Choose the appropriate settings:
•
Definity MWI ON pre-extension dial string
•
Definity MWI OFF pre-extension dial string
Enter the appropriate values obtained from the Octel and Definity systems.
The dialing sequence can also optionally include a comma (,) to indicate a pause
of 200 milliseconds (ms). These are additive, so a series of four commas (,,,,) is
an 800 ms pause. Each pause causes the DPA 7630 to wait an additional 200 ms
while receiving MWI commands from the Octel system, and it also creates a 200
ms delay while sending the command on to the PBX.
For example, if you enter #40,,,,, as the dialing sequence, the DPA 7630 waits an
additional second for MWI commands. The DPA 7630 also inserts a 1 second
pause when dialing the command to the PBX (after dialing #40 and before dialing
the extension number).
Restart the DPA 7630.
The disable policy is designed to prevent the Octel system from assuming a port
is up when there is not an active Cisco CallManager or PBX connection.
Changing this policy can prevent the Octel system from attempting outgoing calls
or setting MWIs. This might be useful if you have configured your system for
redundancy. For example, if the Octel MWI lines are distributed between two
DPA 7630 systems and the first DPA 7630 loses its connection to
Cisco CallManager, the ports connecting to the first DPA 7630 are disabled, and
the Octel system only sends MWIs to the second DPA.
The Cisco CallManager connection is considered lost if the DPA 7630 recognizes
that it is down and has been down for 60 seconds.
From the main menu, choose Configure.
Choose Octel/Definity integration.
Choose Octel connection disable policy.
