If you dial 9 followed by 1, a 3-digit area code and a 7-digit number, you access a line for long-distance calls in North America, as defined in line hunt group 82.

If you dial 9 followed by 01, the call is blocked. At the extension, you hear a prompt stating “You are not permitted to dial this number” and then a normal dial tone.

If you dial 9 followed by 01161, an area code and a phone number, you access a line for calls to Australia, as defined in line hunt group 83.

Line hunt group 80 is used for Same Line Connect. If line hunt group 80 is enabled, it will be subject to ARS blocking rules.

Set local extension hunt group access

By default, all line hunt groups for each local extension are enabled. If you wish to restrict access to some line hunt groups, you need to disable the line hunt groups at the local extension.

1.Open the TalkSwitch configuration software.

2.Select System Information -> Local Extensions.

3.Click the Hunt Group Access button.

4.Remove the checkmark (by clicking it) next to the line hunt groups you do not want to allow for that local extension.

Repeat these steps for all your local extensions. When you allow access to line hunt groups that have ARS activated, the calls are routed through ARS.

Direct Line Access

If you enable Direct Line Access on an extension, calls placed from that local extension are routed to the designated line hunt group. If ARS is enabled on that line hunt group, the calls are routed through ARS.
