ASAI and Domain Control

return_ack

This parameter enables the ECS to acknowledge the request

 

made by the adjunct. It can be set to “yes” for

 

acknowledgement or “no” for no acknowledgement. The

 

default is “no.”

priority_

[optional] If present, a priority call is placed if the destination

calling

is a local extension. If the priority flag is specified for an

 

off-ECS destination, the call is denied. The default is

 

non-priority.

uui_info

[optional] If an ASAI adjunct provides UUI in a Third Party

 

Auto Dial, then the ECS stores that UUI with the call.

 

UUI from an Auto Dial Call will be sent in any ISDN SETUP

 

message for the call, in the Alerting and Call Offered Event

 

Reports, and in a Route Request, if one is made.

 

The UUI IE sent over an ISDN trunk can contain more data

 

than the UUI IE sent to ASAI. This happens when the ISDN

 

trunk group is administered with supplementary service

 

protocol other than B and the UUI IE Treatment is set to

 

“shared”. The UUI for ASAI is packed within the shared UUI

 

before it is sent over an ISDN trunk, and is unpacked at the

 

other end.

 

This is transparent to the ASAI adjuncts, with two exceptions:

 

1. If the maximum size UUI allowed on the ISDN trunk is

 

exceeded, then the lower priority data items will be

 

dropped. Whether or not this means that ASAI UUI is

 

dropped depends on the priorities of the data items.

 

These priorities are administered on each trunk group

 

form. Each item stored in shared UUI uses two extra

 

bytes.Therefore, if the ISDN trunk group is administered

 

to allow a shared UUI length of 32 bytes then the ASAI

 

UUI will be limited to 30 bytes instead of 32.

 

2. If a service provider, or customer equipment other than a

 

DEFINITY ECS (R6.3 or later) will be interpreting the

 

contents of the UUI IE, then the trunk group used to

 

place those calls should have its UUI IE Treatment set to

 

“service-provider”. This sends the UUI as specified by

 

the ASAI application, without change.

Digital Network (ISDN),’’ in Chapter 12, ‘‘ASAI and Feature

 

Interactions.’’
