![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I've run the Dialed Number Analyzer on the Cisco side for 230X and the calls are being routed correctly, and I can also see them traversing the PRI gateway so it appears that the 11c is rejecting calls to the park slots over the TIE lines/channels. Meanwhile, another 11c user can dial the 230X number and retrieve the call successfully Cisco CM user picks up phone and dials 230X 11c Phone receives a call (in this case from another 2616 on the 11c) I also checked the RCLS on the ROUT for the TIE lines and it's set to INT (used to be EXT, but it makes no difference for the park functionality from what I've found). The issue I'm facing is that I'm unable to successfully retrieve the calls parked on the 11c from my Cisco CM extensions despite having the appropriate routes set up. On the 11c parking works as expected with calls being parked from 2616 digital phones, and picked up from any other phone (on the 11c) by dialing the 230X park slot displayed.įrom the perspective of the TIE lines, everything is working perfectly as well (except for park) - I can 4 digit dial from the 11c to the Cisco CM extensions via DSCs and can dial 11c extensions from the Cisco CM (via CM routes pointing at a gateway that connects the PRI to the 11c), there's also working caller ID, and outside call tandem'ing thru the Cisco CM SIP trunks to the outside world. In my setup there's a Cisco CM tied to an Opt 11c where there are 5 park slots defined (11c park slots: 2300-2304). Had a question about park pickup across TIE lines (PRI set up for DMS100). ![]() ![]() ![]() In the end the man managed to secure the boat, but it was unclear whether the waves had grown bored of teasing him or whether the captain’s experience and patience had got the better of them. It was as though the sea were playing with them, showing them who was in charge. ![]() He patiently repeated the same movements over and over, pulling the frayed rope in the direction of the post, but each time the coarse loop was about to fall into place, it seemed to be yanked away. ![]() The skipper struggled to fasten the little boat to a narrow steel post, but the weathered floating dock kept retreating, as if it were part of a game. The prow bobbed gently up and down as sharper movements shook the vessel, rocking it fiercely from side to side.

Clark’s wife Anna and Huguette and Andree, daughters of that marriage, lived there until his death in 1925. Interestingly enough, the cover of the book does not show the mansions and apartments that Huguette abandoned, but the lavish nine-story home that her father, William Andrews Clark built on Millionaire’s Row in Manhattan. ![]() ![]() The book covers all typography essentials, from typefaces and type families, to kerning and tracking, to using a grid.
