Chapter 11. Dial Plan

 

 

PORTS AVAILABLE

Indicates which of the two ports of the ATLAS 550 have already been

 

defined either in another switched endpoint (indicated by S) or in a DEDI-

 

CATED MAP (indicated by N). This field is read-only.

NUMBER OF PORTS

Defines to the ATLAS 550 how many of the ports could be used to answer

 

calls to the number(s) defined in the INCOMING ACCEPT CALL LIST. You can

 

enter numbers 1 or 2. The ports are contiguous beginning with the port

 

number selected and the number of ports.

 

Example:

 

If the port selected (as a part of the SLOT/PORT selection) is 2, and the num-

 

ber of ports selected here was 1, then only port 2 would be enabled to

 

receive calls to the numbers listed under the INCOMING CALL ACCEPT LIST.

NUMBER TO DIAL

Indicates the number to be dialed.

CALL TYPE

Indicates whether the call will be 64K or 56K data rate: 56K is intended for

 

use in applications where interoperability with SWITCHED 56 service is de-

 

sired. 64K is the default call type.

DIAL CALL AS

Indicates how the call will be handled over the network: DIGITAL, VOICE, or AUDIO.

DIGITAL

Requests a 56 kbps data circuit that is rate-adapted to 56 kbps or an unre-

 

stricted 64 kbps data circuit.

VOICE

Requests a Mu-law/A-law speech circuit as the bearer capability for outgo-

 

ing calls. Use VOICE with an ISDN line configured for voice service. In some

 

areas, voice service costs less than data service. A VOICE call type does not

 

guarantee an end-to-end digital connection with some local and long dis-

 

tance carriers.

AUDIO

Requests a 3.1 kHz audio circuit as the bearer capability for outgoing calls.

 

Use AUDIO with an ISDN line configured for voice service. In some areas

 

audio service is less expensive than data service. An AUDIO call type guar-

 

antees a digital end-to-end ISDN connection.

SOURCE ID

Simplifies the creation of a DIAL PLAN in applications where the criterion for

 

switching calls to a certain endpoint is a function of which endpoint origi-

 

nated the call.

 

• Default value = 0. The default ID for all endpoints is 0 and for all accept

 

numbers is 0. With default values, all calls are routed based only on the

 

dialed number.

 

• Multiple endpoints can have the same Source ID.

 

• When creating the Call Accept list, specify a Source ID(s) as well as a di-

 

aled number or range of dialed numbers to accept.

 

Example:

 

An application requires that all calls that originate from Port 1 of the

 

ATLAS 550 in Slot 1 be switched to Port 2 of that same module. Assign a

 

unique Source ID (e.g. 7) to Port 1 of the module, and then configure Port 2

 

to only accept calls from that unique Source ID (7).
