How Avaya Site Administration works
In Avaya Site Administration, any switch or INTUITY AUDIX administration activity is called a task.
When using Avaya Site Administration to perform a switch or INTUITY AUDIX administration task,
enter the task into Avaya Site Administration and then tell Avaya Site Administration when to run the
task. For example, to add a phone to the system for a new employee, create a task in Avaya Site
Administration that adds the phone (and, optionally, the associated voice-mail account), and then tell
Avaya Site Administration to add the new phone immediately or at a later time.
When the task runs, Avaya Site Administration connects to the appropriate switch or INTUITY AUDIX,
runs the task, and displays feedback about the task in the schedule tab. Depending on the instructions
from the user, Avaya Site Administration will either disconnect from the switch or make the connection
idle when it is finished running the task.
