Provisioning Lines
This chapter describes the individual and batch procedures used to provision lines on the NE, and includes the following sections:
Individual Line Provisioning:
Batch Line Provisioning:
You can provision lines from the line provision window.
 |
Note While provisioning lines, confirm your most recent action by clicking the Refresh button at the bottom of the screen to refresh the window display. |
To open this window from Cisco 6700 NodeView, double-click the LED in the icon of the line to be provisioned (the line icon turns orange when the mouse is positioned over it). (See Figure 7-1.)
