BCM Extension Range Reprogramming

[St3veMax]

Hi All,

We've programmed our BCM400 on the 2xxx Extension range and now we're planning to connect it to a CS1K via SIP. Another complication is that we had some short-dial rules to another office on the Option 11c before we moved office and put in a CS1K; also on the 2xxx dialing code.

We need to reinstate the CS1K Short-Dial codes; but appreciate you cant have two lots of 2xxx.

Our incumbent telephony provider tells me we need to completly flatten it and rebuild from scratch...

Can anyone confirm?

Cheers

Depends on the version of BCM you are using. If its 4.0 unfortunately you have to do a cold start and build from the bottom to renumber all at the same time or you could go ahead and just change every DN one by one. If your at 3.7 or lower, there is a wizard that will allow you to renumber your DNs.

Thanks for this;

We're running v4.0.2.03;

How would I go about doing it one by one? Would I need to create a new range in the BCM; Delete say 2001 and recreate as say 8001 ?

Cheers

Exactly, one by one.

You can double click the DN to change it, or, and I find this fastest, use set based admin.
