MAS - OAN - Addressing Scheme Dialog Box

Use the Addressing Scheme dialog box to configure an addressing scheme for a remote Octel Analog Networking node. The Prefix, Additional Digits and Mailbox Length are then added to the Addressing scheme list in the Remote Node Properties dialog box. See MAS - OAN - Remote Node Properties Dialog Box.

Opening the Addressing Scheme dialog box

The Addressing Scheme dialog box is launched from the Remote Node Properties dialog box.

Click

to add a new scheme to the Addressing scheme list.

Double-click on an existing scheme in the Addressing scheme list to edit the scheme.

To configure the Remote Node Properties, complete the following fields:

Prefix Enter the prefix for the remote Octel Analog Networking node. A prefix is a number used to specify a remote Octel Analog Networking node when addressing messages.

Additional Digits Enter the number of digits that the subscriber must enter in addition to the prefix to form a complete Octel Analog Networking address.

As an Octel Analog Networking address consists of the prefix followed by the mailbox number, additional digits are normally the same as the Mailbox Length.

For example: 1234 (prefix) + 6002 (mailbox number) = 12346002 (Octel Analog Networking address)

In this example, enter 4 in Additional Digits, because 4 digits (6002) must be added to the prefix to form an Octel Analog Networking address.

In some cases, however, the prefix includes some digits of the mailbox number.

For example: 1234 (prefix) + 4002 (mailbox number) = 1234002 (Octel Analog Networking address)

In this example, enter 3 in Additional Digits (for the digits 002), because the 4 overlaps.

For more information on Octel Analog Networking addressing schemes, see the Avaya Modular Messaging Concepts and Planning Guide.

Mailbox Length Enter the number of digits in mailboxes as configured on the remote system.
