How do I Enabling International Calls? 1

[m0zart01]

Is there a special place to enable these?

I was looking at the COS COR?

Thanks for any help.

Typically it's defined in the ARS Analysis tables and the Route Patterns. Add the international code(s) by doing 'change ars ana 011'. Define the minimum and maximum number of digits in an international phone number. Send international calls to a new route pattern. Within the Route Pattern define the FRL required to use the trunk groups, usually an FRL of 6 or 7. Do not send a '1' to the network.

What I should say...

How do I allow a phone on my switch to make international calls?

Thanks for the info.
This is what I have in place.

Dialed String Min MAX Route Call Type

011 10 18 6 intl



So when I look at route pattern 6, I don't see anything that addresses int'l calling.

4merAvaya :

What do you mean when you said
"Do not send a '1' to the network

 

[4merAvaya]

In the Route Pattern you have the capability to determine when the Definity will send a digit '1' prefix to the network. For example, in the US you want to always prefix the area code 800 with a '1' to senf 1800 to the network. For International calls you don't want to send a '1'.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for all the help.

Here is what I found out...

011 is set to enabled in the ARS as listed in the earlier post. It is assigned route pattern 6

route pattern 6 has FRL of 6
I set my phone to COR 7, dialed the number and it gave the error:

denial event 1166: ISDN unassigned number

But in another thread here I found the listing for the U.S. Embassy in the UK. I called it and it worked. So I am starting to think the original number I have been testing is invalid...

I am going to test a few more calls. Can you think of anything else I have to verify?

Just a thought but not all international prefixes are 011. Maybe your other number started with 00 or 001. Also, the default on my ars for intl was set to min 10 max 23. I have never come across a 23 digit number but they may exist. I found a great web site that gives intl prefixes if your interested this is great if you want to deny prefixes also.....
