Field Purpose
MAC Address The hardware address of the port, assigned at the factory.
If you are configuring a ConneXtions H.323 Gateway, the
MAC address is the address of the network interface card of
the computer that hosts the gateway program.
ConneXtions generates the address automatically, so do
not enter a MAC address for H.323 Gateway.
For information about installing line cards and determining
each port’s MAC address, see the NBX Installation Guide.
The format for a MAC Address is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. Each
X represents a hexadecimal digit (0 through f).
Name A unique name for the port.
This name appears on the telephone display and in reports,
to help you identify the port.
Extension Type an Extension Number or leave this box empty to use
Auto Discovery to assign the extension for line card ports.
By default, Auto Discovery begins at extension 750 for a
3-digit dial plan, or 7250 for a 4-digit dial plan.
