The Auto Discover Telephones check box (System Configuration >
System-wide) is how you enable the Auto Discover feature for the four
ports on each Analog Terminal Card, the single port on each Analog
Terminal Adapter, and for 3Com Telephones. You might find that the NBX
system does not assign extension numbers to ports on an Analog
Terminal Card in the order of the MAC addresses. The example in
Table 22 shows that the four ports were discovered in the order 1, 2, 3, 4
based on MAC address order, but the extensions were assigned in the
order 1, 2, 4, 3. If you connect telephones, Analog Terminal Adapters,
and Analog Terminal Cards before you enable the Auto Discover feature,
there could be gaps between the extensions assigned to ATC ports.
Table 22 shows that ports 1 and 2 were assigned extensions 1001 and
1002, respectively. By examining the information on the ATA Tab
(see Figure 43), you can verify that extensions 1003 and 1004 have been
assigned to 3Com Telephones and extension 1005 was assigned to an
Analog Terminal Adapter.
After you auto discover an Analog Terminal Card, you can use the status
lights to help determine if the card has been properly discovered.
3C10117 Analog Terminal Card
Whether or not you connect an analog telephone to one of the ports, the
S2 light blinks on briefly approximately every 10 seconds
If you connect an analog telephone or fax machine to one of the ports,
the S1 light turns on when the telephone is off hook and turns off when
it is on hook. The S2 light turns on when a call is connected on this port.
