Chapter 9: Administering Applications and Options

Customizing Applications and Options

This chapter covers configuration options for activating/deactivating options and applications.
The 9600 Series IP Deskphones offer the user numerous applications like Contacts, a call
History log, Redial, and so on. Each of these applications allows the user to add, delete, or in
some cases, edit entries. As the administrator, you might not want the user to have that level of
functionality.
This chapter also contains information related to administering the Avaya Menu or Home
Screen to include the WML browser, and other browser setup information.
In 4600 and 9600 Series H.323 IP Telephones, the parameters APPSTAT (meaning Application
permission status) and OPSTAT (meaning Options permission status) control application
access and functionality. However, SIP deskphones have a more granular way of assigning
functionality, with a specific parameter for each permission, as follows:
ENABLE_CALL_LOG - Allows end user access to the list of unanswered and answered
●
calls. If disabled, the History application is not displayed to the user and calls are not
logged.
ENABLE_REDIAL - Allows the end user to redial one to three previously called numbers. If
●
disabled, redialing is not available to the end user.
ENABLE_REDIAL_LIST - Allows the end user to select a number to redial from a list. If
●
disabled, only the previously-dialed number can be redialed.
ENABLE_CONTACTS - Allows end user access to a list of numbers and to make calls by
●
selecting a Contact Name/Number. If disabled, the Contacts application is not displayed to
the user and a Contact list cannot be set up or maintained.
ENABLE_MODIFY_CONTACTS - If the Contacts application is enabled
●
(ENABLE_CONTACTS=1), this option allows or prevents the end user from changing or
updating the Contact list.
PROVIDE_EDITED_DIALING - Allows the deskphone to mirror cellular phone dialing by
●
capturing, but not sending dialed digits to the dial plan manager until the user presses the
Call Softkey.
PROVIDE_OPTIONS_SCREEN - If disabled, the Options & Settings menu is not
●
displayed on the Avaya menu or Home Screen. The user cannot change any of the
features and options associated with the Options & Settings menu.
PROVIDE_NETWORKINFO_SCREEN - If disabled, the Network Information menu is not
●
displayed on the Avaya menu or Home Screen.
PROVIDE_LOGOUT - If disabled, Logout is not displayed to the user as an option on the
●
Avaya menu or Home Screen.
These parameters have On (1=enabled)/Off (0=disabled) settings, and are described in detail in
.
