What is an MSN?
MSN = Multiple Subscriber Number. You can apply for up to ten different telephone
numbers for one multiple ISDN connection. An MSN is one of the phone numbers
assigned to you
without an area code
.
You telephone uses the MSN entirely as you require. The following differentiation is
made:
◆
Receive MSN:
Phone numbers you may be called on. You can assign the receive
MSN's to specific internal users (terminals)(page 113). Incoming calls are only for-
warded to the terminals to which the relevant MSN has been assigned. Terminals
are, for instance, handsets or answering machines.
◆
Send MSN:
Phone numbers that are identified to the person you are calling. The net-
work operator calculates charges based on the send MSN's. You can assign a fixed
send MSN to each internal user (page 114).
Potential internal parties:
Depending on the scope of function of the base, you can assign internal phone numbers
to the following internal users. The operating instructions for the base will indicate
which internal phone numbers are available.
