Student Code of Conduct


Mitel Training makes every effort possible to provide a safe, clean and professional environment
for students attending training classes. It has become necessary, for the benefit of all students,
to define what is expected from those attending classes at Mitel Training. Please observe the
following guidelines.

Punctuality
Classes begin promptly at the time designated by your instructor. Students are required to
return from breaks and lunch promptly, as the instructor specifies. Instructors will begin lectures
promptly at the scheduled times.

Appropriate Behavior
Students are expected to participate in class as professionals. Disruptive behavior will not be
tolerated.

Disruptive behavior is any action interfering with the instructor’s presentation or action
distracting from another student’s ability to participate in the class. If, at the instructor’s
discretion, a student is being disruptive, the following steps will be taken:

• 1st Occurrence: Verbal warning. The student will be advised that his or her behavior is
disruptive.

• 2nd Occurrence: Verbal warning. The student and the student’s manager or supervisor will
be informed that this is the final warning.

• 3rd and Final Occurrence: The student will be dismissed from the remainder of class and
the student’s manager or supervisor will be informed that the student has been released
from class. The only option available to the student is to take the course exam at a
proctored testing center, at the student’s expense, or retake the course, in its entirety, at full
tuition. No refund will be issued.

Training Equipment
Mitel Training has made every effort to provide a “state-of-the-art” training facility and training
equipment. Every effort has been made to provide the technology and equipment necessary to
provide students with a real-world environment. All training systems and equipment (including
PCs and the PC Network) are provided as tools to enhance the training experience. Equipment
is only to be accessed and utilized for the completion of class lab exercises as the instructor
indicates. Unauthorized exploring of, or experimenting with the training equipment will be
considered disruptive behavior and will not be tolerated.

Leaving Class Prior to the Final Certification Exam


Occasionally, a student may have a bona fide reason to leave class early due to a family
emergency, death in the family, etc. If a student must leave class prior to the administration of
the final written exam for any reason, the only option available to the student is to complete the
final written exam at a proctored testing center. Testing fees from the testing center are the
responsibility of the student and/or company requesting the test.

3-2 Installing the Hardware_rev1.doc


Installing the Hardware

3300 Controller

The 3300 controllers are universal for all geographic regions. Variants are distinguished by user
capacity alone, rather than by user capacity and region.

When you receive a new MXe, CXi or CX controller for installation, the hard drive, iButton and
Analog Main Board (AMB) are factory-installed. The hard drive may have an earlier release of
software, so always check MOL for the current release of software.

A power supply for the MXe controller is factory installed.

The cards within the 3300 controllers – Dual FIM, Dual T1/E1 Framer, T1/E1 Combo, Quad BRI
Framer, Quad DSP, DSP II, Echo Canceller and Quad CIM – are known as Mitel Mezzanine
Cards (MMCs).

Caution
The cards are held in position with screws that are kept from “walking out” by
lock washers. Ensure that all lock washers are accounted for when you have
finished installing a card. A loose lock washer could short out components.

Reference
For a more comprehensive hardware overview, refer to:

• The 3300 ICP Primer

• The 3300 ICP Technician’s Handbook, Appendix A

• The General Information Guide

Note
Since the MXe Server runs on MCD software, it is covered in a separate self-
study course.

Connecting to the RS-232 Port


You can connect the maintenance port on the 3300 to a PC COM port using a serial cable.

Use this connection in combination with a VT-100 application such as HyperTerminal or PuTTY
to monitor the boot up sequence of the 3300.

Serial cable
Bits per second = 9600
Data Bits = 8
Parity = None
Stop Bits = 1
Flow Control = None

The VT-100 application should be configured as shown in the above diagram. This gives you
access to the VxWorks operating system shell.

The following are the only commands authorized to be used without assistance from Technical
Support:

• version – Prints the VxWorks version information and boot line

• dosFsShow – Used to check available free disk space for the voicemail partition

• bootChange – Provides access to change the boot line options

• reboot – Reboots the 3300 system

Note
This is NOT the recommended way to reboot the system. The system reboot
process can be viewed from the VxWorks screen. It is a good way to
determine when the process is complete.

System Alarms

If the indicator on the front of the controller indicates an alarm, the cause of the alarm must be
determined. The two ways to do this are:

• Navigate to Maintenance and Diagnostics > Alarm Details

• Navigate to Maintenance and Diagnostics > Maintenance Commands > All

Note
Always use both methods to determine the cause of an alarm. Some alarm
categories only show up in the Alarm Details form and some only show up
when using the commands.

Reference
Help > Contents > Troubleshooting > Alarms

When a new system is being installed, there will be alarms indicated.

On a new MXe with an E2T card, the system gets an E2T Comms alarm because the E2T card
needs an IP address to communicate with the RTC. The recommended way for the E2T to get
an IP address is from DHCP, but that is disabled on a new system.

Using the Show Stat Alarm command, a Sysid Mismatch alarm is present because the licenses
have not been programmed.

Enabling Licensed Options

When delivered from the factory, the 3300 ICP has a default database, which is blank, except
for the DHCP forms. DHCP is programmed on the default subnet but it is disabled.

License and Option information is not programmed by default and must be programmed before
the system database can be configured. The system option password is tied to the system’s
SYSID and the license options purchased.

There are two ways to complete the License and Option Selection form within ESM.
1. The preferred method is to use Mitel’s Application Management Center (AMC) licensing
process to retrieve the Purchased Options and Password from the AMC. This method allows
licenses to be moved between systems.
2. If unable to connect to the internet, manually input the license and option information, and
leave the Application Record field blank. You will need the SYSID and MOSS password.
This method ties the license to that particular system. The license keys are on the 3300 ICP
Feature Options Record.

4-17
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

To retrieve the Purchased Options and Password from the AMC, either the 3300 controller
using ESM, or the 3300 Software Installer (SI) tool needs to connect to the AMC Server.

From the License and Option Selection Change dialog, you may enter an Application Record ID,
and then query the AMC for the Purchased Options and Password by selecting the Retrieve
Licenses button.

Caution
If you manually obtain a Password from the AMC, the licenses that are
assigned to that 3300 SYSID in the AMC are permanently tied to that system.

By using the AMC Application Record process to retrieve the purchased option online, you will
retain the ability to reassign the purchased options to other systems owned by the same
customer.

If you use the manual process to input the license and option information you must choose
Download the License Key for that application record.

The manual process permanently ties the purchased options to the Application record.

4-18 Establishing Communications with the Controller_rev1.doc


Establishing Communications with the Controller

For the system to query the AMC Server, it must be physically connected to the Internet. It may
also be necessary to adjust the RTC’s IP address and default gateway for the system to work
on the local network.

Adjusting the 3300 IP Configuration requires a system reset.

You must complete the DNS Configuration fields in the System IP Configuration form with the
Primary and Secondary DNS Servers. This allows you to establish a connection from the
controller to the AMC Server.

If the system is behind a firewall, the firewall must allow TCP connections from the system to
TCP port 443 on the AMC.

4-19
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Once the system has been configured to communicate with the AMC, simply type in the
Application Record, select the country, and select Retrieve Licenses. If there are problems
making the connection to the AMC, check the DNS settings by pinging register.mitel-amc.com.

Obtaining a System Password

If the system does not have Internet access to the AMC, you need to manually alter the
individual Purchased Options and enter the corresponding Password in the License and Option
form. The Application Record ID is not required. You may also need to associate the SYSID
with the Application Record on the AMC website.

The password can be obtained from your AMC account through MOL. Access the AMC site
from your MOL account at the www.mitel.com web site. You will need to know the SYSID
number for your system.

An Application Record created using the AMC associates the correct license information with
your customer system SYSID.

Log in to MOL with your personal MOL password. Select the AMC link to access the AMC News
Page. A Reseller Tech username and password are needed to connect to the AMC Page.

It is also recommended that two Configuration Options be enabled for all 3300 installations:

• Networking Option

• Mitai/Tapi Computer Integration


Although these two features may not be immediately needed for each customer, enabling these
options initially will avoid having to enable them in the future and also avoid the required system
reset. They are not tied to licensing and there are no costs associated with them.

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Database Management System (DBMS)

The DBMS is a routine with three purposes:

• Turns on the DBMS_Initialized flag, which tells the system to save the database, and all
future changes, to the hard drive and RAM.

• Makes sure the programmed database is correctly loaded from the hard disk when the
system starts up or resets. It ensures the database is free from errors by performing a
routine check.

• Allows you to enable the DHCP server on the system controller. The DHCP service must be
running in order to enable DHCP in the DHCP Server form.

Caution
With the DBMS_Initialized flag turned off, any time you reset the system, a
blank database will be loaded into the system memory.

Note
The License and Option information and the DHCP programming are not lost
if the system is reset when the DBMS_Initialized flag is turned off.

To ensure that the system saves the database changes you have made and does not default
the database during a system reset, you must perform a DBMS Save command. The command
only needs to be done once. Once the flag is on, all future changes are saved to the hard drive.

Note
If you restore a database during an install procedure, you do not need to
perform a DBMS Save, because the system will perform one automatically.

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

In a multi-subnet network, different DHCP servers may be used, or different IP scopes may be
defined for each subnet. It is important that the options in each scope be defined correctly for
use by the E2T and IP phones. The Option definitions are:

• Option 3 - The IP address of the default gateway router used by the PC, IP Phone, and the
E2T card. Phones need this for two-way audio.

• Option 6 – The IP address of the DNS server.

• Option 66 – The IP address of the TFTP server, which is the 3300 ICP. It is the keeper of
the E2T’s boot file.

• Option 67 – The name and location of the TFTP boot file, which is the boot file used by the
E2T. It is /sysro/e2t8260

• Option 125 – Vendor specific parameters


| id – This is a Mitel IP phone identifier, and must be ipphone.mitel.com so the phone will
accept an IP address from this DHCP server
| sw_tftp – The IP address of the TFTP server that has the IP phone’s software, which is
downloaded to the phone.
| call_srv – The IP address of the RTC. The phone uses this to register with the
controller.
| dscp – Differentiated Services Code Point Value, used for voice streaming and signaling
Quality of Service (QoS).

Note
The 3300 MXe in MX mode, CX, and CXi use a single processor for a
combination RTC/E2T.

The E2T parameters, which are DHCP options 66 and 67 and a reserved IP
address, are only needed for the E2T on the 3300 MXe in LX mode.

DHCP in Release 7.0 and Above

At release 7.0, the existing IP phones have firmware that looks for DHCP options: 130 – MITEL
IP PHONE, and 128 – TFTP server - in order to accept the DHCP offer and upgrade its
firmware.

Once the phone’s firmware is upgraded, it reboots, and will then look for option 125.

If you program options 125, 128, 129, 130 the phones will boot using the old options, upgrade
their firmware and reboot successfully using the new option 125.

Once a system database is at release 7.0, options 128 through 134 are retained and instances
of option 125 are created to match the needs of differing scopes that existed prior to the
upgrade.

For example:

Conflict Resolution
DHCP responses containing multiple response types (i.e. more than one of the methods
outlined in the previous section) are resolved as indicated in the following sequence:

• The phone will use information that is statically set and ignore all others.

• If option 125 is present and contains valid Mitel-specific information (i.e. has a vendor id
=1027), the client IP phone will use option 125 and ignore all others.

• If option 43 is present and contains valid Mitel-specific information (has a vendor id =


“ipphone.mitel.com”), the client will use option 43 and ignore all others. Some DHCP servers
do not support option 125, so option 43 can be used instead.

• Finally, the client will look for valid Mitel-specific information in options 128-135, and if option
130 does not contain the "MITEL IP PHONE" string, the DHCP offer will be rejected.

LAN Policy Quality of Service (QoS) Form

The LAN Policy form provides values for Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) and Layer
2 Priority for IP connections for the E2T. It has evolved to allow differentiated treatment of voice
media and voice signaling.

The LAN Policy form provides quality of service configuration using DSCP or DiffServ for traffic
originating at the E2T. DSCP is typically used across a WAN link.

Use the form to give Layer 2 priority to voice media and voice signaling traffic and to map DSCP
to Layer 2 (L2) Priority. Mapping ensures that voice priority is maintained in networks that use
the L2 Priority QoS mechanism.

Note
Changes to the DSCP values require a system reboot to take effect.

Note
Ensure that the E2T receives option 3, the Router, from the DHCP server.
When programming DHCP options, set the scope field for option 3 to Subnet.

Priority for DHCP Options is as follows:

• Static Options override Range Options.

• Range Options override Subnet Options.

• Subnet Options override Global Options.


For example, if DHCP Option 3 is programmed at both the Range and Subnet
level, devices that receive an address from within the range will use the value
programmed at the Range level. Any reservations programmed in the DHCP
Static IP form would receive the value programmed at the Subnet level.

Note
For the IP sets to access the Internet, DHCP Option 6 must be programmed

Using the Planner

This is an example of using the planner.

The customer wants to have 5212 IP sets, 5224 IP sets, and 5550 IP Consoles installed. In
addition, the RTC must be assigned an IP address on the same subnet and the E2T of the 3300
ICP will be served by the internal DHCP.

• The subnet allowed by the LAN Administrator is subnet 50: 192.168.50.0 with a subnet
mask: 255.255.255.0.

• The range of IP addresses is 1 through 200 with lease times of 8 hours.

• The IP address for the RTC must be programmed in the System IP Configuration form with
a value of 192.168.50.220.

• The 3300 ICP is the TFTP server.

• The Default gateway is 192.168.50.201.

• The E2T static reservation is: 192.168.50.221.

Network Topology Guidelines

DHCP in the Network


In large networks, it is common practice to separate devices into logical or geographical
groupings, called segments. Each segment is usually assigned a fixed range of addresses that
are managed by a DHCP server. A single DHCP server may be responsible for the entire
network, or the task may be shared by a number of servers.

Note
The DHCP server used for the E2T must have these settings:

• Reserved IP Address/Subnet Mask

• Default Gateway (Option 3): Representative of the segment on which the


3300 ICP E2T is installed. The network portion of the default Gateway IP
address will always be identical to the Network portion of the RTC and
E2T IP addresses.

• TFTP Server (Option 66): The IP address of the 3300 ICP, keeper of the
E2T’s boot file.

• TFTP Bootfile (Option 67): /sysro/e2t8260.

4-76 Establishing Communications with the Controller_rev1.doc


Establishing Communications with the Controller

Single DHCP Server


A single DHCP server managing devices on multiple segments has a different DHCP scope
defined for each segment.

It is still important that the four DHCP options be correctly defined on each scope.

In the following example, set A and set B register with the one DHCP server, and are supplied
with:

• IP Address/Subnet Mask

• Default Gateway (Option 3)

• TFTP Server (Option 125: sw_tftp)

• RTC IP Address (Option 125: call_srv)

• Mitel Identifier (Option 125: id)

• Differentiated Services Code Point Value (Option 125: dscp)

Note
When using centralized DHCP, it is important that routers be configured
properly for Layer 2 and Layer 3 IP forwarding. Otherwise, Set A would be
given an IP address from the scope for the segment on which the DHCP
server is installed.

4-77
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Multiple DHCP Servers


With multiple DHCP servers, those supporting IP Phones must have a minimum of two DHCP
options correctly defined. The second option, Option 125, is programmed with a minimum of
four values.

In the following example:

• Set A broadcasts for an IP address from the DHCP on the 3300 ICP.

• Set B broadcasts for an IP address from DHCP server B.


They are supplied with:

• IP Address/Subnet Mask

• Default Gateway (Option 3)

• TFTP Server (Option 125: sw_tftp)

• RTC IP Address (Option 125: call_srv)

• Mitel Identifier (Option 125: id)

• Differentiated Services Code Point Value (Option 125: dscp)

IP Phone Boot Files via TFTP


Every time an IP Phone boots with a 3300 ICP, it generates a TFTP download of its main
software from its TFTP server. This means that at bootup from a power failure, all phones will
be attempting a software download from the TFTP server. This generates significant LAN traffic.

The simplest install is to have the 3300 ICP as the TFTP server for all the IP Phones.

To diminish inter-segment traffic, an additional TFTP server could be defined in the network
local to the IP Phone.

After sourcing DHCP details, set A and set B will then download boot software from their TFTP
server specified by the DHCP settings for each individual scope.

Note
The software files for the sets are in the /sysro/tftp directory. These must be
present on the specified TFTP server. They can be obtained via FTP from the
3300 ICP and then sent to the remote TFTP server. They can also be
downloaded from MOL.

Here is an example of the file location for the 5340 set.

Physical Location Identifiers (PLIDs)

Each device connecting to a 3300 ICP system has a Device ID (IP telephones) or a Physical
Location Identifier (analog and digital devices, analog and digital trunks). A Physical Location
Identifier (PLID) is a four-digit number used by the 3300 software to identify the specific circuit
that an end device or trunk is connected to.

The PLID is used to identify which pair of wires will be used at the punch down block for each
TDM circuit. This allows movement of devices by moving patch wiring at the punch down rather
than having to move an entire cable run.

An example of a PLID on an Analog Services Unit is: 2 1 3 5.

• 2 - Unit or cabinet number.


A unit number is a number that identifies the associated hardware. It is arbitrary and can
be assigned as required. Unit 1 is always the controller itself.

In this example, it is a cabinet number and is used to determine which peripheral


cabinet, such as an FD PER, FD DSU, ASU, NSU, a device is connected to.

• 1 - Shelf number, is almost always 1, except on an expanded FD PER cabinet where it


would be 2, representing the expanded cabinet.

• 3 - Card or slot on the peripheral cabinet to which the device is connected.

• 5 - Circuit to which the end device is connected.


In this example, the device is connected to the fifth circuit on card 3 of the first shelf of cabinet 2.

For another example, in a cabinet assigned as unit 12 on shelf 1, card slot 3, circuit 8 would be
designated 12 1 3 8.

3300 ICP Expansion Units

The 3300 ICP system supports five types of expansion units that can connect to the controller.

The Copper Interface Module (CIM) ports can connect to:

• Various Analog Service Units (ASUs)

• An SX-200 Bay
The Dual FIMs can connect to:

• Network Services Units (NSU)

• Fiber Distributed Peripheral Cabinets (FD PER)

• Fiber Distributed Digital Service Unit Cabinets (FD DSU).

Analog Services Unit


The three variants are:

• Analog Services Unit - Includes 24 On Premises (ONS) analog circuits to support Fax,
Modem, and any other legacy telephony services.

• Universal Analog Services Unit - Includes 16 ONS analog circuits, 4 Loop Start trunk
circuits, 2 Pager circuits, and 4 Music-On-Hold (MOH) circuits. Only one MOH circuit can be
assigned as the MOH port.

• ASU II – Includes two card slots that support the 16-Port ONS Card, the 16-Port Combo
Card, and the 24-port ONSP card. There can be a maximum of 8 LS/CLASS Trunks
installed on the ASU II.
The 16-Port Combo card has:

• 12 ONS/CLASS circuits and 4 LS/CLASS circuits

• Four System Fail Transfer ports.


You must purchase Analog Line licenses for each ONS circuit used on the ASU II or AX
controller line cards.

The 24-Port ONSP card is available for the ASU II and AX Controller. The circuits on this card
have additional electrical protection.

You can install up to twelve 24-Port ONSP cards in the AX Controller to provide up to 288 ONS
ports. However no more than 150 of the ports can be in an active call state at any given time,
and this limit may be reduced further if some of the users are on long loops.

Any users beyond the allowed maximum who attempt to originate a call receive silence. Users
attempting to place a call beyond the allowed maximum to a circuit on the AX controller receive
error tone and the call is not completed.

Configuring the Hardware

While the 16-port ONS card supports a Ringer Equivalency Number (REN) of 2, the 24-port
ONSP card supports a REN of 3.

Note
The REN indicates the quantity of ringers which may be connected to a single
telephone line and still all ring.

An Analog Line License is needed to enable each port.

The 24-Port ONSP Card is supported in the Analog Services Unit Configuration form.

The following window can be accessed by navigating to System Configuration > Units/Modules
> Analog Services Unit Configuration.

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Network Services Unit (NSU)


The three variants are:

• 3300 BRI NSU – for Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), and NA variants. Includes 15
dual-64Kb Basic Rate ISDN (BRI) circuits to support devices such as Video/Conference
units or ISDN modems/phones.

• R2 NSU - Allows for R2 signaling/translation protocol.

• Universal NSU - EMEA and NA variants, allows for two links of T1/E1, MSDN/DPNSS, and
PRI/ISDN per unit.

Note
The BRI NSU does not connect directly to the 3300 ICP Controller but rather
must connect using a CEPT configured digital link (30-channel) on a separate
Universal NSU that is configured for E1 protocol.

Signaling protocols cannot be mixed between T1/E1, MSDN/DPNSS, and


PRI/ISDN on a single NSU unit.

The R2 and BRI NSU units have a 9-pin serial connection on the front to allow
unit programming with the PRI-IMAT programming tool.

Connecting the ASU and NSU Units to the Controller

Assuming that the controller is up and running, connect the ASU and NSU units to the desired
modules on the controller.

• The Analog Services Unit (ASU) links to the controller by use of a Category 5 Universal
Twisted Pair (UTP) crossover cable (up to 30 meters in distance). A built-in copper interface
module (CIM) is set in the ASU. In the controllers, two (MX) or four (MXe and LX) built-in
CIM modules allow for connectivity.

• The Network Services Unit (NSU, FD PER, and FD DSU) link to the controller by use of a
paired fiber optic cable (up to 1 km). A built-in fiber interface is set in the NSU; in the FD
DSU and FD PER, a fiber interface module (FIM) is installed. In the controller, a FIM is
installed into one of the front module slots.
You can also verify that each connection (fiber-FIM or copper-CIM) is communicating with its
associated mate at the controller by viewing the state of the LEDs. Green LEDs on all cabled
FIMs and CIMs should be ON solid (not flashing) to prove physical connectivity.

Note
1. The run length is the one-way length of fiber optic cable between nodes.
2. Frame synchronization errors occur if the loop length of fiber optic cable
(from control node to peripheral cabinet or DSU cabinet and back) is
between 10.0 km and 10.6 km (6.2 miles and 6.6 miles).
Nodes are typically connected by two-strand or “paired” fiber optic cable. For
paired cable, a loop length of 10.0 km to 10.6 km equals a 5.0 km to 5.3 km
cable run length.

SX-200 Bay Support on the 3300 MXe Controller

As of release 9.0, up to seven SX-200 Bay cabinets are supported on a 3300 MXe controller.
The controller will connect to SX-200 Bays that have the Bay Control Card (BCC) III card
installed.

The controller supports DNI, ONS and OPS lines installed into the bay. Analog and digital trunk
cards are not supported.

Bays equipped with a CIM on the BCC III can connect to the controllers through:

• Embedded CIM ports

• CIM ports of a Quad CIM card


Bays equipped with a FIM on the BCC III can be connected to the 3300 via the Dual FIM Card.

Any combination of FIMs and CIMs can be used to connect the bays to the controller.

Analog lines that are programmed on the SX-200 bays increment the number of analog licenses
used within the 3300 ICP while digital phones that are programmed do not.

Database transfers from SX-200 to 3300 are not supported. This means that all bay equipment
and sets that are to be reused must be programmed into the 3300 database as new entries.

Note
Some licenses can be migrated from the SX-200 to the 3300 ICP.

Customers who migrate from the SX-200 to the 3300 ICP should be made aware of the possible
functionality differences between the two platforms.

Note
A Dual FIM cannot support both an SX-200 Bay and an NSU, or an SX-200
Bay and an SX-2000 Peripheral cabinet.

Migration Procedure
1. If the bay has digital trunk cards, move the trunk connections from the bay to an NSU or
embedded module on the 3300 ICP. SX-200 Bays connected to the 3300 ICP will not
support trunk connections.
2. Remove the digital trunk cards from the bay. Ideally, some trunks are connected to other
bays. On very small systems, however, connection to the PSTN will be lost at this time. It
might be worthwhile to connect one or more telephones to the CO connections that are used
for Power Fail Transfer until the trunks are up on the 3300 ICP.
3. Move the SX-200 Bay cables to the CIM and FIM ports on the 3300 ICP, as appropriate for
the system configuration.
4. If it’s not on a DNI card, move the Superconsole 1000 to a DNI card circuit.
5. Disconnect the door opener relay contact relays and DMP units.

5-39
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

6. Move the Power Fail Transfer, alarm contacts, music port, pager port etc. from the SX-200
to the 3300 ICP.

Caution

• The 3300 ICP upgrades the software load on the BCC III automatically: When the
BCC III comes up it sends its version information to the controller that checks it
against the load on the hard drive. If a newer version is on the hard drive, the
system reloads the BCC III.

• Do not remove or power down the bay while it is upgrading. A corrupted Flash
may result. It can be repaired using KB 04-1000-01476 available on MOL.

• Allow at least 30 minutes for the upgrade process for each bay.

Programming
The following forms need to be programmed to support the SX-200 bay.

Analog Services Unit Configuration Form


This form supports programmed and installed assignment of the SX-200 Bay.

Card Assignment Form


When a unit is configured as a SX-200 Bay on the Analog Services Unit Configuration
form, the eight peripheral card slots on the bay appear on this form. The PLID of the
slots is generated as follows:

• Cabinet - the unit number programmed on the Analog Services Unit Configuration form

• Shelf - always 1

• Slot - a number in the range of 1 to 8.


Only slots one to eight contain programmable circuits. Only the slots that may be
programmed with interface cards are displayed.

Analog Set Assignment Form


There are no changes to this form. The SX-200 Bay ONS card types show up in the
read-only Card Type field. Six or 12 circuit positions, depending on the card type, are
generated for each of the programmed SX-200 Bay peripheral cards.

Note
The Circuit Descriptor Index field must be filled in for ONS circuits on SX-200
Bay cards, but neither the circuit descriptor nor the assignments are distributed
to the Bay. Therefore, changing the Circuit Descriptor will have no effect on
circuit operation.
The Circuit descriptor value 16 is used for all of the cards and must be
configured appropriately.

Analog circuits on the SX-200 Bay ONS cards are counted against the Analog Line
Licenses that were purchased for the system.

Assigning Access Privileges

Configuring the System Administrator Policies

A System Administrator Policy controls access to forms in the System Administration Tool.
When you create a policy, you set permissions that grant Read Only or Read/Write access to
forms. You can also deny access to forms, which hides them from the user.

One policy is assigned to each user in the User Authorization Profiles form and distributed to all
of the customer’s 3300 systems that are using System Data Synchronization (SDS).

The following table shows:

• The default policies

• Access levels, from highest to lowest

• Permissions

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

This is where passwords may be set


for the various usernames, including
the system user.

For Release 6.x and 7.x systems, the System profile has SDS Admin rights by default. If you
upgrade to Release 8.0, the SDS profile is automatically assigned Root Administrator access
rights.

On a system where the SDS feature is disabled, the Shared Data Update, Form Comparison,
and Shared Forms Configuration forms do not appear in the list of forms that the System
Administrator can access.

You can prevent a Root Administrator on a local system from having Root Administrator access
rights on specific remote systems. Use the Shared Forms Configuration form to restrict the
sharing of the Root Administrator's profile with the remote systems.

6-6 Assigning Access Privileges_rev5.doc


Assigning Access Privileges

Preventing Unauthorized Access

Caution
To prevent unauthorized access in the field, change the default administrator
passwords. Do not change them in the classroom.

Because of the nature of SDS, an administrator can indirectly modify data in a


remote 3300 ICP without having administration rights programmed on that
system.

In the User Authorization Profiles, change the default username and password for the System
User Profile login ID. Ensure that any other user profile login IDs that are created only have the
required access level.

With all security features in place, customers become responsible for their PBX security and are
expected to do the following when the PBX is installed. They are also reminded that the
username and password for system profile in ESM should be restricted to only reliable,
responsible personnel, at the owner’s discretion. As a general rule of thumb, System Level
access should not be assigned to routine service personnel.

• Create the necessary user profiles. When installing the 3300 ICP login as System with
correct username and password in ESM, create the required profiles needed for the 3300
ICP. Remember to change these on a regular basis to help keep the system as secure as
possible.

• Make and keep a backup copy of new usernames and passwords. Whenever usernames
and passwords are changed, make sure that the updated usernames and passwords are
recorded and saved in a secure area. These records should be accessible to any service
personnel, if needed.

• Backup your database. Backup the database regularly and whenever there have been
changes made to it.

Healthy System Checklist

Checking the System Health

A healthy system means that everything is operating as expected. There are a number of
system checks that should be done before leaving it unattended.

Caution
Mitel recommends this checklist be used both before and after working on a
system.

Healthy System Checklist


To ensure that the system is running properly, make sure that:

• There are no alarms present.

• There are no error logs. More details about the logs are discussed in the Troubleshooting
module.

• There are no failed data distribution updates if System Data Synchronization (SDS) is
configured. SDS is discussed in the advanced class.

• DBMS STATUS indicates:


| The DBMS_INITIALIZED flag is turned on.
| The DBMS CHECK is scheduled.
| The last time a DBMS CHECK occurred and if there were any errors.
| The next time a DBMS CHECK will occur.

• The database is backed up.

• The Programmed Reboot schedule is programmed for the desired date and time.

Reference
Technician’s Handbook > Maintenance Chapter > Check System

7-3
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Alarm Check

Check for the presence of any alarms. You can observe the alarm status by:

• Viewing the LEDs on the front of the controller

• Viewing the alarm status in the ESM window.

• Issuing the SHOW STATUS ALARMS command

• Checking the Alarm Details form in ESM.


Determining the cause of some alarms is discussed in the Troubleshooting module.

Note
It is important to always check both the Alarm Details form and issue the
SHOW STATUS ALARMS command. Some alarm categories only show up in
the Alarm Details form and some only show up when using the commands.

Alarms are also indicated on:

• Cabinet TDM cards.

• Console windows.

• Sets configured to display alarms.

7-4 Healthy System Checklist_rev4.doc


Healthy System Checklist

Database Check

The 3300 ICP stores database information such as the hardware & user specifics of the system,
both in its RAM memory and on its hard drive. The stored data can become corrupt and
unusable.

Checking the Database


There are two methods to have the system check its database for errors:

• Manually, using the DBMS CHECK BRIEF or FULL command

• Automatically on a schedule, using the DBMS CHECK TIME command

DBMS CHECK Command


When you issue the DBMS CHECK command, the system examines the database copy that it
has in RAM memory and looks for errors. If it finds errors, it reports them on the maintenance
terminal screen and raises a MAJOR Alarm with a category of DATABASE. You must then take
action to remove the errors.

Note
You should always perform a DBMS CHECK FULL after any lengthy ESM
session. It gives more information about the database than BRIEF. BRIEF
simply performs the check and does not display the status of each form like
FULL does. Both commands give the same end result, and there should be no
Table or View Errors. It is recommended to use the DBMS CHECK FULL
command for the remainder of the class.

Database Errors
Whether the database is truly corrupted at the time of the DBMS Check or unavailable due to
access by another database process, such as a database backup, the DBMS Check results
appear the same.

It is best to repeat the check after a conflicting database process has completed.

Whether a database error is detected during a manual or a scheduled check, the DBMS
CHECK FULL command should be repeated to confirm the error and to view details about the
areas of database unavailable for access.

You may also attempt to select a database form and view its contents. A failure, with a system
error message as a reply, confirms a corrupted database.

When a database error has been confirmed, begin a database recovery from a known healthy
database backup. Database backups are discussed later.

7-5
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Database errors may also occur if someone or something is accessing the database. For
example, if someone else is accessing a form, the 3300 ICP cannot check that form and
displays an error. The same is true if a hospitality Property Management System (PMS) is
accessing the database, such as someone being checked in or wakeup calls are being input. If
this is the case, simply wait, check there is no other access, and try again.

Scheduling Automatic Database Checking


The DBMS CHECK TIME n command sets the time at which automatic database checking
occurs. Default is 5 AM.

n is the hour, from 0 to 23, at which the system performs the check. Specifying minutes is not
possible. The set hour must be at least 10 minutes from the current time, or set to the next
hour, for the event to occur on the current day.

If the system detects a database error via the automatic DBMS CHECK, it will raise a MAJOR
alarm.

The DBMS CHECK OFF command turns the automatic checking off. On a newly installed
system, the default is 5AM and check is off. If the default time of 5AM is the desired hour to be
used for the DBMS CHECK, type the command DBMS CHECK ON.

Routine Database Backups

A backup of the system’s data should be done on a regular basis. If the system loses its
database or there is a serious database corruption as indicated by the inability to access ESM
forms, the database can be restored from a recent backup.

When backing up the system, you copy it from the system hard drive to another media. The
backup procedure lets you back up the database files alone or with Call History records and/or
voice mail messages. This procedure should be done whenever a number of changes have
been made to the database.

The database can be backed up to:

• The hard drive of the programming PC..

• An external FTP server. This is useful in a multi-node environment. The External FTP Server
form needs to be programmed.

Use the Browse button to launch the Save As dialog box, and then navigate to the location on
your local drive where you want to save the backup file. You have the choice of where to store
the backup, locally on your client PC or on a file server on the LAN.

If Call History and Voice Mail Messages are included in the backup, it can add a significant
amount of time to the backup.

The system hard disk is 40 GB, of which 20 GB is used. For a full backup with the voice mail
messages, which can be up to 14 GB, you will need a significant amount of available space at
the target location.

During a system backup, no other users can access any of the web-based tools, such as IP
Appliance Online Services, Visual Voice Mail, Desktop Tool, Group Administration Tool, or
System Administration Tool. It is recommended to perform system backups outside of business
hours. Call process will continue normally while the backup occurs.

Rotating three generations of database backups permits you to go further back to find the
database configuration you desire or the error-free database you need.

It is recommended to set up three separate backup locations and to keep a log book or file
recording of when each was last created.

Database Restore
If a DBMS CHECK finds errors, you can fix possible database errors using the backup that you
created. The length of time required to restore a customer database can vary depending on
whether or not the backup you are restoring included voice mail messages and/or call history
records.

When restoring a database, two things should be kept in mind:

• If the saved file is older, database changes made since that backup will be lost after the
restore. Performing regular backups should eliminate this problem.

• If the backup is corrupted or errors were saved to the backup, BAD DATA is detected.
During the restore, this corrupted data will be eliminated from the system, but the eliminated
data will likely represent programming information. This lost data will have to be manually
reprogrammed. Check the logs within Maintenance and Diagnostics to view any possible
errors.

Checking the Hard Drive


To check the hard drive for problems:

• Reset the system. The system checks for logical errors, maps out bad sectors, and runs a
hard disk surface test. The system identifies the capacity of the hard drive as well as the
used/free space.

• Check for Disk Space alarms. This is important for systems that use Embedded Voice Mail.

Note
For Embedded Voice Mail, a major alarm is raised when the hard drive is 90%
full and a critical alarm at 95% full.

Resetting the System


A system reset:

• Shows that the controller is healthy and operating normally

• Prevents the accumulation of file fragmentation errors in the system’s memory, which can
cause unpredictable results in system operation.
A reset can be accomplished by a:

• Controlled Reset - with the VxWorks line command, reboot, from the serial interface to the
3300 controller or by using the Reset System command in ESM. The Reset System
command requests all software components to shut down and monitors the progress of the
shut down. The Reset System command is the desired means of manually resetting a
system.

• Hard Reset - pressing the reset button on the controller. It is considered the last alternative
and is used when the controlled reset has failed. It should be used with caution as database
corruption can occur. This is equivalent to powering down the system.

• Scheduled Programmed Reboot - programmed through the ESM maintenance commands.


By default, the schedule time is set to 2:15 am daily, and the Programmed Reboot is set to
off.

7-26 Healthy System Checklist_rev4.doc


Healthy System Checklist

• Resource Reboot - can be set to occur if system resources fall below a defined threshold.
The resource reboot is on by default and occurs according to the scheduled programmed
reboot schedule. The monitored resources include:
| Memory consumption
„ If the amount of free memory becomes less than 20 Mbytes, a log is generated.
„ If the amount of free memory becomes less than 10 Mbytes, a log is generated and a
major alarm is raised to notify maintenance personnel that the system should be
rebooted. Under normal circumstances, the system should remain up for 2 to 4 days
after the alarm is generated. If configured, the system will be reset at the next
resource recovery time.
„ If the amount of free memory becomes less than 2 Mbytes, a log is generated and a
critical alarm is raised on the system. The system will reset immediately.
| Memory fragmentation
„ If the largest memory fragment becomes less than 2 Mbytes, a log is generated and
a major alarm is raised to notify maintenance personnel that the system should be
rebooted. Under normal circumstances, the system should remain up for 2 to 4 days
after the alarm is generated. If configured, the system will be reset at the next
resource monitoring reboot time.
„ If the largest memory fragment becomes less than 500 Kbytes, a log is generated
and a critical alarm is raised on the system. The system will reset immediately.
| Stale tasks/components
„ If a non-critical task is suspended, a log is generated and Major alarm is raised. If
configured, the system will be reset at the next resource monitoring reboot time.
„ If a critical task is suspended, a log is generated and a critical alarm is raised on the
system. The system will reset immediately.

Note
The thresholds for Memory Consumption, Memory Fragmentation, and Stale
Tasks/Components are hard-coded and cannot be changed.

The Programmed Reboot Courtesy On command enables the courtesy reboot option. When
courtesy reboot is enabled, the system waits for all calls to clear before rebooting. Use the
Courtesy qualifier to minimize the impact of reboots on system users. This is disabled by
default.

During a reboot, the system shuts down its processor and automatically restarts, clearing its
memory and allowing a fresh copy of the operating software and database to be loaded from the
hard drive.

Note
The system will run in a stable fashion providing full level of functionality
without scheduled programmed reboots for systems running 4.1.9.4 or
greater.

Any unexpected reboot should be reported to Mitel Technical Support. Mitel


recommends enabling the resource recovery feature.

Programmed Reboot

Verify that the:

• PROGRAMMED REBOOT TIME is set at an appropriately scheduled time for the customer
and is enabled if required. Make sure it doesn’t conflict with other activities such as DBMS
saves or OPS Manager access.

• PROGRAMMED REBOOT RESOURCE RECOVERY is scheduled and enabled.

Caution
Programmed Reboot will not occur if the system detects a database error via

Upgrading or Reloading Software

3300 ICP Software

Reloading
The procedures for completely reloading the software are very similar to upgrading the software.
Due to time restraints in the classroom, a full install will not be performed.

Upgrading
Software provides the call control of the 3300 ICP with its full operational functionality.

Note
Upgrading system software is covered this early in the training process
because when a new system is installed, it may not have the latest version
preloaded from the factory.

New software is released at various intervals during the year, usually to introduce new
functionality into the operating software or to address known problems.

The 3300 ICP software is packaged in such a way that the customer only needs to purchase the
licenses that they require. The features can be upgraded as the customer grows or as their
applications change.

If you are maintaining a 3300 ICP system, you may be required at some time to enable new
feature options or license settings, or you may need to upgrade the operating software.

8-3
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Software Building Blocks

The 3300 ICP system software is divided into:

• Operating Software

• Options Licenses

• Customer Database programming

• IP Peripheral Boot files


All must be present for the 3300 ICP system to operate properly.

Note
Before upgrading software, always read the appropriate version of Release
Notes in the Knowledge Base on MOL.

Types of Upgrades

License Upgrades
• Usually involves enabling a previously unselected feature or modifying the total allowed
users.

• A Mitel Options Password or the AMC Application Record corresponding to the selected
license and option changes is required for the customer’s SYSID.

Software Upgrades
The three Software Upgrade options available when using the Software Installer Tool
are:
1. Software Upgrade
2. Full Install
3. Apply a Patch

8-4 Upgrading or Reloading Software_rev4.doc


Upgrading or Reloading Software

Full System Rebuild – Manual Method


• Involves reinstalling the software release of your system, usually to recover from a hard
disk loss or corruption.

• Includes reinstalling the system software, reapplying the license and options, and
restoring your customer database.

• The software installation alone takes about an hour and restores the system to the
factory defaults.

• After completing a manual software upgrade, configure the licensing and restore the
database, which will also require a system reboot.

Note
During a full rebuild, the 3300 RTC IP address will remain unchanged; it will
not be defaulted back to 192.168.1.2 and 255.255.255.0, but the DHCP forms
will be defaulted to the 192.168.1.0 subnet.

Full Rebuild
The time spent on-site to rebuild a 3300 ICP system may take up to two hours.

Using the Software Installer Tool an Upgrade or Full Install is reduced to approximately one
hour including a database backup, input of license and option information and a database
restore.

During an offline upgrade, a system will be down for the entire duration of the upgrade
procedure. As a result, all telephony services from the system will be unavailable until the
upgrade is complete.

As of release 8.1, it is now possible to do an Online Upgrade. The bulk of the software upgrade
occurs in the background on a separate partition of the hard drive. The system continues to run
call process during this time. The only downtime is the single reboot required to swap the
upgraded software to the active partition.

Using FTP to Reload or Upgrade


File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a service used to transfer files between computers on a TCP/ IP
network. It offers a quick and efficient way to transfer files because it does not have the
overhead of encoding and decoding data. FTP is used to upgrade system software on a 3300
ICP. An FTP Server is required for a software upgrade, whether you use the Software Installer
Tool or the manual method to upgrade the 3300 ICP.

With release 8.0, an FTP server is now provided within the 3300 ICP. Choose the 3300 FTP
Server option when using the Software Installer Tool.

If an external FTP server is chosen, any FTP server application designed for the Windows
environment will work. Windows versions that can act as servers, such as Windows 2000, 2003
and XP, have one built into them within Internet Information Services (IIS). Other FTP servers,
such as GuildFTP and FileZilla, can be downloaded for free from the Internet. The PC hosting
the FTP server must connect to the 3300 ICP system through a LAN connection.

8-5
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Upgrading the RTC and E2T Firmware


If the Release Notes indicate that it is needed, use the Maintenance command UpgradeBootrom
All to upgrade the RTC and E2T firmware.

Any time that you upgrade the 3300 software to apply a patch, upgrade to a new Service Pack
(SP) load or a new release load, because the system is already operational, it must be
instructed to check for any newer loads for the boot ROM.

The command compares the firmware in the RTC/E2T boot ROM against the load on the hard
drive. If the loads are different, installation proceeds.

Partition Information
There is a partition scheme on the system hard drive that creates an Active partition and an
Inactive partition. The About Dialog shows the software version in each partition on the hard
disk.

8-6 Upgrading or Reloading Software_rev4.doc


Upgrading or Reloading Software

Swap Command
Use the SWAP command from the Maintenance and Diagnostics window to revert back to your
original software load. The following figure shows a swap from 10.0.0.5 to 9.1.0.54 based on the
previous About window.

If there is no compatible software version on the inactive partition, the swap will not be allowed.

Using the 3300 Software Installer tool, you can schedule when the swap to the new software
occurs if you are performing an online upgrade.

8-7
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Installation Executable File

To prepare for a system upgrade or install, you must put the 3300 software files on your PC,
network, or FTP server on the customer’s network. If you are using an external FTP server, be
sure to verify that the FTP server service is configured correctly and running.

Download and unzip the 3300 software from Mitel Online or use the 3300 Software CD-ROM.

You must put the MCD_Installation.exe file from the CD or MOL in a location on your PC or
network. If using an External FTP Server, use the FTP root folder.

Use the MCD_Installation.exe file found in the Software folder to extract the software into the
correct locations within the FTP root folder.

The default condition is to use an external FTP server.

After an upgrade and the new load is active, the original load remains on the 3300 ICP in the
inactive partition.

3300 ICP Software Installer Tool

The 3300 ICP Software Installer Tool allows you to upgrade software on multiple systems
simultaneously, or it can install or upgrade one 3300 ICP at a time.

Up to 10 instances of the 3300 ICP Software Installer Tool interface may be launched from the
main window by clicking on the Configure button, assuming that the IP address data has
changed between each selection. The main window controls how many windows can be open at
any time to allow you to perform simultaneous upgrades on multiple controllers.

Note
The 3300 ICP Software Installer Tool can be found on the 3300 ICP Software
CD-ROM in the Tools directory.

The tool is independent of OPS Manager, which is a management tool that allows simple
configuration, control and management of Mitel's enterprise product portfolio. It allows access to
multiple sites and systems from a single interface.

Upgrading or Reloading Software

Failover Considerations
Failover of resilient devices to secondary ICPs occurs in smaller groups. This helps to maximize
system availability by reducing the number of sets trying to register at the same time.

You can delay the Software Installer initiated failover for a specified period to allow users to
complete their calls.

You can stop upgrades and full installations while in progress and resume later from any
Software Installer client. The ability to stop and resume an installation is especially useful for
Full Installs as it allows you to complete an installation, except for the system reboot, during
office hours, and then reconnect to the system after hours to reboot.

Managed Handoff
Use the Handoff Services Type (HST) Courtesy Handoff commands to transfer resilient IP
phones to the secondary controller when the primary controller needs to be rebooted.

Use the Embedded Digital Trunk (EDT) Courtesy Handoff command to force T1/E1 trunks to the
secondary controller without dropping any calls in progress.

Use the SWAP command to swap the active and inactive partitions on your controller hard drive
after you install new software using the online upgrade option from the Software Installer tool.

You can also use SWAP to reboot from your original software load.

You can execute the swap command manually, or you can schedule it from the 3300 Software
Installer tool.

8-13
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Online Upgrades Versus Offline Upgrades


You can upgrade a controller while it is offline, meaning out of service, or online, meaning in
service.

Offline upgrades:

• Are faster.

• Make the controller downtime longer because of the number of system reboots required.
They should only be performed during off-hours to minimize the impact of service
disruptions.
Online upgrades:

• Require only one reboot

• Are used if overall installation time is more important than downtime.

• Require 512 MB of RAM.


An upgrade is a five step process:
1. File transfer, or downloading the software load to the controller.
2. Software installation.
3. Data Preservation, or backing up and restoring the database.
4. Configuring Licenses and Options.
5. Software Activation with a system reboot.
With an offline upgrade, all five steps are done in succession, ending with a system reboot.

With an online upgrade, you schedule when the Data Preservation and Software Activation
happens, such as after the File Transfer is completed or at a specified time thereafter.

A sixth step is required for controllers with resilient devices. To minimize service outage during
an upgrade, such devices are transferred to their secondary controller while the primary is
rebooted. If the Software Installer detects the presence of resilient devices, it will prompt you to
start the transfer either immediately or after a specified waiting period elapses. An immediate
transfer terminates any active calls. Waiting allows time for users to complete their calls before
they are terminated.

For an online upgrade, a backup is made to the 3300 system hard disk. You can choose
whether or not to export a copy of the database from the 3300 ICP.

Note
Because the hard drive is formatted during a full install, the system is out of
service for the duration of the installation.

An upgrade leaves the voice mail partition untouched, so a voice mail backup and restore is not
required.

8-14 Upgrading or Reloading Software_rev4.doc


Upgrading or Reloading Software

Optional License and Options Configuration - Existing license and option information is applied
to the new load. If the customer requires any license changes, you may alter the information as
part of this process.

Database Restore - The database stored above on the hard disk is always restored. You can
choose whether or not to restore Hotel/Motel options.

Licensing is validated at the beginning of the upgrade or installation process. If successful, the
process continues. This eliminates the downtime of previous releases that occurred when the
process continued regardless of success or failure, leaving the 3300 ICP without licenses and
database.

If you are performing an online upgrade, you can schedule when the Software Activation occurs,
thus swapping to the new software.

Online upgrades with scheduled Data Preservation and Software Activation are only supported
for controllers with at least 512 MB of RAM.

With MCD Release 4.0, the CX/CXi supports the one step upgrade process rather than
requiring a final manual reboot. A one step upgrade process is possible on an AX if the
secondary 4 GB flash card has been installed, in addition to the primary 2 GB flash card and the
512 MB RAM required when running MCD Release 4.0.

Manually Rebuild the System’s Operating Software


In this section, the procedures for performing a full Operating Software rebuild will be outlined.

Prerequisites
• You need the operating software to be downloaded and installed on the FTP server.

• You should have an up-to-date backup of your system’s database.

• You will need the License and Option information, either a printed copy or by accessing the
AMC for the information that corresponds with the system’s SYSID that you are installing.
Alternatively, you will need the Application Record specific to your 3300 system, and you will
need to ensure that the System IP Configuration form is programmed on the 3300 to access
the AMC.

Overview of a Manual System Rebuild


• Create a current backup of the 3300 database.

• Download and unzip the new 3300 software from MOL to an FTP server on the network.

• Ensure that the FTP server service is running, properly configured, and able to
communicate with the controller over the IP network. Enable the Allow Anonymous login or
configure an appropriate username and password for the 3300.

• Download and review the Release Notes for the new software from MOL. Ensure that you
have the most recent version specific to this new software load. This requirement is
extremely important because procedures change from one software release to another.

• On the FTP server, navigate to the downloaded software and launch MCD_Installation.exe.
Answer the installation wizard questions.

Note
This executable will move all of the required files for the software installation
to the appropriate folder on the FTP server.

• Access VxWorks with your terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal.

• Type reboot and enter three spaces when prompted.

• Type p to display the current settings. Type c to change the settings.

• Adjust the 3300 boot parameters in order that the 3300 ICP functions as an FTP client. This
change will allow the 3300 to access the FTP server and request the transfer of the required
files from the FTP server hard drive. The 3300 boot parameters are adjusted using the
VxWorks interface.

Single Line Phones

On the 3300 ICP, single line can mean:

• A single line directory number, which is an extension number that appears in the database
only once. It may be programmed as a prime line or as a non-prime line.

• A single line telephone, which provides businesses with a simple, cost-effective way to
provide calling capacity and access to system features. Most installations include single line
telephones.

Analog Phones
There are many varieties of these industry-standard telephones and most are compatible with
the 3300 ICP. The 3300 ICP also provides access for analog devices such as fax machines.

The Analog Services Unit (ASU), Analog Main Board (AMB), Analog Options Board (AOB), and
FD Peripheral Node (FD PER) provide connectivity for the analog trunks and telephones to the
system.

There are three ASU variants:

• ASU

• Universal ASU

• ASU II

ASU
The unit houses 24 ONS ports.

Universal ASU
The unit houses 16 ONS ports and four Loop Start trunk ports

ASU II
The unit houses two card slots for either:

• A 16-Port Combo card, containing 12 ONS circuits and 4 Loop Start circuits

• A 16-Port ONS card.

• A 24-Port ONS protected (ONSp) card.

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

System Fail Transfer (SFT)


The Universal ASU provides four integrated SFT relays that provide direct connection
between an analog telephone and Loop Start trunk in the event of a system or power
failure.

The four Loop Start trunks work in conjunction with the last four ONS circuits on the
Universal ASU or the first 4 ONS circuits on the 4 + 12 Port Combo card.

Circuit Identifiers

The ASU connects to the controller by using a Cat5 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cross-over
cable that terminates on an 8-pin modular RJ-45 jack on a Copper Interface Module (CIM) on
the front of the unit.

On the ASUs, the cards on the ASU II, or the AX chassis, a single 25-pair Amphenol cable
provides connection points for the analog circuits.

The Physical Location Identifiers (PLIDs) for the circuits of the ASUs use a 4, 8 or 16 circuit card
identification scheme.

ASUs can be configured in a variety of combinations. For example:

ASU 24 ONS ports


Universal ASU 16 ONS + 4 Loop Start / SFT + MOH + 1 Paging circuit
ASU II Two slots containing either a:
• 4 + 12 Combo card
• 16-Port ONS card
• 24-Port ONSp card

Note
Analog Line licenses must be purchased to use circuits on the ASU II.

The 3300 MXe controller supports up to 12 ASUs through the four internal CIM ports plus eight
ASUs on the CIM ports of two Quad CIM modules.

The 3300 CX and CXi controllers support six ASUs through the first 3 CIM ports on each of two
Quad CIM modules.

Also supported are the embedded AMB on the CX, CXi and MXe, and AOB on the CX and CXi
systems.

The 3300 AX controller supports twelve Analog cards through port 1 on the AX card chassis,
and can host four ASUs on the CIM ports of one Quad CIM module.

Cabinet/Unit numbers must be assigned to the 3300 ASU, Universal ASU and ASU II using a
unit number between 2 and 16.

The FD PER unit houses 12 peripheral interface cards that can be:

• A 16-circuit ONS card

• An 8-circuit OPS card

• A 16-circuit Digital Network Interface Card (DNIC) for connections to multiline SUPERSET
DNIC sets and the single line SUPERSET 4001 sets.
25-pair Amphenol cables (J1 to J8), located on the rear panel of the unit, provide connection
points for all ports.

The FD PER connects to the 3300 controller by using a Fiber Optic cable that terminates on a
Fiber Interface Module (FIM) module located on the front of the controller unit.

The 3300 ICP can support up to four FD PER Units; each can be an expanded cabinet.

Multiline Phones

Multiline phones are proprietary telephones that connect to a TCP/IP Ethernet LAN or a DNI
Line card. They have Personal Keys that can be used as:

• Line Appearances of other directory numbers.

• Speed Dial keys.

• Feature keys.

• Direct Trunk Select keys, to directly access a CO trunk.

• ACD Threshold Indicator keys.


Most installations include multiline phones.

In this module, you will program Multiline Sets in a number of typical business applications.

Multiline Phone Connections


All multiline phones connect to the TCP/IP LAN or to an FD PER DNI Line card.

9-23
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

5x00-series Multiline IP Phones


Each IP phone has a unique IP address, supplied by a DHCP server when the phone boots up.

IP phones are “real time sensitive” network devices that must be installed in a LAN environment
that meets certain minimum delay, jitter, and packet traffic requirements.

Reference
See the 3300 ICP Engineering Guidelines for further details on LAN/WAN
criteria.

On a new install, when first specifying the feature options, use the License and Options
Assignment form to enable up to 1400 user licenses and up to 1400 IP device licenses on a
3300 MXe controller.

IP Phone Boot Sequence


The IP phone sources information from a number of places to eventually deliver phone service
to the user. When powered up, the IP phone:

• Retrieves an IP address and other networking components from a DHCP server.

• Upgrades its firmware if, required. This is normally not required unless the 3300 operating
software has just been upgraded.

• Downloads its main operating software from the TFTP server, which is defined by DHCP.
Normally, this is defined as the 3300 ICP’s IP address.

• Registers its MAC address with a Directory Number on the defined 3300 ICP system. It
communicates via the RTC card to do this.

Registering IP phones
The 3300 ICP call control will only communicate with registered IP phones. The Single Line or
Multiline IP Set Configuration forms associate a Media Access Control (MAC) address of an IP
phone with a programmed DN and Device ID. This assignment allows registration of the IP
phone with the system.

To have IP phones register with the system, you can associate the phones MAC with a DN in
one of two ways:

• Manually enter the valid IP phone’s MAC address prior to connecting the set to the LAN.
When connected, the set will register immediately.
• Connect the set to the LAN and you are prompted to enter a PIN. Enter a Set Registration
Access Code, the directory number to be assigned to the set, followed by the Superkey or
Hold button. The IP Set Configuration form will automatically be updated. The directory
number must already be programmed in the 3300 database in the Single Line or Multiline IP
Set Configuration form.

9-24 Programming and Registering the Sets_rev5.doc


Programming and Registering the Sets

PIN Numbers
Use the System Options Assignment form to specify the:

• Set Registration Access Code – used to register a new IP phone into the system.
• Set Replacement Access Code – used to override an existing registered IP phone.
• Set Registration Security – specifies how many registration attempts a user is allowed.
These codes, along with the desired Directory Number, form a Private Identity Number (PIN) to
be entered during the phone's initial boot up. When properly entered, the MAC Address of the
device will be automatically programmed in the Single Line or Multiline IP Set Configuration
forms.

The Set Replacement Access Code must be programmed, and is used when replacing a
defective set with a new one. It should be used with caution. It is meant to take the MAC
address of a new IP set, which is unknown to the database, and overwrite the MAC address of
an existing set in the database.

The replace activity will not be rejected if the DN specified belongs to a set that is still in service,
even one engaged in a call. The set being replaced must be of the same type.

Types of Keys
Multiline sets have:

• Personal Keys that can:


| Have directory numbers assigned to them.
| Function as feature keys, such as Call Forward Always, Do Not Disturb, Headset
Operation, or Make Busy)
| Function as private speedcall keys that are programmed by the user

• Fixed Function Keys - designed to provide quick access to functions frequently performed
on a multiline telephone, such as a hold button, a transfer/conference button, and a redial
button. Fixed Function keys cannot be reprogrammed.

Multiline Set Extension Numbers

When a multiline set is first programmed, it is assigned a primary directory number. That
directory number is always associated with the Prime Line key on the set.

When a multiline set user calls a display phone or a console from its Prime Line, it is the Prime
Line directory number that appears on the other phone’s or console’s display.

You assign a directory number to a multiline set’s Prime Line in the Multiline DNI or Multiline IP
Set Configuration form.

10-2 Controlling Phone Features With Classes of Service_rev5.doc


Controlling Phone Features With Classes of Service

Classes of Service (COS)

COS programming gives a company the flexibility to tailor feature access to suit employee
requirements.

The Class of Service Options Assignment form is a template of feature and timer options that
you assign to all:

• Stations

• Trunks
COS allows us to enable or disable features, not apply toll control. Some of these features can
stop access to outside calls. Class of Restriction (COR) is used as a means of applying toll
control, and is discussed in another module.

Enabling a feature usually involves assigning a COS option or timer to one or more devices.

Feature options are easier to manage if separate COS numbers are assigned for different users
and their devices, or groups of users. To reduce the chance of error, it is important that you
have an overall plan to follow.

Note
The 3300 ICP provides a maximum of 96 COS instances.

Planning Classes of Service

10-3
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

In this example, the administrator has created a plan specific to their network needs.

• Every set that is added to the database is assigned a COS index number 1 by default. The
administrator customizes COS 1 with minimal features enabled to limit new employees from
accessing advanced features.

• COS numbers 2 through 5 are reserved for general employees that use single line phones.
The administrator may only use COS 2 initially, and then customize the features and timers
according to general employee needs. However, COS 3 through 5 are reserved for future
use in the event that subtle differences are required for certain individuals who use single
line phones.

• COS numbers 6 through 10 are reserved for attendant consoles. Again, the administrator
may only use COS 6 initially, and then customize it according to an attendant’s role.
However, COS 7 through 10 are reserved for future use in the event that subtle differences
are required for certain attendants.

• This same plan continues for other set types within the company. At this point, the
administrator will ensure that they have labeled each COS with a comment identifying the
COS according to the plan.

Programming Classes of Service


To program COS:

• Program all extension numbers in the database.

• Create a COS plan to suit the customer’s needs. Label all COS index numbers in use for
easy administration.

• According to the plan, enable or disable features and adjust timers in each COS that will be
used.

• Assign the appropriate COS index number to the:


| Sets in the Station Service Assignment form.
| Trunks in the Trunk Service Assignment form.

10-4 Controlling Phone Features With Classes of Service_rev5.doc

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Dialed Night Service


There are three operational modes available on the 3300 ICP:

• Day mode

• Night 1 mode

• Night 2 mode
Certain aspects of the system can be configured to behave differently based on the
operational mode.

A COS can be assigned to each of the three modes allowing for varied functionality
based on the time of day.

For example, it is possible to configure the incoming trunk answer point to be the
attendant console when the system is in day mode and to be the guard’s desk when it is
in Night 1 mode.

In another example, a desktop device may be capable of programming call forwarding to


an external number when the system is in day mode. This is done by assigning the
extension a COS option with this feature set to yes in the COS-Day column in the
Station Service Assignment form. Then when the system is in COS-Night 1, the set’s
COS will not allow Call Forwarding-External to be programmed.

Individual Trunk Access


Trunk access lets you access a specific trunk directly by dialing a feature access code
followed by the four-digit trunk number. No toll control or ARS checking is done when
trunk access is used.

Technicians frequently use this feature during trunk programming to verify trunk
functionality. It is enabled by default in all COSs.

Single Lines

A Single Line is a directory number that only appears on one key in the entire system. Single
Lines may be:

• Prime Lines, appearing on the first key on multiline sets.

• Non-Prime Lines, appearing on any key other than the first key.
In the example below, the boss’s phone is assigned a non-prime single line appearance on
1500. With this secondary line, the boss can make or receive calls even while engaged in a call
on the Prime Line on 1002. The planning would look like this.

Multicall Lines

A Multicall Line appearance is a directory number that may appear on more than one set and/or
on two or more keys of the same set and can support simultaneous separate conversations at
each of its appearances. When a new call rings into the number, all idle appearances will ring. If
one set answers, all other appearances of the same number become idle and are available for
use.

With the exception of new calls ringing all appearances, multicall lines cannot be used to
monitor the state of other lines or devices.

The two applications for multicall lines are:

• Multiple appearances of a multicall line on one set

• Single appearances of a multicall line on multiple sets.

All appearances of 1400 may support


their own calls simultaneously.

One set can have many


appearances of a multicall line.

Multiple Multicall Appearances on the Same Set


Multiple appearances of a multicall line on one set allow one person to receive multiple calls to
the same phone number on the same set. Current calls are placed on hold before new calls are
answered. Once the calls are on hold, the person can retrieve and service them in whatever
order they choose.

A set acting as a backup to an Attendant Console can use this functionality when rerouting
incoming calls to various departments.

In the following example, keys one and four are programmed on the same set with directory
number 1002.

appearing again on key 4. the prime line key 1 is in use.

By default, On-Hook Dialing is supported on multiline sets. It is not necessary to obtain dial tone
in order to make a call from a multiline set.

By default, Auto-Hold is supported on multiline sets. When a multiline set is already engaged in
a call on one line, it is possible to answer a second incoming call on a second line without
putting the first call on hold. The first call will be automatically placed on hold.

By default, if a non-prime line is ringing at a multiline set, it is necessary to press that line in
order to answer the call. It is possible to enable Ringing Line Select in the set’s COS to answer
the non-prime line call simply by going off hook.

If a multicall line appears on two or more keys, there may be as many simultaneous calls to the
number as there are key appearances. For example, if there are six keys, six calls can be
handled.

Multicall keys programmed to a configured PKM ring the set on incoming calls, even when the
PKM is not physically connected to the telephone.

Multicall Line Appearing on Multiple Sets


Multicall line appearances on multiple sets help to ensure that simultaneous calls to a common

Key System Line

Multicall Groups and Key System Groups let multiple telephones share the same extension
number. Incoming calls ring all of the idle stations, and the stations stop ringing when one
member answers the call.

Differences Between Key System Lines and Multicall Lines


When a member of a Key System Group answers a call, the line becomes busy since only one
member can use the line at one time. When a member of a Key System Group places a call on
hold, any member of the group can retrieve the call.

When a member of a Multicall Group answers a call, all other appearances of the line become
idle since all group members can use the line simultaneously. When a member of a Multicall
Group places a call on hold, the call can be retrieved only by the set that placed the call on hold.

Direct Station Select (DSS) and Busy Lamp Field (BLF)

Reference
Help > Contents > Features Reference > Features D to G > Direct Station
Selection/Busy Lamp Field (DSS/BLF)

In this module, you have worked with three line types:

• Single line

• Multicall line

• Key system line


Two more line types are available

• DSS/BLF

• Secretarial.
When a Personal Key is configured as a DSS/BLF key, it can have four different functions:

• BLF - the key allows you to monitor the activity status of a directory number
| Idle
| Busy
| Ringing
| Do Not Disturb

• DSS - the key acts as a speed call key to the directory number

• Secretarial Transfer - dial-free, the key allows you to transfer calls without placing the call on
soft hold to that directory number. Press the DSS/BLF key and the call is automatically
transferred.

• Directed Call Pickup - the key allows you to answer calls that are ringing at that directory
number.
The monitored device may be on the same PBX or another PBX within the same cluster linked
via Mitel Services Digital network (MSDN) / Digital Private Network Signaling System (DPNSS).
These concepts are discussed later.

When you program the line type as DSS/Busy Lamp, the key is a DSS key of the associated
directory number while the corresponding appearance displays the status of the monitored
device.

When you program the line type as secretarial, the key allows all of the functions of DSS/Busy
Lamp as well as secretarial transfer of calls on soft hold to the associated directory number.

The DNI phones, PKMs, and the 5000/5200 and 5300 series sets support busy lamps.

If you use the System Administration Tool to program a DSS/BLF key on one key and then use

Feature Keys
You can assign features such as Camp-on, Auto Answer, and Do Not Disturb to any unassigned
Personal Key on the set or PKM. The key becomes a Feature Key. Pressing that key activates
the assigned feature. In most instances, the key works as a toggle key. Pressing the key
enables the feature with a visual indication. Pressing the key again disables the feature.

The 5020/5220/5224 IP Phones have many of these features, such as Callback, Call Forward,
Camp-on, Music, Night Answer, Override, Privacy Release, and Swap, available on their
softkeys, and many accessed by using the Superkey. Features unavailable on the softkeys can
be programmed against any spare Personal Keys.

The 5010/5212/5215 IP phones do not have feature softkeys. You can assign any of the
features to spare Personal Keys on these sets.

In this example, the features Auto Answer, Do Not Disturb, and Callback are programmed on

Call History

Mitel offers options for viewing Call History for a range of IP sets. This feature lets you use the
set keys and display to view information about calls made and received.

The supported devices include:

• 5xxx IP Phones

• 5xxx IP Appliances

• 6600 Your Assistant and 6600 Your Assistant PRO.


The 5235 and 5240 IP Phones have the Call Logs application. Thus, Call History display is not
supported for these phones.

Call History for 5xxx IP Phones


This feature causes the system to log up to 20 missed, external answered incoming calls, and
external outgoing calls for the device.

Users can retrieve:

• Name of the incoming caller, if available

• Name of the called party on outgoing calls

• Start time of the call

• Type of call
| Missed calls
| Incoming calls
| Outgoing calls
Phone users can:

• Filter their record views by call type

• Delete old records

• Return missed calls by pressing a softkey or a feature key

• Prefix ARS digits required to make external calls. Users can also add or subtract prefix digits
manually.
Hot-desk users can maintain their call history recording, and can view their call history record,
even when logged into another extension.

A call is only logged at the phone whose prime line is called. For example, if a phone with prime
line 2000 answers an incoming call to multicall extension 2001, the call is only logged at the
phone whose prime line is 2001.

To program call history, navigate to the System Administration > System Options > System

System Options Assignment


You can add up to seven digits in the Outgoing External Call Prefix For Applications
field. Any digits will be accepted.

When the user presses the Call button while reviewing a Call History record, the system
attempts to make the call. For call attempts to external destinations, the ability to auto-
prefix the necessary digits to complete the call is provided.

For call attempts to external destinations:

• If the user edits the digits stored in a Call History record and then presses the Call
button, an attempt to make the call is made without any auto-prefixing or digit translation
checks.
• If the user presses the Call button to make a call to an external destination and does not
edit any of the stored digits, then a call attempt is made.
• If the dialed digit string is in ARS, then the call is processed without any changes to the
digits.
• If the dialed digit string is not in ARS, then the digits programmed in the Outgoing
External Call Prefix are inserted and the call is processed with the changed digits. If this
fails, an error message is displayed for a few seconds and the user shall then be shown
the Edit Number screen.
• If the auto-prefix capability is unable to successfully complete a Call History number,
then you may need to add additional ARS programming. For instance, DID trunk calls
that are long distance numbers will probably fail to auto-complete because the Prefix for
Outgoing Trunk Calls may be set to complete local PSTN calls. For example, Prefix = 9.

Connect a PC to a 2-Port IP Phone

With the introduction of the 5010 and 5020 IP Phones, you only need one Ethernet drop to the
desktop for both your voice and data devices.

The following are dual port sets:

• 5010

• 5020

• 5212

• 5215

• 5220

• 5224

• 5230

• 5140

• 5235

• 5240

• 5312

• 5324

• 5330

• 5340
You can consolidate the drop because the phones incorporate a 2-port Ethernet switch that
provides LAN connectivity to both the phone and a second data device, such as a PC.

You don’t need to do any programming for the 2-port switch. It supports connection to a 10/100
Base-T Ethernet network.

Using the Locate and Load Maintenance Commands

Sometimes it is necessary to locate a particular set and remotely reset it.

Locate Maintenance Command


The LOCATE EXT <NNNN> maintenance command displays the physical location of a line for a
given extension number NNNN.

The LOCATE ALL FREE command, with its qualifiers, identifies directory numbers or location
IDs that have not been assigned.

For example:

LOC ALL FREE DN 4000 to 4200

LOCATE FIRST FREE DN 4000 to 4200

Use the TYPE *.LOCATE.FREE_DN command to view the free DNs listed in this file.

LOCATE: Warning! file *.LOCATE.FREE_DN will be overwritten.


4006 - 4009
4011 - 4019
4021 - 4139
4141 - 4143
4145 - 4200
The free DNs within the given range can be found in .LOCATE.FREE_DN.
The first available DN within the given range is: 4006

The LOCATE FEATURE EXT <NNNN> command provides a list of active features for a
specified extension number or PLID.

For example:

LOCATE FEATURE EXT 4000

Use the LOC NUM 4000 command to see the device, hunt group, and path to which the DN is
associated.

Phone Lock

An IP phone can be locked to prevent access to certain features. The exceptions are:

• Unlocking the set with a user PIN.

• Hot Desk Login and Logout.

• Emergency Call Notification.


Phone lock has no effect on incoming calls, but restricts outgoing calls, except:

• Calls to emergency trunk routes.

• Local operators.
Most keys on the set are disabled, except the dial pad and volume keys. Superkey access, the
settings shutter, softkeys, feature access keys, applications access, and account codes are
disabled when the set is locked.

The ability to pick the handset up to answer a ringing call remains. If the set has Ringing Line
Select enabled in its COS, non-prime lines can be answered by going off-hook. Calls to the
prime line can be answered by pressing the prime line key. Pressing non-prime line keys is
ignored.

All other features like headset, application interaction, or normal telephone service are barred.

When a set is locked, all line appearances will continue to receive calls as usual. Line keys
cannot be pressed to answer calls. The only way to answer a call is to physically go off-hook.

Phone lock with lockout status is supported by the following screen-based IP phones:

• 5212
• 5215
• 5220
• 5224
• 5235
• 5304
• 5312
• 5324
• 5330
• 5340
• Navigator
Single line IP sets, analog sets, and SIP sets are supported, but there is no indication on the set
to inform about the locked status.
11-55
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Users lock and unlock the set by either pressing a phone lock feature key or entering a phone
lock feature access code. A PIN number is required when unlocking the set. A blank PIN is
supported. For hot desk users, the PIN number is the same as their normal login PIN.

Use the Locate Feature Ext <extension number> maintenance command to determine the lock
status for a phone.

Phone Lock Exceptions


The following are some exceptions to the phone lock feature:

• All shutters on the 5235 IP phone remain active while in the locked state.

• SIP sets do not provide any indication to the user that the set is locked.

• SIP sets support phone lock through feature access codes only.

• Sets that cannot have feature access keys can support phone lock through feature access
codes.

• All keys on the SIP set, including Superkey and Settings, remain enabled while the set is
locked. Only outgoing calls are restricted while the set is locked.

• The 5304 has only one feature key with a lamp. If a feature access key for phone lock is
programmed on this set, subsequent feature keys programmed will not have a lamp
available.

• A GUI replacement is available on the 5330 and 5340 sets. It is intended for use in hotels
and other public places to provide a more intuitive interface for users. The GUI covers the
call control soft prompt area. If the softkeys are not visible while entering a user PIN to
unlock a set, the # key can be used to indicate that the PIN entry is complete.

MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

12-2 Telephone Directory_rev4.doc


Telephone Directory

The Telephone Directory

The telephone directory is an information database of all the directory numbers in the system.
Each directory number has information associated with it, such as name, department, and
location.

Display set users can use the Phonebook feature to search the telephone directory for names.
They can scroll through the directory on their LCD displays until they get the name they want,
and can call the desired party by pressing a softkey.

Attendant Console Operators access the Telephone Directory through the Phonebook feature.
They can search for a person by name, department, location, number, or any combination of
these. All search matches are listed on the screen. The Operator can then select the required
party and place the call with one keystroke.

The preferred way to enter names in the Telephone Directory is:

Lastname,Firstname, with no space before or after the comma.

If you use this format, the attendant can search for names by using either the first or last name.
Display phone users can search for names by using the last name followed by the first name or
initial.

Some departments have many people but only one phone. You can assign all their names to
the same phone in the Telephone Directory. However, when calling from the phone, only one of
the names appears in the called set’s display. That name is either the first one you assigned to
the phone or the name with Prime Name set to yes in the Telephone Directory Assignment
form.

In the case where this multi-user phone might represent a group or department, consider adding
an entry to the telephone directory to represent this group and then making it the prime name.

For those individuals who do not wish their number to be displayed on the set’s LCD, it is
possible to mark the entry as Private in the Telephone Directory Assignment form. When the
entry is marked private and a call is made to or from that number, only the name shows on the
LCD. If an end-user uses the Superkey Phonebook function to search for the private entry, the
LCD will display No Such Entry. If the 5550 IP Console Phonebook application is used to
search for the private entry, the full entry will be displayed with a padlock icon indicating the
need to keep the extension number private.

12-3
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

The Telephone Directory Assignment form is used to label more than prime extension numbers.
Some examples are:

• External numbers

• Hunt group or ring group numbers

• Multicall or key system numbers

• Non-prime single line numbers

• System Speed Call numbers

• ACD agent IDs

• ACD paths

Programming the Attendant Consoles

In this example, the customer wants to have two Attendant Consoles installed and programmed
with prime numbers 3010 and 3015 on softkey 7. The remaining softkeys should be
programmed as Answer Points. Softkey 1 is reserved for Recall.

the prime DN appears.

The six console softkeys act


as DNs that the attendant
can answer.

This is the prime number of


the console. It appears on
the softkey that was assigned
in the IP Console
Configuration form.

DNs must be programmed against these keys to permit calls to be directed to them.
The numbers may be answer points for internal calls to the operator or for calls from the public
network. The numbers can be shared across multiple consoles.

Attendant Softkey Programming Example

By directing various call types to different console softkeys, you permit the Attendant to handle
calls on a priority basis and answer them appropriately.

In this example, two call types arrive at the Attendant Console at the same time. The softkeys
enable the Attendant to differentiate between the two call types.

• Toll-free calls arrive on softkey F5 labeled ABC Co. The Attendant responds, “Good
morning... ABC Company.”

• Internal dial 0 calls arrive on softkey F2 labeled Operator. The Attendant responds, “Good
morning... Operator.”
The Softkey labels enable the Attendant to answer external toll-free calls before internal
operator calls to provide better customer service.

Multi-Attendant Operator Recall

In an attendant group where the DN of each attendant console appears as a softkey on the
other consoles, recalls are presented to all attendants.

By enabling Recall If Transferred to Original Call Destination in the attendant’s COS, recalls are
presented only to the attendant who originally handled the call.

This behavior applies to DID calls to extensions that are rerouted to attendants, or sets, using
Call Rerouting. Call Rerouting is discussed later.

Directed Call Pickup of Attendant Calls

In the Class of Service Options Assignment form, enable Allow Directed Call Pickup of
Attendant Call to allow an extension user to answer calls to an attendant console, except recalls
and callbacks, by using the Call Pickup - Directed feature and dialing the console prime line
number.

The console must have Call Pickup - Directed: Accept enabled in its COS for its calls to be
picked up.

Attendant BLF Display

The 5550 IP Console allows an attendant to monitor the Busy Lamp Field (BLF) status of
extensions from the Busy Lamp Field Tools panel. Before transferring an incoming call to an
extension, an attendant can view the status of the extension and determine if the extension is
available to accept the call.

The attendant can press the F12 Call button to call an extension selected in the BLF table, or
select the entry.

You can create and add multiple lists of BLFs to the BLF window and then edit the lists to add
and remove directory numbers or change their list membership.

BLF Icon

13-26 Attendant Consoles_rev4.doc


Attendant Consoles

When the IP Console application starts, the system sends a list of all monitored DNs, meaning
any DN that appears on a DSS/BLF key on any set or PKM in the 3300 database. The PC
caches this data.

Note
This feature is not supported in a resilient system. If a resilient 5550 IP
console fails over to its secondary controller, the BLF list functionality is
disabled. Resiliency is discussed in the Advanced course and Enterprise
Manager course.

The BLF feature is enabled by default on the 5550 IP Console. Access the BLF settings by
selecting Tools and then Options on the 5550 Console menu bar. By default, BLF files are
shared among multiple 5550 IP Consoles, but in the BLF settings pop-up window, it is also
possible to point to a private BLF file folder.

13-27
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

Creating / Editing the BLF List


In order to use the BLFs within the console application, one or more BLF lists must be created.
Select Directories, Edit BLF List from the 5550 IP Console menu bar. In the Edit BLF List pop-
up window:

• Select Create and give the BLF list a name.


• Use the radio button to specify if it will be Private or Shared.
• Select the names to be added to the list and click on Add, followed by Apply.
• If required, other lists can also be created.
When a BLF monitor is added or deleted, the system informs all IP Consoles that are in service
and have BLF active that a change was made so they update their cached data. A BLF monitor
is added when a DN is assigned to either a local or remote DSS/BLF key on a set or PKM. The
details will be reflected on the BLF display once the attendant re-enters the BLF panel.

Using the BLF Field


Once the BLF lists have been created, the BLFs can be viewed within the 5550 IP console
application by selecting the BLF tab. On the left side of the tab is a list of all the BLF lists
created, both Private and Shared. The individual lists can be used to speed up the search for a
monitored extension in order for the attendant to determine their current status.

In this example, the attendant has selected the BLF list for everyone. All the sets are idle.

Overnight Re-Synchronization Activity


A 5550 IP console that is left running overnight will request the data from the controller starting
at 5:00 a.m. It uses the 5550 IP console application's PC time, not the controller time. The IP
console will receive and cache an up-to-date copy of BLF members and their associated
directory details.

The console operator ID is used to stagger the requests. Combine the 5 o'clock hour with the ID
to form the hour/minute time.

For example, the console with ID 11 will request the data at 5:11 am. Note the ID of an
attendant is the first two reoccurring digits of the Hold index numbers found in the Hold Window,
which are 111, 112, and so on, in the figure below.

This data includes:

• Monitored DN

• Privacy flag

• Name

• Department

• Location

• Current BLF status.


13-29
MCD for 3300 ICP Basic Installation and Maintenance Course

The BLF status is displayed in the Phonebook view if the DN returned from a phonebook search
matches a cached monitored DN.

BLF Source Directory


When you edit the BLF List, you select DNs from a list of monitored DNs that are provided by
the system.

A monitored DN is any DN that appears on a DSS/BLF key on any set or PKM in the system,
and can be any of the following:

• Real

• Virtual

• Local

• Remote.
The sets and PKMs need not be physically installed and can remain as virtual devices. A virtual
device is programmed in the system and isn't physically connected.

Note
You can program the virtual PKMs against any IP phone extension in the
system that is capable of supporting PKMs. Therefore, you should record
which IP phones provide the busy lamp field indication.

There is no programming associated between the phones with the virtual PKMs and the 5550 IP
Consoles.

13-30 Attendant Consoles_rev4.doc


Attendant Consoles

To provide a BLF list that has the default maximum of 439 entries, at least four 5224 IP sets are
needed. Each set, with a Dual PKM assigned and 23 available programmable set keys, can
provide a total of 119 possible DSS/BLF keys per set.

You can use Resource Dimensioning to increase this maximum to 5000 BLF groups.
