If you want the system to have a consecutive numbering plan, make sure
that the line cards are in consecutive card slots in the cabinet or 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 Auto-configure feature
The Meridian Mail Auto-configure feature automatically matches Meridian
Mail mailboxes with telephone extensions. If you have the Meridian Mail
card option and you want to use the Meridian Mail Auto-configure feature,
make sure:
• The numbering plan is consecutive.
• The first number in the Small System and the Meridian Mail system
are the same.
Shifting the numbering plan to a new card slot
The first number in the numbering plan is assigned to slot 1, unit 0. You may
wish to shift the first number in the numbering plan to a different card slot,
since the TDS/DTR card is preprogrammed for slot 1.
The following procedure describes how to shift the first number in the
numbering plan to a specific card slot.
