URGENT!! MORE IP Phones on BCM450

[Scottg30]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to increase the amount of IP handsets in inactive dns?

I have loaded a licence and it has given me 5 more ip handsets, but the system only sees 2 of them in inactive dns. all the other inactives are application dns?

Do i need to change a setting to increase this?

Thanks

Go to resources IP sets and configure more DN's.

If you are going over 100 phones extensions - analog, digital, and IP you will need the processor expansion card that plugs into the slot closest to the media bays.

From the Manual:

By default, the following trunk & DN’s are pre-configured on a BCM system
with a Start DN of 221:
 IP Trunks = 001 – 008
 MBM1 – DSM32/32+ = 221 – 252
 IP Sets = 253 – 268
 Application DN’s = 300 – 399
If the defaults were accepted then a BCM with a Start DN of 221 would have the following DN numbering (example below is from a BCM with 3 DSM32+’s in located in MBM1 – MBM3):

 MBM1 – DSM32+ (1st) = 221 – 252
 IP Sets = 253 – 268
 Applications = 300 – 399
 MBM2 – DSM32+ (2nd) = 269 – 299 & 400
 MBM3 – DSM32+ (3rd) = 401 – 432
Therefore, the DN numbers associated with the DSM MBM’s are split by both IP Set DN’s and Application DN’s.
It may be more preferable to have continuous ranges of DSM DN’s, IP Set DN’s and Application DN’s.
Ordering of DN’s into desired ranges can be achieved by use of the
Deconfigure and Configure options within Telephony Resources. Each
resource can be essentially erased by use of the Deconfigure option, and have a more appropriate trunk or DN number range assigned by using the Configure option.

From the Configuration tab, open the Resources folder and click on
Telephony Resources.

Select the resource that you want to renumber, and click on
Deconfigure. IP Sets is being used as an example here, but this
procedure can apply to any of the resources

Note the warning messages and click on OK.

It should show you the next number you can continue from.
You should now be able to add more DNs to the range.
Allow extra extns so as you dont have to do this again
