962 Matrix ETERNITY NE System Manual
Logical Partition
Logical Partitioning is used to restrict the flow of call traffic between PSTN and Private Networks as well as
between PSTN and VoIP networks.
This feature may be used in countries where such restrictions are mandated by telecom regulations. For example,
in certain countries, calls from VoIP to Public Networks (PSTN, Public Land Mobile Network) are not allowed.
Thus, local telecom regulations may either disallow termination of lines from both networks on the same equipment
or may allow lines from both networks to be terminated on the same equipment, provided the equipment is
designed to restrict flow of call traffic from these networks. For example, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India
allows termination of lines from the PSTN and VoIP Networks in the same equipment, only if these lines are
logically partitioned. Termination of lines from both these networks in the same equipment without a logical partition
is a legal offence. SARVAM UCS supports Logical Partitioning for this purpose.
Matrix recommends you to enable the logical partition in order to avoid any toll bypass wherever
necessary. Matrix will not be responsible in case of any discrepancy arising related to this.
How it works
Logical Partition is applied on the Trunk ports. You can change the calling permission, that is, whether to 'allow' or
'restrict' the calls between different trunks, depending on the regulations prevalent in your country.
Depending on the calling permission programmed between the trunks, the system will allow or deny the calls on the
trunks.
To remove the logical partition for local SIP Extensions within office premises, that is, to allow calls between Internal
Extension (SLT, Local SIP Extension and Remote Extension) and External Trunks, you can configure the table
defining the IP address range of those local SIP Extensions. These local SIP Extensions will be considered similar
to the PBX extensions such as SLT.
The SIP Extensions other than those configured in the table will be considered as External/Remote SIP Extensions.
Though Remote SIP Extensions can make internal calls to the SLT/Local SIP Extensions, but Logical Partition will
be applied for the external SIP Extension calls and trunk calls.
