Any general numbers available on how many Consoles can be attached to a
server/cluster?  Or does this just have a weight assigned like the phones?

The only caveat I would add is the ac user password can be changed from the
default of 12345.  To do this, you need to edit a text file located in
\Program Files\Cisco\CallManagerAttendant\etc.  The text file your looking
for is ACServer.properties.  If you open that up with notepad, you will see
the jtapi ac user account and a hash for the password.  To change the
password, you need a hash, which can be created, by running from the command
line, acenc.exe (found in  \Program Files\Cisco\CallManagerAttendant\bin).
You run that exe from the command line with a password right after that.
The exe spits out a hash of your word.  Enter that hash in the
ACServer.properties text file, then change the ac user password in the CCM
user database and walla, a secured ac user is born.

 

One last trivial point, notice on the bottom of that ACServer.properties
text file is a circular hunt group entry.  Enter the NAME of the hunt group
you want to be circular and walla, you now have a circular hunt group in
3.3(x).

Installing the plugin is

 

http://your-callmanager/ccmAdmin/install.asp

That should list the Attendant Console plugin on your CCM for local install.

 

I saved mine to a network share so I didn't have to log into the CCM again
and again from each workstation.

 

Be sure that the phone has a user set up in Global Directory (CCM menu,
User>>Add User)

The user must be associated to the phone, and have CTI rights (checkbox)

 

The user logs into Attendant Console with their own username/password combo 

the 'AC' user is what controls the lines from the CCM to inform the user as
to status of others lines etc...

 

It's reasonably straightforward-- making sure that the 'ac' user is
associated with all the phones you want to use Attendant Console with is the
key thing.

I didn't 'get' the part about the 'ac' user at first-- tried to make up my
own name for that user, etc- -- HAVE to use it the way Cisco says in the
below doc.

 

This is the directions for configuring Attendant Console-

Does anyone know the exact steps(beyond saying that it's a plugin) or a url
to install CallManager 4.1's Attendant Console 1.3 on a Windows XP machine?
