Managing phones
555-233-50694 Issue 5 October 2002
The System Configuration screen shows all the boards on your system that
are available for connecting phones. You can see the board number, board
type, circuit-pack type, and status of each board’s ports.
4. Choose an available port and record its port address.
Each port that is available or unassigned is indicated by a ‘
u.’ Choose an
available port from a board type that matches your phone type (such as a
port on an analog board for an analog phone).
Every phone must have a valid port assignment, also called a port address.
The combined board number and port number is the port address. So, if you
want to attach a phone to the 3rd port on the 01C05 board, the port address
is 01C0503 (01=cabinet, C=carrier, 05=slot, 03=port).
Tip:
If you add several phones at one time, you may want to print a paper
copy of the System Configuration screen. To print the screen to a
printer attached to the system terminal, type
list configuration
station print
and press RETURN. To print to the system printer that
you use for scheduled reports, type
list configuration station
schedule immediate
and press RETURN.
5. Choose an extension number for the new phone.
The extension you choose must not be assigned and must conform to your
dial plan. You should also determine whether this user needs an extension
that can be directly dialed (DID) or reached via a central phone number.
Be sure to note your port and extension selections on your system’s paper
records.
