Page xxxviRelease 3.1 Enhancements (March, 1996)
Default Pool Dial-Out Code
Restriction for All Extensions 0
The default setting for the pool dial-out code restriction (Hybrid/PBX mode only) is
restricted. No extension or remote access user with a barrier code has access to
pools until the restriction is removed by the system manager.
Default Outward Restrictions for VMI Ports 0
Ports assigned for use by voice messaging systems (generic or integrated VMI
ports) are now assigned outward restrictions by default. If a voice messaging
system must be allowed to call out (for example, to send calls to a user’s home
office), the system manager must remove these restrictions.
SECURITYlALERT:
!
Before removing restrictions, it is strongly recommended that you read
Appendix A, “Customer Support Information.”
Default Facility Restriction
Level (FRL) for VMI Ports 0
The default Automatic Route Selection (ARS) FRL for VMI ports is 0, restricting all
outcalling.
Default for the Default Local Table 0
The default Automatic Route Selection (Hybrid/PBX mode only) FRL has changed
to 2 for the Default Local table. System managers can easily change an extension
default of 3 to 2 or lower in order to restrict calling. No adjustment to the route FRL
is required.
New Maintenance Procedure for
Testing Outgoing Trunks 0
Technicians must enter a password in order to perform trunk tests.
