Nortel Networks NN43011-110 Meridian Mail, Set-Based Administration, Multiple-terminal access

28Description and features

Meridian Mail

Meridian Mail comes preconfigured with preprogrammed extensions for mailboxes. If the numbering plan is being modified, then the mailboxes can be changed from any TTY used for system administration.

Set-Based Administration

The Set-Based Administration feature simplifies system installation and administration by enabling a telephone to perform several administrative and maintenance procedures. Use the Set-Based Administration feature to perform tasks such as changing data for specific features related to telephones or changing Calling Party Name Display on a telephone.

For more information about Set-Based Administration, refer to Set-Based Administration (NN43001-603).

Multiple-terminal access

Small Systems allow access to up to five users for logging in, loading, and executing overlays simultaneously. For example, if you have Expansion Cabinets, users can access the system through the Main or Expansion Cabinets at the same time.

Three SDI ports are provided on the main SSC card, while each Expansion can be accessed through the three SDI ports on the SSC card of each IP Expansion or the single SDI port available on the Fiber Receiver card of each Fiber Expansion.

The advantage of multiple-terminal access is that it allows for more efficient programming and maintenance of the system, especially when system components are located up to 3 km (1.8 mi) apart.

Database Archive feature

The Software Installation program allows the archiving of databases that you can subsequently use to load a customer site. This feature allows you to configure multiple databases in an off-site lab environment. The Database Archive feature also allows you to save databases on a PC Card until the databases are required. You can load the database into the system using the PC Card.

The off-site programming of databases is subject to all security keycode restrictions. The off-site system must either use the security device that will be installed in the system at the customer site, or have its own keycodes for the feature set.
