blocking incoming call from dialing an extension 1

I'm having the same issue as in the above thread. I really like the idea of using COR to block anyone from dialing the paging extension but I can't get it to work. I did like was suggested in the above thread. I assigned a COR to the paging station and then went to the COR of the trunk group and set the grant permission to n for the paging station cor but I was still able to call the paging extension when I tested it. Is there something I'm missing? I'm on CM 5.1

You'd really want to assign the blocked COR to the VDN or other object that is able to dial the extension.

Unless you assigned a DID number as the paging extension. (You didn't do THAT did you?)

Carpe dialem! (Seize the line!)

No it's not a DID. The problem is when someone dials into our 800 # they can dial the paging extension and I want to disable that. So I should be able to say that if COR 1 is assigned to the 800# trunk and COR 2 is assigned to the paging extension, I should put on the calling permission page, on COR 1, N on 2 right? I did this and I was still able to call into our 800# and not dial the paging system extension. I verified that I was coming in on the correct trunk group via list trace sta.

I would assign the COR that you are blocking from calling your paging extension to the VDN of the 800 number.

The call acquires the COR of the last system object with a COR that it touches.
