Chapter 2 SRG50 overview 21SRG50 Configuration GuideCoordination with the main office call serverConfiguration of the SRG branch office requires datafill at both the SRG and the main office callserver. Main office configuration drives SRG configuration, and Nortel recommends that the mainoffice activities be concluded before undertaking SRG configuration.For information, see CS 1000 considerations on page 33.SRG operating modesThe SRG has two operating modes:• Normal mode• Local modeNormal modeIn normal mode (see the figure Normal mode on page 22), the SRG is connected to the main officecall server over a WAN using VoIP trunks. From the perspective of the main office, the SRG is abranch office.Target Lines Target lines are internal, virtual paths between trunks and telephones for incoming calls(only). They provide flexibility in the way trunks and telephones can be associated: targetlines can be used to direct an incoming call to one or more telephones, direct one ormore trunks to one phone, or direct several trunks (in a line pool) to one or more phones.Target lines are assigned to DNs. A target line triggers ringing voltage to the telephone(s)connected to the port(s) associated with the DN(s) that the target line is assigned to. (Forexample, if a unique target line is assigned to each DN, only one telephone rings whenthe DN is called. If several DNs are assigned to one target line, calling any of the DNsring all of the associated phones.)Target lines are required for auto-answer trunks. Because VoIP lines are set internally toauto-answer, target lines are required for SRG operation.Element Manager provides two methods for assigning target lines to DNs.1) Configuration > Telephony > Sets > All DNs > All DNs table > Details for DN subpanel> Line Assignment tabor2) Configuration > Telephony > Lines > Target Lines > Target Lines table > Details forLine subpanel > Assigned DNs tabThe first method provides a convenient way to assign the target line to the DN when theDN record is configured. The second method provides fields that allow incoming digitstrings to be mapped to the DN.(Lines 125 to 268)For more information about target lines, see the Networking Configuration Guide(NN40020-603).Line pool Several of the same type of trunk configured as one group: a trunk group.Table 6 SRG50 terminology (Sheet 2 of 2)Term Description
