Cisco Unity - Auto Attendant modification

awahabmirza
Level 1
Level 1

We have a Cisco Unity Express and currently the system has an auto-attendant functioning fine. We would like to modify the Unity Auto-Attendant administration greetings, however we are not sure how to do to. What number do we dial in from the phones to modify this greetings, and how do we know what that number is.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Abdul,

You'll want to look at the CUE AVT

The Administration via Telephone (AvT) application is a telephony-based interface that allows Cisco Unity Express that offers the following capabilities:

Administrators can record new audio prompts or delete existing custom audio prompts without using a PC or sound-editing software, such as with the telephone user interface (TUI). These prompts can then be used in various Cisco Unity Express application scripts, such as the Welcome prompt in the default auto-attendant. The Emergency Alternate Greeting (EAG) is an option within the AvT that allows subscribers to record, modify, and enable or disable a special greeting to be played before the regular greeting, notifying callers of some temporary event or message.

Administrators can rerecord existing prompts.

Administrators can send broadcast messages. Subscribers who have the broadcast privilege can access a limited set of AvT capabilities.

Administrators can record spoken names for remote locations and remote subscribers.

The Cisco Unity Express module installation automatically configures the AvT application.

Only users with administrative (superuser) privileges or prompt management (ManagePrompt) privileges have access to the AvT. (See "Adding and Modifying a Group" on page 147 for information about assigning privileges.) When a caller dials the AvT number, the AvT authenticates the caller by requesting the caller's extension and PIN. The AvT disconnects the caller if the caller does not have administrative authority.

I am still having problems. I created the groups as you recommended. I am still not able to modify the greetings.I am not able to get to the Auto Attendant greetings, i.e, when I dial in AA extension, i.e, (2197) and then I can get to a prompt which allows me to manage, If i go into "2199" which is the voicemail extension and it asks me to enter the mailbox , and if i enter AA extension which is 2197, it says, not a valid extension. here are my configs.

Hi Abdul,

You are missing the prompt management trigger and application. These are

necessary to use AvT;

SUMMARY STEPS

1. config t

2. ccn trigger sip phonenumber number

3. application application-name

4. enabled

5. maxsessions number

6. locale xx_YY

7. end

8. exit

9. show ccn trigger

10. copy running-config startup-config

DETAILED STEPS


Command or Action
Purpose

Step 1 

config t

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config)# config t

Enters configuration mode.

Step 2 

ccn trigger sip phonenumber number

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config)# ccn trigger sip phonenumber  50150

se-10-0-0-0(config)# ccn trigger sip phonenumber  50160

Specifies the telephone number that acts as the trigger to start the application on the Cisco Unity Express module and enters trigger configuration mode.

number—The value should match one of the patterns configured in the destination-pattern field of the SIP dial peer pointing to Cisco Unity Express.

Step 3 

application application-name

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# application voicemail

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# application autoattendant

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# application promptmgmt

Specifies the name of the application to invoke when a call is made to the trigger phone number.

Step 4 

enabled

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# enabled

Enables the trigger.

Step 5 

maxsessions number

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# maxsessions 3

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# maxsessions 6

Specifies the maximum number of callers that this application can handle simultaneously. See the "Sharing Ports Among Applications and Triggers" section for guidelines on assigning this value.

Step 6 

locale xx_YY

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)#  locale en_US

(Optional) Specifies the trigger language. Any prompts being played out by an application invoked by this trigger will be played out in this language.

Use this configuration only if you have more than one language installed on the system. The default for this configuration is to use the system default language as the trigger language.

Step 7 

end

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config-trigger)# end

Exits trigger configuration mode.

Step 8 

exit

Example:

se-10-0-0-0(config)# exit

Exits configuration mode.

Step 9 

show ccn trigger

Example:

se-10-0-0-0# show ccn trigger

Displays the details of all configured triggers.

Step 10 

copy running-config startup-config

Example:

se-10-0-0-0# copy running-config startup-config

Copies the configuration changes to the startup configuration.
