music source
You can connect a radio or other source of music to the system to provide music for the
Music on Hold and Background Music features. A music source is customer-supplied. The
source is connected through a jack on the MSC on the Business Communications
Manager. You can also set up the IP music feature, which uses sound files from the
internet or downloaded to the Unified Manager.
MWI
If the network line supports message waiting indicators, an external message activates an
indicator on the telephone or provides a tone indicating a message is waiting. If the
telephone has line indicators, and the message comes in over an assigned line, an indicator
appears beside the line, and a call waiting message appears on the telephone display. For
telephones without displays, a tone can be configured, or, if the telephone has one, a MWI
lamp may light.

NI-2
National ISDN is an ISDN protocol that is used by profiles outside of North America. See
also ANSI.

NCRI
Network Call Redirection Information (NCRI) redirects calls across an MCDN network
using Call Forward (all calls, no answer, busy) and Call Transfer features. The call
destination also receives the necessary redirection information. This feature allows the
system to automatically redirect calls from within a Business Communications Manager
system to the mail system, such as Meridian Mail, which resides outside the Business
Communications Manager system on the Meridian 1.
NetBIOS
The Network Basic Input/Output System (NetBIOS) is an interface and upper-level
protocol developed by IBM for use with a proprietary adapter for its PC network product.
NetBIOS provides a standard interface to the lower networking layers. The protocol
provides higher-level programs with access to the network. Windows NT systems use
NetBIOS.
