| I guess I'm looking for a "recommended solution" for handling voice mail
ports. I have a scenario where the numbers being used for VM ports are
interfering with numbers needing to be assigned to phones. The ports
themselves are in a different partition (PT Hidden), but in a CSS of Line 1
(CSS Line 1, of which all the phones are also a member of).
Can someone recommend how they setup the VM ports in regards to the PT and
CSS, and then how they handle the VM Pilot, profile, & Hunt Pilot in regards
to the PT and CSS?
Also, has anyone ever setup the VM ports using special characters? IE *, #,
or anything like that in the number? Any plus or minus to doing that?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

| I usually have the VM ports themselves in a VMRSRCT-PT, the Voicemail Pilot in VMPILOT-PT and Message Waiting Indicator VMMWI-PT.
Let the CSS of the phones contain the Partition of the VMPILOT-PT.
The PILOT will have a CSS that has rights to call the HUNT-PILOT which then points to the HuntList which contains the VM Ports.
The VM Ports have a CSS that has rights to call the VMRSRCT-PT, VMPILOT-PT, VMMWI-PT and PHONES-PT.
Remember that you can make the VM ports themselves any number that you want in this case because the phones themselves will not be able to call directly.

| Gary,
Apologies if I misunderstand your problem. The setup that is outlined in the
Unity integration docs for callmanager should keep you from running into
that problem. The partition that your voicemail ports are in shouldn't
appear in any calling search spaces especially ones that are on phones or
gateways. that alone should let you re-use those numbers without running
into overlapping problems - nothing should be able to call those particular
lines except through the hunt pilot. The only number you have to reserve is
your pilot number afaik.
I've not tried to put any special characters in the voicemail ports.. not
sure how Unity would deal with those I dont think it likes those characters.
