Guidelines for port group usage

PC Client group

One or more ports on the MAS must be configured in the PC Client group.

Telephone User Interface group

One or more ports on the MAS must be configured in the Telephone User Interface group.

Octel Analog Networking Incoming group

This is the port or ports associated with the access telephone number for incoming Octel Analog Networking calls.

Important: Ports that receive incoming Octel Analog Networking calls must be in both the Telephone User Interface group and the Octel Analog Networking Incoming group.

Octel Analog Networking Outgoing group

If an MAS is running Octel Analog Networking gateway, one or more ports on the MAS must be configured in the Octel Analog Networking Outgoing group.

Note: We recommend that you configure an Octel Analog Networking Outgoing group on each server in the voice mail domain. This means that if you want to change the server configured for sending messages, you can select any other server in the voice mail domain without having to redefine outgoing Octel Analog Networking ports.

For information on calculating the number of ports required, see the Avaya Modular Messaging Concepts and Planning Guide.
