Features
•
A maximum of 16 PBXs can be connected in a One-look network.
•
A maximum of 8 legacy gateways can be included in a One-look network.
•
The PBXs specified as Slave units use settings provided by the PBX specified as the Master unit, so a
considerable amount of setup is done automatically.
•
Resource sharing allows users to interact as if they were all connected to one PBX, which eliminates the
need to manage information such as PBX access codes.
•
All units in a One-look network can be programmed from one location.
Note
The MASTER indicator LED indicates whether the unit is configured as a Master unit or Slave unit. For
details, refer to "LED Indications".
Conditions
•
A One-look network must consist only of KX-NS1000 PBXs.
•
The sites that will be included in a One-look network must be connected over a private IP network before
setting up the One-look network.
Bandwidth Requirements
When implementing a One-look network, you must ensure that the IP network has enough bandwidth to support
both VoIP communication and One-look network signalling between PBXs. If the amount of bandwidth required
for VoIP communications and signalling is more than the network can accommodate, speech quality will
degrade. In addition, there may be an adverse effect on the performance of other applications (e.g., e-mail or
