The channel settings are split into two sub-tabs, E1R2 Edit Channel and Timers.
The Timers tab displays the various timers provided for E1-R2 channels. These should only be adjusted when required to match the line provider's settings.
This tab allows settings for individual channels within the trunk to be adjusted. To edit a channel, select the required channel or channels and click Edit.
The following settings are mergeable: Incoming Group ID, Outgoing Group ID, Admin.
The remaining settings are not mergeable. Changes to these settings require a system reboot.

Channel |
The channel or channels being edited. |
Incoming Group ID |
Default = 0, Range 0 to 99999. The Incoming Group ID to which a line belongs is used to match it to incoming call routes in the system configuration. The matching incoming call route is then used to route incoming calls. The same ID can be used for multiple lines. |
Outgoing Group ID |
Default = 1. Range 0 to 99999. When a short code specifies a number to dial, the IP Office will seize an available line from those available with a matching Outgoing Group ID. In a Server Edition/Select network, the Outgoing Group ID used for lines to a system must be unique within the network. Reserved Group ID Numbers
