VPIM subscriber

Formerly known as “Internet Voice Connector,” “IVC,” or “Voice Gateway.” The Cisco Unity Voice Connector for Exchange is a Cisco Unity networking component that enables messaging between Cisco Unity servers that access separate directories, and between Cisco Unity servers and other voice messaging systems. The Voice Connector registers with Exchange to handle certain message address types (AMIS, OMNI, VOICE, and VPIM). The Voice Connector takes different actions depending on the address type. For example, with the VPIM address type, the Voice Connector encodes the message according to the VPIM specification and adjusts the “To” and “From” addresses. The Voice Connector for Exchange 2000 also works with Exchange 2003; there is not a separate Voice Connector for Exchange 2003.

Voice Profile for Internet Mail. An industry-standard Internet messaging protocol to allow disparate voice messaging systems to exchange voice messages over the Internet or any TCP/IP network. VPIM is based on the SMTP and MIME protocols.

A Cisco Unity networking option. Allows messaging between Cisco Unity and other voice messaging systems that support the Voice Profile for Internet Mail (VPIM) version 2 protocol. Messages are exchanged by using SMTP over the Internet or any TCP/IP network. Cisco Unity and the other voice messaging systems maintain separate voice mail directories.

VPIM subscribers are a representation in Cisco Unity of subscribers on a remote voice messaging system. VPIM subscribers are associated with a delivery location and are stored as contacts in Active Directory. Cisco Unity subscribers address messages to VPIM subscribers just like they do to regular subscribers, but the messages are sent via VPIM to the applicable mailbox on the remote voice messaging system. VPIM subscribers can be included in Cisco Unity public distribution lists, and outside callers can leave them messages (if they are listed in the Cisco Unity phone directory).
