PBX Integration Board User's Guide

4. PBX Systems
• Delete: Remove an entry from the directory. This command does not
require a D82/D42 port to be specified.
• Update: Update an existing entry in the directory. Similar to the Add
command, the Name field is only required if the “skip” option was
selected. This command will also add the entry to directory if none exists.
• Write: Write the given configuration in memory to disk.
• Cfg: Enable or disable the feature. If it is enabled, then d42_gtcallid( )
and d42_gtcallidex( ) will use the file to translate between the phone’s
label and the given extension for forwarded calls.
• Table-size: The default size is 284 entries, which is the theoretical limit of
a BCM 400 PBX. Administrators can adjust this value as required, but it
is recommended that the default value be used.
NOTE: For runtime efficiency, this value is fixed when the application
starts. If this value is changed, the application needs to restart.
• Timestamp-check: For run-time efficiency, d42_gtcallid( ) and
d42_gtcallidex( ) only check the configuration file periodically. If the file
has changed after the specified time, then d42_gtcallid( ) or
d42_gtcallidex( ) will re-read the configuration file.
• Print: Print the configuration file to screen.
• Quit: exit extbuilder application.
NOTE: Administrators can use the arrow keys to navigate through the
available commands.
Administrators can use the extbuilder in interactive mode to:
• Make initial configurations.
• Populate the directory when the system is initially deployed.
• Make spot updates, once the system has been deployed.
The extbuilder also has a batch mode where administrators can schedule the
application to run during off-service hours. Some limitations apply in this
mode:
• Updates only occur when extbuilder is executed. Therefore, the updated
CPID information is only available at a delayed time.
• Extbuilder can operate on a range of contiguous phone numbers. Numbers
such as hunt groups should be skipped. For example, if there were two
ranges of phone numbers, then two separate entries would be needed to
cover each range.
