Unnamed Registration
Issue 6 February 2007 45
Unnamed Registration
As of Release 2.4, 4600 Series IP Telephones support unnamed registration. A telephone can
register with the call server and receive limited service without requiring an extension and
password entry. Unless otherwise disabled, the telephone automatically attempts to register
unnamed if no action is taken on the Extension entry screen.
A telephone registered without the extension and password has the following characteristics:
● only one call appearance, preventing conferences or call transfers,
● no administrable feature buttons,
● on-hook dialing cannot be invoked,
● limited to the calling capability administered for PSA (Personal Station Access) on the call
server, for example, only outgoing calls permitted subject to call server Class of
Restriction/Class of Service limitations, and
● can be converted to normal, named registration by a valid extension and password entry.
The telephone can be administered to avoid unnamed registration and remain unregistered if no
extension and password are provided. For more information, see the 4600 Series IP Telephone
LAN Administrator Guide.
