Trunks to Pools Assignment
3
Use this procedure to create trunk pools (groups of outside lines/trunks connected
to the system). Trunk pools are used to specify preferred routes for Automatic
Route Selection (ARS). In addition, trunk pools enable users to select a line/trunk
by dialing a pool dial-out code or by pressing a single button on the telephone. (A
separate button for each line/trunk is not needed.) Each pool should contain
trunks of the same type (for example, loop- or ground-start or WATS); however,
ground- and loop-start trunks of the same type can be included in the same pool.
Ground-start trunks must be manually assigned. A maximum of 11 trunk pools is
allowed. A trunk can be assigned to only one pool.
Do not mix different service areas of WATS (Wide Area Telecommunications
Service) trunks or FX (Foreign Exchange) lines to different cities. Do not include
both incoming-only and outgoing-only lines/trunks in the same pool.
