Configuring Port Parameters
You must configure the VG248 ports using Cisco CallManager. Each of the ports
are entered in the Cisco CallManager database as a “VGC” phone type. See the
“Configuring the VG248 Analog Ports” section on page 4-3
for details.
These sections provide details of the parameters that you configure on a per port
basis:
•
Enabling a Specific Port, page 3-9
•
Enabling Caller ID, page 3-11
•
Choosing Message Waiting Indicator Type, page 3-11
•
Enabling Disconnect Supervision, page 3-12
•
Setting the Output Gain, page 3-13
•
Setting the Input Gain, page 3-14
Although these procedures describe how to make changes to individual ports, you
can configure a range of ports to use the same settings. To do this, choose
Telephony > Port specific parameters, and then press R on the keyboard. Then
enter a port range (such as 1-10, or 1, 2,3) and apply changes to all of those ports
at once.
Enabling a Specific Port
By enabling a specific port on the VG248, you are allowing it to be registered with
Cisco CallManager. When used in conjunction with the port enable policy (see
the
“Setting the Port Enable Policy” section on page 3-7
), you can determine
whether an analog phone can simply be plugged into a port connected to the
VG248 and be ready to use.
