Server Administration

The system values relevant to the Enhanced Dialing Feature are:

●PHNCC - the media server’s international country code.

For example, “1” for the United States, “44” for the United Kingdom, etc.

●PHNDPLENGTH - the length of the dial plan on the media server.

●PHNIC - the digits the media server dials to access public network international trunks. For example, “011” for the United States.

●PHNLD - the digit dialed to access public network long distance trunks on the media server.

●PHNLDLENGTH - the maximum length, in digits, of the national telephone number for the country in which the Avaya Media Server is located.

●PHNOL - the character(s) dialed to access public network local trunks on the media server.

Example: A corporate voice network has a 4-digit dialing plan. The corporate WML Web site lists a 4-digit telephone number as a link on the Human Resources page. A 4620 user selects that link. The 4620 deduces the telephone number is part of the corporate network because the telephone number’s length is the same as the corporate dialing plan. The telephone dials the number without further processing.

Example: A user notes a Web site contains an international telephone number that needs to be called, and presses “Call.” The 4630/4630SW determines the number to be called is from another country code. The telephone then prepends the rest of the telephone number with PHNOL to get an outside line + PHNIC to get an international trunk. The 4630/4630SW then dials normally, with the Avaya Media Server routing the call appropriately.

Note:

The Enhanced Local Dialing algorithm requires that telephone numbers be presented in a standard format. The standard format depends on how you administer the parameters indicated in Table 12. The algorithm also assumes that international telephone numbers are identified as such in, for example, WML Web sites. This is indicated by preceding that type of number with a plus (+) sign, and a space or some non-digit character following the country code.

Setting the Date and Time on SIP IP Telephones

SIP IP telephones need a source of date and time information. This typically comes from a network time server running the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP). The telephones use several administrative parameters for this functionality. The parameter SNTPSRVR defines the server’s IP address(es). GMTOFFSET defines the offset from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). DSTSTART and DSTSTOP define the start and end of Daylight Savings Time, respectively. DSTOFFSET defines the Daylight Savings Time offset from Standard Time. Finally, DATETIMEFORMAT defines the format of the date and time display. See Table 10 for definitions and valid values for SIP Date and Time parameters.
