Lifeline Configuration; Relay To Pstn - ZyXEL Communications P-2608HWL-D1 Support Notes

P-2608HWL Series Support Notes
This lifeline feature also allows you to still make phone calls during emergency situations such as contacting the
police, the fire department or emergency medical services during a power outage. The following section shows
you how to set up the lifeline support feature on the Prestige using the web configurator.

Lifeline configuration

To configure the lifeline feature on the Prestige, click VoIP > PSTN Line in the navigation panel to display the
configuration screen as shown next.
In the PSTN Line Pre-fix Number, enter the special prefix number used to set the Prestige to switch from VoIP
to the PSTN system when making a regular PSTN call. For example, when you want to dial out to a PSTN
destination, first pick up the phone (you should heard a dial tone), and enter the specified prefix number (in this
case, 0000). You will hear the dial tone again. At this point, you can dial out to PSTN as you would on a
regular PSTN system.

Relay to PSTN

The Relay to PSTN field can be found under PSTN configuration WEB GUI in Relay to PSTN section. This
field is used to specify phone numbers to which the Prestige will always send calls through the regular PSTN
phone service without pushing prefix. In other words, numbers which specify on this field do not need to dial
prefix number to be dialed out. However, these numbers must be for phones on the PSTN (not VOIP phones)
and currently, P2608HWL Series support up to nine entries under this field.
