When the system is first installed, people can use their voice terminals to
place intercom, local, and toll calls. However, the system administrator can
assign either of two types of call restrictions for selected voice terminals:
Outward Call Restriction restricts voice terminals so that only
intercom calls can be placed.
Toll Call Restriction restricts voice terminals so that only intercom
and local calls can be placed.
Even if a voice terminal has Outward Call Restriction, the person can bridge
onto calls in progress, answer incoming calls, and place and receive intercom
calls.
If the outward call restrictions are too limiting, the administrator can
designate a list of numbers that individuals may call beyond the established
restrictions. (See "Allowed Lists.")
