If you have paid a capitation fee then hosting is provided per the service level chosen. This will be your AWS, Azure, GCP or Linode account.

This service is live on this page if the doorbell in the left nav has a light blue button.
Priced videotelephony (VT) providers (e.g. Zoom) I use as an ordinary free tier user. For this reason encounters/first contact using them must be within the free session limits, currently in the case of Zoom, 40 minutes.

DS — Desktop Sharing

In Tele, Jitsi presenter mode is used for presentation but Guacamole for collaborative desktop sharing. If a SAR session is active, clicking the desktop link on the doorbell should go to a guac server instead of this article. A VT common carriers' version may be used instead if supported, eg. Skype or Zoom, during first contact per above.

Tips

The following can make for a smoother sharing experience. At least token entitlement will be necessary before any service can proceed.

Be at an actual desktop

Tablets such as iPad Pro and Galaxy Note may be supported later but for now an actual Linux, Mac, or Windows desktop is. Support may be discussed initially via small form factor.

Select medium/modality

Ft doorbell

The Ft doorbell fronts the selected VT provider and is the default means of live interaction. SAR (single authentication realm) users can use the soft smart doorbell similar to the physical apps.

Phone

To avoid voice mail, let me know so I can add you to contacts. The concept of the soft smart doorbell pretty much replaces the impromptu call by analogy to a doorbell IRL and it's embedded in the DS App.

Text

While I may answer the doorbell with video enabled, the default is voice plus text with video by mutual agreement. Just being developed, the conversational agents, mixing streams of my live and automated personæ, will later be the main service channel.

Video

Jitsi is provided free from these domains as a default. Apple FaceTime, Skype and Zoom are supported for first contact. Video need not involve a face-face interaction, it can be voice, text and screen sharing without a live feed other than the desktop presentation.

Have hosting authentication ready

In PWYWGs ...

You shouldn't share your hosting and other service provider login info but have it ready to use on your side of things or use it before or outside screen sharing.

In a regular biz case ...

Your F class capitation includes provisioning at the system limits. For over these quotas you can either use your AWS, Azure, GCP or Linode accounts or be billed monthly. In the first case set the vendor login info in your DCMS profile. The order in which I am implementing cloud vendor support is Linode, AWS, GCP and Azure.

Close pornhub tabs

Just kidding, but you may want to check if anything sensitive on the desktop needs to be adjusted for the session.


Ft Common Carrier

Tele is a marque for the bundling of videotelephony (VT) and screen sharing for embeding in the domains CMS and domain space generally.

With origins going back past the Flash Red5 ofla stuff to more recent Skype and lately with Jitsi as default VT/desktop sharing, the first commercial platform target, Ft Tele is simply a mnemonic for streaming in the two major functions, under my development. In the current usage, Red5 (no longer supported ofc) would have been the original Common Carrier for the VT major function. The other major function of Ft is desktop sharing. Ft abstracts and unifies these major functions to support various backend providers who then become common carriers.

Jitsi as integrated here or via its outlets is currently the default common carrier.

Secure Connections

Your connection is secure, only SAR users can connect to the guacamole server or use the doorbell.

Registration with Google or Apple from the app is free. Manual registration is deprecated but there is a path to it from devops1.
