Footnotes

[1] (1,2)

Default vendor value is blank (for Cisco).

[2] (1,2)

If a number is used by both a Phone and Hunt Pilot then the Usage column will display both usage values, i.e. Device,Hunt_Pilot. This could be the case if you change the Partition and enter the DN manually so that they share the same DN.

However, the Status column will display only one status: the status triggered by the most recent transaction. The Status would change from Used to Used-Utility if you added the Hunt Pilot last. If it was already a Hunt Pilot and then you added it to a Phone, then Status would change from Used-Utility to Used.

Numbers can also be shared between Call Handlers and one or more device types. Status depends on whether Call Handler or devices were added first to the number. Usage will typically be Call_Handler_Pilot,Device.

[3]

Status is Inactive by adding a number in Number Range Management, where Vendor is Webex Calling and Push as Active is unchecked on the Webex Control Hub frame on the input form.

Modifying the number in a range by setting the status as Available will activate it in the Webex Control Hub and update its status.

For AudioCodes, see the AudioCodes topic in the Core Feature Guide.

If a number is currently in Cooling, the release date indicates when the number will come out of cooling.

[6]

If a number is currently Reserved, you can enter an optional Tag to identify the user for which the number is reserved. An optional Reservation notes field is also available to allow you to enter additional information regarding the reserved number.
