Enhanced Local Dialing

Enhanced Local Dialing

The 1600 Series IP Telephones have a variety of telephony-related applications that might obtain a telephone number during operation. For example, the Call Log saves a number of an incoming caller. The telephones can evaluate a raw telephone number. Based on administered parameters, the telephone can automatically prepend the correct digits, saving the user time and effort. This is the Enhanced Dialing feature. The key to the success of this feature is accurate administration of several important values, summarized below.

Note:

In all cases, the values you administer are the values relevant to the location of the Avaya Media Server at which the IP telephones are registered. If a telephone is in Japan, but its media server is in the United States, set the PHNCC value to “1" for the United States.

In all cases, the digits the telephones insert and dial are subject to standard Avaya Media Server features and administration. This includes Class of Service (COS), Class of Restriction (COR), Automatic Route Selection (ARS), and so on.

As indicated in Table 8, you can administer the system parameter

ENHDIALSTAT to turn off the Enhanced Local Dialing feature.

The system values relevant to the Enhanced Dialing Feature are:

●PHNCC - the international country code of the media server.

For example, “1” for the United States, “44” for the United Kingdom, and so on.

●PHNDPLENGTH - the length of the dial plan on the media server.

●PHNIC - the digits the media server dials to access public network international trunks. For example, “011” for the United States.

●PHNLD - the digit dialed to access public network long distance trunks on the media server.

●PHNLDLENGTH - the maximum length, in digits, of the national telephone number for the country in which the Avaya Media Server is located.

●PHNOL - the character(s) dialed to access public network local trunks on the media server.
