8.2 Information about Using One-look Network
This section gives an overview of using the PBX in One-look networks.
8.2.1 One-Look Network with NS-Net
*1
Multiple KX-NS series PBXs can be connected as a distributed networked system using a private IP network.
The networked system is called a One-look network. In a One-look network, a KX-NS1000 PBX serves as the
Master unit, which controls the other PBXs, known as Slave units.
The Slave units share setup information and resources controlled by the Master unit. A One-look network is
useful when the network will consist only of KX-NS series PBXs and a private IP network is feasible.
A considerable amount of setup is done automatically by the PBXs, so setup and maintenance is much simpler
than other types of networks, such as a TIE line network. All units can be programmed from one location.
Resource sharing allows users to interact as if they were all connected to one PBX, which eliminates the need
to manage information such as PBX access codes.
*1 NS-Net is a network protocol only used for Panasonic products.
