Using the Change Extensions
Command
Overview
Use the Change Extensions screen to move a series of extension numbers from
one block of numbers to another instead of changing each number individually.
You can use this screen to move as little as one extension from one number to
another. Or, you can use it for a much bigger job: perhaps to change the length
of every extension number in your system from four digits to five.
!
CAUTION:
If you have to change the length of the local extensions, you must first do
so at the platform level. Use the platforms Switch Interface Administration
command for this purpose.
Use the change machine command to change extension length on a
remote machine.
If you use this screen to move numbers on the local machine, it will also move all
of the covering extensions in the given range of numbers.
!
CAUTION:
While this screen will move all covering extensions, It will not change
references to the local system in networked systems,
If the system to be changed is networked to other AUDIX systems, you must
also change the subject entries in all of the connected systems. Since ports
on the system with local subscribers whose extensions are to be changed
will be disabled while you make the necessary changes, plan to make the
changes during a period of very low traffic.
