AlphaPro
From Zenitel Wiki
AlphaPro is the programming tool for the AlphaCom exchange. AlphaPro gives the facility to program the features of the exchange off-line, and at a later stage upload this programming into the exchange. AlphaPro does not extend the features of the exchange, it fills in the appropriate tables.
