switches to propagate network traffic through this additional port. This capability is what allows the
Desktop Monitor service to see the phone conversations on the agent's phone.
By default, this service is active on all agent desktops when the application is started. After initial
installation of the CAD servers, all agents are already configured to use the Desktop Monitor service for
the silent monitoring feature.
installation of the CAD servers, all agents are already configured to use the Desktop Monitor service for
the silent monitoring feature.
A VoIP Monitor service is able to handle multiple requests for silent monitoring simultaneously. It
captures packets directly from the switch via the switch's Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) configuration.
An installation may have up to five VoIP Monitor services on different machines. Off-board VoIP
services may be installed at remote office locations. In some instances, this service may be required due
to network complexity and capacity planning. Agents must be explicitly configured to use a VoIP
Monitor service if this is the method desired for silently monitoring for that agent's device.

The Recording and Playback service may also provide the two streams representing a phone call when
a supervisor plays back a recorded agent call. In this case, the streams have already been stored on disk
from an earlier recording session. The Recording and Playback service reads the raw data files from the
disk and sends the RTP streams over the network to the supervisor's desktop, where they are played
through the sound card.
