500-052 Exam Dumps : Deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCXD)

According to the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Design Guide, Release 8.0(1), the maximum number of CTI ports that can be supported by a Cisco Unified Contact Center Express 8.0 Standard deployment is 300. This is the same as the maximum number of IVR ports that can be supported by the Standard deployment. The CTI ports are used to route calls to agents or to play prompts and collect caller input. The number of CTI ports depends on the number of concurrent calls that the system needs to handle and the call flow design. The Standard deployment supports up to 150 agents and 300 IVR ports or CTI ports. References := Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Design Guide, Release 8.0(1), page 2-7.

To deploy a Cisco Unified CCX application, the following tasks are required:

• Create a trigger: A trigger is a phone number or a URI that is associated with an application and invokes a script when it is dialed or requested. A trigger defines the type of communication (voice or HTTP), the maximum number of sessions, and the script to be executed. To create a trigger, use the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigate to Applications > Trigger Management. For more information on how to create a trigger, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration and Operations Guide, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Trigger Management.
• Upload script to repository: A script is a set of instructions that defines the call flow and logic of an application. A script is created using the Cisco Unified CCX Editor, which is a graphical tool that allows users to drag and drop steps, variables, and expressions. To upload a script to the repository, use the Cisco Unified CCX Editor and select File > Save Script As. For more information on how to upload a script, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Editor Step Reference, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Saving and Uploading Scripts, Section: Saving and Uploading Scripts.
• Specify the maximum number of sessions: The maximum number of sessions defines how many concurrent calls or requests an application can handle. The maximum number of sessions is configured at the trigger level and depends on the license type and the available system resources. To specify the maximum number of sessions, use the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigate to Applications > Trigger Management. For more information on how to specify the maximum number of sessions, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration and Operations Guide, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Application Configuration, Section: Trigger Management.

The following tasks are not required to deploy a Cisco Unified CCX application:

• Restart the Cisco Unified CCX Engine: The Cisco Unified CCX Engine is a service that runs on the Unified CCX server and executes the scripts associated with the applications. The Cisco Unified CCX Engine does not need to be restarted after deploying an application, unless there is a change in the system configuration or a problem with the service. To restart the Cisco Unified CCX Engine, use the Cisco Unified CCX Serviceability web interface and navigate to Tools > Control Center - Network Services. For more information on how to restart the Cisco Unified CCX Engine, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Serviceability Administration Guide, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX Serviceability, Section: Control Center - Network Services.
• Configure default session timeout: The default session timeout defines how long an idle session can remain active before it is terminated by the system. The default session timeout is configured at the system level and applies to all applications. The default session timeout does not need to be configured for each application, unless there is a specific requirement to override the system value. To configure the default session timeout, use the Cisco Unified CCX Administration web interface and navigate to System > System Parameters. For more information on how to configure the default session timeout, see the Cisco Unified Contact Center Express Administration and Operations Guide, Release 12.5 (1), Chapter: Unified CCX System Configuration, Section: System Parameters. References:

The Cisco Unified Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT) is a software application that allows you to monitor and troubleshoot Cisco Unified CCX system components in real-time. The RTMT enables you to do the following tasks:

• Plot and view performance data. You can use RTMT to collect and display performance counters that measure the current system status and performance. You can view the data in graphical or tabular format, and set thresholds and alerts for the counters12
• Download log files from Cisco Unified CCX nodes. You can use RTMT to collect and view the trace and log files that are generated by the Cisco Unified CCX components. You can also configure the trace and log settings, such as the file size and rollover conditions12
• Check the number of active calls in the Cisco Unified CCX system. You can use RTMT to monitor the current call statistics, such as the number of active calls, the number of queued calls, the number of handled calls, and the average talk time. You can also view the call distribution and the agent state summary12

The RTMT does not enable you to do the following tasks:

• Monitor the replication status of historical data store. The historical data store (HDS) is a database that stores the historical reports and statistics for Cisco Unified CCX. The replication status of the HDS can be monitored by using the Data Monitor tool in the Cisco Unified CCX Serviceability web interface3
• Monitor the Cisco Unified CCX CTI port status and take corrective action. The CTI ports are the logical connections that allow Cisco Unified CCX to communicate with the Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) and control the incoming and outgoing calls. The CTI port status can be monitored by using the Cisco Unified CCX Control Center tool in the Cisco Unified CCX Serviceability web interface4
• Monitor the WAN link status. The WAN link status is the network connectivity between the Cisco Unified CCX nodes and other network devices. The WAN link status can be monitored by using the Cisco Unified Serviceability web interface or the Cisco Unified OS Administration web interface5
