13. AUDIX System Administration

_______________________________________________________________________________________

_

Before you can administer an AUDIX system for networking, the ACC or ACCE must be installed. If not done already, install the AUDIX Communications Controller (ACC or ACCE) circuit pack and make sure it is administered using the maintenance : network and the system : translation : network port form. form. Then use this chapter to administer the AUDIX system in association with one or more other AUDIX systems for networking.

NOTE

If the network includes R1V5 and/or R1V6 and/or R1V7 systems along with R1V3 and/or R1V4 systems, the Sending Restrictions feature on any R1V5 or later system must be turned off.

REMOTE UPDATES

Each AUDIX system in a network has its own data base with information on both local subscribers and remote subscribers. The system administrator may use the remote updates feature to make certain that every AUDIX data base has the same information for all subscribers across the network. When an AUDIX system sends remote update information for a subscriber to another system, it sends the voiced name, ASCII name, extension, and (for R1V5 and later systems) the community ID.

The remote updates will only be sent for subscribers whose extension numbers fall within the extension ranges administered on the system : translation : machine : audix/amis/call delivery form. For example, AUDIX A may be administered with an address range from 3000 to 3999. If AUDIX B’s remote profile for AUDIX A only lists a subset of this range (such as extensions 3000 to 3100), AUDIX B will only request partial or complete updates for extensions 3000 to 3100 from AUDIX A.

Partial Updates

The AUDIX systems in the network can be administered so partial updates happen automatically. If all systems in the network are so administered, any time a subscriber profile is added, deleted, or modified from a system in the network, that system will automatically notify all other systems in the network of the change.
