Branch Office - Nortel 2001 User Manual

Branch Office

The Branch Office telephone can operate in Normal or Local mode.
Normal Mode
The telephone registers with the Main Office and receives telephone services from the
Main Office. At any time during Normal Mode, you can check local mode
functionality (make and receive calls) by enabling Local Mode and returning to
Normal Mode. After testing, you can return to Normal Mode by using the Resume
Normal Mode command or by waiting for ten minutes.
Local Mode
If the WAN connection goes down, the telephone loses communication with the
Main Office TPS. It then registers with the Branch Office and receives telephone
services from the Branch Office. When in Local Mode, the telephone displays
"LOCAL MODE".
Test Local Mode
Use Test Local Mode to check local mode functionality (make and receive telephone
calls). This is useful when provisioning has changed for an IP Phone on a Branch
Office Controller.
