20.1.2 What You Need to Know About Group Management
Managing Authority Groups
You control extensions within an authority group by associating (linking) authority groups
with:
• Other Authority Groups - When you create an authority group it is by default linked to
all other authority groups created on the X6004 and all the other authority groups are also
linked to it. This means that any extension created on the X6004 can call any other
extension created on the X6004 regardless if they are part of the same authority group.
You can, however, stop extensions within one authority group from calling extensions in
another authority group. An example is shown below. You have an organization with three
authority groups (AG1-AG3). You can remove the link from one authority group (for
example AG3) to another authority group (for example AG2) to stop extensions in AG3
from calling AG2 (AG2 can still call AG3).

• LCRs - An LCR is an outbound dialing rule. When you create links from an authority
group to an LCR, you allow the extensions in that authority group to make outbound calls
via the outbound line groups configured in the LCR. The following figure shows AG1,
which is an authority group for the sales department, associated with LCR1 (this could be
an LCR allowing calls through your local telephone service provider - PSTN and calls via
a link to your branch office - TrustedPeer) and LCR2 (this could be an LCR for long
distance calls via your VoIP service provider ITSP). AG2 is associated with LCR1 only.
In this case extensions belonging to AG1 can make calls via all outbound line groups,
whereas extensions in AG2 are limited to calls to your local telephone company and your
branch office.
