Lucent Technologies 4.1 manual Disallowed Phone Number Lists #404

Disallowed Phone Number Lists (#404)

Description

This System Programming procedure specifies telephone numbers that users cannot dial. For example, you may want to prevent calls to a specific telephone number or to categories of numbers, such as international numbers. Use this procedure to create up to four lists of up to 10 telephone numbers each.

Related Features

■After completing this procedure, you must use Disallowed List Assignment (#405) to assign the Disallowed Phone Number Lists to specific extensions.

■Allowed Phone Numbers, Emergency Phone Numbers, and Marked System Speed Dial Numbers override the Disallowed List.

■The entries you must make to permit or restrict toll calls differ depending on the setting for Toll Call Prefix (#402). This setting tells the system whether a “0” (for operator-assisted calls) or “1” (for direct-dial calls) is required when you make toll calls.

Considerations

■Each list entry can include up to 12 digits. You can use the wildcard character (by pressing the [ Hold ] button on a system phone) to match any single digit (it appears as “!” on the telephone display).

■When a user dials a number that is on a Disallowed List for the user’s extension, the user hears a reorder tone (fast busy signal) after dialing the part of the number that is stored in the list (for example, an area code).

■If you want to go to another programming procedure when entering phone numbers in a list, you must use [ Next Procedure ] or [ Prev Procedure ] to do so since entering [ # ] and a 3-digit code will be considered data for the number.

Valid Entries

Up to 12 digits including 0–9, [ # ], [ ★ ], and [ Hold ] (any single digit)
