2.11 Analog Port: Local DN and Options
This section shows you how to assign the phone number(s) to voice calls and set port priority.
2.11.1 MSN (Multiple Subscriber Number) and Subaddress
Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN) is where the telephone company gives you more than one
number for your ISDN line. You can assign each number to a different port, e.g., the first
number to data calls, the second to A/B adapter 1 and so on. Or (DSS1) the telephone
company may give you only one number, but allow you to assign your own subaddresses to
different ports, e.g., subaddress 1 to data calls and 2 to A/B adapter 1.
2.11.1.1 Phone Number Assignment Example
Different telephone companies deploy different types of switches for ISDN service.
Depending on the switch for your particular installation, you will have a different number of
telephone numbers.
When your telephone company provides you with more than one phone number (say 5009001
and 5009002), you can connect two analog phones and/or G3 fax devices to the PHONE 1 and
PHONE 2 ports and assign each number to a port. If you attach one analog phone and one fax
machine to the analog ports but don’t assign any phone number to either port, both telephone
and fax ring when there is an incoming call. That will be difficult to tell whether it is a fax call
or voice call.
Follow the steps for the configuration method of your choice to assign the phone numbers.
After configuration, the TA will route a call to the port that matches the dialed number.
