Field

Considerations

Enabled

Check this check box.

Number of Ports

Enter 8.

(If you want to use fewer than eight voice messaging ports, enter the number of voice messaging ports that you want to use on this PIMG unit.)

Note

 

For a Unity Connection cluster, the server must have the number of voice messaging ports that are set up on the phone system for the PIMG integration so that this server can handle all voice messaging traffic for the cluster if one of the servers stops functioning. For example, if the phone system is set up with 16 voice messaging ports, this server must have 16 voice messaging ports.

Phone System

Select the name of the phone system that you entered in Step 3.

Port Group

Select the name of the port group that you added in Step 8.

Step 12

On the Search Ports page, select the display name of the first voice messaging port that you created for this phone system integration.

Note

 

By default, the display names for the voice messaging ports are composed of the port group display name followed by incrementing numbers.

Step 13

On the Port Basics page, set the voice messaging port settings as applicable. The fields in the following table are the ones that you can change.

Table 30. Settings for the Voice Messaging Ports

Field

Considerations

Enabled

Check this check box to enable the port. The port is enabled during normal operation.

Uncheck this check box to disable the port. When the port is disabled, calls to the port get a ringing tone but are not answered. Typically, the port is disabled only by the installer during testing.

Extension

Enter the extension for the port as assigned on the phone system.

Answer Calls

Check this check box to designate the port for answering calls. These calls can be incoming calls from unidentified callers or from users.

Perform Message Notification

Check this check box to designate the port for notifying users of messages. Assign Perform Message Notification to the least busy ports.

Send MWI Requests

(Serial integrations only) Uncheck this check box. Otherwise, the integration may not function correctly.

(Digital and analog integrations only) Check this check box to designate the port for turning MWIs on and off. Assign Send MWI Requests to the least busy ports

Allow TRAP Connections

Check this check box so that users can use the port for recording and playback through the phone in Unity Connection web applications. Assign Allow TRAP Connections to the least busy ports.

Outgoing Hunt Order

Enter the priority order in which Unity Connection uses the ports when dialing out (for example, if the Perform Message Notification, Send MWI Requests, or Allow TRAP Connections check box is checked). The highest numbers are used first. However, when multiple ports have the same Outgoing Hunt Order number, Unity Connection uses the port that has been idle the longest.

Step 14

Select Save.

Step 15

Select Next.

Step 16

Repeat Step 13 through Step 15 for all remaining voice messaging ports for the phone system.

Step 17

In Cisco Unity Connection Administration, expand Telephony Integrations, then select Phone System.

Step 18

On the Search Phone Systems page, under Display Name, select the name of the phone system that you entered in Step 3.

Step 19

Repeat Step 7 through Step 18 for each remaining PIMG unit integrated with Unity Connection.

Note

 

Each PIMG unit is connected to one port group with the applicable voice messaging ports. For example, a system that uses five PIMG units requires five port groups, one port group for each PIMG unit.

Step 20

To create a port group for MWIs, do the following substeps.

Note

 
All MWI requests are handled by the master PIMG unit and sent to the phone system over the RS-232 serial cable (without using voice messaging ports). So the following substeps create a separate port group without voice messaging ports and enable the port group for MWIs that are "not port specific" (they do not use ports).
  1. In Cisco Unity Connection Administration expand Telephony Integration then select Port Group .

  2. On the Search Port Groups page, select Add New.

  3. On the New Port Group page, enter the applicable settings and select Save.
