5.3.12 Assignment of Services Screen

Some carriers support call-by-call service selection in their ISDN PRI offerings. This feature allows users to select a different service (and, usually, a different billing rate) for each call placed.

If call-by-call service is supported, users must tell the system which service(s) is/are supported by each D channel, and what the code is for each service. The carrier will supply a service code for each supported service. The Service format code is always two digits, a space and the name of the service. When placing a call using call profiles, only valid service codes will be allowed (see Call Profiles below for additional information about services).

If call-by-call service selection is not supported by the carrier or not required for the user’s applications, then there is no need to assign service to a D channel.

Figure 5-19shows the Services screen and the assignment of two mythical services (MASTERPIECE and BUSINESS PLAN) to D channel #1. The service codes of “01” and “02” were assigned by the carrier to these services. Remember to Save your work before returning to the top level D channel configuration screen.

(Pressing the Clear command will erase all Service entries for the highlighted D channel.)
