Creating a Calling Group and Assigning Group Members

If you are using the voice messaging services--Automated Attendant Service (AAS), Call Answer Service (CAS), Voice Messaging Service (VMS,) and Delay Announcement Service (DAS), you must create two MERLIN Messaging System calling groups and assign group members to each calling group. One calling group contains the ports used for AAS, CAS, and VMS. The other calling group contains the ports used for the DAS. If you are using DAS only, you need to create only one MERLIN Messaging System calling group.

Note:

DAS is available in Release 2.5 or later. If you have a release prior to Release 2.5, create only one calling group containing ports for AAS, CAS, and VMS. If you are using one or more V/D ports to provide DAS, choose ports beginning with the lowest port number, Port 1. It is recommended that a single port does not provide both voice messaging services and DAS.
