Loads to locate DID digit set up

We are changing our PRI's from Sprint to AT&t. I need to verify how many digits our PBX is set to receive / strip off from the incoming DID's. What load do I use to check for the current set up?

Thanks

digit conversion/DNIS is LD 49. Sprint should easily tell you if they are sending 4 or 7.

the length of your ldn (cdb) determines how many digits you are getting..

if your using 4 digit dn's, and you do not have to go to 49 and set up digit conversion for each did, your usually getting 4.. having a provider send more digits then you need would be a waste of cpu and ram.

ld 49 prt idc, shows conversion if it is needed.. on the route idc yes, the next 2 prompts show the dcno table for day and night operation..

on some of my routes i use idc, my primary did routes i don't.. so if you prt idc you would see several tables. none would indicate the number of digits my did provider is sending

another way to 'see' the digits is ld 80 and trac your phone after a did calls is answered.. if those match the dialed digits, conversion isnot needed

Thanks for all the help. I would have just asked sprint but it is almost inpossible in our area to get an answer from sprint. They use XO to provide our DID's and it takes forever. I used LD 80 and traced an outside call to my extension. It shows the entire 10 digit number. That means 10 digit incoming, correct? Another question, where do I locate all the PRI setting in the PBX Loads. I would like to print the existing options. Where do I look for CPE to Glare?


Thanks again

you might be seeing CLID on your trace.

stat in ld 60 to "see" the T-1s

prt CEQU in ld 22 to see config

I had looked earlier in LD 60. I know I have N12 / ESF / B8ZS. They want to set an option in their equipment on the PRI (Glare - CPE Yields). I do not know what that is.
I did a trad on an existing incoming call to a PRI.
The Dial # shows 3853 ( the did extension that was called)

Called state = 10
calling number 800-xxx-xxxx
called number xxx-xxxx-3853

I tried talking to XO and can not get an answer on digits they are sending. Does any of the trad info on the pri show the actual digits sent by sprint?


Thanks,
CWK
 
make it easy for yourself as suggested. Look in load 49, are all your DID numbers in there being converted? or do you have a few entries that are 4 digit and converted to a diff 4 digits?

Sorry. As an old friend once told me there are many ways to do things on Nortel and each guy has their preference.

Also, enable D channel monitor in 96 and watch what arrives.

 
Just a note - on PRI if route built as DID, does not matter how many digits telco sends. Switch will only use the LDN lenth as JohnPoole mentioned.

 
Okay when I prt ldn data, the ldno is 7008, the pbx will strip off all the incoming digits and leave four? All the other LDN's are blank.

CWK
 
the pbx only looks at the 1st 4 digits.. so if they are working, that's all the provider is sending

The PBX only looks at the ist 4 digits? Is this because the LDN0 is only 4 digits? So if they sent me 7 digits as such as 222-3803. The PBX would look at that as 2223? I just want to get this straight in my "fat" head.

Thanks agian,
CWK
 
If number sent is 555-222-3803
Route is defined as DID
LDN = 7008

Switch will look at Last 4 digits = 3803

If number sent is 555-222-3803
Route is defined as Tie
LDN = 7008

Switch will look for a match on all digits starting with 5552
 
Thanks to everyone who responded. I got my answers and learned some things. This is a great site.
