VMSC - VMD - PBX Configuration Dialog Box (Brooktrout Analog)

This topic describes how to use the PBX Configuration dialog box to configure Private Branch Exchange (PBX) properties, if you are using Brooktrout Analog voice cards.

You can configure the PBX to determine the way in which it communicates with the voice mail domain. The PBX is sometimes referred to as the “switch”.

Use the PBX Configuration dialog box to configure the PBX voice mail system volume, Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) dialing tones, call transfer codes, hangup detection, and intercom paging.


Notes: In the Voice Mail System Configuration window, under the Voice Mail Domain tree, PBXs node, you can add new PBXs types, if necessary. See VMSC - VMD - Add New PBX Dialog Box. For more information on configuring your PBX, see the PBX configuration notes. Configuration notes are available from the Avaya Support Website at http://www.avaya.com/support. Avaya does not support Brooktrout port boards for Modular Messaging systems that run Release 3.0 software, and later. All servers previously running with Brooktrout boards should be migrated to use Dialogic port boards.

Launching the Screen

In the Voice Mail System Configuration window, click the voice mail domain (VMD).

Double-click PBXs. The system expands the node to show all available types of PBX.

Double-click the Brooktrout PBX. The system displays the PBX Configuration dialog box for the selected VMD.
