Administering Stations

This section refers to Communication Manager (CM) administration on the Switch Administration Terminal (SAT) or by Avaya Site Administration. Administer the following items on the Station form, sample screens of which are provided in Figure 9 through Figure 12. Avaya recommends setting the features covered in this section because they optimize the user interface.

Release 1.5 supports the functionality introduced on Avaya Communication Manager Release 4.0 that allows call server administration of the GROUP parameter on a station-by-station basis. As covered in The GROUP System Value, the GROUP Identifier can be used in conjunction with the 46xxsettings file to allow administration to apply to specific “groups” of telephones. Before Release 1.5, the Group Identifier had to be administered locally on each applicable telephone. As of Release 1.5, the Group Identifier can be administered centrally, and downloaded to each applicable telephone. The GROUP ID parameter is administered on page 3 of the Change Station Form. Once downloaded, the Group Identifier takes effect starting with the next telephone boot-up.

For sample Station Forms, see Appendix C: Sample Administration Forms.
