Explanation
When manually configuring the Avaya Equinox Client, the system needs to authenticate the user as a person, which requires their Name (as the username/identity) and Password (as the credential) - the standard combination for user account authentication in enterprise UC clients like Equinox.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A & D (Login Code): Avaya uses a "Login Code" for phone/agent login on desk phones or Contact Center, not for the Equinox softclient - these are separate authentication mechanisms.
- C (Extension + Password): The Extension identifies a line/device, not the user account itself; Equinox logs in the user, not just a phone line, so the extension alone isn't the identity field used at manual configuration.
Memory tip: Think of it like logging into any app - you always need a who (Name) and a secret (Password). Avaya Equinox is a user-centric softclient, so it authenticates the person, not the device - keep "Extension" and "Login Code" associated with physical phones, not software clients.
