Introduction
Data Protection and Data Security

Introduction

The HiPath Manager PCM (Personal Call Manager) is a browser-based application for configuring and administering call forwarding features. Personal settings can be accessed either with
the help of a local network PC system or by remote access via the intranet/Internet.
The PCM call handling functionality should not be confused with conventional call forwarding
or conventional call destination lists. PCM features a user-specific, standalone forwarding function based on its very own connection strategy. PCM is used to improve and speed up personal
availability during office hours, working hours and periods of absence.
Administrative PCM parameters and PCM users are configured by means of the HiPath Manager PCM Administration program (see Section , "HiPath Manager PCM Administration").

>
1.1

HiPath Manager PCM Web is optimized for use in conjunction with Internet Explorer
(V4.01 SP2 or higher). Deviations in terms of display and functionality may occur in
other script-based browsers on account of browser-specific behavior. We therefore
only recommend the use of Internet Explorer.

Data Protection and Data Security

Handling personal data


This system processes and uses personal data, amongst other things, e.g. in displays and
when entering customer data.
In Germany, the processing and use of such personal data are subject to various regulations
of the Federal Data Protection Law (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz = BDSG). For other countries,
please follow the appropriate national laws.
The aim of data protection is to ensure that the rights of individuals are not infringed upon
through the use of their personal data. By protecting data against misuse during all stages of
processing, privacy legislation also protects the material interests of the individual and of third
parties.

Guidelines for Siemens employees


Employees of Siemens AG are required to observe business and data secrecy laid down in the
statement of conditions of employment.
In order to ensure that the statutory requirements during service (whether on-site or remote)
are consistently met, you should always observe the following rules. This safeguards the interests of the customer and offers added personal protection.
Guidelines for handling personal data
You can contribute to ensuring data protection and data security by appreciating the
problem and acting in a responsible manner:

Ensure that only authorized persons have access to customer data.

Take full advantage of password allocation options; do not inform unauthorized persons of
passwords, e.g. by means of a written note.

Ensure that no unauthorized person is able to process (store, modify, transmit, disable, delete) or use customer data in any way.

Do not allow unauthorized persons to gain access to data media, e.g. on backup disks or
protocol printouts. This applies both to service calls and to storage and transport.

Ensure that data media which are no longer needed are completely destroyed. Ensure that
none of the papers are left behind for general access.

Cooperate with your contacts in the customers company: this creates mutual trust
and reduces your workload.

Correct Mulap Configuration for Use via the PCM

Before a Mulap group (BasicMulap) in the PCM can be used as a PCM-supervised terminal or
as a forwarding destination, this (these) Mulap group(s) must be set up as follows:

One virtual station must be set up for each Mulap group and assigned to the Mulap group.

The virtual station is only given the member parameter "acoustic signal"; all other stations
are configured as "Master" with "acoustic signal". All the other parameters of the "actually"
existing members are optional.

The virtual station does not need to be included in the TAPI line configuration, but all Mulap
call numbers and all individual station numbers must be included.

The PCM user should be assigned not just any station in the group, but the Mulap call number itself.

When calls are forwarded to Mulaps, the Mulap call number should be entered in the PCM
accordingly as the forwarding destination.

Setting up the Internet Information Server (IIS) for LDAP


Telephone Directory Access

Where an LDAP server for directory enquiries is provided in a network (domain), Windows NT/
Windows 2000 security mechanisms will normally have been set up for controlling access. As
a rule, registered and logged-on system users have the right of access to this server.
This is not the case when access is via a Web application running on the Web Server instead
of the client PC environment (browser). In this case the IUSR_[server name], which is automatically set up locally on the Web Server, identifies every user and every access as a standard
user with standard rights. However, this user is not known to the network (domain) or the LDAP
server. Queries to the LDAP server are therefore rejected on the grounds of insufficient rights.
There are two ways of achieving this anonymous access:

This chapter describes how you can optimize the Windows 2000 Server operating system for
the operation of HiPath Manager PCM.
Component

Description

Optimizing the physical


memory

Windows 2000 Server is normally optimized to maximum


throughput as a file server. For a HiPath 5000 server, however,
significantly less memory is needed for the system-wide disk
cache.
To optimize the memory go to Settings Network and Dial-up
Connections Local Area Network Properties File and
Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks Properties and select the option Balance.

Optimizing the virtual


memory

To do this, go to Settings Control Panel System Advanced


Performance Options Virtual memory Change and set
the Total paging file size for all drives to 512 MB.
The same values should be entered for the virtual memorys upper and lower thresholds so that the paging file does not have to
be extended during operation.

Optimizing availability

If Windows 2000 crashes (blue screen), it creates a file containing


debugging information from the paging file the next time the system starts. If the size of this file is the same size as the systems
physical memory, almost all of the virtual memory will be used for
generating this file during system startup.
This may cause certain services on the HiPath 5000 server to experience problems in starting up. To recover this problem, you
should go to Control Panel System Advanced Startup
and Recovery and select the option (none) under Write Debugging Information.
All other options are viable. The Auto restart option forces an automatic restart if Windows 2000 crashes, thus considerably increasing the servers availability.

SMTP service

The SMTP service in Windows 2000 should always be disabled


as HiPath 5000 provides its own SMTP link which may conflict
with the Windows 2000 service. To do this, go to Start Settings
Control Panel Add/Remove Programs Add/Remove
Windows Components Internet Information Service Details remove the SMTP service.

Introduction

HiPath Manager PCM Administration

3.1

Introduction

HiPath Manager PCM Administration is a program for updating the administrative parameters
for the applications. These parameters are saved in the central database created for the application and, where applicable, read and evaluated by the PCM. HiPath Manager PCM Administration belongs to the HiPath Manager PCM program package.
The display of HiPath Manager PCM Administration conforms to the Windows 2000 management console. For information on the general functions and basic operation of the management
console, please refer to the Windows 2000 documentation or online help. This manual therefore
only provides a brief description of the general user interface.

3.1.1

Functional Overview

HiPath Manager PCM Administration manages parameters for the following functional areas:
User Administration

for HiPath Manager PCM Administration itself

for the HiPath Manager PCM

General Settings

for importing and administering node information (configured PBXs in the network)

for importing and administering extension information for the configured nodes

Personal Call Management

for administering the general parameters for PCM

for administering the parameters for PCM users

for administering the call number detection parameters for external calls

Introduction

3.1.2

For internal use only

Prerequisites for Use

HiPath Manager PCM Administration must be installed on the server PC with an appropriate
database before it can be used. HiPath Manager PCM Administration is also started there for
parameter processing.

3.1.3

Dependencies/Limitations Vis--Vis Other TAPI Applications

If several TAPI applications are monitoring TAPI lines through the third-party TSP, there may be
conflict between two or more applications using a line (station) concurrently. For instance, if
PCM and the HPCO call center system are using the same line, one application could take the
call away from the other, thereby perhaps causing processing and statistic errors. For this reason, we strongly recommend separating the call number ranges or assigning only one TAPI application to the individual stations.
Limitations in certain constellations
The following constellations have the limitations described:

PCM users with an assigned station number (Mulap), an IP phone, Anates, optiClient 130s,
optiSet entry cannot activate or deactivate the PCM via a telephone key, because these
telephones do not have keys that can be monitored.

If changes are made to the PCM user-specific parameters through the HiPath Manager
PCM Administration program, these changes will be automatically taken over when PCM
call handling is started. It is not necessary to restart the user-specific call handling actions.
Services are not restarted, however, following changes to general PCM parameters, such
as properties of PCM, discriminating call numbers or identification of external calls. Please
remember to restart a service after making changes to it.

Nodes

HiPath Manager PCM considers the Hicom PBXs configured in the TCP/IP network as nodes.
Nodes cannot be created or deleted in HiPath Manager PCM Administration. Node data is
transferred to the Feature Server by means of data import via the network, displayed in Administration and made available for further processing. Normally there is only one node available
in HiPath Manager PCM (Standalone).
3.5.1.1

Importing the Configured Node Data

To import the configured node data, proceed as follows:


1.

Open the HiPath Manager PCM Administration - General Settings branch in tree view.

2.

Mark the entry Nodes.

3.

Open the context menu and select All Tasks - Load Node Information.
The node data is imported. During an import operation, new node data is incorporated and
information on existing nodes is updated. Information available in Administration and not
on the node, such as a description of the node, is not overwritten during an import job.
If errors occur when importing node data, these are reported and logged in the Event Viewer under Device Manager in Windows 2000 (see Section 3.3, "Error and Event Reporting
Procedures").
The nodes available after the import are listed in detail view.

3.5.1.2

Editing Node Entries

Various parameters are still needed after importing the node data. You can update this data
when editing the node call information.
To edit node data, proceed as follows:
1.

Open the HiPath Manager PCM Administration - General Settings branch in tree view.

2.

Mark the entry Nodes.

3.

In detail view, open the context menu for the node to be edited and select Edit....

HiPath Manager PCM Administration


Application-Specific Configuration Changes and System Settings

HiPath Assistant - Automatic Call Acceptance CSTA

To make the callback functionality more convenient, set the flag autom. connection, CSTA under Settings/Set up station .../Station/Param/Flags. If this is set, the loudspeaker automatically activates when you initiate a callback. The calling PCM user can set up the call without
lifting the handset. If you do not set this flag, you will not be able to clear down a callback that
is still waiting at your terminal and has not yet been routed to the destination. In this case, the
error message "Unable to find call" appears.

3.7.3

HiPath Assistant - Mulap Group Configuration

Each Mulap group should be assigned to a separate virtual station under Settings/Incoming
calls.../Groups/Hunt groups if you want a Mulap group to be monitored by an application,
such as HiPath Manager PCM. The real group members (optiset/optiPoint, CMI) are assigned
the member parameters Master, Acoustic call and Automatic seizure outgoing (A). The virtual station is only assigned the member parameter Acoustic call. The Mulap group number
must be configured in the HiPath TAPI 170s TAPI configuration.

3.7.4

Internet Information Server - Internet Services Manager

When using the HiPath Manager PCM telephone directory over an LDAP server, you may encounter access difficulties if the LDAP server present in the domain performs user authentication. Authentication over the HiPath Manager PCM Web pages is normally performed without
the knowledge of other network components, that is, it is performed over an anonymous user
account that was automatically configured specially for IIS and that is not known to other servers in the network. This results in error messages or blank search results following a search in
the LDAP telephone directory. You can circumvent this problem by making the following configuration change:
1.

Start the Internet Services Manager by selecting Start/Settings/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Internet Services Manager.

2.

Double-click the server where IIS is running.

Communication between the various HiPath Manager PCM applications is organized via various buffer tables and messages. You can follow the progress of each entry in the various buffer
tables, each instant message exchange, and each program or communication message from
the components involved, in a separate trace window. In other words, a window is opened for
each component or application involved.
The trace windows can be viewed with the help of the Trace Monitors and transferred to external
storage for further processing.

Data backup procedure


SQL server data backup cannot be performed during live operation with a File Copy or Tape
Backup program because these programs can only be opened via the SQL server. For this reason, the SQL server provides a backup function to save data during online operation.
This backup function is guaranteed by the backup jobs that were created during installation.
The following databases are backed up by the jobs:

Master backup at 1:00


Main system database of the SQL server

MSDB backup at 1:30


Job administration

VenusApp backup at 2:00


Configuration data from PCM

The backup jobs create a backup media for each individual database in the configured folder
(see installation) in three-day cycles. The jobs are executed at the above-mentioned times. On
the fourth day, the first days media is overwritten; on the fifth day, the second days media is
overwritten, etc.

>

When data is completely restored to the database, all changes and call charge data
records created since the backup are lost.
