Extension ID

The physical ID of the extension port. Except for IP extensions, this settings is allocated by the system and is not configurable.

Base Extension

Range = 2 to 15 digits.

This is the directory number of the extension's default associated user if one is required.

• The field can be left blank for digital and analog extensions, creating and extension where users are forced to login but the extension has no default associated user. This option is not supported for IP and CTI extensions.

• Following a restart, the system attempts to log in the user with the same extension number if they are not already logged in elsewhere in the multi-site network. This does not occur if that user is set to Force Login.

• If another user logs onto an extension, when they log out, the extension returns to its default associated user unless they have logged in elsewhere or are set to Force Login.

Phone Password

Default = Blank. Range = 9 to 13 digits.

H.323 and SIP extensions only. This password is entered as part of phone registration with the IP Office system.

Caller Display Type

Default = On.

Controls the presentation of caller display information for analog extensions. For digital and IP extensions, this value is fixed as On. The table below lists the supported options, all others are currently not used and default to matching UK.

Reset Volume after Calls

Default = Off.

Resets the phone's handset volume after each call. This option is supported on Avaya 1400, 1600, 9400, 9500, and 9600 Series phones.

Device Type

This field indicates, the last known type of phone connected to the extension port.

• Analog extension ports always report as Analog Handset since the presence or absence of actual analog phone cannot be detected.

• Digital extension ports report the type of digital phone connected or Unknown digital handset if no phone is detected.

• H.323 extensions report the type of IP phone registered or Unknown H.323 handset if no phone is currently registered as that extension.

• SIP extensions report the type of SIP phone registered or Unknown SIP device if no SIP device is currently registered as that extension. Applications such as Avaya Workplace Client and one-X Mobile Preferred that do not use extension records also display Device type as Unknown SIP device.

For some types of phone, the phone can only report its general type to the system but not the specific model. When that is the case, the field acts as a drop-drown to select a specific model. The value selected is also reported in other applications such as the System Status Application, SNMP, etc.

The drop down list contains all locations that have been defined on the system: Location | Location. See Using Locations.

Associating an extension with a location:

• Allows the display of location based time. Supported on 1100, 1200, 1600, 9600 and J100 Series phones and D100, E129 and B179 telephones.

• For Avaya Wireless DECT extensions, the extension location can be overridden on a call-by-call basis using the location name specified in the base station configuration. Supported with R11.1 FP2 SP2 and higher. This requires you to set Call based Location Information on the IP DECT line and to configure each base station with a location name that matches one in the IP Office configuration.

Disable Speakerphone

Default = Off (Speakerphone enabled).

When selected, disables the fixed SPEAKER button if present on the phone using this extension port. Only supported on Avaya DS, TCM and H.323 IP phones. An audible beep is sounded when a disabled SPEAKER button is pressed. Incoming calls such as pages and intercom calls are still connected but the speech path is not audible until the user goes off-hook using the handset or headset. Similarly calls made or answered using other buttons on the phone are not audible unless the user goes off-hook using the handset or headset. Currently connected calls are not affected by changes to this setting.
