If you are copying to a number of records, this process could take some time to complete. Do
not attempt to go in and make any adjustments to individual DN records until the copy process
is finished.
Caution: Caller ID set (DNXXX, Line Access, Line Assignment, Line XXX).
You can only enable Caller ID Set (target lines and analog devices attached to an ASM8+)
on a maximum of 30 telephones. If you attempt to copy an enabled setting to more than 30
sets, you will receive an error message.

Renumbering DNs

Your system auto assigns DNs based on the hardware for digital telephones, or, in the case of IP
telephones, you choose to auto assign DNs when the telephones register to the system.
When you change a DN, the DN record retains the same port number, since the telephone is not
being physically moved. The original DN then assigns to the port vacated by the DN that you
assign as the new DN. If you filled out the DN/Port record in the Programming Records, remember
to change the entries.
Change telephone DNs using the Element Manager
The General Settings heading also provides access to a panel where you can change the DN
setting.
Click on the keys beside Services, Telephony Services.
