7. The remote system will request updated subscriber information from the local system (if the local
system previously notified the remote system that it had updates to send). The local system will
then send its updated subscriber information to the remote system.
8. The remote system will send voice mail to the local system.
9. The remote system will send updated message status information to the local system.
Set this field to n if you do not want to implement network turnaround. In this case, only steps 1
through 4 will occur.
NOTE
If systems in the network are not all R1V7 and the network turnaround feature is enabled,
calls may be dropped after steps 1 through 4 have been completed.
send to non-administered recipients (y/n)?
The default value is y. If this field is y, when a subscriber addresses a message to a remote extension
that does not map to a remote subscriber known by the local AUDIX system, the local AUDIX system
will add this potential subscriber to its data base and then send the message to every remote system in
the network for which the subscriber address is valid.
The AUDIX system does this in case a new subscriber has been added somewhere in the network and
this remote system has not been made aware of it either through administrator communication or
through remote updates. If the subscriber is found on a remote AUDIX machine, the local AUDIX
system will deliver this message to the valid remote machine(s) and validate this new subscriber. If a
valid remote subscriber cannot be found, the subscriber record will be deleted eventually by one of the
system audits and the AUDIX system will change the status of the message from ‘‘undelivered’’ to
‘‘undeliverable’’ in the message sender’s voice mailbox.
NOTE
Any address should not map to more than one valid subscriber in the network. However,
the AUDIX software does not enforce this, so it is possible for a message to be sent to
more than one subscriber if an address is duplicated.
If this field is n, when a subscriber addresses a message to a remote extension or name that does not
map to a remote subscriber known by the local AUDIX system, the local AUDIX system will not send
the message. The subscriber who is attempting to address the message will be notified that the
extension is invalid.
If the network administrators keep open lines of communication (or there is just one administrator for
the entire network), chances are good that each system will be kept up-to-date. Therefore, the customer
would want an n entered here so the local AUDIX system is not burdened with finding a subscriber that
probably does not exist in the first place. (What usually has happened is that a user has misdialed.)
