 | 
| password protection | To insure that unauthorized people do not retrieve your voice mail, barge into | 
| 
 | your conversations, etc., many of the advanced features of the NexPath Tele- | 
| 
 | phony Server require that you enter a numerical password to identify yourself to | 
| 
 | the system before the feature can be accessed. | 
| physical lines | The actual telephone lines connected to the NexPath Telephony Server. | 
| pickup groups | See ring groups below. | 
| ring cadence | Extensions can be programmed to ring with any of six different ringing patterns, | 
| 
 | or cadences. Extensions can also be programmed to ring differently depending | 
| 
 | on whether the call is an inside call or a call from an outside line. | 
| ring groups | Groups of physical telephone lines can be assigned to a ring group, also called a | 
| 
 | pickup group. This function is normally used so that a ringing phone can be | 
| 
 | picked up from another  | 
| 
 | * 0 , followed by a single digit ring group number. | 
| 
 | An extension can also be assigned to a ring group, so that when the extension is | 
| 
 | dialed, the group of phones will ring. The first extension picked up in the group | 
| 
 | of ringing phones will get the call. | 
| 
 | Note that ring groups are not the same as call distribution groups. See call distri- | 
| 
 | bution group above for the definition of a call distribution group. | 
| Short Name | This is the name that is recorded in a voice mai box, so that when a voice mail | 
| 
 | message is copied to another mail box, this name recording is prepended to the | 
| 
 | message to identify who it is from. Also, the short name is used to identify all | 
| 
 | extensions that forward to the voice mail box where it is recorded, to identify the | 
| 
 | extensions in the dial by name  | 
| system administrator | This is the person in charge of administering the system, that is, adding or remov- | 
| 
 | ing users, assigning users extension numbers and passwords, and changing other | 
| 
 | system parameters as needed. Please refer to the NexPath Telephony Server Sys- | 
| 
 | tem Administration Guide for more details on what the system administrator can | 
| 
 | and cannot do. |
