Dialing Rules / Restrictions
Dialing Restrictions can prevent users from making certain external calls
from their telephones. These restrictions are specified as prefix patterns or
complete dialing numbers. Dialing Restrictions can be applied to groups
of extensions (see “
Group Options”
on page 8).
Applying dialing restrictions is a two or three step activity as follows:
1.
Define dialing patterns to be used as restrictions - these are prefixes for
certain external calls. For instance “
91
” is the prefix for long distance calls.
Prefixes can follow by “
?
” indicating a single digit, or “
*
” indicating all
subsequent digits. The use of these special characters is optional.
2.
Define dialing patterns to be used as overrides - these are potential
exceptions to the restrictions. For instance “
918
” is the prefix for toll free
1-800 calls. Or “
912146850000
” may be the telephone number of the
office in Dallas.
3.
Apply restrictions and overrides to groups of extensions. You may need to
define specific groups for this purpose (see “
Group Options”
on page 8).
