Lines field cross-reference chart
The following table provides a quick cross reference that shows common line fields, noted by
trunk type.

Trunk types Attribute Value Description
All Line type Public
Private to:
Pool A to O,
PRI A to PRI-F
Define how the line is used in relation to other lines in the
system.
• Public line: can be accessed by more than one telephone.
• Private line: can be assigned only to one telephone and
the prime telephone for that line. Enter the internal
number of the telephone.
• Pool A - O (digital lines and VoIP trunks/PRI-A to PRI-F
(PRI and BRI lines): assigns the line to one of the line
pools. If a line is assigned to a line pool, but is not
assigned to any telephone, that line is available only for
outgoing calls.
PRI line pools must be used in conjunction with routes
and destination codes. target line
s cannot be put into line
pools.

a specific target
line> Specify the digits to make a specific target line ring.
• A received number cannot be the same as, or be the start
digits, of a line pool access code, a destination code, the
DISA DN or the Auto DN.
• If you are configuring auto-answer BRI trunks to map to
target lines, the received number should be the same as
the Network DN supplied by your service provider. The
call will be directed to the prime telephone for the
incoming line if the Network DN is not used.
For further information, refer to “Received #” on page 271 .
Target lines
DASS2 If busy To Prime
Busy Tone
Define whether a caller receives a busy tone or the call
forwards to the prime telephone when the target line is busy.
Busy tone only works for PRI trunks.
All Prime set DN:
None
Assign a telephone to provide backup answering for calls on
the line. For an Auto Answer line, calls are redirected if the
received number is invalid or the target line is busy, and if the
If busy parameter is set To prime .
Each line can be assigned only one prime telephone.
All Distinct rings
in use read-only This field shows the Distinct Ring Patterns that have already
been assigned to at least one line.
