How Multimedia Contact Center works for callers

When callers on a web site click a multimedia HTML link, the Call setup page appears.

NN40170-602

Chapter 2 Multimedia Contact Center overview 15

In the call setup page, callers specify their calling preferences. Callers can access the media types based on their needs and resources. Callers with separate data and PSTN voice lines can have a PSTN voice call while they view, receive, or even send web pages to agents. For information on Multimedia Contact Center call types, see “Multimedia Contact Center call types” on page 18.

After a caller specifies their preferences, by clicking the Connect button, the following confirmation page displays.

After the caller clicks the link, Click here to connect to an agent using Multimedia Contact Center, the multimedia call enters the Contact Center. Based on the rules created by the Contact Center administrator, the request for an agent is sent to the appropriate skillset. If an agent is not immediately available, the caller can receive periodic HTML messages (web refresh). The Contact Center administrator programs these messages. The messages can thank callers for their interest, inform them that there are no agents currently available, and tell them that they will be connected to the first available agent.

When the call is answered by an agent, the Multimedia Contact Center caller interface appears in the caller’s web browser (see “Multimedia Contact Center caller interface” on page 16).

How Multimedia Contact Center works for agents

Depending on the call preferences the caller has requested in the call setup page, the agent can have a browser-only or a phone- and-browser call with the caller. The agent can use follow-me browsing to show the caller a sequence of web pages. The agent can also send pages or screen captures, or have a text chat with the caller.

For a phone-and-browser call, the agent must answer the phone, and then the agent interface and browser window appear on the agent’s computer. For a browser-only call, the agent interface and browser window appear immediately, so the agent cannot decline this type of call. The agent’s browser window shows the web page that the caller originally clicked to start the Multimedia Contact Center call.

Chapter 2 Multimedia Contact Center overview 17

Multimedia Contact Center agent interface

The Multimedia Contact Center agent interface has two windows. The first window lets an agent control the progress of the call. The second window displays the Multimedia Contact Center web pages that the agent sends to a caller, or that a caller sends to them.

Multimedia Contact Center call types

Callers with a PSTN voice connection and a data connection, and callers with only a data connection can have a multimedia session with a Multimedia Contact Center agent.

Phone and browser calls

Phone and browser calls (PSTN voice and data) are routed by Contact Center to agents.

After a caller clicks the Multimedia Contact Center icon, the Contact Center Agent-centric call phones the caller when an agent is available. The Contact Center then connects

the call to the agent.

How phone and browser calls are routed to agents

For this type of call, the caller has a separate PSTN voice and Internet connection, and is not using the telephone.

1 The caller clicks the Multimedia Contact Center icon on a web page.

The Multimedia Contact Center Preferences and Connection page appears.

Note: If cookies are enabled, preferences from the caller’s previous call (if any) appear in the page.

2The caller completes the set up procedure. The caller:

a verifies that their version of Sun Java Runtime Environment is the most recent version (1.5.0 or higher), and downloads the most recent version if theirs is not.

b enters their full name.

c selects the By Phone and Browser radio button (a PSTN voice call with co-browsing and text chat with an agent).

d enters their phone number, with area code, in the phone number field.

NN40170-602

Chapter 2 Multimedia Contact Center overview 19

eclicks Connect.

The Caller Setup confirmation page appears.

fclicks the link Click here to connect to an agent using Multimedia Contact Center.

A request for an agent is sent over the IP network to the Contact Center.

The Multimedia Contact Center caller interface is launched in a new browser window on the caller’s PC.

Note: While the caller is waiting, web-refreshed HTML pages appear in their browser. These pages correspond to the announcements callers hear on a PSTN voice call. A new web page can be pushed for every Contact Center announcement.

Note: Because the Multimedia Contact Center application is real-time response product, agents must remove or disable any power-saving settings that can affect the response time of the agent to the caller.

3When a Multimedia Contact Center agent becomes available, the caller's phone rings.

4The caller answers the call.

5The Contact Center routes the phone (PSTN voice) portion of the call to the Multimedia Contact Center agent.

The agent’s set rings and displays “www:ss” (where ss = skillset number) to signify that the call is a multimedia call.

6The agent answers the call on their set and the agent’s and the caller's audio path are connected, and the agent and caller's web pages are synchronized.

The Multimedia Contact Center agent interface is launched in a new browser window on the agent’s PC.

7The agent sends appropriate web pages to the caller. The agent can have a text chat session with the caller.

Note: All agents must close unused browser windows at the end of a browser session for either a phone and browser call or a browser-only call to ensure that the next call opens in a new and full-sized browser window.

Multimedia Contact Center Setup and Operation Guide

20 Chapter 2 Multimedia Contact Center overview

Browser-only calls

For this type of call, the caller needs an Internet connection. A browser-only call (data only call) can include text chat and web pages that the agent sends to the caller.

How a browser-only call works

1 The caller clicks the Multimedia Contact Center icon on a web page.

The call setup page appears.

Note: If cookies are enabled, preferences from the caller’s previous call (if any) appear in the page.

2The caller completes the set up procedure. The caller

eClicks the link Click here to connect to an agent using Multimedia Contact Center.

A request for an agent is sent over the IP network to the Contact Center.

The Multimedia Contact Center caller interface is launched in a new browser window on the caller’s PC.

Note: While the caller is waiting, web-refreshed HTML pages appear in their browser. These pages correspond to the announcement callers hear on a PSTN voice call. A new web page can be sent by an agent for every Contact Center announcement, along with information such as the number of agents in the skillset and the number of calls in the skillset. For a full list of CGI parameters, see the

Multimedia Contact Center Web Developer Guide.

Note: Because the Multimedia Contact Center application is real-time response product, agents must remove or disable any power-saving settings that can affect the response time of the agent to the caller.

NN40170-602

3When a Multimedia Contact Center agent is available, the Multimedia Contact Center agent interface is launched in a new browser window on the agent’s PC (see “Multimedia Contact Center agent interface” on page 17).

The agent and caller web pages are synchronized.

4The agent pushes appropriate web pages to the caller. The agent can have a text chat session with the caller.

Note: If you add a restriction to the Voicemail DN, you also restrict all outcalling calls, including external transfers from CCR Trees, Off-premise Message Notification, and Outbound Transfers.

Setting up Multimedia Contact Center

Setting up Multimedia Contact Center involves:

Creating a user account for Multimedia Contact Center

Enabling Multimedia Contact Center

Setting Multimedia Contact Center parameters

Assigning routing to Multimedia Contact Center calls

Routing tables

Routing Multimedia Contact Center calls using the CLID/DNIS Routing table

Assigning a callback route for Multimedia Contact Center

Configuring outdialing using PRI lines

Assigning an outgoing line to a line pool

Creating a Multimedia Contact Center dial plan

Example of a dial plan that restricts calls based on their country

Setting the maximum number of outcalling channels

Configuring the Dialing Translation Table

Creating a user account for Multimedia Contact Center

In Business Element Manager you can create user accounts that allow several people to have access to Multimedia Contact Center settings. A user account allows users to access their own information, but not anyone else’s.

For example, if you have a web developer who creates custom web pages for your business, you can create a user account for them. This gives them their own user ID and password that gives them access to certain tasks; for example, downloading and uploading web pages, and viewing web page lists. Another example: ABC Computers has weekly specials and wants to update their information weekly. You can create a user account for ABC Computers that lets anyone who has the user ID update their web pages.

You require a keycode to enable software features on the Business Communications Manager (BCM) system. The keycode is a 24-digit code that authenticates the feature or bundle of features you purchased for your BCM. To enable Multimedia Contact Center, the keycode must include this feature.

To obtain a keycode you require the following:

feature authorization code for the BCM

system ID

The authorization code is a six-digit code you receive for each of the features you purchase. The authorization code is on the label affixed to the keycode information sheet. You enable

Multimedia Contact Center by enabling the Multimedia Contact Center authorization code on the BCM Business Element Manager.

For more information on the keycode and authorization codes, as well as steps for installing a keycode and authorization codes, see the Keycode Installation Guide.

Setting Multimedia Contact Center parameters

You must define the public host name parameter. Multimedia Contact Center parameters are set using CallPilot Manager.

Note: If your BCM is behind a firewall or proxy server, you must set the firewall or proxy server TCP ports 443 and 4200 to forward inbound traffic to the BCM.

For more information on how to set inbound filters, see the documentation for your firewall or proxy server. If you have a BCM firewall, see the Nortel BCM Administration and Security Guide.
