Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

This page, shown below, allows you to add phones manually to the configuration. This should not be necessary if the phones are configured correctly (see InnDesk Push Server Configuration).

 

Note: Any non-IP phones added to this list can only use the Alert Email and Alert Voice options as the other push options only work with IP phones.

Note: When phones are properly configured, they will automatically add themselves to the list when they boot. It is not recommended to insert phones manually.

 

The extension number and IP address of each phone must be unique.  You do not need to shut down the voice mail service to configure this list.
