SET REMOTE (S R)
Introduction
Use the SET REMOTE or S R command to assign the ISDN number to which
the HLC must forward calls made to the telecommuter’s corporate office
telephone.
The remote number includes
■
trunk-access digits that are necessary for making an outside call from the
corporate office
■
the ISDN number of the telecommuter’s home office
Separators
The two elements of the remote number are offset by separators. Separators are
commas or periods that divide the remote number, separating the significant
digits—the ISDN number—from trunk-access digits.
The HLC recognizes
■
numeric digits (0–9)
■
commas (,), periods (.)
■
pound signs (#), asterisks (*)
■
dashes (-)
Commas are used for separation and to give a two-second delay. Periods are
used solely for separation. Pound signs and asterisks are treated as digits, and
dashes are ignored.
Separators and caller ID verification
When the security level is set to 2, calling party identification–CPID), the HLC
compares the telephone number that is the source of the incoming call to the
significant digits of the remote number. If they match, the HLC allows access. If
the incoming number does not match the significant digits of the remote number,
the HLC denies access.
