Trunks 
 


Settings | Lines/networking | Trunks
 
The Trunks mask can be used to view and define basic trunk information and to configure additional, specialized trunk information.
The Trunks tab consists of a table, which is divided into the columns described below. The values of the trunk, SI/Tr, code, route, flags, inactive and type can be altered by selecting individual fields. If you double-click on the field in the Param column and then click Apply, another dialog opens.

10.4.1.1  

Trunks table 
Of the seven fields in this mask, four are system-defined (Trunk, Sl/Tr, Inactive, and Type), two are user-defined (Code and Route), and one provides access to three additional masks (Parameters).

Trunk column  
This is the physical CO trunk that is connected to the communication system. You select the trunk (line) by clicking on the appropriate line number.

SI/Le column  
This field indicates the card type and the slot and port number where a specific trunk is connected to the communication system.

Code column  
This is the number that tells the communication system to seize a specific trunk. It is used to test the trunk or to program a line key.

Route column  
In this column, the trunk is assigned a certain route. These are the same names and numbers of the routes that appear in the Routes field under:
 •   Settings | Lines/networking | Routes, and
 •   Settings | Lines/networking | Routing parameters
The Routes field is used to assign a trunk to a certain route.
Important: If "None" is set in this column for a certain active trunk, system behavior will not be stable. Also, the system can receive a call on this trunk but the call cannot be forwarded.  

Param (Parameter) column  
The dialog boxes for the parameters can be accessed by double-clicking the corresponding field. If a station is being used as a template (see Copy flags), two asterisks (**) appear in this column.

Tabs for trunk parameters  
   -   Trunks | Parameter/ISDN flags
   -   Trunks | Parameter/MSI flags
   -   Trunks | Parameter/General Flags
   -   Trunks | Parameter/Template Editor

Inactive column  
If the line is inactive, an asterisk appears in this field.

Type column  
The trunk type of the selected line is shown here. Inactive lines are designated No Port.
