CHAPTER 14
Authority Group
This chapter shows you how to create and manage SIP and FXS extensions on the X6004.
14.1 Extension Management Overview
The X6004 allows you to manage individual SIP and FXS extensions. Before extensions can
be created, you need to create at least one authority group on the X6004. See the How It
Works chapter on page 37 for an overall explanation of authority groups and extensions. This
chapter focuses on how to create authority groups on the X6004. It also shows you how to
configure settings for SIP and FXS extensions on the X6004.
Basically, you can think of an authority group as a set of extensions (SIP, FXS or both). You
use an authority group to assign equal rights to the entire set of extensions. For example, if you
create two authority groups, you can allow one group to make local calls and long distance
calls and the second authority group to make local calls only.
Authority groups and extensions follow these guidelines:
You have to create at least one authority group on the X6004.
Each extension can only be a member of one authority group.
SIP and FXS extensions are treated the same within an authority group.
The following sections describe how to configure authority groups on the X6004. See Section
14.3 on page 131 for more information on features related to individual extensions.
