Assigning Outgoing Call Restriction

Use this procedure to restrict all extensions associated with the voice messaging system from making outside calls. Outgoing Call Restriction is strongly recommended, in particular, to protect system security when Outcalling privileges are assigned to subscribers.

For PARTNER ACS Release 4.0 or later, refer to Form F5.


Notes:

If Outcalling is permitted, be sure to create and assign Allowed and Disallowed Phone Numbers Lists to the Outcalling ports. (The Outcalling ports are Port 2 on a 2-port system, Port 4 on a 4-port system, and Ports 5 and 6 on a 6-port system.) See Disallowed Phone Numbers and Allowed Phone Numbers for instructions.

  • If Centrex Transfer will be assigned for Automated Attendants, all PARTNER Messaging port extensions must have Allowed Phone Numbers Lists assigned to them that will permit the transfer to the Centrex Transfer destination phone number.
  • If www.messenger for PARTNER Messaging will be used, and the phone numbers designated by users during login will be external phone numbers, then all PARTNER Messaging port extensions must have Allowed Phone Numbers Lists assigned to them that will permit the voice messaging system to dial those external phone numbers.
