Configuration manual
8. At each of the extensions, dial the log out short code set on the B5800 Branch
Gateway system. The default is *36.
9. If either user is configured for Forced Login, they will have to complete the login
process at their new extension using their Login Code.
About changing extension numbers
The default configuration for a new B5800 Branch Gateway system numbers each extension
in sequence, going by module and port order, starting from 201. An extension entry is created
in the configuration and also an associated user entry. A similar process occurs when a new
extension expansion module is detected.
Important:
Extension versus User: It is important to understand that "extension number" is a user
setting that belongs to and moves with the user. For example, a user can login at any phone
and that phone then temporarily assumes the user's extension number and settings until
they log off. The Base Extension value set for extensions in the B5800 Branch Gateway
configuration indicates the default associated user of the extension. It is not the extension
number of that port.
Renumbering all extensions and users
About this task
Use this procedure to shift all user extension numbers up or down by a set amount. Any settings
linked to those numbers are adjusted including extension Base Extension settings. It does not
affect hunt group extension numbers.
Warning:
This procedure alters extension settings and therefore requires a system reboot when the
configuration is sent to the B5800 Branch Gateway.
Procedure
1. Select Tools > Extension Renumber.
2. In the Renumber window, in the Value field, enter the amount by which you want to
shift the current extension numbering of extensions and users.
3. Click Add or Subtract as appropriate.
4. Click OK.
