Call Scenarios and Applications

Call Monitoring —
VDNs and ACD Splits
The application in the adjunct processor monitors all calls entering a VDN or ACD
split. All calls have a unique call identifier (call_id) that the adjunct/application
uses to track calls (call identifiers are not shown). The first call that enters the
monitored domain does not queue, since there is an available agent to answer the
call. The second call that enters the monitored domain waits in queue until agent
A transfers the first call (destination not relevant to this example). Note that
despite the first call being transferred to another destination, the application
continues to receive event reports for the call.
