If you manage multiple locations, you do not need to manually assign each line to the correct location, but can automatically assign line groups to the correct location in UCServer Administration.
Knowledge required
This guide to assigning locations and lines requires expertise in configuring PBXs and numbering plans.
Management of multiple locations and assignment of lines
Requirements
- The locations in the UCServer are logically separated and correctly configured.
- In the properties of the line groups, "Location of group" must be selected in the Location settings <Automatic>.
Result
With this configuration, the UCServer can evaluate which extension belongs to which location and automatically assign this line to this location.
Procedure using an example with two locations
In the following example two locations are set up:
| Location | Extensions |
|---|
| Location 1 | 100-199 |
| Location 2 | 200-299 |
These locations are created in the UCServer administration and configured according to the call number plan of the environment.
Set up Location 1
Using the above example, Location 1 is set up first:
Example screenshot Location 1 – PBX system – Extension number space
Set up Location 2
Using the above example, Location 2 is set up first:
Example screenshot Location 2 – PBX system – Extension number space
Switch location binding to Automatic
Now go to Details for line group and under Location settings set Location of group to Automatic.
Example screenshot Details for line group
Result
The lines are thereby automatically assigned to the locations.
