Silent monitoring enables supervisors to monitor the conversations of agents within their team. 
Supervisors are not able to participate actively in the conversation, and the agent(s) and caller(s) are 
unaware they are being monitored. Both the Cisco Agent Desktop and the CTI Desktop Toolkit provide 
solutions support for silent monitoring. CAD Server-based monitoring supports Agent Desktops, IP 
Phone Agents, and Mobile Agents. Desktop monitoring supports only desktop agents. CTI OS 
releases 7.2 and later support two types of silent monitors: CTI OS silent monitor and Unified CM silent 
monitor.

CTI OS silent monitoring is accomplished via one or more VoIP monitoring services located either on 
the agent's desktop (desktop monitoring) or on a separate VoIP monitor server (server-based 
monitoring). CTI OS uses server-based silent monitoring to support mobile agents and desktop-based 
silent monitoring to support traditional (non-mobile) Unified CCE agents.

Unified CM accomplishes silent monitoring with a call between the supervisor's (monitoring) device and 
agent's (monitored) device. The agent's phone mixes and sends the agent's conversation to the 
supervisor's phone, where it is played out to the supervisor. Unified CM silent monitoring can be 
initiated by any of the CTI OS supervisor desktops (out-of-the-box, Java, or .NET). Any Unified CCE 
agent desktop, including Siebel, can be silently monitored using Unified CM silent monitoring, provided 
the following requirements are met:

The agent to be silently monitored is using a Cisco Unified IP Phone 7941, 7961, or 7971

The contact center is using Cisco Unified CM 6.x

Phones are configured to use RTP streams (SRTP streams cannot be silently monitored)

Unified CM silent monitoring does not support mobile agents.

Supervisors can use any Cisco IP Phone, including Cisco IP Communicator, to silently monitor.

A given CTI OS Server can be configured to use either CTI OS silent monitor or Unified CM silent 
monitor, or to disable silent monitoring.   When supervisor desktops connect to the CTI OS Server, this 
configuration is downloaded. The supervisor desktop uses this information to invoke the configured type 
of silent monitor when the Start Silent Monitor button is pressed. The initial message from the supervisor 
desktop is used by the CTI OS Server to drive either the CTI OS or Unified CM silent monitor.

For details regarding the configuration of silent monitoring, system administrators can refer to the 
CTI OS System Manager's Guide for Cisco ICM/IPCC Enterprise & Hosted Editions, available at 

Developers implementing either the CTI OS or Unified CM silent monitor should refer to the CTI OS 
Developer's Guide for Cisco ICM/IPCC Enterprise & Hosted Editions, available at
