Standalone Configuration

In the standalone configuration, any DSS/BLFs that need to appear in the
Desktop Applications must be programmed on a physical button on the
terminal or a DSS console attached to the terminal. If a Soft Phone extension
is used, the DSS/BLF must be programmed on a button on the Soft Phone
extension or DSS console assigned to the Soft Phone extension. In addition,
each Desktop Application user must maintain their own directory. The
standalone configuration is limited to 120 DSS/BLFs.
In the standalone configuration, each PC with the Desktop Applications has its
own 1st-Party CTI connection to the SV8100. The Desktop Applications
communicates to the SV8100 via the LAN on the TCP port defined for the
1st-Party CTI connection in Program 10-20-01. The 1st-Party CTI connection
is device 9 in 10-20-01 and the recommended port is 8282.

Standalone with 3rd-Party Shared Services

In the standalone with 3rd-Party Shared Services configuration, the desktop
application can view DSS/BLF information for all stations and trunks in the
system. The DSS/BLF status is provided to the Desktop Application from the
3rd-Party Shared Services. All call control is still done via the 1st-Party
connection. The 3rd-Party Shared Services is also required for Phone
Message, Quick Message, and a Shared Central Directory. Users do not have
to maintain their own directory with 3rd-Party Shared Services. The Shared
Central Directory is viewed by all users, and any changes made by one user
will be seen by the other users.
In the standalone with 3rd-Party Shared Services configuration, each PC with
the Desktop Applications still has its own 1st-Party CTI connection to the
SV8100 as described in the Standalone section. In addition, there is a PC with
the 3rd-Party Shared Services installed. This can be on a machine that also
has the Desktop Application or a dedicated machine. There is a drawback to
having the 3rd-Party Shared Services on a users PC that is using the Desktop
Application. If that user shuts down their machine, all other Desktop
Applications that are using 3rd-Party Shared Services will lose the 3rd-Party
connection. When this happens, the other users will receive an error. The
Desktop will still work for call control, but the Shared Central Directory, Phone
Message, and Quick Message features will not be accessible.
The PC with 3rd-Party Shared Services communicates to the SV8100 via the
LAN on the TCP port defined for the 3rd-Party CTI connection in Program 10-
20-01. The 3rd-Party CTI connection is device 1 in 10-20-01 and the
