<h1 class="topictitle1">Interaction with a Lotus Sametime server</h1>
<div><p>Lotus<sup>®</sup> Sametime<sup>®</sup> is
real-time collaboration software -- with online awareness, instant messaging,
application sharing and virtual meetings.</p>
<p>Sametime consists
of client and server applications that enable a community of users to collaborate
in real-time online meetings over an intranet or the Internet. Members of
the Sametime community
use collaborative activities such as presence, chat, screen sharing, a shared
whiteboard, and real-time audio/video capabilities to meet, converse, and
work together in instant or scheduled meetings.</p>
<p>Sametime "presence"
technology enables members who have logged in to the Sametime server to see all other members
who are online (logged in). The names of online users display in presence
lists (also known as buddy lists) in Sametime applications. From these presence
lists, members of the community can converse through instant messaging sessions
or start instant meetings that include chat, screen-sharing, whiteboard, question
and answer polls, the ability to send Web pages, and audio/video collaborative
activities.</p>
<p>To allow the IBM<sup>®</sup> Welcome
Page V1.1 application and the IBM Telephone Directory V5.2 application
to integrate Sametime functions,
it uses the Sametime Links
optional toolkit for Lotus Sametime. The Sametime Links toolkit is used for
enabling Web applications and with Sametime awareness and instant messaging
using an HTML or JavaScript™ API.</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> The IBM Welcome
Page V1.1 application is used to configure the location of the online Sametime Links
(STLinks) package, such as server name and URL, in the user's environment.
When configured, the Sametime chat links and Sametime presence list support (also
known as buddy lists) features can be enabled. These features use the Sametime Links
toolkit APIs on HTML screens in the IBM Telephone Directory V5.2 application.</div>
<p>When a user logs in to search for directory entries, results are returned
on HTML pages. The pages display information obtained from the directory for
each matching entry. Results always contain the name of each entry and may
also contain email addresses, telephone numbers, and a list of job responsibilities.
When Sametime chat
links are enabled, results also include awareness icons for each entry (provided
by the Sametime Links
toolkit). Awareness icons are used to indicate whether the other users are
online (logged into Sametime). If they are logged in, users can click
on the awareness icons to initiate chat sessions with other users using Sametime technology.</p>
<p>Another feature of IBM Welcome Page V1.1 is the Sametime presence list support (also
known as a buddy list). The IBM Welcome Page V1.1 application is used to configure Sametime buddy
list support. When configured, an Add to Buddy List icon is displayed in the
navigation bar of the IBM Telephone Directory V5.2 application. When this icon
is clicked, the directory entry that is displayed is added to the user's Sametime buddy
list. IBM Telephone
Directory V5.2 provides the ability to add listings to a buddy list. Sametime client
software, or other Sametime software, must be used in order to use
and manage the buddy list.</p>
<p>Interaction with the Sametime server for chat sessions and buddy list
support is handled by the Sametime Links toolkit APIs that runs in the client
browser. IBM Welcome
Page V1.1 does not provide the toolkit, rather, it adds what is needed on
the HTML pages for the toolkit package to be downloaded from the Sametime server.</p>
<p>See <a href="wpadmin.htm">Administer IBM Welcome Page V1.1</a> for more information
on how to set up and use Sametime integration in the business applications:</p>

toolkit (<strong>Note:</strong> Lotus Sametime is also known as Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing
and the Sametime Toolkit
is also known as the Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing Toolkit):</p>
