Step 4
In the Trunk Group drop-down menu, select the name of the SMDI
trunk group that you created earlier. This tells the server the name of
the trunk group from which it should expect to receive voice mail calls.
Step 5 In the COM Port field, enter the numerical value (from 1-10) that
corresponds to the serial port of the ShoreTel server where you will be
connecting the serial port. (This serial port will be used to route out-of-
band SMDI signaling information between the PBX link device and the
ShoreTel server.)
Step 6 The Message Desk Number, which has a range of 1-999, is optional and
can be set to the default value of 1. Check with the vendor for this
value.
NOTE The Message Desk Number is used to indicate a specific system
in situations where a number of SMDI links have been daisy-chained
together. This value allows each system to known which data belongs
to it. In most case this parameter is set to 1, since only one system will
be using the SMDI link.
