3-2 Notification parameters

Notification of a messages waiting consists in calling the subscribers periodically to signal thepresence of messages in their mailboxes, during a programmable time period. Such notificationmay be configured for all messages or for urgent messages only.

Normally, sets connected to the Alcatel 4400 PBX are equipped with LEDs for internal notification.However, a subscriber who is out of the office can request notification on an internal set of hischoice or on an external number.

The temporary validation of this notification can be carried out using the personal options of themailbox.

Depending on his class of service, the subscriber may also modify the time periods and/ortelephone numbers which are to receive notification.

The sites receiving the external calls can also be restricted, internal, local external, long-distance,international.

4 Managing voice mailboxes and user profiles

Chapter

4-1 Overview

To subscribe a user to the Alcatel 4635 messaging system, you must assign the user a voicemailbox. This is defined by:

- the type of mailbox assigned, designated by a number

- the class of service assigned, designated by a number.

There are different types of voice mailbox, offering specific functions. An voice mailboxcan be individual (attached to a set) or collective. Certain types are standard, while others dependon the software options installed (see 4-2).

The definition of a mailbox is completed by a series of parameters, called the class of service,restricting or increasing the possibilities available by the type of mailbox. A class of service maybe common to several mailboxes.

Management can be simplified using ready to use subscriber profiles which are an associationof a type of voice mailbox and a specific class of service according to the requiredprofile (see 4-3).Alcatel 4635H/J (R.2) (Voice mail system) - Alcatel 4400 4-1

4-3 Standard management (user profiles)

4-3-1 Profile overview

The system proposes pre-defined user profiles in order to simplify management:

- traditional profile : destined for most subscribers

- simplified profile : destined for a basic functions only subscriber (answerphone-recorder)

- advanced profile : destined for an experienced user who makes extensive use of themessaging system.

The 10 classes of service (CS) presented in the table below correspond to a user profile thatis combined or not with the Network and Fax options.

(The 10 classes of service 30, 31, 32, 40 and 42 are only used by the Alcatel4635H version).

Namely:

Depending on the case, the type of voice mailbox associated with the class of service is 0 or 53(see 4-2).

4-3-2 Profile management

Once the user profile has been defined (Traditional, Simplified or Advanced), locate in the previoustable ( 4-3-1) according to the required configuration (without option, with network, fax ornetwork + fax option):

- the type of voice mailbox used (0 or 53)

- the class of service number (CS 10, 20, 30, 40, 11, 31, 12, 22, 32 or 42)

and note down these two numbers which will be needed in the management menus.

Network and fax (4x) CS 40 + mailbox 0 - CS 42 + mailbox 04-4 Alcatel 4635H/J (R.2) (Voice mail system) - Alcatel 4400

Example: For a traditional user profile and standard software installation (without option), the type of voicemailbox is 0 and the number of the class of service is 10.


To create a voice mailbox from your profile, just ADD a voice mailbox 0 or 53,indicating the associated class of service and the parameters concerning thesubscribers.

PROCEDURE:

From the MAIN MENU, enter 8:

After entering the mailbox number (for a subscriber, this is usually the set number), type 0 isdisplayed by default. If appropriate, enter another mailbox type and validate.

Note: The menu displayed can vary according to the type of mailbox.

- Operator extension:Enter a number between 1 and 30 corresponding to one of the time periods defined inConfiguration of generalities menu 1.2. If there is no time period defined, this canbe the attendant set number or a secretary set number.

- Class of service:Assign a class of service number, retained for this mailbox.

- Initial password:The password displayed is a random number, automatically assigned on mailbox creation.For greater simplicity, it is normal for the messaging system manager to replace this codeby the set number. On initial access, the subscriber must replace the initial password by acode of his choice.

- Operator schedule:Enter the attendant time period defined in Generalities for this set.

Note: Since the classes of service used for the profiles are already created, no modification is required.However, it is possible to modify the parameter values to meet specific requirements. In this case, followthe verification/modification of a class of service procedure (see 4-4-1-2) indicating the number of theclass to modify. The parameter default values are indicated in 4-4-1-3.

4-4 Customised management

4-4-1 Management of classes of services

4-4-1-1 Generalities

There can be up to 64 classes of service (CS), designated by a number from 1 to 64.

The CSs can be created by modifying the default value of the existing parameters. Someparameters can only be coded if the function that they control corresponds to an installed softwareoption.

The standard classes of service 1 to 6 contain a name designating the type of user:

- CS 1 Director (offering the maximum number of possibilities)

- CS 2 Head of department (with restricted possibilities as regards CS 1)

- CS 3 Office manager (with restricted possibilities as regards CS 2)

- CS 4 Sales staff (with a number of messages and storage duration greater than CS 3)4-6 Alcatel 4635H/J (R.2) (Voice mail system) - Alcatel 4400

- CS 5 Secretary (with restricted possibilities as regards CS 4)

- CS 6 Employee (with restricted possibilities as regards CS 5)

- CS 64 Reserved for the two mailboxes for the messaging system manager.


These job titles are given as an example only. You should consider the level of telephone activityof a subscriber when determining this.

Some CS parameters can be modified. The default values of classes of service 1 to 64 are detailedin 4-4-1-3.

Specific classes of service are also created for standard management, see 4-3.

Note: All subscribers can have class of service 1 (maximum backup duration). However, if you grant allsubscribers maximum played message backup duration, you will reduce the total available storage capacity,this capacity being common to all users. Therefore, you should assign the class of service that is the mostappropriate for each user.

5 Distribution listsChapter

5-1 Generalities

When messages are frequently sent to a subscriber group, rather than designating the mailboxesof these subscribers one by one, you can indicate, as destination address, a distribution listcontaining the addresses of these subscribers.

A subscriber can be authorised by his class of service to create personal distribution lists. Thisclass of service fixes the number of lists that are authorised and the maximum number of mailboxesin the list.

The subscriber is sole user of his lists and manages them via the administrative options.

The Alcatel 4635 messaging system administrator can also create general distribution lists whichcan be used by subscribers. In order to be able to use the general distribution lists, a subscribermust have the ACCESS TO SYSTEM DISTRIBUTION LISTS option in his class of service validatedY.

A general distribution list is a type 6 mailbox to which the list of recipients has been associated.In common with all mailboxes, it has an address and a name. The sender drops a message inhis own mailbox and designates the type 6 mailbox as destination.

On creating the type 6 mailbox, the administrator designates a manager for this mailbox andgrants an initial password for the mailbox. The manager must initialise the mailbox (passwordand name) and can draw up, delete or modify the list using the menu options of this mailbox.

The manager of this mailbox type can also add another password called the access passwordto restrict use of this list to certain subscribers.

The recording of the list names can be carried out either in the manager's mailbox or theadministrator's mailbox.

A distribution list can include the addresses of local mailboxes, addresses in an OctelNet networkor addresses in an AMIS network.

In a distribution list, addresses of other lists can also appear. This means there is a main listcontaining sub-lists.

There is only one list assembly level. You cannot place a list in a sub-list or place a main list in a list.Alcatel 4635H/J (R.2) (Voice mail system) - Alcatel 4400 5-1

Chapter 5 Distribution lists

Example of general distribution lists with main lists:

In this example:

- ADMINISTRATIVE, SALESMEN, ENGINEERS, AGENTS, are sub-lists containing mailboxes.

- TECHNICAL is a main list. It comprises two sub-lists and 3 mailboxes.

- SERVICE is a main list comprising four sub-lists.

After creation, a list can be consulted, printed and modified using menu11.
