Inward Calling Restriction

[dblcrona]

On our shop floor we have several phones set up with a COR of 10 which allows only for station to station calling because we have had co-workers on the shop floor abusing phone privileges. Since we shut down the phones to outbound calling, the problem has been with them receiving inbound calls. Is there a way to restrict inbound calling by modifying the COR?

You can either change the COR to show Called Party Restriction set to 'Public' or you can change the COR to restrict access to the Trunk Group on page 2 or 3. The second option assumes that the trunks have their own CORs that are not shared with stations.

Actually I figured out a good way to do this on an individual station basis. I created a coverage path that sends only outside calls to a system announcement that says "you have reached an unassigned telephone number.......". Calls from another station will just keep ringing.
