword box, type a word or a group of words related to the


keyword group you are creating.
Note: The keyword search in an e-mail message is not case sensitive. If
you add the word John, the E-mail Manager also matches JOHN and john.
Note: The Keyword box supports the unicode UTF-8 character set.
Note: Keyword groups support only * and ? wildcard characters.
Example: The asterisk (*) represents multiple characters. For example, t*
specifies a list of all the words that start with t. The question mark (?)
represents a single character. For example, p?t specifies all three letter
words that start with p and end with t.
A keyword does not support the following characters: + - & | ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ “ ~ :
and \. If you use any of these characters in your keywords, you receive an
error message stating that the keyword contains invalid characters.
e. Click Add.
Result: The keyword or expression is added to the list, and the
keyword group is created.
Note: You must assign at least one keyword to a keyword group before you
can save the keyword group.
f. Repeat steps d and e to add more keywords to the list.
g. Click Save.
h. Click Close to close the Keyword Groups window.
2 With the selected keyword highlighted, click the black arrow ( ) to insert
the keyword group name into the selection box.
3 Repeat step 2 for a second and third keyword group, if desired.
4 Between each keyword group selection, click AND or AND NOT to create a
logical expression for your keyword groups.
Note: If the same word appears in two keyword groups separated by a NOT
operator, the rule fails. The e-mail is evaluated by the next rule configured
for the recipient mailbox.

Adding sender groups to the rule


You must place any sender addresses that you want to track in a sender group.
Sender groups can be used to route important sender e-mail addresses to
skillsets.

Configuring rule output actions


An e-mail that matches a particular rule must be assigned to a skillset, or closed.
An auto-response can be created to reply to the e-mail.

Examples:
In the magazine example, if the subject line contains the correct text, then a
brochure about the investment can be automatically sent to the customer. No
interaction from an agent is required. The rule for the e-mail about “Good
Investing” can ensure a specific response to the customer e-mail message: send
an auto-response (with the brochure as an e-mail attachment) and then close the
contact.
An e-mail arrives from the most important client of the company. A rule ensures
the following response to the e-mail: assign a skillset named “VIP” and add a
high priority to the e-mail message.

Maintaining the database Standard 1.0

Overview

To manage your database, and prevent losing all of your data in case of hardware
or software failure, back up your data regularly. Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound contains the following tools to ensure that you minimize losing your
data:
„ a backup utility that backs up the contact and customer details in the
multimedia database
„ a restore utility that restores any backed-up contact and customer details to
the multimedia database on the server
„ an archive utility that stores the contact and customer details in the
multimedia database
For more information about archiving the contact and customer details, see
Chapter 12, “Archiving and restoring data.”
„ a warm standby server, or redundancy server, used for quick recovery if the
primary server fails
For more information about installing and configuring your redundancy
server, see Chapter 5, “Installing the Redundancy server.”

Note: You must perform a back up of the multimedia database every time a
Contact Center Manager server backup is performed.

832 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Maintaining the database

Maintaining the Multimedia server

The following list describes the administration maintenance required for the
Multimedia server:
1. Check the e-mail server mailboxes for any mail that was not processed by
the E-mail Manager. Log on to the e-mail server and look at the number of
e-mail messages in each recipient’s inbox. This number reduces each time
the E-mail Manager scans the recipient mailboxes. Nortel recommends that
the administrator add the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound mailboxes
to the e-mail client.
2. Monitor the amount of disk space available for the multimedia database and
purge unnecessary data when required. For more information, see Chapter
12, “Archiving and restoring data”.
3. Monitor the amount of disk space available for the attachment folder and
purge unnecessary data when required.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 833


Maintaining the database Standard 1.0

Configuring the destination location for a


backup

The backup utility creates a full backup of the database and the e-mail
attachments, not an incremental backup since the last backup was performed.

Note: Use the Multimedia backup utility only to back up the Caché database that
includes the .DAT file, stored in \Nortel\Contact Center\MMDatabase the
associated Caché journal files and (optionally) e-mail attachments. The
Windows operating system and log files are not backed up using the Multimedia
backup utility.

You can back up the database to a file in one of the following locations:
„ a mapped drive on a network with a capacity 10 percent larger than the
database size
Note: If you are performing a backup that includes e-mail attachments,
your mapped network share must be NTFS.
„ a backup tape with a capacity 10 percent larger than the database size and
supported in the Microsoft Compatibility List for Windows
(www.microsoft.com). If your database is 10 GB, your backup is nearly 11
GB.
Note: Backing up to a local folder is not recommended.

You can also include e-mail attachment folders in your backup, or leave them
out. If you choose to back up your e-mail attachment folders, the e-mail
attachments must be backed up to a mapped drive on a network; they cannot be
backed up on a tape drive. If you back up both the Caché database and the e-mail
attachments to the network drive, the capacity of the network drive must be 10
percent larger than the database size plus the size of the e-mail attachment
folders.

834 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Maintaining the database

Note: If you are performing a backup that includes e-mail attachments, your
mapped network share must be NTFS.

ATTENTION
Risk of backup failure
Nortel recommends that you use the default attachment
locations defined during installation. If required, you can
choose a different location for the inbound and outbound
shared e-mail folders. If you choose a different location, you
must ensure that you:
„ Create the inbound e-mail attachment folder with the path
MailAttachments/Inbound.
„ Create the outbound folder with the path MailAttachments/
Outbound.
„ Share the inbound and outbound folders with the users
CCMMOPSUSR and IUSR_<Servername>.
„ Set the NTFS access permissions for CCMMOPSUSR and
IUSR_<Servername>.
„ Configure the correct folders in the e-mail attachment
locations in the Multimedia Administrator application. For
more information, see the Multimedia Administrator online
Help.

Use the backup and restore feature of the Multimedia server to:
„ Perform an immediate backup of the Multimedia database and e-mail
attachment folders.
„ Schedule a daily or weekly backup of the Multimedia database and e-mail
attachment folders.
„ Cancel a scheduled backup.
„ Restore a previous backup.

ATTENTION
The backup and restore utility can take up to several hours
to complete, depending on the amount of data.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 835


Maintaining the database Standard 1.0

Note: The backup utility backs up only the database and, if you choose, the
e-mail attachment folders. It does not back up log files or the server operating
system. If desired, you can back up the log files when you back up your
Multimedia database using a third-party utility.

Follow your corporate policies to use a third-party utility to back up the


Windows operating system on your server.

Perform an immediate backup of the default database before you run Contact
Center Multimedia/Outbound.

The attachment upload size (Contact Center Multimedia Administrator


application) and the logging settings (Log Configuration) are not backed up by
the database backup process.

Creating the backup destination


You can back up the database to a file in one of the following locations:
„ a mapped drive on a network
„ a backup tape

On the network computer where you store the backup, you must do one of the
following:
„ ensure that your user account is in the same domain as the Contact Center
Multimedia server, or
„ create a new user that is in the same domain as the Contact Center
Multimedia server and log on as this new user

To back up your database on a mapped drive


1 On the network computer where you store the backup, do the following:
a. Create a folder named Backup.
b. Right-click the new folder, and then click Properties.

Archiving and restoring data Standard 1.0

Overview

Archive the Contact Center Multimedia database regularly to clear up space in


the database partition of your server. The archive schedule must reflect your
contact center volume to prevent large archive files.

If you require a copy of the previous data, you can use any archive or backup
file, or a combination of both.

Track the archive and backup files you create to know what data is in each
archive, and how it is organized.

854 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Archiving and restoring data

Archiving the database

The data from the Multimedia database is archived to tab-delimited text files that
can be viewed in third-party applications such as Microsoft Access.

If the archiving is done infrequently, the archive files can be large, so an archive
schedule must reflect your contact center volume.

You can archive contacts associated with the following elements:


„ skillsets
„ rules
„ outbound campaigns

For example, if you know there is no more action expected for a particular
skillset, you can archive the contacts associated with that skillset.

When you archive data, you can also choose to archive the customer data with
the contact data. You cannot, however, choose to archive contacts associated
with a customer.

Before you begin to archive your contacts, you must determine which type of
archive or restore you would like to use.

Starting the Archive utility


1 On the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > Nortel Contact Center
> Multimedia Server > CCMM Administrator.

Overview

This chapter describes the support of Simple Network Management Protocol


(SNMP) traps with Contact Center 6.0.

Windows provides a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent,


which runs as a service on the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound server. You
can use this service to forward events to a Network Management System (NMS)
on your network. To do so, you must do the following tasks:
„ Ensure that Contact Center 6.0 products are generating sufficient events for
new and existing features. These events must be registered correctly so they
can be viewed correctly in Windows Event Viewer.
„ Configure the Windows SNMP service on the server. See “Configuring the
Windows SNMP service on the server” on page 872.
„ Select the types of events to be forwarded to the NMS. See “Using the
Event to Trap Translator to select events” on page 874.
„ Configure the NMS, according to your NMS documentation.

Creating Log reports

Use the Multimedia Log Configuration window to select the location of and
detail stored in log files for the components of the Multimedia Server. You can
filter these events by event codes when you experience problems with your
system. The log files are stored in the CCMMLogs folder on the same drive as
the operating system.

In the Log Configuration window, you can select:


„ the verbosity or severity of the logging that you want to filter
„ which Multimedia components generate log files
„ the directory in which the system stores the log files

The verbosity ranges from 1 to 6, as follows:


1. Critical errors only—Only critical errors. Critical errors require
immediate action to resolve a system failure.
2. Critical and major errors—All critical and major errors. Major errors are
reported when the system is working; however, the functionality is
impaired.
3. All errors—All critical, major, and minor errors. Minor errors are reported
when the system is working as is most of the functionality; however, some
of the functionality is impaired.
4. All errors and first-level trace information—Debugging information at
the page level.
5. All errors, first- and second-level trace information—Debugging
information at the functional level.
6. All errors and all levels of trace information—All debugging
information.

Note: Verbosities 1 to 3 are logged in the Event Log.

The default verbosity is 4. With a verbosity of 4, you can see all of the error
messages and the first-level traces.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 867


Alarms and events Standard 1.0

The default log size is 200 000 bytes. When the current log file is full, it
becomes a backup file, and a new log file appears. When the second log file is
full, the backup file is deleted, and the second log file becomes the backup file.

Reading the Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound trace file


Each trace file provides the following information for each of the event codes:
„ timestamp
„ date and time
„ component
„ event code
„ log level
„ process ID
„ description
„ module, function name, line number, or all three

General security precautions

Common security practice suggests your servers and network have multiple
lines of defense against viruses and other malicious intruders. By establishing a
layered security, you help to keep out as many threats to your security as
possible. Working in concert, the following devices or applications can help to
keep out unwanted traffic, notify you when unauthorized access does occur, and
protect your computer from known Trojans, worms, and viruses.
„ A hardware- or software-based firewall on a separate computer or device.
Regardless of what type you use, the firewall represents your outer
boundary of protection.
„ An antivirus software program that meets the requirements of the Contact
Center Multimedia software. For more information, see the Contact Center
Multimedia Technical Requirements and Operating System Configuration
Guide.

Write down any new passwords and store them in a secure place for future
reference. Passwords are case-sensitive.

New passwords must be


„ unique
„ alphanumeric (containing at least one number)
„ a minimum of six characters
„ not nouns

Example
xyd45fst

Changing passwords
Change passwords at the following times:
„ during the initial system setup after the operating system is installed
„ at regular intervals for maximum security
„ if you experience trouble logging on to Windows
„ if the server software is reinstalled (the default accounts and passwords are
recreated, so passwords must be changed)

Note: If you require support from Nortel or your distributor, you must tell them
any new passwords.

For more information, refer to the documentation for your e-mail server.
Result: The configuration is complete. If an error is reported in the
EmailManager.log file: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Could not

was signed with a certificate from a signing authority that is untrusted or
you are using a test certificate, proceed to “Enabling SMTP Authentication
on your e-mail server” on page 893.
5 Use Java keytool to enable trust for a signing authorities certificate. By
default, Java application SSL implementations automatically trust many of
the major certificate authorities such as Verisign or Thawte. However, if you
are using a test certificate you must add the following text to C:\Program
Files\Java\jrel.5.0\lib\security\cacerts:
keytool -import -alias mycacert -file mycacert.cer -
keystore
Replace mycacert with the actual name of the certificate. The keytool can
be run from C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0\bin or any folder if the Java Bin
folder is in the System Path.
6 When you are prompted for a keystore password, use the default install
password for the JRE trust keystore, changeit.
7 After the certificate details are printed, you are prompted to Trust this
certificate.

SMTP Authentication

SMTP Authentication is a mechanism of restricting non-authenticated clients


from relaying messages outside your organization. Agents who want to send
external e-mail must provide their logon credentials to the e-mail server before
their e-mail is relayed. Failure to authenticate leads to either an immediate
message from the e-mail server indicating that relaying is prohibited or a non-
delivery report e-mail at a later time. Organizations generally implement SMTP
authentication to prevent SPAM messages being relayed through their networks.
For more information, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q197869.

For more information, refer to the following RFCs:


„ RFC 821 – Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
„ RFC 1869 – SMTP Service Extensions
„ RFC 2045 – Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME)
„ RFC 2554 – SMTP Service Extension for Authentication

Note: You can obtain copies from http://www.ietf.org

Enabling SMTP Authentication on your e-mail server


SMTP authentication varies from e-mail server to e-mail server. The steps below
describe how to enable SMTP authentication for Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5.
1 Log on to the Microsoft Exchange Server with domain administrative
privileges.
2 Start the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program.
3 Under the Configuration branch, double-click Internet Mail Service.
4 On the Routing tab, click Routing Restrictions.
5 Ensure the Only Hosts and Clients who successfully authenticate
check box is selected.
6 Restart the Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service.

Determining if SMTP Authentication is enabled


You can use telnet to verify if the server's response to the SMTP commands is
enabled on an e-mail server.
1 Start telnet and connect to the IP Address or host name of the mail server.
Connect using the well known port for SMTP (Port 25). Ensure that your
telnet application is enabling a local echo.
Result: The following message appears:
220 SERVERNAME.DOMAIN.COM ESMTP Server (Microsoft
Exchange
Internet Mail Service 5.5.2650.21) ready
2 Type HELO.
3 Try to send an e-mail message to an external address using the MAIL
command:
MAIL FROM: anymailbox
250 OK - mail from <anymailbox>
4 Specify recipients using the RCPT command.
Result: If SMTP Authentication is enabled, you see the following:
RCPT TO: anyone@externaladdress.com
550 Relaying is prohibited
Otherwise, you receive the message:
RCPT TO: anyone@externaladdress.com
250 OK - Recipient <anyone@externaladdress.com>
5 If you find that SMTP Authentication is not enabled, you can continue to
send an e-mail message using the DATA command:
DATA
354 Send data. End with CRLF.CRLF
6 Conclude the e-mail message by typing <ENTER> . <ENTER>
Result: The e-mail message is sent.
250 OK

Troubleshooting network connectivity

This section suggests steps to complete to ensure that the network connectivity
between the components of the Contact Center suite is running effectively.

CMF not working


In the CCTServer.log file, you can review errors that indicate that the Content
Management Framework is not responding to requests from the Communication
Control Toolkit clients, and there are problems with the network connectivity for
all of the Contact Center servers.

If you find the out-of service text in CCTServer.log, the error indicates that the
connection between Contact Center Multimedia and Contact Center Manager
Server is out of service due to network issues.
[Peer] Service Provider Status Change Event - Provider:
CCMM, Status: MasterApplicationFailure
[ActiveProvider CCMM] Service provider has gone out-of-
service

[Peer] Service Provider Status Change Event - Provider:


ContactManager, Status: MasterApplicationFailure
[ContactManager] Service provider has gone out-of-
service

You can also determine if there are network problems on the site by examining
the following files for the text,
java.net.SocketExemption

Look in the following locations:


„ On the Contact Center Manager server, review D:\Nortel\Core\CMF\<latest
version>\logs\OAMContainer.log, where <latest version> is the latest
version of Content Management Framework software installed.
„ On the Communication Control Toolkit server, review
C:\Program Files\Nortel\CCT\CMF\logs\SPContainer.log.

May 2006 Troubleshooting

„ On the Communication Control Toolkit server, review


C:\Program Files\Nortel\CCT\CMF\logs\ClientContainer.log.

Items to check during a network examination


To check the network connectivity, perform the following steps:
1. Check the network cable fault. To check the network cables, you must have
a cable that is known to work, and replace the existing cable with the
working one.
2. Check the network card speed and duplex settings. Communication Control
Toolkit to Contact Center Manager Server settings must match in the same
segment. Also, Contact Center Manager Server and the switch settings
must match in the same segment.
3. Check the physical network card for faults.
4. Check the network hub. Check both hardware and software (if applicable)
problems in your hub.
5. If your hub is a switched hub, ensure that a virtual LAN separation is not
present at a hardware or software level. If a virtual LAN separation is
present, the performance of the connection between Communication
Control Toolkit and Contact Center Manager Server is minimal.
6. Ensure the ability for Windows to turn off the network card to save power is
disabled. Windows Server 2003 has a power management setting for
network cards.
7. Ensure the network card has the latest driver software release.

Troubleshooting licensing configuration

The License Manager server contains the files required to determine what
features and functionality are enabled in the Contact Center. For information
about the contents of the license file, see Appendix B, “Feature licensing.”

Verify licensing is working


If the licensing is working properly, the enabled bit in the cls.Licenses table for
the Contact Center Multimedia caché database is 1.

When you restart the Contact Center Multimedia server, if the Caché service
runs for 20 minutes and then shuts down, you have a licensing issue.

If you have a licensing server issue, review the following items to resolve the
problem:
„ Verify the Multimedia services are started.
„ Check the contents of the license registry.
„ Check the connection between the Multimedia server and the License
server.
„ Check the name of the License server in the Multimedia Administrator.
„ Choose the correct license type.
„ Check the licenses in your contact center.
„ Review the license log files.

All of these steps are described in this section.

Verifying the Multimedia services are started


Check that the License Manager and Starter services are started on the Contact
Center Multimedia server.

Technical support

All hardware diagnostics are the responsibility of the hardware vendor. Verify
the manufacturer’s instructions before you perform any hardware-related
procedure.

Before you install Contact Center Multimedia, you must verify your selected
servers. This verification includes making sure the computers conform to the
specifications listed in the Nortel Contact Center Planning and Engineering
Guide and the Nortel Contact Center Multimedia Technical Requirements and
Operating System Configuration Guide. You must also ensure that the operating
system is installed and functioning properly.

Nortel can provide support during the installation and configuration of Contact
Center Multimedia using your installation of pcAnywhere, or the remote
desktop configuration. For more information, see “Step 3. Install your remote
support access tool” on page 46.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 931


Using serviceability tools Standard 1.0

Using the E-mail Manager Memory


Management utility

You can use the E-mail Manager Memory Utility to perform maintenance and
diagnostic tools on the Multimedia server.

If an error occurs, record the error message, the system configuration, and the
actions taken before and after the error occurred. If the problem persists, contact
your Nortel customer support representative.

You can use the E-mail Manager Memory Management utility to change the
amount of memory allocated to the E-mail Manager.

The mechanism by which inbound e-mail messages are processed requires that
every e-mail message is held in memory for a brief time while it is decoded and
processed. This places a limit on the maximum size of a given e-mail message
that the E-mail Manager can handle.

The E-mail Manager Memory Manager ensures that memory limits are not
exceeded. This section describes how the memory manager calculates these
limits, and how to determine the maximum size e-mail supported.

Note: Large e-mail attachments may degrade the e-mail throughput.

Configuring memory allocation for e-mail


If you want the system to receive e-mail greater than 69 MB, then you must
configure the memory allocation for e-mail messages. By default the system
cannot process e-mail messages that are greater than 69 MB.

To configure the memory allocation for e-mail


1 Browse to C:\Program Files\Nortel\Contact Center Multimedia/
Outbound\Multimedia Server\Email Manager\Utilities\EmailMemory.exe.
2 Double-click EmailMemory.exe.
Result: The Memory Allocation window appears.

3 Make the necessary changes, and then click OK.


Result: The Change Memory Setting window appears.
4 Click Yes.

Maximum attachment size formula


The maximum attachment size formulas use the following variables:
„ Encoding adjustment The factor by which the attachment size increases
when the attachment is encoded and attached to an e-mail message.
„ Memory adjustment The factor by which the encoded size increases when
an e-mail message is loaded into the internal representation of the e-mail
message in memory.
„ Buffer memory The memory required by the parts of the application not
involved in processing inbound e-mail messages, which is fairly static.

The approximate values for these variables, used when calculating how much
memory to reserve to process an e-mail message, are:
„ Encoding adjustment: 1.3 (this can vary slightly based on the encoding
used)
„ Memory adjustment: 1.2 (this factor decreases slightly, the larger the
e-mail is, but it has been left as a fixed value)
„ Buffer memory: 20 MB

Note: When the following subsections specify an attachment size, they refer to
the total size of all attachments of an e-mail message. Also, the size of the body
of an e-mail lowers the supported attachment size by the size of the content of
the message. However, in most cases, the content of an e-mail is negligible
compared to large attachments.

May 2006 Contact life cycles

Outbound contacts

The life cycle of an outbound contact is shown as follows:

1. The contact is loaded into the Database from the outbound campaign.
An administrator in your contact center creates an outbound campaign
using the Outbound Campaign Management Tool accessed in Contact
Center Manager Administration.
2. The notification that the outbound contacts that are part of the campaign are
received is passed to the Open Queue.
3. The outbound calls are created as objects in Open Queue.
The outbound script is applied, using information such as the skillset and
priority and contact type assigned to the outbound campaign. From the
script, it is determined which agent receives the contact.
4. The contact is passed to the Communication Control Toolkit to present the
contact to an agent.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 969


Contact life cycles Standard 1.0

5. The contact is presented to the agent in the Contact Center Agent Desktop.
Associated contact data, such as contact information is passed to the
Contact Center Agent Desktop along with the outbound call.
6. Customer details for the contact are received from the Multimedia database
through the web services.
7. The outbound call is initiated on the agent’s desktop using the dialing
properties configured in the outbound campaign.
8. The outbound call is established between the agent and the customer.
9. Customer detail updates and additions to the contact history are stored in
Multimedia database.
10. While the agent and customer are on the call the agent can use the agent
script to enter information from the customer. The agent script is configured
in the outbound campaign.
11. When the agent is finished with the call, the agent chooses a disposition
code, and disconnects from the call to complete the contact.
The disposition code is logged in the reports and determines whether the
agent script is saved.

970 Contact Center Multimedia/Outbound


May 2006 Contact life cycles

E-mail messages

The life cycle of an e-mail message is shown as follows:

1. The contact is loaded into the Database from the E-mail server.
You configure recipient mailboxes and a polling interval in the Contact
Center Multimedia Administrator tool (E-mail Manager). The E-mail
Manager checks the corresponding mailboxes on the e-mail server at the
specified polling interval. When new e-mail messages are found, they are
moved into the Multimedia database.
2. The notification that the e-mail contact is received is passed to the Open
Queue.
The E-mail Manager uses the regular default rules and your configured
rules to assign a skillset, and priority to the contact. Some rules also sent an
auto-response to the customer immediately, without interaction from the
agent.
3. The e-mail message is created as an object in Open Queue.

Installation and Maintenance Guide 971


Contact life cycles Standard 1.0

The e-mail script is applied, using information such as the skillset and
priority and contact type assigned to the e-mail message. From the script, it
is determined which agent receives the contact.
The contact information is also included in reports.
4. The contact is passed to the Communication Control Toolkit to present the
contact to an agent.
5. The contact is presented to the agent in the Contact Center Agent Desktop.
6. Associated contact data, such as the ID and contact information is passed to
the Contact Center Agent Desktop along with the e-mail message.
7. Customer details for the contact are received from the Multimedia database
through the web services.
8. The agent replies are written to the Multimedia database through Web
Services. The E-mail Manager polls the database for outgoing e-mail
messages.
Information about what e-mail address is used for replies to customers is
configured in the Contact Center Multimedia Administrator E-mail
Manager configuration.
Customer detail updates, additions to the contact history, and contact ID
information are stored in Multimedia database.
9. The agent closes the e-mail contact by specifying a closed reason code, if
closed reason codes are configured in the Contact Center Multimedia
Administrator.
Alternately, the agent can postpone the contact, forward the contact to
another agent, or forward the contact to a person outside of the contact
center. The agent then is reassigned the contact to complete it later.
