18 Unified ICM Configuration

2.1. Configuring the DMS-100 ACD

To best understand the configuration of the DMS-100 ACD, begin with the DMS-100 documentation shipped with your switch. The information provided here is meant to supplement and not to replace the Nortel DMS-

100 documentation.

2.1.1.Configuring the Peripheral

The “Configure a PG” option in Configure ICM automatically creates a peripheral object with the appropriate defaults for a DMS-100 peripheral. If desired, these values can be modified through the peripheral screen in Configure ICM.

The “Available Holdoff Delay” setting will be used by all Skill Groups for this peripheral that do not explicitly specify a value for the “Available Holdoff Delay” at the Skill Group level.

2.1.2.Configuring the Peripheral Targets

A peripheral target should be configured for each combination of Network Trunk Group and DNIS that can receive ACD calls. Peripheral targets must also be configured for translation routing

2.1.3.Attributing Calls to Unified ICM Routes

For route statistics, the PG attributes calls to the routes by looking for a peripheral target that matches the Trunk Group and DNIS for the call and using the route associated with that peripheral target. If no matching peripheral target is found, then the call is attributed to the default route for the peripheral (if one is configured).

2.2.Services

See the Services section X2.12.5X, for specifics about when to configure the Unified ICM services.

2.3. Skill Groups

See the Skill Groups section X2.12.7X, for a discussion of when to configure Unified ICM Skill Groups.

The “Available Holdoff Delay” should be set to the value of the Variable WrapUp for this ACD DN. This value is left as “Use Peripheral Default,” then the default value configured for this peripheral will be used.

The DMS-100 switch does not strictly associate call WrapUp time with individual calls. The DMS-100 tracks the total time spent by an Agent in the NotReady state. The Average Work Time is calculated as (ACD TalkTime + NotReady Time) / Calls Answered.

The Agent can enter the NotReady state at any time and begin accumulating NotReady Time.

SL-100, DMS-100 specifications

Cisco Systems DMS-100 and SL-100 are advanced digital media systems that play a crucial role in the telecommunications landscape. These platforms are designed primarily for the efficient delivery of voice and data services, making them integral components in the next-gen network architecture.

The DMS-100 is known for its robustness, serving as a digital central office switch. It supports the essential functions of voice service delivery, including call processing, routing, and signaling for local and long-distance calls. One of its standout features is its adaptability, allowing service providers to scale services based on demand. This scalability ensures that operators can efficiently manage large volumes of voice traffic without compromising on quality.

On the other hand, the SL-100 is distinguished by its flexibility and cost-effectiveness. It is a compact, modular platform that enables operators to offer a variety of services, including VoIP, multimedia communications, and more. The SL-100’s design caters to smaller service providers or those looking to extend their services without a massive infrastructure investment. Its modularity ensures that operators can add or change functionalities as the market evolves.

Both systems incorporate advanced technologies crucial for modern telecommunications. They leverage softswitch technology, which facilitates the transition from traditional circuit-switched networks to IP-based architectures. This shift allows for better resource utilization and reduced operational costs, as voice calls can be transmitted over existing data networks.

Moreover, both the DMS-100 and SL-100 support HD Voice and other enhancements that ensure crystal-clear voice quality. They employ various codecs and signaling protocols, including H.323 and SIP, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices and platforms. Additionally, both systems provide extensive monitoring and management capabilities, allowing service providers to analyze performance metrics and quickly troubleshoot issues.

In terms of security, Cisco has integrated several features that protect against unauthorized access and service disruptions. This focus on security is essential, particularly as networks become more interconnected and exposed to potential threats.

Overall, the Cisco DMS-100 and SL-100 embody pioneering technologies that meet the demanding needs of modern telecommunications. Their combination of scalability, flexibility, security, and advanced features makes them invaluable assets for service providers striving to deliver high-quality voice and data services in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
