Comments

Note that the function TPrivateService() is for use only with a select number of T-Servers which require this additional means for exchanging particular information with the switch. Consult T-Server-specific documentation for the applicability of this request.

Depending on the circumstances, T-Server may send EventACK, EventPrivateInfo, or EventError to the client calling the function TPrivateService(). In cases of conventional events (such as EventRinging) being direct results of a private request, T-Server will not send private events in response to a private request.

EventACK will be sent when:

• T-Server cannot link the requested service and the resulting events.
• The service being requested on behalf of the requesting device is to be executed on a different device.

EventPrivateInfo will be sent when:

• The resulting event is a direct consequence of the requested service.
• T-Server, a device, or a call has changed its state, and this change cannot be presented via an existing Genesys protocol, and support for representing this change is required by the business needs of the enterprise.

EventError will be sent when:

• The requested service is not supported.
• The request parameters are not correct.
• The requested service fails while processing on the media device.
