Table  23-1: Trunk Group Table Parameter Descriptions 
Parameter  Description 
Module 
module 
[TrunkGroup_Module] 
Defines the telephony interface module for which you want to 
define the Trunk Group. 
From Trunk 
first-trunk-id 
[TrunkGroup_FirstTrunkId] 
Defines the starting physical Trunk number in the Trunk Group. 
The number of listed Trunks depends on the device's hardware 
configuration. 
Note: The parameter is applicable only to digital interfaces. 
To Trunk 
last-trunk-id  
[TrunkGroup_LastTrunkId] 
Defines the ending physical Trunk number in the Trunk Group. 
The number of listed Trunks depends on the device's hardware 
configuration. 
Note: The parameter is applicable only to digital interfaces. 
Channels 
first-b-channel 
[TrunkGroup_FirstBChannel] 
last-b-channel 
[TrunkGroup_LastBChannel] 
Defines the device's channels/ports (analog module) or Trunk B-
channels (digital module). To enable channels, enter the channel 
numbers.  
You can enter a range of channels by using the syntax n-m, 
where n represents the lower channel number and m the higher 
channel number. For example, "1-4" specifies channels 1 through 
4. To represent all the Trunk's B-channels, enter a single asterisk 
(*). 
Note: The number of defined channels must not exceed the 
maximum number of the Trunk’s B-channels. 
Phone Number 
first-phone-number 
[TrunkGroup_FirstPhoneNumber]
Defines the telephone number(s) of the channels.  
The valid value can be up to 50 characters. 
For a range of channels, enter only the first telephone number. 
Subsequent channels are assigned the next consecutive 
telephone number. For example, if you enter 400 for channels 1 to 
4, then channel 1 is assigned phone number 400, channel 2 is 
assigned phone number 401, and so on.  
These numbers are also used for channel allocation for IP-to-Tel 
calls if the Trunk Group’s ‘Channel Select Mode’ parameter is set 
to By Dest Phone Number. 
Note: 
  If this field includes alphabetical characters and the phone 
number is defined for a range of channels (e.g., 1-4), then the 
phone number must end with a number (e.g., 'user1'). 
  This field is optional. The logical numbers defined in this field 
are used when an incoming Tel call doesn't contain the calling 
number or called number (the latter being determined by the 
ReplaceEmptyDstWithPortNumber parameter). These 
numbers are used to replace them. 
  This field is ignored if routing of IP-to-Tel calls is done 
according to the Supplementary Services table, where multiple 
line extension numbers are configured per port (see 
'Configuring Multi-Line Extensions and Supplementary 
Services' on page 618
). For this routing method, the 'Channel 
Select Mode' must be set to 
Select Trunk By Supplementary 
Services Table in the Trunk Group Settings table (see 
'Configuring Trunk Group Settings' on page 
519).
