Managing MultiMedia Calling
To establish coverage from a MASI terminal to another MMCX terminal or Avaya
Communication Manager station:
1. Use the MMCX user interface to enter the desired extension as the coverage point for the
MASI terminal. You cannot use Avaya Communication Manager coverage administration for
MASI terminals.
Step 11 — Verify administration
You should make test calls from Avaya Communication Manager to MMCX, to ensure that you
can indeed place and receive calls.
Call an unattended MASI terminal. Verify that the call goes to AUDIX. Retrieve the call from the
MASI terminal. Verify that all works as expected.
MASI command permissions
If you are the super-user for your system, you can restrict other administrative logins from
changing MASI administration. To do this, use the change permissions (login-ID)
command. Enter y in the Additional Restrictions field, then move to the Restricted Object
List page of the screen.
You may restrict the following MASI-related objects:
masi-path-parameters
●
masi-terminal
●
masi-trunk-group
●
masi-tsc
●
Detailed description of features
AAR/ARS
MMCX can take advantage of advanced routing features for voice-only calls to the public
switched telephone network (PSTN) or an Avaya private network. Users must enter the AAR/
ARS access code before the rest of the dialed digits. MASI will route the call over the
Communication Manager private network (AAR) or the public network (ARS), based on digits
supplied by the MMCX user.
Routing patterns must contain only trunk groups that actually terminate to Avaya
Communication Manager. Calls from one MMCX to another MMCX do not use AAR/ARS.
Authorization codes are not supported.
