Network Options

This form like other menu items in the "Options menu" affects settings for the local client.

Network options is to allow the system administrator to choose how best to find the user name that both the client and the MONTEL Server will recognise from the PABX.INI file. To do this the MonTel client give you a choice of which type of network client it checks first. To speed this process up (slightly) you may elect to specify only one network type for MONTEL to check.

These settings however can be overwritten by settings in the PABX.INI files as well as a DEFAULTS.INI file.

If the settings are present in PABX.INI then they override the settings in MONTEL.INI.

[Network]
ExitMontelIfNoNetwork=0
NetworkDisplayUserError=0
NetworkCheckOrder=4 ;(0 is the default)
DebugShowSettings=0

These settings override the local MonTel.INI settings only if AlwaysUseDefaults = 0 (see above). These are used to set up network wide settings rather than changing them locally. If you are using DEFAULTS.INI and AlwaysUseDefaults = 1, the DEFAULTS.INI settings AND these settings will be ignored. The network check order will always be 0 which is Netware first. ExitMontelIfNoNetwork=1, is useful if you have lap tops that frequently disconnect from the network. Setting this to 1, and setting NetworkDisplayUserError=0 will prevent MONTEL from displaying continual errors as it attempts to find the local users call record database on the file server.
