BCM 400 - Porting POTS to PRI

[SNSSMIS]

When porting POTS to a new PRI do you only need to port over the Main Pilot number and request a max number of paths or port over all lines in rotary hunt too.
My vendor does not know if the BCM can control the number of calls to the pilot number using the D Channel.
I know that a MITEL SX2000 with ISDN Gatway had complete control of the number of calls that would ring inbound.
Can the BCM Control the number of inbound calls like a MITEL?

You only need to port the main then you can make that target line appear as many times as needed.

only difference is that you cannot dial out from a target line (thats a common resistance from most pots to pri changeovers)

But you can set the OLI to be the Main number. You don't need the other numbers from the POTS lines unless you want DID's.

If your going to have a PRI with DID you only need to port the main number a how many call paths you think you will need. We do it all the time when we move our sites.

I would port all the numbers in the hunt group. When dialing out on analog lines, the caller-id that shows up is of the individual line your calling from, not always the main number. So if any customers have caller-id saved from a call from one of the rollover lines and call it back, you want to be able to get those calls.
