4.1.Basic Services

4.1.1. Originating a Phone Call

Service Description

Placing telephone a call to another telephone

 

or telephony system (IVR, conference bridge,

 

etc.). This is the most basic service.

 

 

User Action Required to Activate or Use

When the user picks up the handset, the SPA

 

provides dial tone and is ready to collect dialing

 

information via DTMF digits from the telephone

 

touchtone key pad.

 

 

Expected Call and Network Behavior

While it is possible to support overlapped

 

dialing within the context of SIP, the SPA

 

collects a complete phone number and sends

 

the full number in a SIP INVITE message to the

 

proxy server for further call processing. In order

 

to minimize dialing delay, the SPA maintains a

 

dial plan and matches it against the cumulative

 

number entered by the user. The SPA also

 

detects invalid phone numbers not compatible

 

with the dial plan and alerts the user via a

 

configurable tone (Reorder).

 

 

User Action Required to Deactivate or End

Hang-up the telephone.
