The egress table is a list of telephone numbers assigned to one or more of the voice channels within the local Passport 4400 unit.
Each number may or may not include a manipulation string. If included, the manipulation string is used to provide advance functions such as call forwarding or redirecting. The same alphanumeric characters are used as shown in the ingress table manipulation string described earlier, with some modifications. As noted before, the manipulation string in the egress table is unrelated to the manipulation string in the ingress table.
If your number in the egress table does not include a manipulation string, calls will terminate at the voice port that matches the configured telephone number. If that termination is a PBX station or trunk, the PBX will return a dial tone. The user may then manually forward the call (go off the network) by dialing an additional string of requisite numbers. If the termination is an FXS port, the telephone set attached to that port will ring.
You may use one of two procedures to set the egress table:
