Characteristics
user is created during installation, which is used internally to allow the various instances of Informix 
to communicate with each other across the network. Neither the reporting users nor the Informix 
user is authenticated through Active Directory.
Active Directory
Unified Expert Advisor supports an SSL connection to Active Directory (AD).
Self-signed certificates
Certificates are exchanged automatically among the three servers in a Unified Expert Advisor 
cluster, so that they can communicate securely with each other via the ActiveMQ message bus as 
well as for database replication purposes. Note that, as each server is added to the cluster, all the 
previously added servers must be up and operational in order to exchange these certificates, or else 
installation will fail.
Sensitive call data
Unified Expert Advisor has a concept of attributes, which hold any call-specific data. If certain 
attributes contain sensitive information such as PIN codes or passwords, they can easily be 
configured so that they are never written to any log file, never stored in the historical reporting 
database, and/or never shown to expert advisors.
Intrusion protection
Unified Expert Advisor installs Cisco Security Agent 5.2 automatically with the product.
Note
Unified Expert Advisor does not yet support SIP over TLS, which includes call control activities as well 
as instant messaging and presence interactions.
Reporting
Reporting with Unified Expert Advisor is accomplished by combining information collected by Unified 
ICM with information collected by the Unified Expert Advisor Reporting Server. In general, Unified 
ICM reporting is used to report on anything it would report on for a traditional ACD, whereas the Unified 
Expert Advisor Reporting Server handles information that is specific to expert advisor operations.
The Unified Expert Advisor Reporting Server contains an Informix IDS database that collects historical 
information about assignment queues, expert advisors, and contacts. Sample reporting templates are 
provided in order to produce historical reports that cover assignment queue activity, expert advisor 
activity (including contact rejection rate), expert advisor presence statistics, contact detail information 
for the period of time in which calls were under the control of Unified Expert Advisor, and media reports 
indicating when voice and/or video were used. Two sets of templates are provided: one for Crystal 
Reports and one for Cisco Unified Intelligence Center (Unified IC) Release 7.5(2) or later. Both sets 
offer the same functionality. (Note that Cisco Unified Intelligence Suite does not offer specific support 
for Unified Expert Advisor tables.)
In Unified ICM, skill group reports, service reports, agent reports, and agent skill group reports are all 
available in both historical and real-time form. As mentioned previously, the Reporting Server is an 
optional component of Unified Expert Advisor. If it is omitted, then only those reports offered by 
Unified ICM will be available.
The Unified Expert Advisor Reporting Server can retain about 8 days worth of data, assuming a full load 
of 3000 logged in expert advisors, with each being a member of 10 assignment queues, and a sustained 
rate of 2 calls per expert per hour. (See the chapter on
