Description:-Provides TAPI (Telephony API) 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 TSPs (Telephony Service Providers).
The telephony service cannot be stopped if there is another dependent service, such as the Remote Access Auto Connection Manager, Remote Access Connection Manager or Fax services are started. If there are no other dependent services are running and the telephony service is stopped, telephony will be restarted when a TAPI dependent application such Fax or Windows Product Activation makes an initialization call to the TAPI interface.
If this service is stopped or disabled, any program that depends upon telephony, including modem subsystem support, will not function correctly.
