Defining operator assisted calls
Let’s look at how the switch routes an ARS call that begins with 0 and requires
operator assistance. Remember, the user dials 9 to access ARS, then a 0, then the
rest of the number.
To see how your switch handles a call to an operator:
1. Type display ars analysis 0 and press ENTER.
The AAR and ARS Digit Analysis Table screen starting with 0 appears.
The table in our example shows 6 translations for calls that begin with 0.
Instructions
Let’s use the ARS digit analysis table shown above and follow the routing for an
operator assisted a call to NJ.
— A user dials 9 0 908 956 1234.
— The switch drop s the ARS FAC (9 in our example), looks at the ARS Digit
Analysis Table for 0, and analyzes the number. The switch:
■determines that more than 1 digit was dialed
■rules out the plan for 00, 01, and 011
■determines that 11 digits were dialed
— The switch routes the call to route pattern 1 as an operator assisted call
Defining Inter-exchange carrier calls
Let’s look at how the switch routes an ARS call to an inter-exchange
(long-distance) carrier (IXC). IXC numbers directly access your long-distance
carrier lines.
