Adding a Tie or Access trunk group
Issue 5 October 2002 425555-233-506
7. Type 1234 in the Night Service field.
This field assigns an extension to which calls are routed outside of business
hours.
8. In the Comm Type field, type
voice.
This field defines whether a trunk group can carry voice, data, or both.
Analog trunks only carry voice and voice-grade data. If you’re
administering a T1 connection in North America, type
rbavd in this field.
9. In the Trunk Type field, type
wink/wink.
This field tells the system what kind of signaling to use on this trunk group.
Because we’re receiving and sending digits over this trunk group, we’re
using wink/wink signaling to minimize the chance of losing part of the
digit string in either direction.
10. Type
tone in both the Outgoing Dial Type and Incoming Dial Type fields.
These fields tell the switch how digits are transmitted for incoming calls.
Entering tone actually allows the trunk group to support both DTMF and
rotary signals, so Avaya recommends that you always put tone in this field.
11. Press
ENTER to save your changes.
Now you’re ready to add trunks to this trunk group. See ‘‘Adding trunks to a trunk
group’’ on page 430.
