Hi all.

We are swappping LD carriers tomorrow and I need to know the current list of codes. I believe we have about 20.
Does the new carrier set these up?

The reason I ask is because when I go to load 88 and prt aut. I get an error code auth006. We do use a 4 digit code for outgoing long distance codes

We dial 9 the number then wait for the tone before dialing the code.

I would appreciate any insight. Thanks for the time as always
 
Your AUT codes wont change is you switch Carriers.

They are in the switch, not the carrier.

Think of them as a Filter to get to that carrier.
 
you can have codes through the carrier. MCI pin codes are something we use. Since you are getting the auth006 error i would say contact the carrier.
 
yeah sounds like you have carrier based auth, since you dont enter the code until after dialing

in my PBX using LD 88 auth codes you need to enter a valid code PRIOR to dialing
 
on one of our switches we can enter spre+auth code than phone number or phone number than authcode. So either way is configurable. The auth006 which says no authcodes built is what makes me say its carrier based.
 
good to know...

i'd be curious how to confgiure my system to be exclusively Post-dial/prompted auth code functionality, i like that better
 
I appeciate the responses. That definately clears things up.

Thanks for the time.
 
You need the NAUT package (I think 163?), and then 9 + number (wait) code should work. The code first is the basic auth code which is a base package.
 
ld 88
prt
aut

ld 88
prt
aub

ld 86
prt
rlb
see if you have a mfrl value set.. i use auth codes and the mfrl is required to give the auth tone after all digits are dialed
