General

The calling/connected name identity function is used to assign a name to the following objects:

• CAS extensions (primary and secondary)
• Voice extensions (for primary and secondary numbers separately)
• Groups (PBX, ACD)
• DNIS numbers
• Individual PBX operators
• Hospitality class extensions

The name identity function is also used to assign a name to the following objects:

• Personal numbers (per list)
• Routes

The initiation command, name -i, has an optional parameter called --presentation-priority (presentation in display mode). Depending on the value of this parameter, one field of the name is truncated when the display length is shorter than the name length.

The parameter --presentation-restricted is also used to state the name presentation restriction for extensions with the Hospitality Class, Room Vacant or Room Occupied.

name -i has an optional parameter --info which is used to store the additional information about the guest with hospitality class of service. The maximum length allowed is 20 characters.

When no Hospitality License is available, the parameter --info in the name -i command is not accepted.

When any individual with a name assigned is deleted by using the corresponding deletion command, its name is automatically deleted from the name data base.

Examples:

• If a generic extension has an associated name, it will be deleted when this extension number is deleted by use of the command extension -e.
• If an individual PBX operator has an associated name, it will be deleted when this individual PBX operator is deleted by use of the command OPERE.
• If a Personal Number list has an associated name, it will be deleted when this Personal Number list is deleted by use of the command call_list -e.
• If a Route has an associated name, it will be deleted when this route is deleted by use of the command ROUTE.
