ONN Blocking on PRI 2

[oldestgeek]

On a BCM400 4.0, with a PRI do I have to be sending the caller ID before I can use ONN blocking? Currently I haven't configured the public OLI and I'm letting our carrier send the info but ONN blocking isn't working.

My expierence required an entry in the OLI field, to allow ONN Blocking. btw, it's on a per call basis.

And you have to ask your Telco to not send anything.Most of the time if you don't send any OLI,your Telco will still send the billing number(ex:Bell)which interfere with your ONN Blocking feature. You block the number but they still send the billing number.

OK - I'll program our main number into the public OLI field and ask the telco not send anything. I see that I can make an entry in the ONN blocking box but the documentation seems to indicate that is for analog lines. With PRI, do I need to put anything in that box?

 

[gberger]

No, no need to put anything on a PRI.

Worked like a charm so have a star, both of you. BTW, I didn't even need to ask my carrier to change anything. I just entered the public OLI data for each set and the ONN blocking started working.
