Defining Features
Inhibit Others Element
The Inhibit Others Element tag defines the list of features that are inhibited when a given feature is in
an Assigned or Invoked state. Table 3 lists the attributes of the Inhibit Others Element.
Feature Inhibitions prevent invocation of a given feature if a specified feature is Activated, Deactivated,
Invoked, Assigned. For example, when the emergency call is involved then the Call Waiting is inhibited.
The FIM/XML tool expects the defined element in the External FIM/XML file as indicated in the
following sections.
<inhibit-others state="ASSIGNED" feature-name="CNAM"/>
<inhibit-others state="INVOKED" feature-name="MOH"/>
Inhibit Me Element
The Inhibit Me element defines the list of features that inhibit the external feature when the features are
in the following states: Activated, Deactivated, Assigned, or Invoked. Table 4 lists the attributes of the
Inhibit Me Element.
The FIM/XML tool expects the defined element in the External FIM/XML file as indicated in the
following sections.
<inhibit-me feature-name="CCW" state="DEACTIVATED"/>
<inhibit-me feature-name="CW" state="INVOKED"/>
Response Profile Element
When the defined external feature is invoked, the system receives different responses or errors,
depending on what happened during the feature invocation. This allows the operator to specify what
actions need to be taken when specific errors or responses (SIP Responses) are received from the
Application Servers.
For example, when an external feature is invoked, an INVITE is sent by Cisco BTS 10200 to the
Application Server and no application server can return an error response such as “401 unauthorised”
error. You can define the action that Cisco BTS 10200 can take using the Response Profile element.
