Hop Lmt
Enter the number of hops for each preference. A hop is when a call tandems
through a switch to another destination. Limiting the number of hops prevents
circular hunting, which ties up trunk facilities without ever completing the call.
DEFINITY ECS blocks a hop equal to or greater than the number you enter.
Toll List
This entry is not required for AAR.
3■Send a 1 on all long-distance calls and keep or insert the NP A (are a
code) so that all long distance calls are 10-digit calls. The NPA is
inserted when a user dials a Prefix digit 1 plus 7-digits.
Prefix Mark 3 refers to a Toll Table to define long distance codes.
4■Always suppress a user-dialed Prefix digit 1.
Use Prefix Mark 4, for example, when ISDN calls route to a switch
that rejects calls with a prefix digit 1.
