Chapter 1
Installing the Application Gateway
The Avaya Application Gateway Server is an appliance that transforms
and delivers data and enhanced voice applications to a variety of
microbrowser devices, including IP phones, Wireless Application Protocol
(WAP) phones, and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs). The Application
Gateway transforms applications according to built-in transformation
rules, as well as transformation rules created in the companion PC-based
application, Design Studio.
After connecting Application Gateways into your network, phone users
immediately benefit from the built-in transformation capabilities of the
Application Gateway, gaining access to applications built for desktop
browsers. The Application Gateway determines the type of device making
a connection and formats the requested application to match the format
and constraints of the device. Design Studio users supplement the built-in
transformations to fine-tune the applications for microbrowser use.
