Usage
Automatic Alternate Routing — Used to route calls within your company over your
own private network. In order to use this code in your dial plan , the ARS/AAR
Dialing without FAC feature must be enabled on the System Parameters Customer
Options screen. (Contact your Avaya representative to discuss the ARS/AAR
Dialing Without FAC feature before enabling it.) When dialing digits of Call Type
aar, as soon as the dialed digits have reached the administered length, the digits are
treated as if an AAR feature access code (FAC) was dialed. Control is transferred
and the digits are routed according to the AAR Analysis and Digit Conversion
forms.
In the example shown in <Link>Screen 161 on page 769, extensions of 3xxx cannot
be dialed directly. Whenever a user dials the first digit of 3, the system immediately
interprets the dialed string as an AAR string and transfers control to AAR.
Extensions of 3xxx can only be accessed using AAR Digit Conversion. That is, you
must dial a longer AAR number from which AAR Digit Conversion deletes leading
digits to form a number of the form 3xxx.
Automatic Route Selection — Used to route calls that go outside your company over
public networks. ARS is also used to route calls to remote company locations if you
do not have a private network. In order to use this code in your dial plan , the
ARS/AAR Dialing without FAC feature must be enabled on the System Parameters
Customer Options screen. (Contact your Avaya representative to discuss the
ARS/AAR Dialing Without FAC feature before enabling it.)
When dialing digits of Call Type ars, as soon as the dialed digits have reached the
administered length, the digits are treated as if an ARS feature access code (FAC)
was dialed. Control is transferred and the digits are routed according to the ARS
Analysis and Digit Conversion forms.
In the example shown in <Link>Screen 161 on page 769, extensions of 4xxxx
cannot be dialed directly. Whenever a user dials the first digit of 4, the system
immediately interprets the dialed string as an ARS string and transfers control to
ARS.
Extensions of 4xxxx can only be accessed using ARS Digit Conversion. That is, you
must dial a longer ARS number from which ARS Digit Conversion deletes leading
digits to form a number of the form 4xxxx.
Attendant — Defines how users call an attendant. Attendant access numbers can
start with any number from 0 – 9 and contain 1 or 2 digits. If a telephone's COR
restricts the user from originating calls, this user cannot access the attendant using
this code. Beginning with the November 2003 release of Communication Manager
(2.0), you can also administer the attendant access code by entering an appropriate
fac or dac entry on the Dial Plan Analysis screen, and then entering the actual
access code on the Feature Access Codes screen. Location-specific attendant access
codes can be administered on the Locations screen.
