# Configuring Hot Desk Devices and Auto DN Selection
(Mitel Integrated Configuration Wizard)

Use this page to provision telephones for Hot Desking and to define a range of directory numbers (DNs) for auto-provisioning multiline IP telephones.

Auto-provisioning is a fast way to put phones into service. It saves the installer from having to enter a DN at each phone to register it on the MiVoice Business system. Only the Set Registration code is entered which triggers the system to select a DN from the range specified here to complete the registration.

To define a range of DNs for Automatic DN Selection Range

1. Enter a Prefix from 1 to for characters (0-9, *, #). The prefix goes in front of each DN in the range. Example: a range 100 to 900 prefixed by 7* yields DNs from 7*100 to 7*900. The prefix and DN combined cannot exceed seven characters (the system maximum for DN length).

2. Enter the first and last DNs in the range. Only digits (0-9) are allowed. Both entries must be the same length.

3. (Optional) Select a secondary controller to make devices that use Automatic DN Selection during registration resilient.

NOTE: This option is only available when provisioning an existing element in a resilient cluster.

To configure the Hot Desk devices:

1. In the Add box, enter the number of devices that you want to generate.

2. Click Add.

3. In the Name/Label box, enter the name of the device for the Telephone Directory form.

4. Type an extension number and select a Device Type for each device or use Autofill to generate them as follows:

5. Select multiple devices by dragging across a range of rows.

6. Click Autofill.

7. Select Starting Number to autofill
   OR
   Clear the check box to enter numbers manually.

8. Select Device Type to autofill
   OR
   clear the check box to enter device types manually.

9. Click OK.

5. (Optional) Select a Secondary MiVoice Business for each user that requires service resiliency
   Resilient networks are made up of network elements that provide reliable fail-over mechanisms-either within the device or through working in conjunction with other network elements in order to ensure that all network devices can be used simultaneously. In this way the failure of one device will not bring down the entire network, thereby eliminating single points of failure on the network. A truly resilient network will provide the maximum amount of network uptime without requiring an entire duplicate network..
   This option is only available when provisioning a cluster
   Refers to a grouping of systems (for example, a cluster MiVoice Business systems) that share common dialing plans, or common directory information, such as Remote Directory Numbers with Telephone Directory..

6. Click Next to continue.

Hot Desk devices are assigned Class of Service 10. Hot Desk Login Accept is enabled in all cases. See Defaults applied to MiVoice Business for detailed COS definitions.
