provides Telephony API (TAPI) support for programs that control telephony devices and IP-based voice connections on the local computer and through the LAN on servers that are also running the service The telephony service enables applications to act as clients to telephony equipment such as PBXs, telephones, and modems The service supports the TAPI under which different wire protocols that communicate with telephony equipment can be supported These protocols are implemented in Telephony Service Providers (TSPs) The telephony service cannot be stopped if there is another dependent service, such as Remote Access service, currently active If no other dependent service is running and you stop the telephony service, it will be restarted when any application makes an initialization call to the TAPI interface If the service is disabled, no program that depends upon it, including modem support, will be able to run
