Individual Station Call Routing

[Poltergeek]

I currently have an PSTN PRI to Asterisk PRI to Definity system in place. I currently have all calls transparently passing through the Asterisk box. I want to start taking one extention(station) at a time off the definity and move it to the Aserisk box. Everything works great on the Asterisk box, but I cannot figure out how to get the definity to route a single station through the PRI to the asterisk box seemlessly. So I have DID's 6000 to 6099. I want say 6062 when dialed to go out the PRI instead of Station 6062 while all the other 6000 numbers stay the same. It's easy to do that kind of routing on Asterisk, so I hope it is possible on the Definity. Any Ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks,

Use uniform dialing and aar analysis. You can do this on individual stations or blocks of numbers.

Definity / CM hardware platform? Software version?

Definity g3 v6... It's old. Unfortunatly, uniform dialing is not enabled on this old system as a customer option. It is available, but even lucent would know how to enable it now. If only I had the init password. I am hoping it is still do-able. Thanks,

There are other ways to do this if uniform dialing is turned off.

I am a hack Definity admin at best, so if you could elaborate a little I would really appreciate it. Thanks,

      Auto Alternate Routing (AAR) Access Code: 8

This is poor man's UDP (uniform dialplan) with no private networking turned on.

9 2222 1001
9 2222 1002

These should not conflict with local or LD numbers min 8 max 8 route to route 
pattern, delete 4 digits (2222) The last 4 will be sent to the trunk-group

you could also shorten it to 9 + 6 with no conflicts

9221001
9221002

min 6 max 6 

route to route pattern, delete 2 digits (22)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Or use secondary ARS 7 +

This would be like 4 digit stations starting with 7

route to route pattern, don't delete any, insert 7

Oof, I will have to take some time to digest all that and try it. I think I might like the remote coverage path best. I will have to test it. Thanks a lot. I will let you know how it turns out.

Poltergeek!

 

[Poltergeek]

Well, that does technically work. I wish there was an option for 0 rings in the cov path. Also, the definity is not passing caller id with the coverage path option. I did not want to go with an feature access code, because I did not want my users to dial 6060 for one extention and 96062 for another. I wish I had a more elegant way of doing it. I have so much more control on Asterisk that it is hard for me to fathom how inflexible these old Definity's are. Thanks for your help. If you have any other suggestions to make it more elegant, I would love to hear it as well. I really appreciate your help AvayaTier3. You are awesome! It's people like you who make these forums awesome!

Wow, I found it! The perfect solution was so flipping easy! I found a setting in the dial plan call eta routing pattern. Once I set that to be my pri route then all extensions that I delete from definity automatically get routed through to asterisk without delay! How awesome! Thank you!
