Assign ERLs to new or changed switch ports |
If switches are added to the network, or if modules with additional ports are added to existing switches, assign the new ports ERLs. |
Switch port configuration |
Create ERLs as required |
As your business expands, create new ERLs as required. Work with the telephony administrators to obtain ELINs for the ERLs, and with the network administrator to get the new switches defined in Emergency Responder. |
|
Export ALI data and submit to your service provider |
If you make changes to ALI data, add or remove ERLs, or change the ELINs assigned to an ERL (for example, by adding or removing them), export the ALI and resubmit it to your service provider. |
|
Audit the manually defined phones |
Regularly check your manual phone definitions to ensure each phone is still assigned to the correct ERL. Work with the telephony administrator to get notification of any adds, moves, or changes that involve these phones. Add phones as required. |
|
Audit the unlocated phones list |
Regularly audit the unlocated phones list, and work with the network administrator to determine why Cisco Emergency Responder cannot locate the phones and to resolve the problems. |
|
Add new onsite personnel or remove old ones; update phone numbers |
As onsite alert personnel are added, define them in Cisco Emergency Responder and assign them to the appropriate ERLs. Likewise, as personnel are removed, remove them from their ERLs and then from Cisco Emergency Responder. Update phone numbers, email address, and other contact information as they change. |
|
Add IP subnet for the IP subnets to be tracked |
If there is a new IP subnet that needs to be discovered by Emergency Responder, then perform the following tasks:
-
Configure an ERL spanning the new IP subnet's geographical location.
-
Configure this new IP subnet and the appropriate mask and assign this IP subnet to the created ERL.
