Hi again all.

At our main site we have an iDCS500R2 with MGI16, we already have a few ITP phones set up remotely working very well.

We are looking at opening another small store soon and initially I thought about placing ITP extensions at this site exclusively to save on additional lines (as we have an overkill PRI at our main office), but then worried about local traffic routing back thru head office.

I recently purchased a 7030 and have linked the two in a test, I can call from the 7030 to the DCS500 so far.

Ultimately I want to link the system together seamlessly so we have uniform extension numbers across the network (ie 200-224 at node a - 225-232 at node b)

It seems like there is a number of limitations setting up linked systems this way, realistically I want all the trunks and vmail to be handled by Node A.

So questions are

a) Can you program the remote extensions as simple 3 digit extensions from site to site?
b) Can VMAIL be handled at the main site for all nodes
c) can trunks at the main site ring at both sites
d) can DT/DS keys light up extensions in use at the remote site

If anyone wants to PM me a helping hand to get this set up would appreciate it.. I also bought an iDCS 100 with MGI card if it will be more useful then the 7030 but it seems the 7030 should be hefty enough for our needs at this other location.

HI adrian
Yes to all the questions you have asked might be better for you to get someone from australia to help you

Thanks Gerrya, If anyone from Aus wants to chime in...

a - yes
b - yes
c - yes, but not at the same time (you can
overflow from 1 to the other, and back again)
d - you use NS keys for remote extensions and
they will light up
