Creating the SLS administration data set on the Branch Gateway

Last Updated : Jul 20, 2020 |

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Branch Gateway.
  2. To administer the name, enter set system name <name>, where <name> is typed inside quotation marks ().

    To remove the administered name, enter set system name, and then rename the Branch Gateway using the set system name <name> command.

    Note:

    Branch Gateway administered name must match the name in the CM administration.

  3. At Branch Gateway command prompt, enter sls to begin entering SLS data.

    The command line prompt changes to (super-sls)# to indicate that you are in SLS data entry mode. Entering exit ends the SLS data entry mode session, and the command line prompt returns to its original state.

  4. If you want to change the maximum allowable IP registrations from the default, enter set max-ip-registrations n, where n is from 1 to 150.
  5. Use the set date-format command to set a date format for the SLS data set.
  6. Use the set ip-codec-set command to select the country-specific G.711 codec set within the SLS data set: g.711mu or g.711a.
  7. Administer the slot configuration information by entering set slot-config <slot-number> <board-type>, where <slot-number> is the slot where the Media Module is located and <board-type> is the Media Module type.
  8. Administer the station information.
  9. Administer DS1 trunks as required.
  10. Administer BRI links as required.
  11. Administer the trunk groups.

    Note that you can add members to the trunk group only after you administer the signaling group information.

  12. Administer the signaling groups.
  13. Administer ARS dial patterns for outgoing calls.
  14. Administer digit treatment for incoming routed calls.
  15. Optionally administer the attendant feature for the purpose of call routing by entering set attendant <access-code> <extension>, where <access-code> specifies the dial access code for the attendant feature, and <extension> specifies the station which serves as the branch office attendant position.

    Incoming trunk calls that have dialed strings that cannot be completely routed, will now be routed by SLS to this attendant position. In addition, stations in the branch office may directly dial the attendant using the <access-code>.

  16. Administer the Feature Access Codes (FACs) by entering set fac <feature> <fac>, where <feature> is one of the following:
    • ars1

    • ars2

    • hold

    • contact-open

    • contact-close

    • contact-pulse

      <fac> is a 1 to 4 digit string that includes the digits 0 through 9, excluding * and # for analog rotary phones. The <fac> string must be unique and must not conflict with station extension numbers and Trunk Access Codes (TACs).

    Examples

    • set fac ars2 *9

    • set fac contact-close 8

    Note:

    The * and # characters are not available on rotary-dial, analog phones.

  17. At the Branch Gateway command prompt, enter exit to leave the sls context.

    The Branch Gateway command prompt reverts to that of the original login.

  18. After all of the SLS features are administered, at the Branch Gateway command prompt enter set sls enable to enable SLS on the Branch Gateway.
    Note:

    If you enabled SLS and then entered additional administration, you must first disable SLS by entering set sls disable, and then re-enable it by entering set sls enable. This will cause the SLS application to resynchronize its administrative database with the Branch Gateway's CLI command database.

  19. At the Branch Gateway command prompt, enter copy running-config startup-config to save the changes.
