PictureTel 3.1 Sample Configuration, Operator-assisted Calls, Always Use Operator Station Feature

2.If no tones are received within 30 seconds, the call is routed to the H.323 client designated as the operator station. If an H.323 Terminal that supports call transfer, such as LiveLAN, is being used as the operator station, an operator (person) asks for the name or H.323 Terminal ID, and then transfers the call normally. If an operator station is not specified, the call is disconnected.

Note: Any PictureTel LiveLAN Terminal can be designated as an operator station. Other H.323 terminals, however, may not support this function.

Operator-assisted Calls

When a LiveLAN client is designated as an operator station, LiveGateway directs incoming calls requiring operator assistance to that station. Calls without DTMF are examples of calls that require operator assistance.

To designate a LiveLAN client as an operator station, the LiveManager administrator must enter the H.323 Terminal ID of the client into the LiveManager operator station mapping file.

When an incoming H.320 call requires operator assistance, LiveGateway uses the information in the LiveManager mapping file to pass the call to the operator station. From there, the operator transfers the call using LiveLAN’s call transfer capability. For more information, refer to the PictureTel LiveManager Product Guide.

If an operator station is not specified in the LiveManager operator station mapping file, the call will be disconnected if:

•The H.320 terminal does not have DTMF capability.

•The H.320 terminal has DTMF capability, but the caller does not know the destination H.323 Terminal ID.

•An incorrect H.323 Terminal ID is entered.

The "Always Use Operator Station" Feature

You can configure LiveGateway to use the Operator Station to answer all incoming LiveGateway calls by enabling the "Always Use Operator Station" checkbox on the LiveGateway Configuration utility window when you install LiveGateway. The feature is enabled when a checkmark appears in the checkbox. The system default for this feature is set to disabled. Click on it to enable it. Refer to Running the LiveGateway Configuration Utility for specific information on how to change LiveGateway board configuration information.

Sample Configuration

The following diagram shows a sample configuration consisting of an ISDN WAN, a LiveGateway, LiveLAN clients, and an H.320 client.
