Features
Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
In order to know the available options of Multiline Hunt Group and to set it up
correctly, you must find out what type of switch your CO uses.
For the different switches, Multiline Hunt Group has the following capabilities:
5ESS®. Multiline Hunt is available for voice-only and digital data-only
applications. Multiline Hunt capability is provided under a switch feature
called Series Completion . Do not use the 5ESS feature named Multiline
Hunt Group . For alternate voice and digital data applications, special CO
features, for example, call forwarding, are also required in the line
provisioning. As a result, this configuration may not be supported by some
of the RBOCs (Regional Bell Operating Companies) or other local carriers.
DMS-100. Multiline Hunt is available for voice-only, digital data-only, and
alternate voice and digital data applications.
EWSD. Multiline Hunt capability is provided under a switch feature called
Series Completion . However, it is limited to six DSLs (Digital Subscriber
Lines) in a group, and may not be supported by some central offices. Do
not use the EWSD feature named Multiline Hunt Group . Multiline Hunt is
available for voice-only and digital data-only applications. Alternate voice
and digital data applications are not supported.
Called Party Number (CdPN)
In general, the term Called Party Number (CdPN) denotes a telephone number
that has been dialed to reach a destination. However, while routing the call, the
network can change the Called Party Number to make routing easier. In either
case, the network sends the Called Party Number to the system when a call
arrives at the system. The called party number is usually displayed on the second
page of the MLX display.
Calling Party Number (CPN)
The Calling Party Number (CPN) provides incoming calling party number
information that identifies the originator of a call in the call-handling displays of
MLX telephones. If the owner of the MERLIN LEGEND Communications System
subscribes to this BRI feature, each incoming call to the system over a BRI line
can be accompanied by the CPN or by the billing number of the calling party
supplied by the network.
NOTE:
If the calling party subscribes to the central office Directory Number Privacy
feature, no number is received.
NOTE:
Multiline Hunt is not part of the IOC package S. If Multiline Hunt is
needed, you must order the appropriate feature and inform the
central office of the switch settings (see Appendix H of System
Planning ) that you need.
