Copy Options for Lines/Trunks 4
Use this procedure to copy options assigned to loop-start or ground-start trunks,
Tie trunks, or DID trunks. Note that many of these options apply to Hybrid/PBX
systems only. The following information is copied for each line/trunk type :
■Loop-Start or Ground-Start Trunks (including those emulated on T1
facilities). Toll type, signaling type, and trunk pool assignment (Hybrid/PBX
only).
■Tie Trunks. Direction, Tie trunk type, E&M signal, dial mode, dial tone,
answer supervision time, disconnect time, and trunk pool assignment
(Hybrid/PBX only).
■DID Trunks (Hybrid/PBX only). Block assignment and disconnect time.
To find out whether there is an optional feature assigned that you would like to
copy, use Inspct from the system programming console or on a PC.
NOTES:
1. You can copy options to a block of lines/trunks only if they are all the
same type (loop-start, ground-start, Tie, or DID). If you attempt to copy
assignments and there is a mismatch in line/trunk type, information is
copied to that point only. You receive no error message.
2. In Release 6.0 and later systems, options cannot be copied from private
lines/trunks.
3. If you are copying options to a block of lines/trunks, they mus t be
sequentially numbered.
4. If the block you are copying to includes an invalid line/trunk type, the
copying process stops at the invalid type. Only the lines/trunks that were
copied to before the invalid type was found are copied successfully.
5. If you are copying assignments to a block of lines/trunks and one of the
lines or trunks is in use, you see the message
on your display. The copying for the rest of the lines/trunks in the block is
delayed until the busy line/trunk becomes idle. If you exit without waiting
for the copying to complete, the copying done up to that point is not
canceled.
