Area Code

The local area code. This is used for sending caller ID to the Network.

Number Complete Template Write security: 1; Read security: 5

For any outgoing call, ATLAS must be able to recognize when the phone number is complete. For example, a local number will be seven digits long while a long distance (1+ #) will be 11 digits long. The ATLAS defaults will cover almost any installation, and these templates should not require any additional user input except for unusual circumstances. The template allows the use of “wildcard” inputs to define numbers:

X= Any single digit

N= Any single digit 2—9

911= This specific number

[1,2,3...] = A single digit in this group

Example:

1+(NXX) NXX - XXXX would be a pattern for a normal long distance call. Note that the symbols ( ), +, - and space are not required and are only used to improve readability.

Number Type Templates Write security: 1; Read security: 5

ISDN interfaces require that a number type be sent over the D channel when a call is sent or received. A normal RBS trunk does not send a type designator, but uses prefixes instead. For example, “1 +” prefix is national long distance call type while a “011 +” prefix would be an international long distance call type. These templates form a table to permit ATLAS to translate the RBS prefix into a call type for ISDN and vice- versa. The ATLAS default templates should cover all applica- tions and should not need to be added to by the user except for very rare circum- stances.

Automatic Routeback Rejection

Write security: 1; Read security: 5

Use extreme caution when disabling this option!

When enabled, Automatic Routeback Rejection prevents calls which enter through network termination interfaces from being forwarded out another network inter- face. Such an event could happen if an incoming call specifies a number that has no endpoint configured to accept it and another network interface has a call acceptance entry which could accept it (such as $). Without automatic rejection, such a call would be forwarded back to the Network. The Network would in turn resend the call to the unit until all incoming resources are consumed.
