When a 4ESS is configured, many installations will require the national
form where possible; this may also be the preferred form in 10-digit calling
areas.
Strip MSD
Write Security: 3 Read Security: 5
This option allows a selected quantity of the Most Significant Digits (MSD) of
a dialed number for ATLAS to be stripped prior to being forwarded out of the
port.
Example:
A Network port could be set to accept all calls beginning with 9 (9$), and then
with Strip MSD set to 1, all digits would be sent toward the Network except
the leading 9.
The Strip MSD parameter does not affect the Call Accept criteria. All of
the digits (including the MSDs that are subsequently stripped) are used as
accept criteria.
Network Specific Facility Voice
Write Security: 3 Read Security: 5
This option allows for the definition of specific facility IEs be sent to the Net-
work. This would be used if the customer has subscribed to special facilities
such as AT&T Megacom service. The facility request sent can be different for
voice calls versus data calls. A setting of
Normal indicates no special facilities
have been subscribed.
Network Specific Facility Data
Write Security: 3 Read Security: 5
This option allows for the definition of specific facility IEs be sent to the Net-
work. This would be used if the customer has subscribed to special facilities
such as AT&T Megacom service. The facility request sent can be different for
voice calls versus data calls. A setting of
Normal indicates no special facilities
have been subscribed.
Called Digits Transferred
Write security: 2; Read security: 5
Some PRI switches may be provisioned to only send a portion of the called num-
ber (like DID). This menu item allows ATLAS to know how many digits to expect
(choose from
None, Three, Four, and All ). The default is All and would almost
always be correct. If less than All digits are sent, then the prefix is defined below.
Outgoing Caller ID
Write Security: 3 Read Security: 5
This item allows the user to insert a called ID based on selection. If set to
Send as
Provided , then ATLAS will forward whatever ID it receives (including none). If
set to Substitute if not present, then ATLAS will insert a User defined ID value if
no value is received. If set to Substitute Always, then ATLAS will always insert
the user-defined ID in place of the value received.
