Upgrading from Extension to Cellular Version 3

Last Updated : Aug 09, 2021 |

About this task

The following process is to change the Extension to Cellular configuration to work without the loopback trunks. Let us eliminate the loopback connections for station 5462.

Eliminating the loopback trunks is optional and must be accompanied by changing the Mobility Trunk Group field on the Station screen to ars.

Procedure

  1. Eliminate the DS1 or IP loopback trunks associated with Extension to Cellular Version 2.0 or 3.0.

    This step includes removing the loopback trunks and signaling groups through switch administration and physically from the switch.

    Loopback trunk configuration can coexist with the Extension to Cellular R4 if you choose to do so. If you decide to eliminate the loopback trunks, the removed equipment can be reused for other trunk solutions. You can change gradually over to a total loopback elimination. If you decide to have the loopback and non loopback configurations coexist, you must remember there are capacity restrictions when using the DS1.

  2. Enter change station n, where n is the extension of an Extension to Cellular-enabled station.
  3. In the Mobility Trunk Group field, type ars.

    The field must be changed to ars for loopback elimination.

  4. Press Enter to save your changes.

    If the Dial Prefix field contains the ars Feature Access Code, remove the prefix.
