Release Notes for Avaya Scopia® XT Series
What’s New | 12
When a contact Bob subscribes to Alice, some presence servers allow Alice to approve such
request, and to grant/revoke the possibility for Bob to view Alice's status. Other servers grant Alice's
presence view to Bob automatically.
Figure 5:
Alice Registers to a Presence Server
Alice can grant or ignore Bob's request to view her presence status. If Alice grants to Bob access to
her presence status, Bob can query current Alice's status when he connects to the server and will
be notified every time Alice's status changes
Figure 6:
Alice Grants Presence Status View to Bob
If the presence server supports such service, Alice can revoke Bob's access to her presence status.
Bob can also unsubscribe from Alice's presence any time.

Always Accept Subscriptions: Yes*/No. If enabled, the received subscription requests will be
automatically accepted. This means that a contact that sent a subscription request to see XT
presence will be able to see it without further action on XT side. If disabled, a list of active
subscription requests is visible and each of them must be manually accepted or rejected (see
“Subscription Request List”). This option is not configurable for Aura Presence Server, which
always accept subscriptions without waiting for authorizations.
Automatic Mutual Subscription: Yes*/No. If enabled, every time XT receives a subscription
request from a contact, it will automatically subscribe to see the presence of such contact. So, if
