routing question 1

[Klowndog]

Is there a way that I can restrict all users from dialing an internal number using AC1 (ie my extention is 3060, and someone for some reason were to dial 91847...) so that it does not go out to the local CO than back in?
A problem came up today where I had a user stating that he attempted to conference in a coworker and then after that call was established he conferenced in a number outside our switch. He then dropped the call and said the call would not stay up.
I recently found out that if someone were to externally dial an internal DN that it would go out to the local CO then back in. I beleive I was at a site where they were able to restrict that and route the call as if it were internal. Can this be done or am I thinking of something different

Thank you all in advance.

You should be able to do that with LDID. You will have to set up a DMI in LD 86 that deletes 7 digits (if you have 4 digit extensions, for example). Then in LD 90, under your NPA, you can enter LDID in response to SDDR. Use your DMI, then enter the DID numbers (or range) you want to keep on switch.

Thanks martin777.


so if i wanted to do that after i create lets say DMI 14, i would go to LD 90 and create a new entry or does this info go into an existing entry?
like if i did a change it would be:
REQ CHG
CUST 0
FEAT NET
TRAN AC1
TYPE NPA This is where i draw a blank. most of the numbers I see here are area codes. Would I have to make new entries to define my DID ranges (ie 2= 2000-2999, 3=3000-3999 and so on)?

I have not done too much work in this LD with the exception of adding new area codes and changing RLI info for when LD services have been changed and such.

or would the change be made to the one NPA entry for the local area code that my DID's fall under (makes a little more sense to me know that I am thinking about it)?
Would this require an entry like 1847xxx2 (xxxx=prefix) which would cover my DID range of 2000-2999?

I can imagine a change not this specific could affect dialing to the entire 847 range from the switch if it were not like this.

ok i think i see where the change would be made. I had to look at the book to see the exact order the changes would be made in(can you smell the smoke from me thinking for a change?).
so by entering in LDID at SDRR i would then get the prompt of which DMI to use, where i would enter my new DMI and then what range to apply it to ie 2 to cover 2000-2999. This would only affect the range I enter?

Man i love this group!

one question? would creating a new DMI with instructions to delete 7 numbers be enough if someone were dialing 918471234567 for the switch to recognize it as a 4 digit DN? wouldnt deleteing 7 leave it as a 5 digit DN or would the 9 not be counted?

Unless Nortel has a new Feature I haven't seen yet, you can't dial a DID number on your own switch using 9-NPA-NXX-XXXX and have the system delete every thing except the EXT number and ring the phone on the on the switch without going out of the system first.

klowndog, no the 9 does not get counted. So a DMI to delete 7 should be what you need for 4 digit extensions on the switch.
