To override this feature, users can dial Marked
System Speed Dial
Numbers,
and numbers from an
Allowed Phone Number List (#407)
or the
Emergency Phone Number List (#406).
Also, if a
System Password
(#403)
is defined, system phone users can enter it to override restrictions
(the password cannot be used on MLC-6 or standard phones).
Use
Line Access Restriction (#302)
to restrict extensions from making or
receiving calls on specific lines and
Disallowed Phone Number Lists
(#404)
to specify telephone numbers that users cannot dial.
If you program an extension for
Forced Account Code Entry (#307),
the
user at that extension must enter an account code before accessing an
outside line. (This feature is not available on standard phones.)
Considerations
While procedures that restrict dialing are very effective, absolute protection
against misuse cannot be guaranteed. System phones give you more
protection against such misuse than standard phones. Therefore, we
strongly recommend that you install system phones where restricting phone
use is important.
If the system is connected to a PBX or Centrex system and a dial-out code
(usually 9) is needed to place calls outside the PBX or Centrex system, the
control unit may not be able to prevent calls for extensions restricted to
“Local Only.” If dialing restrictions are needed on Centrex lines, use
Centrex restrictions instead.
