CHAPTER 1 Introduction

Welcometo the NexPath Telephony Server! The NexPath Telephony Server is a complete integrated tele-

phone system,including switching (or PBX-type functions), voice mail, automated attendant, automated call

distribution (or ACD), and network access andadministration. This unique solution to small company tele-

phone systems allows you to have mostif not all of the features of a large company PBX at a fraction of the

cost of these larger systems.

In fact, in many ways the NexPath TelephonyS erver goes beyondthe functionality of most traditional tele-

phone systems. The NexPath Telephony Server was the first web-enabledtelephone system when it was

introduced in late 1996. It has unique features not commonly found on larger systems, such as allowing you

to perform functions like picking up a ringing phone fromany other phone, checking and retrieving your

voice mail from any desktop computer in the building or on the Internet, ring groups within call distribution

groups, and many other features that are unique to NexPath.
