The procedure for administering basic telephones connected to interface devices is slightly different from

the procedure for administering voice terminals. Follow the steps below to administer a basic telephone connected

to an Off-Premises Telephone Interface (OPTI), a Basic Telephone and Modem Interface (BTMI), or a Basic Telephone and Modem Interface 2 (BTMI-2).
