Description
Define how the line is used in relation to other lines in the system.
• Public line: can be accessed by more than one telephone.
• Private line: can be assigned only to one telephone and the prime telephone for
that line. Enter the internal number of the telephone.
• Pool A - O: assigns the line to one of the line pools. If a line is assigned to a line
pool, but is not assigned to any telephone, that line is available only for outgoing
calls.
For more information and tips, refer to
Specify whether the system uses dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) or pulse
signaling on the trunk.
Tone does not appear if Signaling is set to Immediate
(T1 DID &T1 E&M trunk types only).
Assign a telephone to provide backup answering for calls on the line. For an Auto
Answer line, calls are redirected if the received number is invalid or the target line is
busy, and if the If busy parameter is set To prime.
Each line can be assigned only one prime telephone.
This field shows the Distinct Ring Patterns that have already been assigned to at
least one line.
