Managing Telephones
5. Enter modem in the second Alias Set Type field.
You can call the alias set anything you like. Once you define the alias, you can use the alias
set in the Type field on the Station screen.
6. Enter 2500 in the second Supported Set Type field.
Entering 2500 indicates to the system that these models are basic analog devices.
7. Press Enter to save your changes.
Now you can follow the instructions for adding a new telephone (or adding a fax or modem).
Avaya Communication Manager now recognizes the new type (6220 or modem) that you enter
in the Type field.
Be sure to see your telephone's manual for instructions on how to set feature buttons and call
appearance buttons. Note that if you need to use an alias for a telephone, you might not be able
to take advantage of all the features of the new telephone.

Customizing Your telephone

This section provides recommendations for setting up or enhancing your personal telephone.
You need a telephone that is powerful enough to allow you to use all the features you might give
to other employees. You might want to add feature buttons that allow you to monitor or test the
system, so that you can troubleshoot the system from your telephone.
It will be much easier to monitor and test your system if you have a telephone with:
a large multi-button display (such as 8434D or 8410D)
●
a class of service (cos) that has console permissions
●
the following feature buttons
●
- ACA and Security Violations (assign to lamp buttons)
- Busy verify
- Cover message retrieval button
- Major/minor alarm buttons
- Trunk ID buttons
- Verify button
Once you select a telephone, you'll want to determine if you want to place this telephone at your
desk or in the server room. If the telephone is in the server room (near the system
administration terminal), you can quickly add or remove feature buttons to test features and
facilities. You might decide that you want a telephone at both your desk and in the server room
— it's up to you.
