Multiline Appearance/Keyset
A phone that has more than one line associated to it, and therefore works as a multiline phone,
is referred to as "keyset". The lines are assigned to the phone by setting up a separate line key
for each line.
The multiline appearance feature allows for multiple lines to be assigned to a keyset and for a
line to be assigned to multiple keysets. This feature requires configuration in OpenScape Voice
and in the telephone, and is particularly useful for executive-assistant arrangements.
For each keyset, a Primary Line/Main DN is required. The primary line is the dialing number for
that keyset.
There are two types of line:
•
Private line
: A line that appears on only one keyset.
•
Shared line
: A line that is shared between keysets.
3.9.1
Line key configuration
A line corresponds to a SIP address of record (AoR), which can have a form similar to an E-
mail address, or can be a phone number. It is defined by the
Address
parameter. For registra-
tion of the line, a corresponding entry must exist on the SIP server resp. the SIP registrar
server.
A label can be assigned to the line key by setting its
Key label
.
Every keyset must necessarily have a line key for the primary line. To configure the key of the
primary line, set
Primary line
to "true".

This feature is available only on OpenStage 15, OpenStage 40 and OpenStage 60/
80 phones.
>
In order to configure the phone as a keyset, it is required to
•
use an outbound proxy (System > SIP interface > Outbound proxy, see
Section 3.5.7.1, “Outbound Proxy”), and
•
set the server type to "OS Voice" (System > Registration > Server type, see
Section 3.5.6, “SIP Registration”).
>
It is recommended to configure primary lines only on keys 1 to 6, or 1 to 5, if a shift
key is needed. This ensures that the lines are still accessible when the user migrates
to a different phone with fewer keys via the mobility feature.
