Configuring the
Attendant Console
Adding an Attendant
Console
The Attendant Console provides extended button mappings and displays
the current status of each extension mapped to it. A receptionist typically
uses the Attendant Console to connect incoming calls to telephone
extensions.
This section describes how to configure the Attendant Console manually.
Alternatively, you can use Auto Discovery to add and configure the device
automatically, and then use the manual configuration procedures in this
section to fine-tune your mappings.
Before you autodiscover the Attendant Console, first autodiscover all
telephones, Analog Terminal Adapters, and Analog Terminal Cards. The
Auto Discovery process maps all existing telephones to the Attendant
Console.
You can associate any 3Com telephone with an Attendant Console.
However, if you use a 3Com 3103 Manager's Telephone, you cannot map
a CO line directly to a button on the Attendant Console and the
Attendant Console will not support Bridged Station Appearances.
