Assigning Answering Schedule Tables to Ports or Trunks
Here are some guidelines in figuring out how many
ASTs
you will need, when you assign an
AST
t
o a port or trunk:
●
If you want the Automated Attendant to answer all incoming lines in the same way, you need
only 1 Answering Schedule Table. And, you simply assign it to each port. As a matter of fact,
AST
1 is assigned to each port by default, so you really do not have to do anything.
●
If you want the Automated Attendant to answer some trunks differently than others, you
assign the desired Answering Schedule Table (1-2) to the Trunk Mailbox for the trunk. A
trunk’s
AST
always overrides the port’s
AST
.
For an explanation of
ASTs,
see About Answering Tables on page 20.
Default
AST
1 is assigned to each port. No trunks have an
AST
assignment.
Modifications to Default
NVM-2e can accommodate up to 2 ASTs (1-2).
