End of dialing (incoming)

End of dialing for an incoming call can be configured by using the CLI. See Table 3, for the end of dialing options.

Table 3 Minimum (or fixed) number length + timer parameters

Option	Parameters	Meaning	Default
Explicit ‘End of dial’ signal	None	The preset option for all	Yes
(I-15)		countries. However, signal
		has low significance, because
		the end of dialing is
		determined by the BCM (PRI
		side) when it receives the last
		digit of the number.
Minimum (or fixed) number	Minimal number of digits	Receiving minimum number of	No
length and timer		digits + optional number of
		digits means end of dial
Minimum (or fixed) number	Optional number of additional		No
		(maximum length reached)
length and timer	digits
		When a fixed length number is
		always expected, set the
		optional number of digits to 0.
Minimum (or fixed) number	Interdigit timer in the minimal	Expiry of the long timer means	No
length and timer	interval (long timer)	MFC error - number
		incomplete.
Minimum (or fixed) number	Interdigit timer in the optional	Expiry of the short timer	No
length and timer	interval (short timer)	means end of dial.

End of dialing (outgoing)

End of dialing in outgoing calls is indicated by MFC signal “I15” (or equivalent country-specific signal). This signal is sent if the far-end requests next digit beyond the last digit of the dialed number.

When R2MFC MBM originates a call to the CO, the R2MFC MBM has already received the whole dialed number from the BCM. This is because the digits are passed from BCM to the MBM by PRI “en-bloc.” This operation mode means that BCM determines user end-of-dialing either by number of digits, explicit input from user (for example, the “#” digit), or timeout.

Disable ANI

The ANI request option can be disabled. When disabled:

•Incoming call — R2MFC MBM does not request ANI.

•Outgoing call — When far end requests ANI, R2MFC MBM answers “ANI not available.”
