242 Understanding how the system identifies lines
N0008589 3.3
Copying line programming
The Copy command allows you to duplicate programming for a line and apply it to another line.
You cannot copy programming between lines on different types of media bay modules. The
Received number of a target line is a unique number and cannot be copied.
When you copy data from a physical trunk to a target line (or the other way around), only the data
in common is copied. For example, copying a target line to a T1 E&M trunk copies only the Line
data settings because there are no Trunk data settings for a target line.
Follow these steps to copy a line setting to a single line.
1
Click on the keys beside Services, Telephony Services, Lines, Physical Lines,
Enabled Lines .
2
Click the line number from which you want to copy settings.
3 Choose the subheading for the information that you want to copy:
Trunk/Line data , Restrictions , or Telco features .
4 From the Edit menu, click Copy .
5
In the Copy to box, type the line number where you want to copy the settings.
6 Click the OK button.
Determining which lines you need to program
Under Lines , note that line types are divided into three headings. The fourth heading contains all
line numbers.
VoIP lines (require keycode)
Voice over IP (VoIP) lines are signaling channel s that simulate how CO lines work. However,
VoIP lines transmit data to the IP network over a LAN or WAN rather than over physical lines.
Once the VoIP trunks are set up, you can assign them to line pools, and program their behavior in
the same way you would PRI lines.
VoIP lines use line numbers 001 to 060. These line records appear under Services, Telephony
Services, Lines, VoIP Lines . To access VoIP lines, you need to enter software keycode s . Each
keycode supports a specific number of lines. If you are using both SIP and H.323 trunks, the H.323
trunks start numbering up from 001, and the SIP trunks start numbering down from 060. No entries
appear in the
Enabled VoIP lines field until you complete the IP Trunks Settings field, which
displays when you click on IP Trunks under Services , IP Telephony .
VoIP trunks should be configured to use a single line pool, per trunk type. Do not mix other trunk
types on the same line pool. The VoIP line pools are assigned to routes, which, in turn, are
configured with destination codes that route calls to the designated remote gateways of other
