INSTALLATION AND USER GUIDE Introduction 1 Introduction About 6140 Agent Portal Mitel Networks™ 6140 Agent Portal allows an agent to receive call information via a number of different applications that can be configured to ‘pop’ or display automatically on any desktop. Agent Portal consists of two components; the Agent Portal Server and a Client. The Client is either the default Client, that is shipped with the product, or a toolkit that can be used to develop a customized application. Agent Portal uses MiTAI software to receive call events sent from the PBX to the Agent Portal Server which then transmits them to the Client via TCP/IP. (See Figure 6-1) Figure 6-1 Agent Portal architecture Agent Portal Server The Agent Portal Server performs the following tasks: • • • • starts and stops Agent Portal sessions, monitors devices and logs agents in and out of sessions receives data from the PBX via MiTAI for each call, collects details and sends this data to the agent receives login requests from the Client In addition, the Agent Portal Server can be integrated with a custom Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system to allow data to be transmitted from the IVR to the Agent Portal Server which then transmits it to the Client. The method used to physically connect the Agent Portal Server to the PBX depends on the PBX model you are using. For more information on the server hardware requirements, refer to “Agent Portal Server requirements” on page 5. 2 Introduction Client The client receives call records from the Agent Portal Server, via winsock. The client uses a programmable component, Agent Portal Control, to communicate between the Agent Portal Server and the client. The client interface to Agent Portal Control is either Agent Portal Client, the default interface shipped with the product, or Agent Portal Control, a toolkit that can be used to develop a customized application. For more information on the Agent Portal Control and the default interface, refer to: • • “Agent Portal Client” on page 2 “Agent Portal Control” on page 2 Agent Portal Client The Agent Portal Client is the default client interface that is shipped with Agent Portal. The Agent Portal Client is programmed to integrate and exchange data with the following applications: • • • • • text editor (Call Pad) Microsoft Outlook any application that supports Active Server Page (ASP) scripts any application that can receive call details as command-line arguments DDE Agent Portal Control The Agent Portal Control is a toolkit that can be used to develop an application to handle the communication between the Agent Portal Server and the Client applications. It is a programmable OLE Custom control (OCX) program that allows agent applications to interact with the Agent Portal Server. For more information on the fundamentals of the Agent Portal Control components, refer to “Appendix A: Agent Portal Control programmer reference” on page 55. Mitel PBX Agent Portal receives call events from one of the following Mitel PBXs: • • • SX-200 SX-2000 3300 ICP Introduction 3 What this guide contains This guide is intended to be used to install, configure and administer the Agent Portal system.
