Changing configuration sets for Extension to Cellular

Last Updated : Oct 03, 2016 |

Procedure

  1. Enter change off-pbx-telephone configuration-set n, where n is the number that you assign to a configuration set.
  2. In the Configuration Set Description field, type in a description of the configuration set, up to 20 characters.
  3. Type the Calling Number style as either network or pbx.

    The Calling Number Style field determines the caller ID format for calls from a local switch extension to an Extension to Cellular cell phone.

  4. Type an entry in the CDR for Origination field to determine the CDR report format that Communication Manager will use for the originator of an incoming call.

    The CDR report provides the calling party number of the incoming calls. If you select the extension option, the internal Extended Access extension is reported as the calling party. If you select the phone number option, the reports displays the 10-digit cell phone as the calling party number. If you use the none option, there will be no originating CDR record.

  5. Enter y or n for the Fast Connect on Origination field to determine whether additional processing occurs on the switch before connecting a call.

    You can use this option to check the capabilities provided by the cell phone provider. Currently, Avaya recommends the default value of n. The downside of Fast Connect is that there is no indication to the caller of when the far-end has actually answered. The billing of the call starts immediately after the call setup. If billing is involved, then do not select the Fast Connect option. However, all digits required to route the call must be passed in the SETUP message. DECT XMOBILE stations always use Fast Connect. Whereas, PHS XMOBILE and EC500 XMOBILE/OPTIM stations never use Fast Connect. SIP phones do not block blind conference if the Fast Connect option is enabled.

  6. Verify that the default dtmf is the entry for the Post Connect Dialing Options field.

    The Post Connect Dialing Options field determines whether additional capabilities are available for incoming ISDN trunk calls that are mapped into Extension to Cellular stations. These capabilities are beyond standard ISDN dialing.

  7. Verify that the Calling Number Verification field is set to the default value y.
    Important:

    The default value y restricts incoming calls to network provided or user provided verified and passed calling numbers. When the switch is part of a private network and you are not screening calling numbers, change the field to n.

  8. In the Confirmed Answer field, enter y or n.

    If y, set the timeout period for waiting for user input of a digit. When set to y, a digit must be received within the time out period, or the call is not treated as answered. The default time out period is 10 seconds.

  9. In the Call Appearance Selection for Origination field, enter primary-first if you want to select regular call appearance first for origination or enter first-available if you don’t care whether a regular or bridged appearance is selected for origination.
  10. In the Use Shared Voice Connections field, enter y if you want to share a single trunk for a cell phone call and a PBX call.

    You can use shared voice connection option only with the FMC applications such as PBFMC, PVFMC, and SPFMC.

  11. In the Apply Ringback Upon Receipt of field, enter Call-Proceeding to configure Communication Manager to send the ringback tone to the caller immediately or enter Alert to configure Communication Manager to wait for the ALERT message from the network before sending the ringback tone to the caller.
  12. Select Enter to save your changes.
  13. Use the change off-pbx-telephone configuration-set n command as needed to change additional configuration sets.
