Setting up the Desk Phone configuration

The Desk Phone configuration uses an Avaya IP/DCP telephone for voice path and an Avaya one-X Agent to share control of the same administered station using the same button layout and features. You access audio components from your office phone and visual components from your personal computer.

Prerequisites
