Private/Urgent Message Handling; Notification - Toshiba Strata CIX Programming Manual

Advanced Integrations and Applications
AMIS Networking
Once the message has been sent, voice mail dials the remote Destination System Number. The
message is placed in the remote mailbox and the user is returned to the Main Menu. If the
transmission fails, voice mail retries up to nine times before returning the message back to the user
for one of the following reasons:
•
Remote node does not answer
•
Remote node is busy
•
Message is too long
•
Node's phone number is incorrect
•
Mailbox number does not exist
•
Mailbox not accepting messages
•
Mailbox is full
•
Protocol error

Private/Urgent Message Handling

Because AMIS does not support Special Delivery Options, the voice mail proprietary options such
as "private" or "urgent" are striped off when the message is sent via AMIS. These messages at the
receiving mailbox are handled as normal messages.
However by using the Notify record, voice mail can use the "urgent" option to determine the timing
of the AMIS transmission. For example, normal messages can be delivered after 5:00 p.m. and the
urgent messages immediately.

Notification

Each remote node is represented by a Gateway mailbox in the local node. The node number is the
mailbox number. When a message is addressed to a remote node, it is placed in the Gateway
mailbox, with information in its header that identifies the remote box number, and the fact that it is
an AMIS-deliverable message.
A notify task is started to deliver messages to the remote site. There can be several notification tasks
for a Gateway mailbox. For each notification task, a maximum of nine messages can be transmitted.
The number of messages that can be stored in the Gateway mailbox is set by the system maximum.
If a notify task was started as the result of an urgent message being placed in the Gateway mailbox,
it is only allowed to deliver the urgent message to the remote node. The urgent status is stripped
from the message when it is sent.
