Swap TNs between two phones? 8

[cbsarge]

I have 2 users that are switching offices but want to keep the same extensions. How can I swap the TNs since I can't get at the wiring closet to just switch the wire pairs? Both phones are 2616s.

Thanks in advance.

We are making the assumption that none of these are ACD sets. I didn't notice anyone making a note of that as most of us usually do.

Just to be safe, make sure you don't do this to ACD sets. It could make for a bad day. Those should be out'd and rebuilt fresh....the good old fashined way.

yet i cannot connect more than one user

 

[johnpoole]

if you have dual com ports built, multi users should be able to log in with unique or teh same passwords. some ld's block a second user from going to a load.. if i am in 95 doing a name you can't get in ld 11, but you could do a stat x x x x, in ld 32

You shouldn't ask a totally new unrelated question in an existing question. you shound start a new thread.

 

[johnpoole]

ace is right, your question may get overlooked when it's part of a post that has already been addressed. most of us watch for new questions and address those, time constraints don't always allow us to revisit older post

Back to the original discussion. ArchTelecom, when you say ACD sets, do you mean ACD hunt groups? Sorry, my forte isn't PBX's, but we're about to move to another office and using the mov command will definitely help. We do have several hunt groups configured, and about half of the phones are in at least one hunt group. Can you be kind enough to explain an ACD set and what makes those different from a regular extension? Much appreciated.

 

[acewarlock]

What is a ACD hunt Group, I never heard of it.

Just prt the TNB and if key O has ACD ???? after it than it's an ACD Phone.

All suggestions regarding the MOV command are great however, be careful or better yet, do not use the MOV command on analog phones (There was a Nortel Bulletin that came out regarding using the MOV command - they're suggesting not to use the MOV command for it causes major corruption on your sofware). Good luck

 

[johnpoole]

kring... do you have that bulletin number or a link,, i use the mov command, along with two other techs on this site plus a few 100 other bs techs every day.. hundreds of times a week, if not more... i have never even read about a DOCUMENTED case of corruption caused by the mov command since rls 16.. and back then i didn't have white hair and great grand kids... i have worked on switches with zero maint, that did an ini on a mov command.. not because of the command, because sets were not disabled at midnights, and 500 sch codes a day were never fixed.. the cpu can't process another command.. the ram fills up... the same ini would have happened with a new 23 command in ld 14...
