Display operation for Forwarding, redirected transfers, and returned
transfers are generally not supported across a private network. When a
call is transferred and travels over PRI tandem trunks, the display shows
the transferring extension. A forwarded call arriving at a remote extension
displays as though the caller had reached the extension directly.
Follow Me is not supported across a private network.
In Release 6.0 (Hybrid/PBX mode only), Forward is not supported across
a private network.
In Release 6.1 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), Forward is
supported across a private network.
Private-networked trunks cannot be programmed to ring into calling
groups because tandem trunks are dial-in facilities.
When a calling group extension number is included in the non-local dial
plan, you can dial the group just as you would any other extension. Calls
can be transferred to non-local calling groups.
In Release 6.0 systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), all calling group
members, the supervisor, alerts, delay announcement devices, and
overflow receivers must be located on the same system.
In Release 6.1 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), coverage and
overflow can be directed to a calling group that contains a single non-local
extension number.
Calls-in-Queue Alarm buttons and alerts as well as delay announcement
devices work only for calling groups on the local system.
The HFAI button does not work for calls from non-local dial plan
extensions.
You cannot assign a non-local extension for HotLine operation. However,
a HotLine extension can dial a non-local extension.
For incoming calls, the alphanumeric label and/or extension number for
non-local dial plan extensions appears on local system MLX displays
according to display preference programming. This feature works only
when PRI tandem trunks convey the calls.
When operators make intersystem calls, you should relabel the default
label to distinguish operators in different systems.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), the system
supports the display of 5-digit DEFINITY ECS or DEFINITY ProLogix
Solutions extension labels across a private network, although long
DEFINITY ECS or DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions labels may be truncated
on MERLIN LEGEND Communications System MLX displays, which
support a maximum of 7 characters for name labels and 7 characters for
extension number labels.
