Telephone software and application files
• SET commands, of the form SET parameter_name value. Invalid values cause the
specified value to be ignored for the associated parameter_name so the default or previously
administered value is retained. All values must be text strings, even if the value itself is
numeric, a dotted decimal IP Address, etc.
• Comments, which are statements that start with either two pound characters (##) or one
pound (#) character followed by any character except space, in the first column.
Note:
The pound (#) character followed by a space represents a tag, and not a comment.

Using the GROUP parameter to set up customized groups

About this task
Different users might have the same phone model, but require different administered settings. For
example, you might want to restrict call center agents from logging off, which might be an
essential capability for hot-desking associates.
Use the GROUP parameter to set up customized groups:
Procedure
1. Identify the phones and the groups the phones belong to, and designate a number for each
group.
The number can be any integer from 0 to 999, with 0 as the default, meaning your largest
group is assigned as Group 0.
2. You can only set the GROUP parameter either at each individual deskphone or when a you
register a phone with Avaya Aura
To set the GROUP parameter on each deskphone, use the GROUP procedure from the
local administrative options. See Avaya IP Deskphone Edition for 9600 Series IP
Telephones, Installation and Maintenance Guide, 16-300694. To set the GROUP
parameter on a phone registered with Communication Manager, administer the GROUP
parameter on a phone-by-phone basis on the Communication Manager Station Form.
3. After you assign the GROUP assignments, edit the configuration file to enable each phone
of the appropriate group to download the proper settings.
