A client-server telephone call router system as part of a customer premises system has a client-server router adapted to execute on a telephony switch, such as a public branch exchange (PBX) or other telephony switch, or on a processor connected by CTI link to a telephony switch. The telephony switch or processor executing the router is connected to a local area network (LAN) that also interconnects computer workstations proximate to telephones connected to the telephony switch. Client user interface applications run on the computer workstations, allowing clients to edit routing rules for the router, which has a list of routing rules keyed to users and workstations of the customer premises system. The editing rules are kept by the router in portions dedicated to individual users. With this system a user can edit at a workstation on the LAN his\her own routing rules, and transmit the edits to the client-server router where the rules will be followed to route calls for that user and protocol.

Methods and apparatus for personal routing in computer-simulated telephony

A computer simulation system adapted for simulating a telephony call center comprises individual software modules simulating separate entities of the call center in the simulated call center, and a graphical user interface (GUI). In the GUI the individual software modules are presented as icons movable and connectable on the screen to alter characteristics of the simulated call center. In a preferred embodiment the simulation system is adapted for testing computer telephony integration (CTI) applications. In this embodiment one of the software module icons comprises a (CTI) link interface library adapted to provide communication between the simulated call center and the CTI application in a manner that the simulated call center will behave as a specific switch type in a specific instance. Also in a preferred embodiment one of the individual software modules is a telephony objects module representing a telephony switch and connected telephony devices, agents, and associated behavior. In this aspect individual telephony objects are represented in the GUI as icons that may be selected and added to or subtracted from the telephony objects module to alter the behavior repertoire of the module.
