Glossary
IP Phone Agent

changes states using the Cisco IP Phone screen. 
IVR 
Interactive Voice Response. A system that provides information as recorded 
messages over telephone lines in response to user input in the form of spoken 
words or, more commonly, DTMF signaling.

Java Database Connectivity
See JDBC. 
Java Telephony Application Programming Interface
See JTAPI. 
JDBC
Java Database Connectivity. A Java API that enables Java programs to execute 
SQL statements, allowing Java programs to interact with any SQL-compliant 
database. Because nearly all relational DBMSs support SQL, and because Java 
itself runs on most platforms, JDBC makes it possible to write a single database 
application that can run on different platforms and can interact with different 
database management systems (DBMSs). JDBC is similar to Open Data Base 
Connectivity (ODBC) but is designed specifically for Java programs, whereas 
ODBC is language-independent. 
JTAPI
Java Telephony Application Programming Interface. A call control model developed 
by Sun Microsystems. 
JTAPI call control groups
A pooled series of CTI ports that the Cisco CRS system uses to serve calls as they 
arrive at the Cisco CRS server.
