Introduction to Norstar TAPI Service

Provider 4.3

The Norstar Desktop Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) range of products

provides an interface between your personal computer (PC) and your Norstar

telephone system. With these products, you can use telephony applications on your

Windows®PC to control your Norstar telephone.

To use Norstar Desktop CTI, you require a hardware component and a software

component.

The hardware component of Norstar Desktop CTI is the Computer Telephony

Adapter (CTA). The CTA provides the physical connection between your PC and

your Norstar telephone system. Instructions on how to install your CTA device are

in the CTA Installation Guide.

The software component of Norstar Desktop CTI is Norstar TAPI Service Provider

(Norstar TSP). Norstar TSP works with Microsoft®TAPI and Windows®NT to

allow your telephony application to communicate with the CTA and control your

Norstar telephone.

In server configuration, Norstar TSP shares a single CTA with network users. This

allows users on your network to run telephony applications to control their Norstar

telephones.

How does Norstar TSP work?

Norstar TSP works with three other software components, each providing a

different function. The four software components are:

• Telephony application

Telephony applications are installed on client PCs. Norstar TSP users run

telephony applications to control their Norstar telephone. With this application,

Norstar TSP users give commands (such as answer telephone) to the Norstar

telephone system. The telephony application also displays messages (such as

telephone ringing) received from the Norstar telephone system. An example of

a telephony application is Norstar Personal Call Manager.

• Windows operating system

Windows is installed on the Server and the client PCs. Windows passes

commands from the telephony application to TAPI and messages from TAPI to

the telephony application.

Microsoft and Windows are registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation.

6How does Norstar TSP work?

Norstar TSP Server Configuration Guide P0605043 Issue 01

• Microsoft Telephony Application Programming Interface (TAPI)

TAPI is installed on the Server and the client PCs. TAPI converts industry

standard commands received from Windows into a format that Norstar TSP can

understand. It also converts messages from the Norstar TSP into an industry

standard format and gives them to Windows.

• Norstar TSP

Norstar TSP is installed on the Server as a Windows NT service. Norstar TSP

receives commands from TAPI and converts them into a format that is

understood by the Norstar telephone system. It also receives messages from the

Norstar telephone system and converts them into a format that is understood by

TAPI. Messages are sent to and received from the Norstar telephone system

using the CTA.

P0605043 Issue 01 Norstar TSP Server Configuration Guide

Selecting a Windows NT Server / Windows 2000 Server PC

A TAPI server can be configured on any Windows NT 4.0 server that has been

upgraded to Service Pack 4 or greater or on a Windows 2000 Server.

There are four types of Windows NT Servers:

• Primary Domain Controller (PDC)

• Backup Domain Controller (BDC)

• member server (a server which is a member of a domain but not a PDC or a

BDC)

We recommend that you use a member server in a Windows NT domain as the

TAPI server.

We also recommend that you do not use Primary Domain Controllers and Backup

Domain Controllers as the TAPI Server.

TAPI Server will run on a PDC. If you want to use a PDC, carefully review the

issues below. Consider how the following issues will affect your network before

installing TAPI Server. For additional information about installing TAPI Server on

a domain controller, refer toAppendix A – Using a Primary Domain Controller as a

TAPI Server on page 51.

Issues with installing TAPI Server on a domain controller

• You must reboot the Windows 2000 Server / Windows 2000 Advanced Server

after:

• adding users

• deleting users

• changing the TAPI admin account password

• changing the configuration of the Norstar Key Service Unit (KSU)

• You must reboot the Windows NT Server after:

• installing Microsoft’s TAPI server

• adding users

• deleting users

• changing the TAPI admin account password

• changing the configuration of the Norstar Key Service Unit (KSU)

• You must have administrator privileges for the domain to install Microsoft

TAPI server on a domain controller. Administrator privileges for a member

server aresufficientto installMicrosoft TAPI server ona member serverwithin

a domain. Therefore, installing Microsoft TAPI server on a member server

within a Windows domain is more secure and scaleable.

• Performance on the Domain Controller can be affected by the additional

demands of a TAPI server which provides D-Channel signaling for all users.

10 Setting up the Server as a member server in a domain

Norstar TSP Server Configuration Guide P0605043 Issue 01

Setting up the Server as a member server in a domain

To setup the Server as a member server:

1. If your Server is a standalone server, ask your network administrator to add

your standalone server to the domain. This changes your standalone server

into a member server.

2. Ask your network administrator to add a TAPI_ADMIN domain-account to

the domain. This TAPI_ADMIN domain-account is a user account used to

start and administer telephony services (TCMSETUP) on the member server.

Note: Any domain user account can be added to the member server’s local

administrator group and used to start the TCMSETUP application.

However, it is recommended that the account be unique to Norstar

TSP administration.

3. Ask your Network Administrator to ensure all of the TAPI users are in the

same domain as the TAPI domain-account.

Assigning the TAPI_ADMIN user account administration privileges

Use TAPI_ADMIN user account for all TAPI administration tasks. To assign the

user account administration privileges for this account:

1. Access the User Manager on your local PC.

2. Click the User menu and then click Select Domain.

3. Enter the name of the TAPI server and click the OK button.

4. Double click Administrators at the bottom of the screen.

The Local Group Properties dialog box appears.

5. Click the Add button.

The Add Users and Groups dialog box appears.
