Uniform Dial Plan (UDP)
Issue 4 May 2003 151555-233-767
VALU
Call coverage
This feature provides similar call coverage as DCS call coverage and Call
Coverage Remote Off Net (C-CRON). The call will come back if covered over
QSIG. The functionality will only be complete when all the switches are running
under Communication Manager and using QSIG VALU. The covered-to party can
still receive distinct alerting.
Call coverage and CAS
When a trunk has both CAS and VALU Call Coverage activated, the coverage
display information is provided on calls that cover from a branch PBX to the main
PBX. Path replacement will be attempted after coverage.
Distinctive alerting
Provides distinctive ringing, internal and external, to the remote called party when
the call is routed over the QSIG network.
Uniform Dial Plan (UDP)
A unique four- or five-digit number assigned to each station on the network.
Uniform numbering gives each station a unique number (location code plus
extension) that can be used at any location in the electronic tandem network to
access that station, Communication Manager enhances the standard UDP with the
unrestricted 5-digit Uniform Dial Plan, which allows up to five digits to be parsed
for call routing.
Dial Plan Expansion (DPE)
Communication Manager allows you to expand your dial plan to 6 or 7 digits
(from 4-digit or 5-digit dial plans). This affects all extensions, including stations,
data modules, agent login IDs, vectors, and so on.
This change increases the total number of extensions that can exist in any dial
plan. It also allows Avaya servers to participate in networks that already use
6-digit or 7-digit dial plans — for example, a network of switches made by other
vendors.
Administrators have the flexibility to administer dial plans between 3 and 7 digits
in length, and Communication Manager supports mixed digit lengths in the same
dial plan.
