System: Data backup. Aastra 800 in Computer Networks One of the outstanding features of the Aastra 800 is the integration of telephony and computer networks. Connect the Aastra 800 via a computer network (LAN) with suitably configured workstations, and the configured users can use its network features from these workstations.
In a single LAN it is possible to use various protocols for the transmission of data. The connection between a workstation computer and the Aastra 800 runs via the IP protocol (also named TCP/IP) used on the Internet. IP can be used together with other protocols (e.g.
6.2.3 Codes for IP Configuration In the event that the IP configuration of the Aastra 800 has to be changed, you can also use a code digit procedure to change these basic settings. Entry can be made from system telephones.
These e-mail accounts are then checked at regular intervals. If there are new e-mails in an e-mail account, and the Aastra 800 has been con- figured for this function, the user specified in the Aastra 800 e-mail account is notified of the new e-mail on his system terminal.
The MoH file must be coded with 8000 Hz, 8 bit mono in accordance with CCITT, A- Law. This coding is required for the Aastra 800 and can be set in the “Sound Recorder” when you save the file under Format (CCITT, A-Law) and Attributes (8000 Hz, 8 bit mono).
The control of the data connections used makes it possible to define exactly the voice and service quality. VoIP telephony over the Internet using the Aastra 800 provides you with the fol- lowing options (see also SIP Telephony starting on page 66): ■...
Setting up a DECToverIP network lets you use existing Ethernet cabling to set up a DECT network. The special DECT base stations designed for this purpose, can be handled using Aastra 800’s Web interface (see DECT over IP® starting on page 82).
Voice over IP (VoIP) Quick Start 7.1.2 External SIP Line If your Aastra 800 has access to the Internet, you can an easily and quickly set up an SIP line. 1. Request at least one SIP account from an SIP provider.

Calls in a queue are handled by the Aastra 800 in the following order of priority: instant connection, automatic recalls, VIP calls, then other internal and external calls.
Note: As calling fax machines often operate with the “voice” service indicator, you should assign ports for fax machines on the Aastra 800 to a user group without a queue. Queues can be combined with the “call forwarding,” “pickup” and “hunt group”...
11.2 Examples of Use 11.2.1 Enquiry Station for an Operator with Two System Telephones The operator switches all incoming calls and can either work on the Aastra 6775ip (OpenPhone 75 IP) or the mobile terminal, the OpenPhone 27. Configuration ■...
Page 113
OpenPhone 27 is activated by pressing a feature key. Calls which are in the Aastra 6775ip (OpenPhone 75 IP) queue must still be answered on this telephone. New calls are signalled on the mobile OpenPhone 27 or enter its queue, allowing the OpenPhone 27 to be used as a mobile enquiry station.
The enquiry stations switch all incoming calls. Incoming calls are administered in queues. Depending on the number of arriving calls, one to three enquiry stations in this group are manned. The enquiry stations are each equipped with an Aastra 6775ip (OpenPhone 75 IP).
Page 115
Examples of Use queue, the call is removed from the queues of all the other enquiry stations. The display at each enquiry station (Aastra 6775ip (OpenPhone 75 IP)) indicates how full the queue is. If attendants leave the station, they sign off from the hunt group by means of a feature key.
This allows them to have their own trunk lines, which is useful for billing purposes. The Aastra 800 software is used equally by all the com- panies, however. It is possible to configure the Aastra 800 for each company and define the extent to which the features of the system may be used.
(see Allocating Routing Codes starting on page 117). 6. An exchange must be set up for each company so that the Aastra 800 can cor- rectly process statuses in which a call should be routed to the exchange (see Configuring the Company Exchange starting on page 118).
12.1.2 Configuring and Managing Companies Up to five companies can be configured in the Aastra 800. By default, one company with the name “Company 1” is predefined. All configuration settings, e.g. in the user groups or in the bundle configuration, apply to this predefined default company if not other company has been selected.
(the users) via the lines of a certain bundle of the Aastra 800, each of the available bundles must be assigned to one of the companies. This is necessary to be able to transfer incoming external calls to the correct company exchange in cases where the called internal subscriber cannot be reached (“Connection to Operator”), for example.
