Release 3.1 Enhancements
Outward restrictions for VMI ports by default
Beginning with Release 3.1, 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 should be allowed to
call out (for example, to send calls to a user's home office), the system
manager must remove these restrictions.
Before removing restrictions, it is strongly recommended that you read
"Appendix A: Customer Support Information."
New default Facility Restriction Level (FRL) for VMI ports
Beginning with Release 3.1, the default FRL for VMI ports has changed
to 0, restricting all outcalling.
New default for the Default Local Route Table
Beginning with Release 3.1, the default FRL has changed to 2 for the
Default Local Route Table. Now, 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 trunk problems
A password is now required for technicians to perform trunk tests.
The enhancements in Release 3.1 help increase the security of the
MERLIN LEGEND System. To fully utilize these security enhancements,
be sure to read and understand the information in these upgrade notes.
