Table 36. Sample Call-by-Call Services Table
Call-by-call service selection closely resembles ARS in reducing costs and
maximizing the benefits derived from limited resources. While ARS selects the
most cost-effective route, call-by-call service selection selects the optimal service
for that particular call. Call-by-call service selection is integrated with ARS by
including the bearer capability of the calling party in its routing decisions. ARS
serves as the main gateway for accessing the call-by-call B-channel group. The
basic calling process for call-by-call service selection with ARS is as follows:
1. A user dials ARS.
2. ARS selects the route and, in this case, the route points to a call-by-call
B-channel group.
3. ARS performs digit deletion/addition operations for the route and, in so
doing, may indirectly specify the best service for the call.
4. With these ARS outgoing digits, the call-by-call B-channel group selects
the service, possibly based on digits added by ARS, and performs digit
deletion as required.
5. A call setup message is sent to the network/central-office switch.
Restriction Code Handling for FTS2000 Network. FTS2000 network users can
have restriction codes applied to their extensions. A person who attempts to place
a call that exceeds the set restriction level must first enter a restriction code. If no
code is entered, the FTS2000 network prompts the user to enter the code from the
telephone dialpad.
Prior to Release 2.0, the restriction codes are input in-band (using touch-tones). In
Release 2.0 and later systems, the system allows a restriction code to be entered
with the Account Code Entry feature. This is especially useful for data calls
because there is no in-band signaling to interfere with the data, since the
restriction code is sent out of band in the setup message.
Station Identification-Automatic Number Identification (SID-ANI) as Calling
Party Number. In Release 1.0 and later systems, facility-based information is
used by the network for sending the Calling Party Number. If the SID-ANI option is
