alternate devices

With the latest implementation, if a user logs in with an Avaya Multimedia Messaging (AMM)
client such as Avaya Communicator for Windows as well as Avaya one-X Communicator and
begins a conversation with another user, Messages sent from the user's AMM client will be
visible on Avaya one-X Communicator. If the AMM client leaves the conversation, Avaya one-

controls. This behavior is consistent with AMM. If the user needs to resume the conversation
with the far-end, open a new IM window.

DTMF Entry Enhancements

following new ways:

The Client reduces unnecessary ad hoc queries to the presence server. This feature is disabled
by default & administrator need to refer to the user document about guidelines that need to be
followed when enabling this feature.This will be done through the following algorithm:
Avaya Collaboration Services Presence Queries for existing favorites will be retrieved
from the current buddy list No Adhoc Presence Query to be sent.
If the Presence Query is for a non-favorite, then the presentity should be queried from
the periodic polling list. (The data may already exist locally).

7

and send IM to Federated Favorites in any email if contact is in the to, from or cc fields. You

modes (This Computer/Desk Phone/Other Phone) from the Avaya one-X Communicator Login

Client & compose a message to the appropriate SMS/FAX recipient.

click menu in the list when more than one item in the list is selected. This is provided for both
call log and contact lists.

SIP Presence enhancement for users (Contacts, Buddy Management) not in your enterprise

8

search. Resolution shall be performed in the following preference order i.e. Local Contacts-(My
Contacts (PPM-SIP, Local-H323)), Outlook, LDAP, and Network. This feature has no interaction
with CES Name Look-ups, or CES Call Logs.

name-lookups that Avaya one-X Communicator supports, in particular LDAP and CES with some
architectural changes in signaling which are intended to reduce load on the Avaya Presence

9

IM details. It will automatically disappear if the user does not click on it after few seconds or if
the user clicks on the X button to dismiss toast. If Do Not Disturb is set, the Notification pop up
is not shown.

CM.

incoming call to any member of the pick-up group similar to one that is displayed on an
incoming call. This pop up contains the Name/Number of caller and person who was called
initially. The user is able to take the call by simply clicking on the Accept button.

Ad-Hoc presence requests must not be sent by default for non-buddy contacts in Outlook

Due to solution limitations with presence server and Avaya one-X Communicator, Avaya one-
X Communicator does not by default send ad-hoc presence requests for non-buddies
appearing in Outlook email. This is configured through the Centralized Admin Tool through
Admin Parameter Enable Outlook Presence for Non-Favorite Contacts with three options Not
set, False & True

Not set -> Avaya one-X Communicator will drop all the requests from CCE for non-buddy
contacts and returns Unknown presence back to CCE.
False -> Avaya one-X Communicator will drop all the requests from CCE for non-buddy contacts
and returns Unknown presence back to CCE.

Avaya one-X Communicator Login / PPM download with Avaya Aura Session Manager 6.2 FP4:

With SM 6.2 FP4 new installations, the "demo" certificates will no longer be installed by default. This
does not affect SM upgrades, as all existing certificates are preserved through the upgrade process.

should be done to ensure all far end devices are similarly equipped with System Manger signed
certificates. Otherwise, existing TLS connections will no longer function.

For connecting Avaya one-X Communicator 6.2 FP6 with Session Manager 6.2 FP4 new install, please
ensure that either SMGR MGMT certificate is installed and trusted by Avaya one-X Communicator
users (client) machine or the demo certificate is installed on SM.

following ways:

# initTM d
OR
# initTM demo
