Avaya Vantage
™
uses PPM to:
• Obtain emergency numbers.
• Obtain configuration parameters that impact the Avaya Vantage
™
platform, such as
PROCPSWD.
• Back up and restore specific user configuration settings, such as language or time format
settings. When the user logs in to any registered device, PPM restores user data on the
device.
CSDK-based applications, such as Avaya Vantage
™
Basic, use PPM for the following purposes:
• For contact management, such as retrieving and updating of PPM or Avaya Aura
®
contacts.
• To obtain emergency numbers and Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP) values.
• To obtain application configuration parameters.
Until SIP registration succeeds, Avaya Vantage
™
uses IP addresses specified in
SIP_CONTROLLER_LIST for the getInitialEndpointConfiguration request. If the PPM server is
unreachable, Avaya Vantage
™
tries the next IP address from SIP_CONTROLLER_LIST. Similarly,
after SIP registration is complete, Avaya Vantage
™
uses IP addresses from
SIP_CONTROLLER_LIST to perform all other PPM requests. If the PPM server is unreachable,
Avaya Vantage
™
tries the next IP address from SIP_CONTROLLER_LIST.
PPM is disabled if the value of ACTIVE_CSDK_BASED_PHONE_APP is “” (null string), or if the
application specified in ACTIVE_CSDK_BASED_PHONE_APP is not installed.
