MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide

 4-107

combination is busy, the other gets the call. If both are busy, the longest idle among all ports in 
Slots 6 and 5 gets the call and so on.

Numbering Plan profiles enable you to optimize the placement of outgoing calls. You can fine 
tune the point at which the MAX assumes it has received all the dialed digits, and you can 
provide callers with a more familiar dialing procedure. If you do not configure a Numbering 
Plan profile, callers must either press the # key or wait the specified number of seconds set in 
the POTS Digit Timeout parameter (System > Sys Config > POTS Digit Timeout) before the 
unit places the call.

The Numbering Plan profiles are global to the system. The Numbering Plan profile menu, in 
the System profile, supports up to 32 Numbering Plan profiles. The first Numbering Plan 
profile is the default. The unit uses the default profile when no active profile matches the 
dialed number. Each Numbering Plan profile includes the following parameters:

The MAX routes an outgoing call initiated by the POTS device to a WAN T1/E1/PRI/BRI line. 
For example, an analog phone could dial into a port on the MAXPOTS card and that call gets 
routed out the T1 line: 

You can route outbound (and inbound) calls by configuring the Call Routes profile. Examples 
of Call Routes profiles follow. In addition, examples of MAXPOTS rollover functionality is 
shown and a Numbering Plan profile. 

MAXPOTS supports both DTMF and pulse dialing (7.5 pps to 12 pps)

Following are four sample configurations. With the first configuration, the MAX automatically 

prepends a trunk digit to each outbound call. With the second, it strips a trunk digit from each 

outbound call. With the third and fourth configurations, the unit routes on the basis of area 

code and call-setup parameters, respectively.
