SETTING UP LINE HUNT GROUPS
If a VoIP-enabled TalkSwitch unit is present, line hunt group 88 uses the
TalkSwitch VoIP network by default, and the other line hunt groups use telephone
lines. You can modify these default settings as described on page 24.
Note that the user does not have to dial the line hunt group number before VoIP
numbers 250–299: these automatically use the TalkSwitch VoIP network.
If 50 VoIP numbers aren’t enough for the network, you can set up longer VoIP
numbers. To reach a longer VoIP number, the user will first dial a line hunt
group number.
A local extension can be restricted to a set of line hunt groups in order to control
access to VoIP networks. See Hunt group permissions in Chapter 2 of the
TalkSwitch User Guide.
ADVANCED VOIP CONFIGURATION
Optionally, perform advanced VoIP configuration.
1. The default preferred codec is G.729. You can select the Preferred codec for the
TalkSwitch profile. All locations must use the same codec. See Setting codec
options on page 21.
2. VoIP calls use extension names for caller ID by default. You can set the source
for VoIP caller ID at each location. The same setting will be used by the
TalkSwitch profile and all service provider profiles. See Setting up caller ID on
page 25.
3. All VoIP lines are shared by default. You can reserve VoIP lines for the
TalkSwitch profile at each location. See Reserving VoIP lines on page 26.
SAVING SETTINGS TO TALKSWITCH
To transfer settings from your computer to the TalkSwitch system, choose File >
Save. A window appears indicating the configuration is being sent.
IMPORTANT: Ensure at least one line hunt group uses telephone lines that can
reach emergency services.
