The status of the line registration with the SIP call server can be viewed from this menu. The status is

Enter the line button number or move the cursor using the Down softkey and press the Select softkey
to select a line.

Line Type
Each line represents a SIP account in the SIP server. A line must have a Line Type assignment. The three
line types available are private, shared or BLA (Bridged Line Appearance) and DSS (Direct Station
Selection). A private line generally appears on line buttons of one phone but may appear at multiple
phones as a Multiple Line Appearance (MLA). While incoming calls on a private line ring at all phones with
an appearance, an active or held private line call is accessible only to the associated phone. In addition,
the status of an active or held private line call displays only at the associated phone. Only the active user
may transfer or conference calls on a private line.
A BLA appears at line buttons of more than one phone. All phones with an appearance can access incoming
and held calls on the BLA and receive status information for the call. Note for proper operation, assign the
line as a BLA in the call server as well as the IP Phone.
A DSS line incorporates three functions associated with the needs of an answering position:
•
DSS — while the line is idle, the button calls the associated extension.
•
BLF — the Busy Lamp Field LEDs of the line button display the line status.
•
Call Coverage — incoming calls on the line are answered using the button.
To assign the Line Type:
•
Press the
button, then 2. SIP Configuration, then 1. Line Configuration.
•
Enter the line button number or move the cursor using the Down softkey and press the Select softkey
to select a line.
•
Select 8. Line Type.
•
Select the type for the line using the Down softkey and press the
Select softkey to save the selection.
Changing the Line Type requires a reboot of the IP phone. When you exit the menu, you will be prompted to reboot
the phone.
