12.2 Authorization Code
Authorization codes are used to control or limit the access to an exten-
sion. When an extension is controlled by an authorization code, certain
profiles will not be allowed to make calls to other countries, for example.
If you are authorized to use the authorization code, you will be able to
open up the extension to use more features.
There are two kinds of authorization codes:
•Common
Individual
See the following sections for procedures for both types of authorization
codes.
12.2.1 Common Authorization Code
If the extension you are using has a common authorization code associ-
ated with it, you need to follow the procedures below in order to make
calls, and to lock and unlock the extension.
You can use the code for one call only, or you can open the phone for
use until you lock it when leaving the phone.
Note: The common authorization code cannot be changed by the user.
The common authorization code provides two different functions:
Locking and unlocking of an extension. A locked extension uses a
lower common category code or common service profile.
Authorization code dialing. The calling party may use other catego-
ries or service profiles than those specified for the extension.
12.2.1.1 Dialing From an Extension
To make a call from an extension with a common authorization code, do
the following:
1. Dial *72* authorization code #.
Wait for a verification tone. If the code is not verified, the default
common service profile will be used.
2. Dial the external number.
Note: If the category or common service profile for the dialed authoriza-
tion code is too low for the call, the call is rejected.
