Allowed Lists

DESCRIPTION

CONSIDERATIONS

ADMINISTRATION

When the MERLIN II system is first set up, all voice terminals can be used for all types of calls. However, the administrator can restrict selected voice terminals so that people can use them to place only intercom or local calls (see “Call Restriction” ) If that is too limiting, the administrator can allow people with restricted voice terminals to call particular area codes and/or exchanges by assigning lists of these permitted numbers (allowed lists) to the vice terminals.

●Only the system administrator can establish allowed lists.

●A system can have up to eight allowed lists, each with as many as ten entries. Each entry can contain a leading 1, if required, plus a maximum of six characters. These can be an area code, an exchange code, an area code plus an exchange code, or an emergency number such as 911.

Get the Allowed–Lists Form for the system. Follow the appropriate steps, below, to set up allowed lists, assign voice terminals access to lists, and get a printout showing how you’ve administered this feature.
