Polycom OneDial™ simplifies placing videoconferencing calls by negotiating bandwidths,

Configuring the System for Use on a Private Network
The Private Network ISDN Number provides a second number that can be used to
call the system. If an organization’s PBX has two different lines coming from
different network providers, the Private Network Number identifies the
additional lines needed after the first line connects.
The Private Network Number can also signal the PBX to route additional calls
through the PBX instead of going outside the PBX through the trunk line.
Some PBX systems signal the same called number regardless of the number used to call
an endpoint. In this situation, the private number method may not work.
To configure the system for a Private Network:
1. Go to System Info > Admin Setup > LAN/H.323 > Global Address > Private
Net.
2. Enter the Private Network Numbers for each line.
Setting Description
Primary Call Type
Choice
Secondary call
Type Choice
Allows you to specify how to place calls - IP or ISDN.
For Directory entries containing both IP and ISDN numbers, the
system places the type of call you have specified as the primary
call type. You can specify a call type to use when the primary call
type is not available, or you can specify None if you wish users to
place calls only by IP or only by ISDN.
If you choose Manual for the primary call type, the system
prompts the user to choose a call type.
