Establish a MASI Path with the following attributes:
nNear-End Path Extension — An unassigned DEFINITY extension. When 
using the 
chgmasi command to administer the MMCX, this is the farpath 
extension. See the MMCX Technical Reference for more information.
nMASI Node — The node number for the MMCX. For each MMCX/MASI 
node, this number must be the same everywhere it occurs (signaling group, 
masi trunk group, and masi terminal forms). 
nTrunk Group — This is the DEFINITY trunk group number for the 
ISDN-PRI trunk that will be used to establish call paths. 
nFar-End Path Termination Number — This is an unassigned MMCX 
extension. When using the 
chgmasi command to administer the MMCX, 
this is the nearpath extension. See the MMCX Technical Reference for more 
information. 
Step 8 — Administer MASI trunk groups 
You use the MASI trunk group form to define MMCX interfaces that interconnect 
MASI nodes, or that connect MMCX nodes to another private switch or central 
office. Examples of MMCX interfaces include:
nPRI trunks linking MMCX servers
nPRI trunks linking MMCX to the PSTN
nPRI trunks from MMCX to a DEFINITY system that are used for purposes 
other than MASI 
nLAN interfaces linking MMCX servers
Use the command 
add masi trunk-group xxx (or ‘next’) to access the MASI 
Trunk Group form. The trunk group number must not be assigned, and you cannot 
exceed the maximum total trunks for your system. Valid values for xxx are unused 
DEFINITY trunk group numbers between 1–96 for G3si/csi configurations, and 
1–120 for G3r configurations.

Screen 5. MASI Trunk Group Form
nGroup Number — This field displays the MASI trunk group number. This 
is the number assigned when executing the
 add masi trunk-group 
command. 
nCDR Reports — Valid entries are “y,” “n,” and “r.” Default is “y.”
— If you enter “y,” CDR records will be generated by completed 
outgoing calls terminated on this trunk group. If incoming calls are 
being recorded (the Record Outgoing Calls Only field on the CDR 
System Parameters form is set to “n”), then a single CDR record will 
be generated for answered calls with the call duration.
— If you enter “n,” no CDR records will be generated by calls 
originated by or terminated on this trunk group.
nGroup Name — Enter a unique name that identifies the trunk group. Up to 
27 characters can be used; default is “INCOMING CALL.”
nCOR — Enter a class of restriction (COR) number (0–95) that reflects the 
desired restriction; default is “1.”
nTN — This field displays the Tenant Partition number. All MASI trunks are 
associated with Tenant 1. 
nTA C — Enter the trunk access code (TAC) that identifies the trunk group 
on CDR reports. You must assign a different TAC to each MMCX 
interface. Valid entries conform to the dial plan (1–4 digits, * and # are 
valid first digits).
nMASI Node Number — The node number assigned to this MMCX 
machine. 
nRemote Group Number — This is the number of the remote trunk group. 
For ISDN-PRI interfaces, valid values are any number 1–8; for LAN or 
WAN calling interfaces, the value must be 9. The combination of MASI 
Node Number and Remote Group Number must be unique. Remote group 
number corresponds to the group number on the MASI node.

Step 9 — Administer MASI terminals 
Use the 
add masi terminal xxxxx or next command to administer each MASI 
terminal as a MASI terminal. You use available extensions on the ECS, so they 
need to conform to DEFINITY ECS dial plan. The extension must match the 
DEFINITY dial plan, and for the add command, the extension must not already be 
in use.The extension of the MASI terminal must match the number of the MASI 
terminal.
DEFINITY ECS users dial the MASI Terminal Extension to reach MMCX users.
NOTE:
Anytime you add a terminal or other extension to the MMCX, you must 
administer a corresponding MASI terminal on the DEFINITY ECS. If you 
do not, you will not be able to dial this extension from the DEFINITY ECS.
Screen 8. MASI Terminal Form — page 1
nExtension — This field displays the extension that you entered on the 
command line. 
nBCC — This field displays the bearer capability class of the terminal, and 
identifies the type of traffic the terminal supports. For MASI, this is always 
0, for voice or voice-grade data. 
nMASI Node Number — The number of the node on which this terminal 
resides. 
nTN — The tenant partition in which this terminal resides. At present, all 
MASI terminals must reside within tenant 1. This field is display-only, and 
always 1.

Step 10 — Administer features
AAR/ARS
1. AAR/ARS is an optional feature on DEFINITY ECS, and you need to 
purchase this option to use it with MMCX. To verify that this feature is 
enabled, use the command 
display system-parameters 
customer-options
. If it is not enabled, contact your Lucent Technologies 
representative. 
2. The MMCX dial plan must use the same feature access codes as the 
DEFINITY ECS. If this is not already the case, modify the MMCX dial 
plan using the 
chgdp command. See the MMCX Technical Reference for 
more information. 
3. Include this feature access code in the 
chgmasi command. 
CDR
1. To get call detail records for calls over MMCX interfaces, set 
CDR Reports = y on the MASI Trunk Group form. 
2. To get call records for calls over the ISDN-PRI trunk group, set 
CDR Reports = y on the ISDN-PRI Trunk Group form.
3. To track calls between a MASI terminal and other MASI terminals or 
DEFINITY stations, enter the MASI terminal extension on the Intraswitch 
CDR form. 
4. Enter n in the Record Non-Call Assoc TSC field on the CDR System 
Parameters form. 
NOTE:
If you use the same PRI trunks for MASI and non-MASI calls, it is strongly 
recommended that you do not enable CDR for these calls. Establish a 
separate trunk group for non-MASI calls and set CDR Reports = n.

Coverage
To establish coverage from a MASI terminal to AUDIX:
1. Use the MMCX user interface to enter the AUDIX hunt group extension as 
the coverage point. You cannot use DEFINITY coverage administration for 
MASI terminals. 
2. If AUDIX ports are not administered on DEFINITY, do so. 
3. Set up the MASI terminal as an AUDIX subscriber. Enter the MASI 
terminal extension in the extension field on the Subscriber Administration 
form.
To establish coverage from a MASI terminal to another MMCX terminal or 
DEFINITY station:
1. Use the MMCX user interface to enter the desired extension as the 
coverage point for the MASI terminal. You cannot use DEFINITY 
coverage administration for MASI terminals.
Step 11 — Verify administration
Make test calls from DEFINITY to MMCX, ensure that you can indeed place and 
receive calls. 
Call an unattended MASI terminal. Verify that the call goes to AUDX. Retrieve 
the call from the MASI terminal. Verify that all works as expected. 
MASI command permissions
If you are the super-user for your system, you can restrict other administrative 
logins from changing MASI administration. To do this, use the 
change 
permissions (login-ID) 
command. Enter y in the Additional Restrictions field, 
then move to the Restricted Object List page of the form.
You may restrict the following MASI-related objects:
nmasi-path-parameters
nmasi-terminal
nmasi-trunk-group
nmasi-tsc
