to light message waiting lamps and deliver messages, but more dial-out
ports may be required.
Consider the following factors when configuring the port status:
A dial-out port used to call subscribers for message delivery likely is
tied up by the subscribers that the voice mail system contacts while
the subscribers sign in and check their messages. Any dial-out to
activate message waiting lamps must wait for the dial-out port to
become free. This may result in a message waiting lamp or pager not
being activated until long after a message is received.

enough free ports to accept incoming calls, causing callers to get a
busy signal when they try to leave or retrieve messages.

other ports to A/M, Msg or Ans guarantees that the voice mail
system uses only one port for all message waiting lamp calls.
