Description
For MERLIN LEGEND Communications Systems of Release 6.1 or later, a
network functionality has been added that allows a MERLIN LEGEND system
without a voice messaging system (VMS) to use the VMS of another MERLIN
LEGEND system. The sharing of the VMS is transparent to the users of both
systems. Thus, Voice Mail, Auto Attendant, and fax messaging can be used by
extensions on a MERLIN LEGEND system that does not contain a VMS.
Each MERLIN LEGEND system that is sharing the VMS must be connected
directly by tandem trunks to the MERLIN LEGEND system containing the VMS.
No other system can be in between (see the Network Reference for more
information).
After a message has been received for a specific extension, the VMS turns on the
Message Waiting light on that extension's telephone, regardless of whether the
extension is on the local or remote system.
Centralized Voice Messaging is supported with the following voice messaging
systems:
MERLIN LEGEND Mail
Messaging 2000
Intuity AUDIX
IS III AUDIX Voice Power (no longer available)
See the Network Reference for the Considerations, Constraints, and Feature
