Answer 1

Since you did not specify what specific task you would like to achieve, I list the technologies I use for interacting with Avaya phones below. You can use them to implement CLI applications to do what your use case is screaming for.

The following interfaces you can use to interact with the Avaya phones:

1. AES/CTI Server using the CVLAN or TSAPI protocol. You can control/monitor the PBX objects with it so you can see what is happening on your desk phone or you can initiate a call, answer an incoming one, etc...

You can use the TSAPI for C programs or JTAPI for Java programs.

2. AES Server using the CMAPI/DMCC protocol. With that you can register on to your desk phone. Using CMAPI/DMCC you can "pushing" your physical buttons, check what the desk phone display is currently showing, etc.

3. You can use the Push SDK for pushing unsolicited content to the phone's display.
