Considerations and Constraints 3
In Hybrid/PBX mode, an outward-restricted extension can receive a PSTN call or
can make or receive a private network call (Release 6.0 or later systems) but
cannot be used to make an ARS call, except to emergency numbers. See
“Allowed/Disallowed Lists” on page 36
for additional information.
Only outgoing calls are affected; users can receive inside, local, and toll calls on
restricted extensions and can join any type of call in progress.
When a user with an outward-restricted extension presses the dialpad while on a
call, the call is disconnected, the user hears a fast busy signal, and the line/trunk
is released. The system assumes that the user is trying to make an outside call,
which is not allowed because of the outward restriction assigned to the extension.
Users with Pool buttons on their telephones can use the pool even if the pool
dial-out restriction is assigned to the extension.
Outward and toll restriction do not work with tie trunks or with T1 lines emulating
tie trunks that are set to tie-PBX. ARS or pool dial-out codes should be used to
restrict these types of line/trunks.
Because calling restrictions apply to extensions used to initiate a transfer to an
outside number, a user with a restricted extension can circumvent restrictions by
asking an operator with an unrestricted console to connect an outside call.
When a marked System Speed Dial code is used to dial a number, the System
Speed Dial number overrides calling restrictions (such as outward or toll
restrictions).
SECURITYlALERT:
!
The use of loop-start lines without reliable disconnect may result in toll
fraud.
If Centrex service is used, any calling restrictions for the extension must be
programmed by the telephone company at the central office.
Mode Differences 3
Hybrid/PBX Mode 3
In Hybrid/PBX mode, all calling restrictions can be assigned.
Key and Behind Switch Modes 3
In Key and Behind Switch modes, outward and toll restrictions can be assigned,
while pool dial-out code restrictions and ARS FRL cannot be assigned.
