Line Text Label

Enter text that identifies this directory number for a line/phone combination.

The default text specifies English

External Phone Number Mask

Enter the phone number (or mask) that is sent for Caller ID information when a call is placed from this line.

You can enter a maximum of 30 numbers and "X" characters. The Xs represent the directory number and must appear at the end of the pattern. For example, if you specify a mask of 972813XXXX, an external call from extension 1234 displays a caller ID number of 9728131234.

Maximum Number of Calls

You can configure up to 200 calls for a line on a device in a cluster, with the limiting factor being the device. As you configure the number of calls for one line, the calls available for another line decrease.

The default specifies 4. If the phone does not allow multiple calls for each line, the default specifies 2.

For CTI route points, you can configure up to 10,000 calls for each port. The default specifies 5000 calls. Use this field in conjunction with the Busy Trigger field.

Busy Trigger

This setting, which works in conjunction with Maximum Number of Calls and Call Forward Busy, determines the maximum number of calls to be presented at the line. If maximum number of calls is set for 50 and the busy trigger is set to 40, then incoming call 41 gets rejected with a busy cause (and will get forwarded if Call Forward Busy is set). If this line is shared, all the lines must be busy before incoming calls get rejected.

Use this field in conjunction with Maximum Number of Calls for CTI route points. The default specifies 4500 calls.

Enter a 't' to enable ILS to advertise this alternate number to rest of the ILS network. Enter an 'f' if you don't want ILS to advertise this number.

Enterprise Is Urgent

Enter a 't' to classify routing for this alternate number as urgent.

By default, if the dial plan contains overlapping route patterns Cisco Unified Communications Manager does not route the call until the interdigit timer expires (even if a possible route exists for the dialed digits). This setting guards against learned numbers that overlap with statically configured directory numbers and number patterns by allowing Cisco Unified Communications Manager to choose the best match of all available routes for the dial string.

When you mark the number as urgent priority, Cisco Unified Communications Manager routes the call as soon as it finds a match between the dialed digits and an available route, without waiting for the interdigit timer to expire (for example, the T302 Timer service parameter).

Enterprise Number Mask

Enter the number mask to apply to the directory number. Cisco Unified Communications Manager applies the mask to create an enterprise alternate number that is an alias of this directory number.

Enterprise Route Partition

Enter the local route partition to which you want to assign this enterprise alternate number.

+E.164 Add to Local Route Partition

Enter a 't' to add this E.164 alternate number to a local route partition. Enter 'f' to leave the E.164 number off of local routing.
