The programming for Multiline Hunt is CO switch dependent. The
Lucent Technologies 5ESS and Siemens SSC EWSD switches
provide hunting through the Series Completion feature. The
Northern Telecom DMS-100 switch provides hunting through the
Multiline Hunt Group (MLHG) feature. Contact the local service
provider to determine what type of switching equipment is in use
and check the appropriate box under the MLH subheading of the
Service Configurations section on page 2 of the form.
The MERLIN LEGEND has currently been tested with each switch
type in the following configurations:
— Lucent Technologies 5ESS in a linear hunt group
— Northern Telecom DMS-100 in a circular hunt group
— Siemens SSC EWSD in a circular hunt group
Other configurations are possible, but are not guaranteed to work.
Appendix H, “NI-1 BRI Provisioning” provides sample LEC
programming screens of the Series Completion and MLHG features.
These screens show the fields and parameters for the CO switch
and may be forwarded to the local service provider if necessary.
11. Once you have determined your Service Configuration, do
one
of the
following:
■ If your Service Configuration will be IOC “S”, check the box beside
the IOC “S” selection under the Service Configuration heading, then
enter the number of BRI lines that will be provisioned using this
package.
■ If your Service Configuration will be MLH, check the box beside the
MLH selection under the Service Configurations heading.
— Check the box for MLHG (Northern Telecom DMS-100) or
Series Completion (Lucent Technologies 5ESS or Siemens
SSC EWSD).
— Enter the total number of BRI lines provisioned using MLH,
the number of BRI lines provisioned as voice only hunt
groups, the number of BRI lines provisioned as data only
hunt groups, and the number of BRI lines provisioned as
voice/data hunt groups in the spaces provided.
NOTE:
MERLIN LEGEND Release 4.0 does not support voice/data
hunt groups with the Siemens SSC EWSD CO switch.
12. Specify the total number of BRI lines under the Number of BRI Lines
Ordered heading.
13. If CPN/BN is available with the BRI lines ordered, check the CPN/BN box
under the Additional Features heading.
