Features
The FRL assigned to telephones or Remote Access users is the opposite from
the FRL assigned to ARS routes. For ARS routes a value of 0 is the least
restrictive and a value of 6 is the most restrictive. For telephones and for
Remote Access barrier codes/trunks, a value of 0 is most restrictive and a value
of 6 is least restrictive.
The international dialing code, 011, can be included in any fully administrable
table. If this is done, calls beginning with 011 are routed according to the table
on which 011 is entered, and not according to the Dial 0 table.
The wildcard character (Pause) cannot be used in system programming to enter
area codes and/or exchanges in ARS tables.
Calls made to the equal access code (10xxx) are always routed immediately
over the main pool, regardless of whether or not they appear in other ARS
tables.
Users who are restricted from using a particular ARS route will hear a high-low
error tone indicating the call cannot be completed.
To allow determination of whether a call is toll or local, users must dial 1 before
10-digit calls. If the 1 is not required by the local Central Office, the digit
absorption feature may be used to remove it.
Some Central Offices still require the prefix 1 for dialing certain exchanges. If 1
+ 7-Digit Dialing Requirements is programmed as Within Area Code, the
system will expect either dial timeout or a # (end of dialing) to indicate whether
a 1 + 7-digit or a 1 + 10-digit number has been dialed. (This may result in
delays while the user waits for timeout.) To avoid timeout delays, 1 + 7-Digit
Dialing Requirements can be administered as Not within Area Code, but
all exchanges requiring a pre-pended 1 must be listed in a Local Exchange
Table and the 1 must be specified as a character to be pre-pended. In this
case, users must not dial the 1 before dialing those exchanges.
Area Codes 800 and 900 are treated as entries in programmable tables. They
may be administered as either area codes or as exchanges.
