Create groups of phone users within your organization to configure specific settings. For example, group all Avaya J189 phone users by time zones or designated activities. Assign a unique Group identifier to each group, and set the Group identifier on the phones. The Group identifier number ranges from 0 to 999. The default number is 0.
The GROUP parameter controls the Group identifier. In the 46xxsettings.txt file, combine the IF statement and the GROUP parameter to create groups and provide group-specific configuration.
Sample GROUP configuration:
IF $GROUP SEQ 1 GOTO GROUP_1
IF $GROUP SEQ 2 GOTO GROUP_2
GOTO END
##############################################################
# GROUP_1
########## Add SET Statements for GROUP 1 below ############
##
################ END OF GROUP 1 SETTINGS #####################
GOTO END
##############################################################
# GROUP_2
########## SET Statements for GROUP 2 ############
##
################ END OF GROUP 1 SETTINGS #####################
GOTO END
Use one of the following methods to set the Group identifier:
Important:
After you set the Group identifier to a non-default value, to reset to 0, do one of the following:
-
Reset the phone to default settings.
-
Reset the value at the configuration source. For example, if you set the Group identifier through the web UI, reset the value to 0 in the web UI.
