500 Configuring restriction service
N0008589 3.3
Programming note: This service requires the user to enter a service control password before it
can be accessed. Users obtain this password from their system coordinator. Refer to “Defining the
service control password” on page 491 .
Notes about restriction service filters
These filters are assigned for both telephones and lines. If no restriction filter has been assigned for
a telephone or line for the schedule that you make active, then no restrictions will apply to that
telephone or line while the schedule is in effect.
Line filters apply to all telephones which have that line assigned.
However, a group of telephones can have different filters for the same schedule. Therefore, you
need to be aware of what services you are allowing or disallowing for all telephones assigned to
the control telephone you are using. If you are unsure, or want to change a filter for a telephone,
you must open a programming session on the Unified Manager and check the DN record for the
telephone. Refer to the
Programming Operations Guide for details about setting up telephone
restrictions. For easier administration, you might consider making the filters the same for all
telephones connected to a control telephone, with the exception of the control telephone.

Attribute Value Description
Service setting Off
Auto
Manual Off prevents the service from being activated.
Auto allows you to program a stop and start time for a service under the
Common Settings heading. These times are then automatically executed when
the service is active.
Example: If you want your evening calls to be routed through a different carrier,
you can create the timing for this on one of the spare schedules. You would then
find the same schedule under Routing Service and set it to automatic. When you
turn Routing Service on, and choose this schedule, the telephone will
automatically route all calls through the alternate carrier for the times specified.
Manual allows you to turn the service on and off at any time from a control
telephone. This setting overrides any automatically-running schedules.
Example: You may have a restriction service Night schedule that prevents
callers from making long distance calls. Since the Manual setting does not
recognize any timing schedules, you can turn this service on at any time and it
will be in effect immediately. To allow long distance calls, you would turn this
service off at the control telephone, or specify a different schedule that contains
a different set of restrictions.
