Glossary
Abbreviated Dial 
Feature
Allows the agent to store telephone numbers, that the agent selects, for quicker 
and easier dialing by selecting a single button. Each number can be a complete 
or partial telephone number, an extension number, or a trunk or feature code.
ACD
See Automatic Call Distribution (ACD).
Active Call
A call appearance state where the voice (talk) path between two parties has 
been connected.
ACW
See After Call Work (ACW).
Add/Remove 
Programs
A Microsoft Windows feature that allows you to remove programs that have 
been installed on your computer. The Add/Remove Programs component is 
found in the Control Panel.
After Call Work 
(ACW)
An ACD agent work mode in which agents are performing tasks related to a 
previously completed call. In this mode, the agents are unavailable to receive 
ACD calls.
Agent
A person who receives calls that are delivered from a split or skill.
Agent Mode
An agent logs into an Avaya communication server with a specific agent ID, 
which is associated with certain assigned skills and configuration settings. Do 
not confuse this with registering as an extension with the Avaya communication 
server as an agent must first register as an extension before logging in with an 
agent ID.
Logging in as an agent enables the Agent toolbar in the main window.
Agent Skill
A centrally-defined attribute that is associated with an EAS ACD agent ID, 
which represents a certain ability or assignment for that agent. An agent can be 
assigned up to 20 skills. The meaning of each Agent Skill is customizable. 
Examples of what could be considered skills are: the ability to speak a 
particular language or the expertise to handle a certain product.
Agent work mode
A feature of agent call handling. Agent work modes are the different call work 
modes and call states an agent can be in (logins, logouts, After Call Work, AUX, 
and so forth). Data about these states is displayed in the history log.
Agent toolbar
A toolbar that provides buttons for agent login and logout and agent modes, 
such as Auto-In, Manual-In, and After Call Work.
Alternate 
Gatekeeper
A feature of Avaya communication servers that notifies IP endpoints of all IP 
addresses for a network region. If communication fails with an IP address on 
the Avaya communication server, Avaya IP Agent attempts to reconnect with 
another IP address within the same network region.
Alternate User 
Interface
Avaya IP Agent interfaces that use much less space on the Desktop than the 
main window.
