UCoIP

All enterprise communications - Voice, Mail, Instant Messaging and Web - are managed in an integrated way, i.e. unified through a single individual or group address. To reach this goal, IPBrick uses only Internet communications services (SIP, SMTP/IMAP, XMPP and HTTP) integrating with DNS and LDAP support services.

The generic site is ucoip.domain.com but the idea is to have one site for each LDAP user. The following options are included:

A IAX webphone for direct connection to the user SIP url;
A SIP url link to call the user using a softphone previously installed at workstation;
A web-based Jabber (XMPP) client to chat directly with the user;
A SMTP link to mail the user using a email client at workstation;

Like we can see, for SIP/SMTP/XMPP the user will be reached using the single address user@domain.com. The UCoIP site design is simply but it can be improved. It's possible to use a specific FTP account for site management:

username: ucoip;
password: 123456.

Now we present all the necessary steps to configure a UCoIP site for a specific LDAP user with username jsmith, with IPBrick FQDN being ipbrick.domain.com:

The user jsmith must go to https://myipbrick.domain.com and define a phone (depending of the IPBrick.GT routes can be a SIP/PSTN/GSM number) at field SIP Address. Examples: 101@domain.com, 00351221121112, 00351963322212;
Activate the IM service at IPBrick.C - IM;
Go to IPBrick.C - Web Server, click at ucoip.domain.com and define the alternative address jsmith.domain.com;
At private/public DNS server add a record named jsmith, pointing to that IPBrick server;

The source code of this page is presented next:

    <script language="JavaScript">
    function webphone() {
    var day = new Date();
    var id = day.getTime();
    var url = 'index2.php';
    eval("page" + id + " = window.open('" + url +"' , '" + id + "',
    'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,
    resizable=0,width=285,height=430');");
   }
   </script>
   <h1>Example Link</h1>

   <a href="javascript:webphone()"><img alt="IPBrick.GT high
   versability working for the New Internet" src="webphone.jpg"></a>

Examples of url variable definition:

    var url = 'index2.php?user=jdomingues';
    var url = 'index2.php?user=200';
    var url = 'index2.php?user=IVR2';

NOTE: From now, this webphone can be used only with Internet Explorer.
