Overview of Cisco Call Back Architecture
The Cisco Call Back feature uses the Cisco Extended Functions (CEF) service.
The CEF service comprises the following interfaces:
• Cisco CTIManager Interface (QBEHelper), page 4-3
• Cisco CallManager Database Interface (DBL Library), page 4-3
• Call Back Handler, page 4-4
• Screen Saver and Call Back Dictionary, page 4-4
• Redundancy Manager, page 4-4
• DB Change Notifier, page 4-4
• SDI Trace and Alarm, page 4-5
The CEF service interfaces with the phone by using the XML services interface
(XSI) over skinny protocol (a protocol that is used between a Cisco IP Phone and
Cisco CallManager) and the Quick Byte Encoding protocol (a protocol that is
used between the Cisco CTIManager and TSP/JTAPI). See Figure 4-1.
