BCM50 r3 - Long Distance access code

[faja69]

Hi -

I'm new to the BCM and was wondering if it is possible to configure the unit to require a PIN code "after" a long distance number has been entered (local and toll free calls should not require a PIN). I am trying to do this for one line that is assigned to a kitchen phone (T7100) in a restaurant. I'm trying to prevent unauthorized long distance calls from that phone.

The only thing I've found so far is to setup a local access code that must be entered "before" ANY calls (LD and local) can be made. I checked with AT&T (LD provider) and they don't offer anything that will "block" LD calls so I'm hoping this can be accomplished in the BCM.

TIA,
Faja -

Yes. Check programming guide for COS (Class of Service).

Thanks Dasheen! I've setup CoS on the line and was able to get what I needed done.

Do you know of a way to get the password prompt AFTER entering the phone number with say a stutter dial tone? I've used other systems (Avaya and Inter-Tel I think) that work this way. I'm going to have a hard time getting the kitchen staff used to pushing F68 and then a CoS password. Maybe I can reprogam the single button on the phone (T7100) to F68 instead of last number.

From the looks of the manual, I suspect my setup request is not going to be an option but I thought I would ask anyway.

Can't have stutter dial tone after unless you ask your Telco to restrict the lines and build up Long distance codes at their end.

Using the Funct 68 is the only way, sorry about that
