Configuring Address Table Entries
If you have selected any redirect parameters for a Subscriber Table entry, you
must use the Address Table to designate the alternate subscriber addresses that
will be used by the redirect option(s) you have selected (see
page 4-4 for more
information on redirect options). You can designate up to Þve alternate addresses
for each subscriber table entry.
Each address table entry requires the following values:
Index
The index value assigned to the address table entry. Some redirect options use this
value to determine the order in which alternate addresses are selected. Allowable
values are 1 - 5; values need not be assigned sequentially.
Address
Use the address Þeld to enter the Subscriber ID for any alternate subscribers you
wish to associate with the selected subscriber table entry. These alternate
addresses will be used by any enabled redirect options to determine alternate
paths for call requests directed to the selected subscriber. Note that you cannot
use wildcard characters in this Þeld.
Adding or Modifying Subscriber Table Entries
To add or modify a subscriber table entry:
1. If you wish to modify an existing entry, be sure that entry is highlighted in the
Subscriber Table portion of the window.
2. In the Subscriber Table portion of the window:
a. Enter the appropriate Subscriber ID value. You can use up to 15 digits,
including the question mark (?) and asterisk (*) wildcards. For subscribers
using a Public Data Network (PDN), be sure the ID you assign follows the
code specifications for that network.
b. In the Algorithm field, select the means by which any alternate routing
paths assigned to this subscriber will be selected. (Alternate routing paths
are assigned via the Routing Table, as described in step 3.) If you do not
wish to employ one of the available algorithms, simply accept the default
value and assign only a single routing path.
TIP
Remember, any additions or deletions to the Routing Table or the Address Table actually
modify the selected Subscriber Table entry.
