Disable Call Forward Remotely
Disable Call Forward Remotely
(OP)
Is there anyway to remotely disable a telephone that has call forward on through the switch. When I do status station xxx I see that it has the call forward on but in the change stat xxx does not or maybe I missed it doesn't have the option to disable the call forward. Is it possible to disable it remotely through the switch. I would think it is but just dont know where.
Thanks for any advice.....

RE: Disable Call Forward Remotely
My question is I want to do it remotely somehow from one plant to another plant or division. I have remote access to the other plants switch through dial up. Now I cannot I dont think use the FAC to do it remotely from one plant to another that only works internally. Any other suggestions or idea on how to disable it from different locations and not internally.
Thanks.....

Since we are talking about being connected subject, how can I go abouts to connecting my switch to the other remote switch. Right now I use a regular modem to dial into the switch. If anyone can show me how I would really appreciate it. I do have a 8400B modem. Would I need to connect one to the current switch and another one to the other switch to connect to it. Thanks.....

And that's a good question. All of my switches are connected via T1's, but I have never really asked what it would take to connect two switches on a smaller, less expensive scale. Now, I know that you have had to purchase the type of switch that can be 'networked' and that does not mean in a data sense, but rather switch-to-switch. I would definitely check with your AE to make sure that your systems have the capability. If so, your AE will probably refer you to a Design Specialist to discuss your options.

Here's how I would take it a step further to allow you to control this remotely with a lesser chance of toll-fraud.
Set up the remote access port extension in the REMOTE PBX as described above, but make the extension NON-Direct-Dial, instead.
Create a DID VDN which will use a vector script with NO Ringback or Hold Music and which will require digit collection following a null (empty) announcement.
This DID VDN (in the Remote PBX) will eventually route to the Non-DID Remote Access Port.
Let the digit string itself be separate from the barrier code(s) and authorization code(s) and be listed within a Vector Routing table (cha vrt n, n=1,2,3...).
Now, once you dial the DID VDN extension, you WON'T hear dial tone (for the barrier code) until AFTER you enter both the initial digit string (from the vector routing table) and the authorization code (which precedes the barrier code).
This just adds another level of toll-fraud protection by requiring a third password of sorts.

It's not the perfect solution, but it's the quickest way if you haven't set up anything like the things above.

Busy station and release station does not remove any call forwarding . Remote access is the only way to go and there is so many other options you can preform with this .
Enjoy
