Configuring the CRM Connector for Unified Contact Center 
As noted above you will only need to configure a single CTIModule to 
support the enterprise scale of Unified Contact Center Enterprise and 
Hosted.  This configuration section assumes that you have not already 
configured a CRM Connector.  If you have configured and tested your 
implementation with the Null CTI connector you will need to edit your 
config.ini file to replace the NULL CTI connector with the Cisco CRM 
Connector.    
The rest of this section provides step-by-step instructions on implementing 
the CRM Connector for UCCE or UCCH. 
Step 1:  Assemble required CTI Server connection information. 
In order to configure the Cisco CRM Connector you will need information 
about your CTI Server configuration.   
You will need to know if your system is configured as a simplex or a 
duplex environment.   
1.  You will need to know the host name for the CTI Server and the 
server port.  In a duplex environment you will need to know both 
the Side A and side B host names and ports.  In a simplex 
environment only configure side A. 
1.  The Unified Contact Center peripheral type is 
CISCO_CALLMAN.  (This is case sensitive.) 
2.  You will need to know the peripheral ID for the Call Manager 
Expert Agent PG at your site. 
3.  If you intend to use a meaningful four character channel name you 
should plan it in advance, otherwise you may choose the default 
channel name “CTI1”. 
Step 2:  Backup the config.ini file. 
If you are using a text editor, backup the current config.ini file.  It is good 
practice to always edit a copy of a file to guard against accidental changes 
that affect your system’s operation. 
Step 3:  Open config.ini file for editing. 
Use the Administration Tool if you have installed it, or simply navigate to 
the config.ini file and open it with a text editor. 
Step 4:  Enable the CRM Connector module in module 
manager. 
This may already be configured, because the default config.ini file 
includes the module class and module definitions for the CRM Connector.  
Also the CRM Connector Server implementation chapter included these 
definitions in the sample config.ini.  However we will repeat those steps 
here. 
1.  In the module manager create the module class definition for the 
CRM Connector.  This is:  
ModuleClass=CiscoCTI,Cisco.AMC_Cisco
