1.1 Overview
The functionality of CA Server
CA Server is an application that is installed on a computer on your PBX's network. When CA Client users log
in to the CA Server (instead of directly to the PBX), the following functions become available:
•
The maximum number of simultaneous CA Client users is increased. For more information on the number
of simultaneous CA Client users, see "Login Capabilities" in the CA Client Quick Reference Guide.
A CA Client user's available contacts can be restricted based on their presence settings. For example,
when the "Out of Office" presence is used, only a cellular phone will be available to be called by other CA
Client users.
•
For more information on this feature, see "Restricting Contacts by Presence" in the CA Client Quick
Reference Guide.
•
•
Missed calls made to logged off CA Client users are recorded by CA Server. The missed call information
is sent to the CA Client user’s call history when they next log in to CA Server.
Settings for CA Client users (e.g. extension user information, dial modification settings, etc.) can be edited
by an administrator using CA Web Manager, a Web client program for CA Server. Settings are updated
for each CA Client user when they log in to CA Server.

For more information about CA Client features, see the CA Client Quick Reference Guide.
Network Features
When CA Server is also installed on another PBX's network, CA Client users can view the presence of CA
Client users of that network. After viewing the presence of a CA Client user on another network, it is possible
to make calls, transfer calls, and initiate chat with that user. A network activation key and CA Pro activation
key are required to use these network features.
