See Branch PSTN call routing examples on page 325 for information on routing back to the
branch for fallback alternate routes.
Ideally the number of such system short codes should be kept to a minimum and the same
short codes used on all branches in order to ease maintenance. This is where using a uniform
dial plan for all branches helps, as explained in
Dial plan considerations on page 30. For our
example, the uniform dial plan allows the same single short code to be used at all branches.
See the Manager context-based help for more information on creating short codes.
Note:
In the Distributed branch user model, when a short code match occurs and the telephone
number to be sent to the Avaya Aura
