Restricting internal numbers

[jschnarkey]

Hello all,
I would like to know if I can restrict about half of my extensions from being able to dial my over head page code of 720.
This is station paging. 720 is a DNIT that translates to extension 55555.

Thank you.

Yes (Of course)

You can use the AMO VBZ for this purpose.

First REG it to see what is there in case you need to go back:
REG-VBZ;

Then add in Group 15 as the group that is allowed to dial the paging.


CHANGE-VBZ:0&&15,AX,0&&15,;
CHANGE-VBZ:0,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:1,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:2,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:3,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:4,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:5,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:6,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:7,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:8,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:9,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:10,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:11,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:12,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:13,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:14,DX,15,Y;
CHANGE-VBZ:15,DX,0&1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8&9&10&11&12&13&14,Y;

To see this
DIS-VBZ;

You will see that SOURCE group 15 is the only group that is able to dial DESTINATION group 15 (with letter A for Allowed)

To add extensions to group 15
CHA-SBCSU:STNO=XXX,ITR=15;
CHA-SCSU:STNO=XXX,ITR=15;

You need to put the paging extension into ITR 15 as well.

CHA-SCSU:STNO=55555,ITR=15;

Test it out !

Sounds good. It looks like I can substitute 1 for 15 and then anyone in source group 1 may go over head while my source groups 17 and 21 cannot. That's exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you sir.

 

[sbcsu]

Yes, that is what I did (substitute 1 for 15 on other sites) but I think the example of 15 shows better (being far away from 0 !)
Give it a try and see how you get on.

I think this is also called on other systems - multiple tenancies - whereby you can setup different groups for different businesses within the same system. They are isolated from each other.

 

[sbcsu]

Also - Everyone is in ITR Group 0 by default.
There are 16 groups 0 && 15

Thank you sbcsu. I have been playing with this and it would not work by putting the operators 4 phones into ITR 15 and the paging extension into ITR 15 because at that point, nobody could call the operators at the hospital , lol.
I ended up putting the paging extension 55555 into ITR 5 and denying access to it to ITR 0 (everybody) and then putting the 4 operators into ITR 15 and giving them access to the paging. This way everyone can still call ITR 15 and get ahold of the operators.
I will play with it a bit more while my imagination runs with other uses.

Jschnarkey.

If you put the paging device into ITR (Internal Traffic Restriction) Group 1
and the allowed callers into 15
and use the REGEN from above it should work

Non allowed/blocked users are in ITR 0

I have done this same thing in the past for a couple of different reasons, one being paging as here, and the other to allow control of my patient phones in an emergency. I have relaxed it quite a bit since then - I used to have each building in its own ITR group, and then I could restrict paging in a building to just that building, but now I just use a block of non-DID numbers like 83x, so my page codes can be 831, 832, 833, etc and i just make an LDPLN entry that restricts dialing those digits to someone who is assigned to the LCRCOSV that has those permissions. Now I have ITR 0 for staff, and ITR 1 for patient rooms and public areas. If there would be an emergency/disaster I can then restrict the patient phones from calling the staff phones, or similar things, until the event is over.

Thanks guys, a huge help indeed. I have it labbed out perfectly at my desk with multiple phones and will implement after running it by my change management board.
donb01, I have three hospitals in S. Oregon all a mix of 4K and OSV and one main switchboard. Paging is still on the old Fujitsu and is the last item to move to the 4K. This was bugging me but this works very well now and there is room in the matrix to add another page code or two. Osv done through the local numbering plan PAC's, no big deal there.
