The Optivity Telephony Manager Release 2.0
(OTM 2.0) provides concurrency up to (and
including) release 25.40 as well as CSE 1000 release
2.0.OTM 2.0 includes the feature enhancements
described below:
Succession CSE 1000 Release 2.0 Concurrence.
The OTM 2.0 applications have been modified to
support the introduction of new components in the
CSE 1000 Rel 2.0 solution. It includes the support of
new set (i2002) as well as the support for branch
office and virtual office.
Empowered Web Navigation. The OTM navigators
(Windows and Web based) provide a display of
Succession CSE 1000 elements in a network view.
Succession CSE1000 network elements that can be
displayed include Gatekeepers, Call Servers and
Signaling Servers. The OTM navigators will allow
administrators to select specific elements by clicking
on the displayed element, which will cause their
browser to link to the CSE “on-board ”Web server
and proceed to management “direct to the element”.
Also, since CSE is a distributed system, a new
network view (called Gatekeeper Zones) is created in
the OTM navigators. It provides a “logical ” view of
components that are linked to a given Gatekeeper as
opposed to a “geographical” view of components in
given physical locations.
Improved Security and User Access Control.
Starting on OTM Release 2.0, administrators can
now create new user groups and define for all type
of accesses one or more authentication methods.
The authentication can be done through a local OTM
server account, a Windows NT domain account or
using an LPAP server.
All passwords stored in OTM database will be
encrypted (Windows Crypto API) as well as
passwords used for synchronisation with LDAP
servers (SSL encryption).
