Introduction
This document describes one reason why Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) data does not populate the Cisco Agent Desktop in a Cisco Intelligent Contact Management (ICM) Enterprise environment. This document also provides a possible workaround.
Prerequisites
Requirements
Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics:
-
Cisco ICM Enterprise
-
Cisco IP Contact Center (IPCC) Enterprise
-
Cisco CTI Server
Components Used
The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:
-
Cisco ICM version 5.x and later
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.
Conventions
Refer to Cisco Technical Tips Conventions for more information on document conventions.
Topology
Figure 1 represents a sample CTI configuration to demonstrate the high-level data flow. This data flow enables you to understand the problem and develop a diagnostic approach.
Figure 1 – A Sample CTI Configuration
Problem
CTI data fails to reach the Cisco Agent Desktop. Through a screen pop, agents do not receive the information that callers enter at the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) prompt.
Note: This problem occurs only when you upgrade ICM version 4.5.x or earlier to ICM version 5 and later.
Cause
This problem occurs due to two registry settings on the peripheral gateway (PG).
Solution
Complete these steps in order to solve this problem:
-
Shut down both PGs in a duplexed environment.
-
Navigate to this registry path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cisco Systems, INC.\ICM\<Cust_Inst>\ PG<xxA/B>\PG\CurrentVersion\OPC\OPIData
-
Set the DWORD value of AgentVailableStateUpdateDelayInMilliSeconds to 0 (see arrow A in Figure 2).
-
Set the DWORD value of CTIAgentEventFlushTimeoutInMilliSeconds to 0 (see arrow B in Figure 2).
-
Restart both PGs.
-
This message appears in the OPC log on the active PG side:
