Field Valid Input Procedure/Description
Machine Name
From 0 to 10 alphanumeric characters; can include dashes or underscores
The name of the local machine. This field cannot contain a period or begin with a digit. The use of the machine name "fax" is reserved and not permitted. Machine names must be unique.

Examples: "Chicago", "New York," or "Denver_1."

If a machine name includes a space, the name must be enclosed in quotes whenever the name is used in the command line. Example, "New York."
Machine Type
tcpip
The local machine is always tcpip.
Location
Display-only
Displays local.
Voiced Name?
y = yes
n = no
This field contains an n until you record a name for the machine. This field automatically changes to y when you record a name for the machine.
Extension Length
An integer, from 3 through 10
Enter the length of extensions on the local system. The value you enter must match the extension length in your dial plan.
Voice ID
Display-only
Displays a system-assigned identifier that you must use to identify the machine if you decide to record machine names.
Default Community
An integer, from 1 through 15
If you have administered your system to use community sending restrictions, enter the default community number for your subscriber population.
Prefix
From 0 to 21 alphanumeric characters
Prefixes can be used on the local machine, but they limit the functionality and are not recommended.
Start Ext.
A 3-digit to 10-digit string
Enter the starting extensions for the ranges of telephone numbers used on the local system. (Designate a block of switch extensions that can be used at the local system when you are assigning subscribers.)
For example, if your system uses extensions between 2000 and 3000, enter 2000 in the Start Ext. field.
Up to 10 different ranges can be specified to pinpoint the exact set of extension blocks that are used by the local system. The length of the start and end extension must agree with the Extension Length field. For a 5-digit extension, the default is from 00000 to 99999.
End Ext.
A 3-digit to 10-digit string
Enter the ending extensions for the ranges of telephone numbers used on the local system.
For example, if your system uses extensions between 2000 and 3000, enter 3000 in the End Ext. field.
Warnings
Display-only
This field displays a warning when a duplication or overlap of an extension range for another machine is being assigned.
