After you configure the telephone for the Auto Attendant, you must
configure a Line Card port.
1 Click the Tab To It button, and then click the Line Card Ports tab under
Device Configuration .
2 Click the first line card port in the list, and then click Modify .
3 Verify that the port's Auto Extension is set to 500 .
The Auto Extension setting determines where an incoming call on this
port rings. Setting Auto Extension to 500 directs the call to the Auto
Attendant if no one answers after 4 rings. (The system uses 500 as a
default if you leave the Auto Extension box empty.)
For each line card port that you will map to the Attendant Console,
repeat steps 9 and 10. Make note of the extension number assigned to
each line card port. You need to map these extensions to Access buttons
on the Attendant Console telephone. Auto Discovery uses 500 as the
default setting for the Auto Extension .
4 On the Device Configuration dialog box, click the Telephone Groups tab.
5 On the Current Groups list, click the Attendant Console group, and then
click Button Mappings .
6 Map the line card ports to the telephone's Access Buttons.
For each button:
For Type , choose "line" from the list.

For Number , specify a line card port extension. Line card port

extensions start at 700. If you configured the line card ports
carefully, the first line card port resides in chassis 1, slot 2, and it is
connected to a specific telephone company telephone number.
Keeping track of line card ports and their extensions allows you to
map telephone company telephone numbers to specific telephone
buttons. You can also create Busy Lamp/Speed Dial buttons by
setting the Type to Line and the Number to an internal extension.
When users press that Access button, it functions as a Speed Dial
to the extension. When that extension is in use, the Access button
lamp lights.
