This step is mandatory if you are adding a new PBX Line and the Number status of the parent PBX is set to Normal, Ported to, or Non-geographic. Otherwise there are no fields to fill in and you can ignore this step.
Enter the following information.
Parameter |
Description |
Configured SIP Binding | This field appears only if the Call Agent signaling type field on the PBX object is set to SIP. Specifies the configured SIP binding that this PBX Line uses to connect to the NE. To specify a configured SIP binding, click on the search button at the end of the field to select from a list of configured SIP bindings for which the Usage field is set to Subscriber. As a short-cut to select the Configured SIP Binding, you can type match details into the field and click on the search button to select from a list of items that match these details. Match details can be a text string, a wildcard string such as B*, or a range such as CA-FL. |
Gateway | The Trunk / Access Gateway or Subscriber Gateway that owns the Access Device that this line uses to connect to the NE. This field appears only if Call Agent signaling type is set to Analog line/T1 CAS. Click on the search button at the end of the field to choose from access devices on Trunk / Access Gateways or access devices on Subscriber Gateways. Then select from the displayed list of gateways of the specified type. As a short-cut to select the gateway, you can type match details into the field and click on the search button to select from a list of items that match these details. Match details can be a text string, a wildcard string such as B*, or a range such as CA-FL. If the task you are using has already added access hardware and is now adding a new subscriber to use this hardware, this field is read-only. |
Access Device | The Access Device that this line uses to connect to the NE. This field appears only if Call Agent signaling type is set to Analog line/T1 CAS. Click on the search button at the end of the field to choose from Access Devices on the gateway specified in the Gateway field. If the gateway contains only one Access Device, this device is selected automatically and there is no need to change it. As a short-cut to select the Access Device, you can type match details into the field and click on the search button to select from a list of items that match these details. Match details can be a text string, a wildcard string such as B*, or a range such as CA-FL. If the task you are using has already added access hardware and is now adding a new subscriber to use this hardware, this field is read-only. |
Access Line number | This field appears only if the Number status field on the PBX object is set to Normal, Ported to, or Non-geographic and the Call Agent signaling type field on the PBX object is set to Analog line/T1 CAS. The Access Line number on the specified Access Device that this line uses. Either type in the number (which must not match the access line number used by any other subscriber on this access device), or click on the ellipsis symbol at the end of the field to select from the list of numbers not currently in use.
The highest line number that you can specify depends on the access device type: for an IAD it is the number of voice ports configured, for an IDT Port it is 2048, and for other devices it is a configured parameter on the access device.
If you click on the ellipsis symbol, the dialog box that appears offers 'manual selection' or 'automatic selection'.
|
ISDN Interface | The ISDN Primary Rate Interface that this subscriber uses to connect to the NE. This field appears, and must be supplied, only if the Call Agent signaling type field on the PBX object is set to ISDN PRI. Select from the displayed list of ISDN Primary Rate Interfaces that have Usage set to Access (trunk PRIs cannot be used for subscriber access). As a short-cut to select the ISDN PRI, you can type match details into the field and click on the search button to select from a list of items that match these details. If there are more than 200 PRIs, the list initially shows only the first 200, but you will be able to access any PRI by supplying match details to narrow down the search. Match details can be a text string, a wildcard string such as B*, or a range such as CA-FL. Each PBX Line corresponds to its own ISDN PRI (which can support multiple concurrent telephone calls); you cannot configure two PBX Lines using the same ISDN PRI. If the task you are using has already added access hardware and is now adding a new subscriber to use this hardware, this field is read-only. |
Cascade fault monitoring level on apply | This field appears only if the Call Agent signaling type of the parent PBX is set to ISDN PRI, you have changed the value of the ISDN Interface field, and Fault monitoring level is set to Suppress alarms (level 5). Specifies whether to set Fault monitoring level in the specified ISDN PRI object and its underlying DS1 and TDM Ports to match the value on this PBX and PBX Line. Values:
|
Fault monitoring level | Specifies whether alarms raised for this PBX Line are suppressed, so that the EMS does not display them or send them to SNMP alarm notification destinations. You may want to do this if you expect alarms from this subscriber (for example if the object is currently being provisioned or undergoing maintenance), so that it is easier to see unexpected alarms from other objects. The value shown here is taken from the parent PBX object and you cannot change it. Values:
|
