For the system to have a consecutive numbering plan, make sure that the line
cards are in consecutive card slots in the Option 11C Mini chassis.
If you arrange the line cards consecutively, the preassigned telephone
extensions automatically configure during telephone activation. You do not
have to manually enter the extensions.
Using the Meridian Mail Mini Auto-configure feature
The Meridian Mail Mini Auto-configure feature automatically matches
Meridian Mail Mini mailboxes with telephone extensions. If you have the
Meridian Mail Mini card option and you want to use the Meridian Mail Mini
Auto-configure feature, make sure
• The numbering plan is consecutive.
• The first number in the Option 11 system and the Meridian Mail Mini
system are the same.
