[cisco-voip] ARC Attdenant Console

[Syed Khalid Ali]

Thanks for the reply.
I am using CallManager Express and can you confirm about the features
that I asked in last email. Also I have just download the Arc Express
Console and looking through the documentation and the requirements are
quite strict; 32 e-phones for the server phone and similar requirement
for the BLF phone. If the some-one has 96 phones license, he/she will
have atleast 32  phones gone if wants to use Arc Express Attendant
Console.

Need comments!
Thanks
Khalid

Using CUCME 7.0(0) and IOS 12.4(20)T.
