Trunk Groups

For incoming trunk groups, you must:

●Create one incoming trunk group per Polycom MGC system.

●Set the following parameters:

-Direction to incoming.

-Service Type to tie.

-Disconnect Supervision - In? to y to allow Polycom MGC-Avaya Communication Manager-Polycom MGC calls (that is, trunks calling trunks).

For outgoing trunk groups, you must:

●Create one “primary” outgoing trunk group for the “primary” Polycom MGC board (IP1).

●Set the following parameters:

-Direction to outgoing.

-Service Type to tie.

-You may set Outgoing Display to y.

-Send Calling Number to y. This allows participant matching in the Polycom MGC.

-Format to private.

●If you want board redundancy, create one “secondary” outgoing trunk group for the other boards (IP2.n) in the Polycom MGC system.
