4.182 In the station programming section, you can create off-node devices for stations on the
other nodes and program individual stations on the Local node. Remote Node programming is
located on this page. Local station programming information begins on the next page.

Off-Node Devices on Remote Nodes

NOTE:
more than 2000 off-node devices may cause problems with the system.
4.183 Programming off-node devices (extensions from other nodes) gives the users on this
node access to devices on other nodes. Each off-node device has an extension number, user-
name, description, device type (station, hunt group, application, or page port), and node identi-
fication number. The username and description are used for directory features only. If you
create an extension conflict between an extension on the node you are programming and an
off-node device, DB Programming does not allow you to exit the screen until you correct the
conflict.
NOTE:
description of an off-node device. In other words, remote nodes do not send updates to other
nodes when off-node device information is changed. Only the local node for that device sends
out any updates. For example, if the device is programmed as John Doe on node 1, but you
change the associated off-node device to Jane Smith on node 2, the node 2 IC directory reflects
Jane Smith. The device on node 1, however, still displays John Smith.
4.184 You can use the wildcard character X in extension numbers to represent "any digit."
This allows you to include a range of extensions as one off-node device entry. Wildcard exten-
sions can only be used for off-node devices.
4.185 Wildcard extensions are made up of digits (1-9), followed by wildcard digit X. Exam-
ples of valid wildcard extensions are 1XXX (range of 1000 to 1999), 14XX (range of 1400 to
1499), 7X (range of 70 to 79). For example, if there is a 14XX wildcard, users can dial 1433
and be connected to that off-node device.
4.186 There are some limitations to using wildcard extensions:

There will be no entry for wildcard extensions in the intercom directory. (DSS buttons
can be programmed for the individual devices the wildcard extension is representing.)
Voice Processing cannot create associated mailboxes for stations included in wildcard
ranges. To have an associated mailbox, the off-node station must have its own off-node
device entry on the node where the Voice Processing Unit is located.
