Entry Queue Dial-in Number Table
The list of dial-in numbers assigned to the Entry Queue is displayed in the
Dial-in Numbers
table
.
Up to 16 dial-in phone numbers may be assigned to
the Entry Queue.
Dial-in numbers are relevant to ISDN and T1-CAS participants only.
H.323 participants can dial in to an Entry Queue by dialing the Network Service
Prefix and the Numeric ID or Name of the Entry Queue using the following
format: [(Prefix)(Entry Queue Numeric ID or Name)].
SIP participants use the Entry Queue URI to connect to the Entry Queue using
the following format: [(Entry Queue Name)@(domain name)].
If no dial-in number is assigned to the Entry Queue, the system assigns a dial-in
number from the dial-in numbers ranges defined in the ISDN Network Service.
The number is assigned only when the Entry Queue definition is saved by
clicking the
OK
button. This dial-in number is displayed in the
Status
pane. For
more information, see Chapter 5, “Dialing-in to a conference” on page 5-4.
