Server components
Octel Unified Messenger adds two types of servers, the voice server and
the tracing server, to the Microsoft Exchange Server environment.
Voice server An Octel Unified Messenger voice server provides or supports the
following functions:
n Call management. This function provides an interface between
the voice cards and the Octel Unified Messenger telephony
applications.
n Messaging. This function provides communication between
Microsoft Exchange and the Octel Unified Messenger
applications.
n User Profile. This function provides access to the data associated
with individual subscribers, such as numeric address and spoken
name.
n Text-to-speech. The voice server includes a speech synthesis
device that allows subscribers to hear their e-mail messages over
the telephone. This feature is also used for name confirmation,
when a recorded name is not available.
n Administration, configuration, and addressing support.
n OctelNet gateway support.
n Significant Event Log. The server software records significant
events or alarms in the Windows NT Event Log.
n Statistics and performance counters. The voice server software
outputs statistics and performance information using the
Windows NT Performance Monitor.
n Operation history event generation. Voice server software
components generate operation history events during their
execution. These events are written to the operation history
database.
n Fax capability. The server software detects faxes and forwards
them to third-party fax servers.
n Print capability. The server software forwards fax and e-mail
messages to third-party fax servers for printing.
