Overview With Abbreviated Dialing, IP Phone users in the same geographic location,
either the main office or the Branch Office, can call one another using a
DN shorter than the configured DN.
This feature is implemented with a pretranslation group assigned to every
telephone. All IP Phones in the same bandwidth management zone use the
same pretranslation group. TDM telephones, which share the same dialing
plan with IP Phones in a bandwidth management zone, also use the same
pretranslation group.The pretranslation groupassignment is more easily
and quickly done using the TM 3.01 global change functionality.
Virtual Office Login always requires that the full DN be entered. In other
words,a user cannot use the abbreviated DN to Virtual Login to an IP Phone.
The called telephone display alwaysshows the full-length DN of the calling
party.

Recommended configuration

Nortel recommends the following configuration of Abbreviated Dialing in
the main office and branch offices.
The numbering plan at both the main office and Branch Office must
have six or sevendigits, including IP Phones in Local Mode.
All MG 1000B IP Phones are in a different bandwidth management zone
than the main office IP Phones.
