C# Connect to Siemens Hipath 3000

Question

I am needing to connect to a Siemens Hipath 3000 in order to do logging and pull reporting. Has anyone used c# to do this, if you have done it in another language do you have any suggestions. I am currently looking at tapi in order to connect to it.

Thanks

For some documentation for Siemens HiPath / TAPI see http://wiki.siemens-enterprise.com/wiki/HiPath_3000_open_interfaces

Some starting points for TAPI via .NET:

• http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/devangpro.aspx
• http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/CShart_TAPI_3x.aspx
• http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/Video_Voice_Conferencing.aspx

I am not familiar with what protocols the Siemens HiPath offers but it might offer a syslogd-integration and/or SNMP for logging purposes... some protocols (IIRC for example TAPI) need to be licensed additionally from Siemens...
