• Maintenance: Program call cost, freeze zones, message print, and SMDR
information, if applicable.
• Numbering Plan: Program toll restriction area flags, emergency number
information, toll strings, classes of service, and user groups (area flags and user
groups are not applicable to European systems). Also set up ARS route groups,
dial rules, and facility groups.
• Endpoint-Related Information: Program account codes, attendants, endpoint
flags, button assignments, message centers, Do-Not-Disturb and Reminder
Messages, primary attendants, system forwarding paths, and System Speed Dial.
• Trunk Call Routing Tables: Program call routing tables.
• System Timers: Program system timers, as needed.
10. When you have finished programming, save the database. See page 5-91.
Private IP Networking Programming Guidelines
System software provides a networking wizard to simplify the required programming for private
networking. Refer to the Mitel 5000 Features and Programming Guide, part number 580.8006,
for information on the networking wizard.
The Internet Protocol Resource (IPRA) application relies on a unique numbering plan to make
connections across the network. You must assign each Processor Module (and if applicable, the
Processor Expansion Card) in the network a unique extension that the other Processor Modules
must be able to recognize. For this reason, Mitel strongly suggests that you use the P6XXY
numbering convention, where XX is the node number and Y is the IPRA number. For example,
if the IPRA is the second IPRA on node 1, the extension number would be P6012.
You should also complete the IP Networking Planning Sheet (see “Private Networking” on
page A-1) before you begin programming IP networking. The Private Networking section
includes programming examples. If you do not follow a numbering convention and identify the
extensions before you program the IPRAs, it will be difficult to successfully set up your network.
To program IP private networking:
1. Program the system for IP (Private Networking). Refer to the Mitel 5000 Features and
Programming Guide, part number 580.8006.
If necessary, choose a “P6XXY” extension where XX is the node number where the IP
resource resides and Y is the IP resource number. A default extension (P6000) is
provided, but it may need to be changed if the same extension already exists. If using
the Processor Expansion Card (PEC), the default extension is P6001.
2. Program the IP Connection: The IP resource screen contains a link to the IP resource
IP connection. Whenever the system creates an IP connection, the system broadcasts
the IP information to the other nodes as a database update, and the new IP connection
becomes an off-node device on the other nodes (provided the remote node does not
block the database change such as when a DB Programming session is active on the
remote node). This does not automatically configure the IP resources for use by the
network. You must manually program networking parameters locally as well as on each
remote node.
3. Program the IP Connection for the remote node: You can also create IP connections
to represent IPRAs on other nodes within the network. To see these off-node IP
connection fields, you must have a node created in System\Devices and Feature
Codes\Nodes.
NOTE
The extension you assign to each IP resource must reflect the node where
the IP resource resides. If it does not, it will be difficult to establish the IP
connections between IP resources on a multi-node system. This numbering
convention also limits the number of networking IP resources within a
private network to 1000.
