Definitions
Overview
Cisco WebDialer, which is installed on a Cisco CallManager server and used in conjunction with Cisco CallManager, allows Cisco IP Phone users to make calls from web and desktop applications. For example, Cisco WebDialer uses hyperlinked telephone numbers in a company directory to allow users to make calls from a web page by clicking on the telephone number of the person that they are trying to call.
The two main components of Cisco WebDialer are the Webdialer and Redirector servlets.
Webdialer Servlet
The WebDialer servlet is a Java servlet that allows Cisco CallManager users in a specific cluster to make and end calls, as well as to access their phone and line configuration.
Cisco WebDialer applications interact with the WebDialer servlet through two interfaces:
•
The SOAP over HTTP interface—This interface that is based on the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) gets used to develop desktop applications such as Microsoft Outlook Add-in and SameTime Client Plug-in. Developers can use the isClusterUserSoap interface to design multicluster applications that require functionality similar to a Redirector servlet.
•
HTML over HTTP interface—This interface that is based on the HTTP protocol gets used to develop web-based applications such as the Cisco CallManager directory search page (directory.asp). Developers who use this interface can use the Redirector servlet for designing multicluster applications.
Redirector Servlet
The Redirector servlet, a Java based Tomcat servlet finds the Cisco CallManager cluster for a request made by a Cisco WebDialer user. It redirects that request to the specific Cisco WebDialer server that is located in that user's Cisco CallManager cluster. Availability of the Redirector servlet occurs only for multicluster applications and only for applications that are developed by using HTML over HTTP interfaces.
Figure 1 illustrates how a Redirector servlet redirects a call in a multicluster environment.
Figure 1 Multiple Clusters
Example of Cisco WebDialer Using the Redirector Servlet
For example, consider three clusters, each one in a single city such as San Jose (SJ-CM), Dallas (D-CM), and New York (NY-CM). Each cluster contains three Cisco CallManager servers with Webdialer servlets that have been configured for Cisco CallManager servers SJ-CM1, D-CM2, and NY-CM3.
The system administrator configures the Webdialer servlets on any of the Cisco CallManager servers by entering the IP address of that specific Cisco CallManager server in the wdservers service parameter.
For information on configuring Webdialer and Redirector servlets, refer to the Cisco WebDialer chapter in the Cisco CallManager Features and Services Guide, Release 4.0(1).
When a user who is located in San Jose clicks on a telephone number in the corporate directory search page that is enabled by Cisco WebDialer, the following actions happen:
1.
The Cisco CallManager server sends an initial makeCall HTTP request to the Redirector servlet.
2.
If this request is received for the first time, the Redirector servlet reads the Cisco WebDialer server cookie and finds it empty.
For a repeat request, the Redirector servlet reads the IP address of the Cisco WebDialer server that previously serviced the client and sends a isClusterUser HTTP request only to that server.
3.
The Redirector servlet sends back a response asking for information, which results in the authentication dialog box opening for the user.
4.
The user enters the Cisco CallManager user ID and password and clicks the Submit button.
5.
The Redirector servlet reads only the user identification from this information and sends a isClusterUser HTTP request to each Cisco WebDialer server that has been configured by the system administrator.
Figure 1 illustrates how this request is sent to the Webdialer servlets that have been configured for SJ-CM1, D-CM2, and NY-CM3. Depending on the geographical location of the calling party, the WebDialer servlet from the cluster representing that location responds positively to the Redirector servlet. The remaining Webdialer servlets that were contacted return a negative response. The WebDialer servlet SJ-CM1 responds positively to the request because the calling party is located in San Jose (SJ-CM).
The Redirector servlet redirects the original request from the user to SJ-CM1 and sets a cookie on the user's browser for future use.
Call Flows
The call flows in this section describe the flow of events for client and browser-based applications that use Cisco WebDialer, and should help you design customized applications for Cisco WebDialer.
Desktop-based Client Application Call Flow
Figure 2 shows the call flow for an outgoing call from a client application such as Microsoft Outlook Plug-in to a WebDialer servlet. The user clicks the Dial or Make Call button in the address book of the client application. If the user is making a call for the first time, the application does not have authentication or configuration information on the user.
Figure 2 Cisco WebDialer Call Flow for a Client-based Application
If the user makes a call for the first time:
1.
The client sends a makeCallSoap request to the configured WebDialer servlet.
2.
The WebDialer servlet attempts to authenticate the user. Figure 2 shows an authentication failure because the authentication information is incomplete or does not exist.
3.
The WebDialer servlet sends an authentication failure response to the client application.
4.
The client application displays a dialog box on the computer screen of the user asking for the user ID and password. The user enters this information and clicks the submit button. The user ID and password is now stored for future invocations of the application.
5.
The application sends a repeat SOAP request to the WebDialer servlet. The request contains credential information on the user.
6.
The WebDialer servlet authenticates the user.
7.
The WebDialer servlet reads any missing configuration information in the request.
8.
The WebDialer servlet returns a configuration error message to the client application.
9.
The client application sends a getConfigSoap request to the WebDialer servlet.
10.
The WebDialer servlet responds with the user's configuration information stored in the directory.
11.
The client application displays a configuration dialog box on the user's computer screen asking the user to select or update the configuration. The user enters the information and clicks the submit button. The user's configuration information is now stored for future invocations of the application.
12.
The client resends the makeCallSoap request to the WebDialer servlet. This request contains the user's configuration information.
13.
The WebDialer servlet authenticates the user and dials the telephone number using the information contained in the makeCallSoap request. It responds back to the client with a success or failure message.
Note
The call flow goes directly to step twelve:
•
If the credential and configuration information is already stored when the application is installed.
•
For all subsequent requests made by the user.
Browser-based Application Call Flow
Figure 3 shows the call flow for an HTTP based browser application such as a directory search page, personal address book, or the Cisco CallManager directory search page (directory.asp) which is bundled with Cisco CallManager.
The user clicks the Dial or Make Call button in the address book of the client application. If the user is making a call for the first time, the application does not have authentication or configuration information on the user.
If the user makes a call for the first time:
1.
The client sends a makeCall HTTP request to the configured WebDialer servlet. The query string contains the number to be called.
2.
The WebDialer servlet authenticates the user. Authentication fails because the authentication information is incomplete or does not exist.
Note
Authentication is successful if the user's credentials are sent with the request, and the call flow goes directly to number seven.
3.
The WebDialer servlet sends an authentication dialog to the client browser for user authentication.
4.
The user enters the user ID and password and clicks the Submit button.
5.
The client sends a makeCallHTTP request containing the user's credentials to the WebDialer servlet.
6.
The WebDialer servlet authenticates the user.
7.
The WebDialer servlet reads the configuration information in the cookie which is sent with the request.
8.
Assuming that the request is made for the first time, the servlet sends a response containing a cookie to the client's browser. The cookie containing the client's credentials is stored on the client's browser. The client's credentials are user ID, IP address, and the time of the request.
9.
The user enters the updates in the configuration dialog box and clicks the Submit button.
10.
The client's browser sends a makeCall HTTP request to the WebDialer servlet. The request contains a cookie with the credential and configuration information in parameter form.
11.
The WebDialer servlet uses the credentials to authenticate the user and saves the configuration information in its memory.
12.
The WebDialer servlet sends a makeCall confirmation dialog to the client's browser with the configuration information stored in a cookie. The cookie is stored on the client's browser for future invocations.
13.
The Make Call dialog box appears on the user's computer screen. The user clicks the Dial button which sends another makeCall HTTP request to the WebDialer servlet.
14.
The WebDialer servlet authenticates the user using the credentials in the cookie, retrieves the configuration information from the cookie, and makes the call.
15.
The servlet responds by sending an endCall confirmation dialog to the user to end the call. The End Call dialog box appears on the user's computer screen and stays there for the amount of time configured in the service parameters.
For all subsequent requests, the call flow starts at number 12 and ends at number 15.

Interfaces
Cisco WebDialer applications interact with the WebDialer servlet through two interfaces:
•
The SOAP over HTTP interface— This interface is based on the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and is used to develop desktop applications such as Microsoft Outlook Add-in and SameTime Client Plug-in. Developers can use the isClusterUserSoap interface to design multi-cluster applications that require functionality similar to a Redirector servlet.
•
HTML over HTTP interface— This interface is based on the HTTP protocol and is used to develop web-based applications such as the Cisco CallManager directory search page (directory.asp). Developers using this interface can use the Redirector servlet for designing multi-cluster applications.
Note
The following files, normally located in C:\Program Files\Cisco\WebDialer, must be run to properly set the ENV variable and Java classes:
installWDService.bat
installWDSOAP.bat

This section describes the HTML over HTTP interfaces.
makeCall
The makeCall interface is used in customized directory search applications. It is also used by the directory search page (directory.asp) that is bundled with Cisco CallManager. The makeCall interface is accessed by initiating an HTTP request to the URL http://ipaddress/webdialer/Webdialer. In this URL, ipaddress is the IP address of the Cisco CallManager server for which Cisco WebDialer is configured.
This interface is used by browser-based applications in which the browser accepts cookies. The user profile exists only for the length of the session if the cookies are disabled in a browser. For a sample script that is used to enable directory search pages, go to the "Sample JavaScript" section.
Parameters

makeCallProxy
The makeCallProxy interface is accessed by initiating an HTTP request to the URL http://ipaddress/webdialer/Webdialer?cmd=doMakeCallProxy. This interface is used by browser-based applications in which the browser accepts cookies. If the cookies are disabled in a browser, the user profile exists for only the length of the session.
The makeCallProxy interface can be used by applications such as a personal address book, defined in the CCMUser pages at http://cmserver/CCMUser. The credential of the application is used, as a proxy, to make calls on behalf of users. Since these users have authenticated themselves before accessing the CCMUser page, they are not prompted again for their user ID and password. The application sends the user ID and password of the proxy user in the form of a query string in the request, or as a parameter in the body of the POST message.
For a sample script that is used to enable directory search pages, go to the "Sample JavaScript" section.

Access to all tools on the Cisco Technical Support Website requires a Cisco.com user ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a user ID or password, you can register at this URL:

Note
Use the Cisco Product Identification (CPI) tool to locate your product serial number before submitting a web or phone request for service. You can access the CPI tool from the Cisco Technical Support Website by clicking the Tools & Resources link under Documentation & Tools. Choose Cisco Product Identification Tool from the Alphabetical Index drop-down list, or click the Cisco Product Identification Tool link under Alerts & RMAs. The CPI tool offers three search options: by product ID or model name; by tree view; or for certain products, by copying and pasting show command output. Search results show an illustration of your product with the serial number label location highlighted. Locate the serial number label on your product and record the information before placing a service call.
Submitting a Service Request
Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request is assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:
http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest
For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.
To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:
Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553-2447For a complete list of Cisco TAC contacts, go to this URL:

Definitions of Service Request Severity
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is "down," or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
