Field descriptions
Dial-out number
Numbers that are dialed out by administered connections for
each channel in the call. The dial Out #1 and #2 on page 1 of
the forms display the DCP endpoint number. This is particularly
useful with bonding dial-out calls.
Connection
State
The call state of the AC. The following are connection states
associated with dial-out ACs:
“enabled” = Transient in nature indicating that an AC is about to
enter the “attempting to connect” state.
“disabled” = one of three options:
■
The AC reaches an administered retry threshold, and all
retries are stopped. To verify this, check the Error Log to
see if an error type of
9 is logged against the AC.
■
The AC is in a connected state with the far end
disconnected.
■
The initial channel call is not connected. No dial out call
attempt is made for the additional channels until the initial
channel has reaches a connected state.
“not scheduled” = Transient in nature, indicating that an AC is
about to enter the “attempting to connect” state.
“waiting to retry” = The AC is inactive, waiting for the retry timer
to expire. Once the timer expires, the AC sends a dial out call
and enters the “attempting to connect” state. In this state, dial
out calls fail at least once.
“attempting to connect” = The AC is active, but has not
connected.
“connected” = The call associated with the AC is answered and
joins cut-thru to the conference.
Retry Count
Tallies the attempted retries for this AC during join attempts and
does not clear when the AC connects. However, it clears when
the Redial feature attempts a new join. This differs from the
Join Count
which counts the number of times the channel
joins the conference during this conference session.
Failure
Cause
An ISDN or CPTR cause value (values lower than 0x7f) records
when the last dial out call drops. Values above 0x7f are
generated internally.
Table 8-14 lists all possible failure cause
values displayed by this field and its associated description. The
Failure Cause
value logs in the Error Log and displays with
the display errors command. ( Err Type is normally
displayed as a decimal.)
