To administer remote mac hines or telep hone numb ers for the AMIS Analog  
Networking  and /or Messag e Delivery features: 
1. For a new mac hine profile, enter add machine
 
 on the 
c ommand  line and  p ress  . The mac hine name must b e 1- to 
10-alp hanumeric  c harac ters sp ec ifying  a unique name in the network. 
Ty p e  change machine
 
 to mod ify an existing  remote 
mac hine p rofile, or type remove machine
 
 to d elete a 
remote mac hine from the network. Onc e d eleted , a mac hine must be 
re-administered to be added back to the network. 
2. Go throug h the following  sc reen fields b y p ressing  the   or arrow keys, 
and  c hang e any fields need ed to imp lement the AMIS Analog  Networking  
and /or Messag e Delivery features: 
a. Mac hine Typ e 
Enter the typ e of c onnec tion you are ad ministering  for this remote 
system or numb er. 
— Enter amisac
 to selec t AMIS c asual (two-step ) ad d ressing . 
— Enter amisap
 to selec t AMIS p re-ad ministered  (one-step )

d . Extension Leng th 
The extension leng th dep end s on the feature you are ad ministering. 
Valid  entries are the d ig its 3 throug h 10. 
—For 
amisac mac hines (AMIS c asual or two-step  ad d ressing), 
this field  sp ec ifies how many d igits entered by sub sc rib ers 
for an AMIS ad d ress are ac tually d ialed  b y the loc al system. 
For examp le, if the extension leng th is “ 7” , the DEFINITY 
AUDIX system d ials the d ial string  (if any) followed  b y the 
last seven d ig its of the numb er a sub sc rib er enters as the 
AMIS ad d ress to the remote voic e mail system (
not the 
remote mailb ox ID). The AMIS p refix is not d ialed . 
—For 
amisap mac hines (AMIS pre-ad ministered  or one-step  
ad d ressing), this field sp ec ifies the numb er of d ig its req uired  
to id entify a remote mailb ox ID (the extension leng th typ ic ally 
matc hes the extension leng th of the remote switc h). 
—For 
calld machines (messag e delivery), this field  specifies 
how many dig its entered  b y subsc rib ers for a messag e 
d elivery add ress are ac tually d ialed  b y the loc al system. For 
examp le, if the extension leng th is “ 10” , the loc al system 
d ials the d ial string  (if any) followed  b y the last ten d ig its of 
the numb er a sub sc rib er enters as a messag e d elivery 
address. 
e. Voice ID 
This d isp lay-only field  is b lank until you have suc c essfully ad d ed  
this mac hine. Then, the system automatic ally assig ns a numb er that 
it assoc iates with the name frag ment for this remote mac hine. This 
id entifier is used  when rec ording  the name of the remote system. 
f. Default Community 
This field identifies the default community of the subsc ribers on this 
remote AMIS mac hine (those sub sc rib ers who are ab le to 
exc hang e voic e mail messag es as p ermitted  on the 
System-Parameters Send ing -Restric tions sc reen). You c an overrid e 
a c ommunity restric tion for ind ivid ual sub sc rib ers using  the 
Remote-Subsc riber screen.

g . AD D RESS RAN G ES 
Ad minister the ad d ress rang es for the remote mac hines or 
individ ual remote telep hone numb ers ac c ord ing to the p lan you 
worked  out in Chap ter 2, Planning  and  Desig n. The total ad dress 
rang e (p refix p lus extension) c an b e up  to 24 c harac ters long. 
— Address prefix (optional): For the address prefixes you want 
sub sc rib ers to d ial, the first d ig it of the Prefix field  
must 
matc h the AMIS Prefix field  (if you entered  a p refix on the 
System-Parameters Analog -Network sc reen). Ad d itionally, 
the p refix may c ontain a c ountry c od e and /or area c od e or 
the mnemonic  for a remote loc ation (0 to 21 alphanumeric  
c harac ters may be entered). For examp le, if the AMIS prefix 
is “ 7” , the ad d ress prefix c ould  b e “ 7201” . 
Generally, p refixes are 
not rec ommend ed  in a DCS network. 
Otherwise, ad d ress p refixes are rec ommend ed  to help  
sub sc rib ers d isting uish among  remote voic e mail systems 
(the ad d ress prefix is typed  b y sub sc rib ers whenever they 
ad d ress an AMIS analog networking  and /or messag e 
d elivery messag e). 
In ad d ition to the ad d ress rang es that sp ec ify the d ig its that 
sub sc rib ers must enter, the loc al system also req uires an 
ad d ress rang e that uniq uely id entifies the hunt g roup  
numb er (c allb ac k number) of the remote voic e mail system. 
If the remote mac hine has a different c ountry c od e, the 
ad d ress rang e must c ontain the c ountry c ode, area/trunk 
c od e, and hunt g roup. If the remote mac hine has a d ifferent 
area or trunk c od e, only the area/trunk c od e and  hunt g roup  
are need ed  (the c ountry c od e should  b e omitted ). If the 
remote system is loc al, only the hunt g roup  numb er should  
ap p ear for that mac hine. If the remote mac hine c an b e 
ac c essed  throug h a p rivate network, the network-ac c ess 
code and hunt group for the remote machine should appear 
in the address prefix list instead. 
— Ad d ress extensions (req uired ): Enter the numb ers that 
d efine the mailb ox extensions that c an b e used  on the 
remote system or the sp ec ific  remote telephone numb ers 
you want loc al sub sc rib ers to ac c ess in the Start Ext. and  
End  Ext. field s. Valid  entries c an b e from 3 to 10 d ig its. 
Up  to ten d ifferent rang es c an b e sp ec ified . The leng th of the 
start and  end  extensions must ag ree with the number shown 
in the Extension Leng th field  (lead ing  zeros may b e need ed  
to c onform to this requirement). The end  extension must b e 
eq ual to or g reater than the start extension. If you sp ec ify the 
same numb er as the starting  and end ing  extension, a uniq ue 
mac hine or telep hone numb er is sp ec ified  (this is usually 
used  to id entify the hunt g roup  numb er of a remote 
mac hine).

AMIS ad d ress rang es and  messag e d elivery ad d ress rang es must 
b e uniq ue; they c annot overlap  with other AMIS analog  networking  
and /or messag e d elivery ad d ress rang es. See Chap ter 2, Planning  
and  Desig n, for d etails. 
NOTE:
The Warnings field  ind ic ates when a d up lic ate or overlapp ing  
range is being assigned. If you get a warning message, 
d isp lay the List Ad d ress-Rang es sc reen to c hec k whic h 
extension numb ers are in use, then refer to Chapter 2, 
Planning and Design, to selec t ap prop riate rang es. 
h. Press   (F7) to d isp lay Pag e 2. 
i. Dial String  
Typ e the string  the loc al system should  d ial in ord er to send  
messag es to this remote mac hine. Valid  entries vary for d ifferent 
network c onnec tion typ es as follows: 
—amisac (optional): For 
amisac mac hines (AMIS c asual or 
two-step  add ressing ), the d ial string is op tional. If used , it 
may b e from 0 to 24 c harac ters and  c onsists of any numb ers 
the system should  ad d  to the number sub sc rib ers d ial to 
reac h a spec ific  ad d ress. The d ial string  p lus the extension 
must b e less than or eq ual to 29 c harac ters. 
For a rang e of loc al numb ers, the d ial string  might b e “ 9”  (or 
whatever trunk-ac c ess c od e or d ial-ac c ess c od e is 
assig ned  to reac h the p ub lic  network). For examp le, if the 
extension length is “ 7”  and  a sub sc rib er spec ifies a valid  
7-d ig it ad d ress (suc h as 555-6000), the loc al system would  
d ial 95556000 to reac h the remote mac hine. 
For a rang e of long -d istanc e numb ers, the d ial string  would  
normally be 91 in the United  States (the trunk- or d ial-ac c ess 
c od e followed  b y 1). For examp le, if the extension leng th is 
10 and  a sub sc rib er sp ec ifies a valid 10-d ig it ad d ress (suc h 
as 201-555-6000), the loc al system would  d ial 
912015556000 to reac h the remote mac hine. 
— amisap  (req uired): For 
amisap machines (AMIS 
p re-ad ministered or one-step ad d ressing ), the d ial string  is 
req uired. It c an b e up  to 65 c harac ters long , and  typ ic ally 
c onsists of the trunk-ac c ess c od e or d ial-ac c ess c od e 
need ed  to reac h the p ub lic  or p rivate network, followed  b y a 
p ause interval, followed  b y the c omp lete telep hone numb er 
of the remote machine. For example, in Fig ure 4-12, AMIS 
Pre-Administered  Add ressing  to a Sp ec ific  Mac hine — Pag e 
2, the loc al system would d ial 912015556000 to reac h the 
remote system.

— c alld  (op tional): For calld (messag e d elivery), the op tional 
d ial string  is d efined  in the same manner as for AMIS 
two-step  add ressing  (refer to the 
amisac description). 
NOTE:
You c an instruc t the loc al system to p ause for a 
sp ec ified  leng th of time by entering  “P”
 (inc luding  
q uotes) in the dial string . A single “ P”  c auses the 
system to p ause ap proximately 1.5 sec ond s; a “ P”  
followed  b y a dig it from 1 to 9 c auses the system to 
wait the sp ec ified  amount of time. For examp le, if d ial 
string  is 9” P2” 5556000, the loc al system dials 9, waits 
ab out 3 sec ond s, then d ials 5556000. 
j. Callbac k Number 
On R3.0 and  later systems, sp ec ify whic h c allb ac k numb er (from 1 
to 5) this remote mac hine should  use to c all the loc al mac hine. The 
selec ted  c allb ac k numb er must first b e ad ministered  on the 
System-Parameters Analog -Network sc reen. The d efault value is 
“1”. 
The Choic es field s are d isp lay-only field s; these field s show whic h 
c allb ac k numb er is assig ned  to whic h identifier (1 throug h 5). On 
R1.0 and  R2.0 systems, these field s d o not ap p ear (only one 
c allb ac k numb er c an b e assig ned  p rior to R3.0). When the loc al 
system d elivers an AMIS message to this remote mac hine, it will 
use the sp ec ified  c allb ac k numb er in the p rotoc ol. 
k. Messag e Transmission Sc hed ule, start 
Enter the hours and  minutes in the start and  end  field s to sp ec ify 
one or more c yc les (time period s) when the loc al system should  
attemp t to send  messages to this remote AMIS system. Valid 
entries are times from 00:00 to 23:59. 
Up  to three c yc les c an b e d efined  for eac h remote system. Cyc les 
may b e assig ned  to avoid  toll fac ilities or period s of heavy traffic  if 
d esired . The total time of the c yc les c annot exc eed  24 hours. 
Cyc les c annot overlap . A c yc le c an sp an ac ross mid nig ht. 
NOTE:
The times sp ec ified  must b e eq ual to or a sub set of the 
outc alling  transmission times ad ministered on the 
System-Parameters Outc alling  sc reen or the AMIS and /or 
messag e d elivery messag es will never b e sent. For instanc e, 
if you sched ule AMIS and  messag e delivery messag es to b e 
sent anytime d uring  a 24-hour p eriod  (00:00 to 23:59), b ut 
outc alling  period s are only sc hed uled  from 07:00 to 18:00, the 
AMIS and  messag e delivery messag es will only b e sent 
b etween the hours of 7:00 AM and  6:00 PM.

If all the outc alling  p orts are b usy, the system retries in one minute. 
If an outc alling  p ort is availab le, b ut for some reason the system 
c annot d eliver the messag e, the system uses the RESCHEDULING 
INCREMENTS FOR UNSUCCESSFUL MESSAGE DELIVERY
 
sp ec ified  on the System-Parameters Features sc reen. 
AMIS messag e delivery is d one in p ac kets of 9 to satisfy the AMIS 
stand ard . Prior to R2.0, however, the system d id  not immed iately 
resc hed ule any messag es still left in the q ueue for immediate 
d elivery, b ut waited  until the next transmission interval sc heduled 
on the System-Parameters Features sc reen. On R2.0 and  later 
systems, any messag es left in the q ueue are resc hed uled  for 
immed iate d elivery after the first 9 are transmitted; the loc al system 
c alls the remote system ag ain within 2 minutes and  transmits any 
ad d itional AMIS messag es it may have q ueued . 
l. Send  to Non-Ad ministered  Rec ip ients? 
If this field  is set to “ y”  (the d efault), when a sub sc rib er ad dresses a 
messag e to a remote extension that d oes not map  to an ad d ress 
known b y the loc al system, the loc al system ad ds this p otential 
sub sc rib er to its d ata b ase, then send s the messag e to every 
remote system in the network for whic h the add ress is valid. If a 
valid  remote rec ip ient c annot b e found, the sub sc rib er rec ord  is 
d eleted  eventually by one of the system aud its and  the loc al system 
changes the status of the message from 
und elivered to 
undeliverable in the sender’s outgoing voic e mailbox. 
For AMIS one-step  systems and  messag e d elivery: If this field  is set 
to “ n” , sub sc rib ers c an only send  messag es to ad ministered  
remote subsc rib ers. If a sub sc riber enters a valid  extension or 
telep hone numb er (b ut one whic h has not b een ad ministered ), the 
sub sc rib er is notified  that the entry is invalid . 
For AMIS two-step  systems: This field  
must be set to “y” because all 
remote subsc ribers on these systems are nonad ministered. Setting  
the field  to “ n”  p revents all AMIS c asual messag es from b eing  
d elivered  on DEFINITY AUDIX systems. 
NOTE:
Permitting sub sc rib ers to send messag es to nonad ministered  
rec ip ients may have a sig nific ant imp ac t on the network, 
c ausing extra or unnec essary c alls to other systems and  
load ing  the loc al sub sc rib er d ata b ase with unneed ed  
rec ords. If the network is kep t up -to-d ate, c hang e this field  to 
“ n” to reduce the system load. Often, messag es to 
nonad ministered rec ip ients simp ly ind ic ate a misd ialed 
numb er.
