Page 19: Spa9000 Ip Pbx
Getting Started Introduction to the SPA9000 Voice System Figure 1 SPA9000 Voice System with the SPA9000 and SPA400 SPA9000 IP PBX The SPA9000 is an IP PBX that supports up to 16 phones. It also has a built-in Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) with two FXS ports for analog telephones, fax devices, or an external music source for the music on-hold service.
Page 20: Spa400 Sip-Pstn Gateway And Voicemail Server
Getting Started Deployment Scenarios The SPA9000 includes an Auto Attendant service that plays pre-recorded voice messages to offer the caller a menu of choices and to direct the call. When the Auto-Attendant is enabled, it parses and operates on user key presses according to the rules that are specified in the Auto Attendant script.
Page 21: Pstn Access And Local Voice Mail
Getting Started Deployment Scenarios PSTN Access and Local Voice Mail In this scenario, the customer requires a robust phone system but is not using VoIP services. The SPA9000 Voice System is deployed with a SPA9000 IP PBX, one SPA400 for PSTN access with four FXO ports, and another SPA400 for local voice mail service.
Page 22: Itsp Service Only
Getting Started Deployment Scenarios ITSP Service Only In this scenario, a customer has no legacy telephone numbers and either needs no voice mail at all or has voice mail hosted by the ITSP. The SPA9000 Voice System is deployed with the SPA9000 IP PB and VoIP service. Up to 16 IP phones can be installed.
Page 23: Itsp Service, Pstn Access And Local Voice Mail
Getting Started Deployment Scenarios ITSP Service, PSTN Access and Local Voice Mail In this scenario, the customer wants to use ITSP service for reduced long distance fees but needs to support legacy local telephone numbers (for example, to receive calls to a legacy telephone number or to place outbound calls in the local area). This customer also prefers local voice mail service.
Page 24: Itsp Service, Pstn And Isdn Access And Local Voice Mail
Getting Started Deployment Scenarios ITSP Service, PSTN and ISDN Access and Local Voice Mail In this scenario, the customer takes full advantage of the SPA9000 Voice System solution. This customer has the SPA9000 IP PBX, VoIP service, one SPA400 unit for voice mail service, and another SPA400 for PSTN access with four FXO ports.

Although the SPA9000 can provide router and application services, it does not have sufficient power to provide both phone and routing/application services in a highly utilized environment. For this reason, Linksys recommends that the SPA9000 not be used as a router at any time. Instead, use the SPA9000 as an appliance by connecting its INTERNET port to a network switch and leaving the ETHERNET port disconnected.

You can leave all stations in the default group, or you can assign selected stations to groups for the purpose of routing their outbound calls to preferred lines.
Page 178 Advanced Topics in SPA9000 Administration Advanced Call Control and Routing Call Routing Group Line Preference After you create a group, you must enter a list of lines, in the preferred order. When a group member places a call, the SPA9000 chooses the first line in the list. If it is unavailable, the SPA9000 chooses the next line, and so on, until an available line is found.
