However, the SMDI number format allows other digits to be used. For example,
with a SMDI number format of 1234567, the extension number 8989 would
become 1238989. Zeroes are used for any additional required digits. So, if SMDI
number length was 10, the final extension number would be 0001238989. If the
SMDI number length is set to <unpadded>, this setting has no effect.
Step 1
From the main menu, choose Configure.
Step 2
Choose SMDI.
Step 3
Choose SMDI number format.
Step 4
Enter the required number format.
Assigning the Message Desk Number
Typically, a voice mail system is be configured with a single Message Desk
Number (normally 1), and incoming SMDI messages are required to use this value
for proper operation. You need to set the message desk number on the VG248 to
match the value used by the voice mail system.
Before You Begin
If you are using the chained configuration all devices in the SMDI chain should
use the same message desk number.
Step 1
From the main menu, choose Configure.
Step 2
Choose SMDI.
Step 3
Choose Message desk number.
Step 4
Enter the message desk value used by your voice mail system.
Forwarding MWIs to Cisco CallManager
You can specify whether the VG248 sends MWI commands it receives from the
voice mail system to Cisco CallManager.
