Integration with IP-DECT Manager
You can connect DECT Messenger to an IP-DECT system. The communication between
DECT Messenger and the IP-DECT system is only for LRMS to or from the DECT handsets.
DECT Messenger uses the CTI port on the IP-DECT system to send and receive LRMS
messages. This port does not support CSTA.
The connection consists of a TCP/IP connection between the DECT Messenger and the IP-
DECT system. However, the IP-DECT system is normally placed in a separate VLAN that is
used only for VoIP. Therefore, in general, the connection between DECT Messenger and the
IP-DECT system is established using a VLAN router.
Before installing DECT Messenger, you must verify that the VLAN router allows traffic from the
DECT Messenger to the IP-DECT system. The IP-DECT system can be connected to CS
1000.
The following subsections give a description of the connections.
Integration with Call Server 1000
The following figure shows an IP-DECT system configured with CS 1000 and DECT
Messenger. As shown here, DECT Messenger can be connected directly to the VLAN which
is used for VoIP, or it can be connected to that VLAN via a VLAN router. Connection via a VLAN
Router requires that the VLAN Router allows traffic between the DECT Messenger PC and the
DAP Controller PC (IP-DECT system). DECT Messenger uses a TCP/IP port on the DAP
Controller.
