Dialing a Tele-
phone Number
or Numerical
Alias
This section assumes that the Mediatrix 1104 is configured to do SCN
emulation. The Mediatrix 1104 could be configured to do any other kind
of emulation, thus its users would simply have to dial as if they were
using their old system.
X To dial a Standard Call:
1. Dial the telephone number as if you were using a standard
telephone, with country code and area code when required.
Examples:
8298749
15145701234
A Standard Call uses the server to contact the remote dialed
user. The server takes the decision as to redirect the call on
the SCN or to keep it on the network. Keeping the call on the
network takes precedence over redirecting it on the SCN. If
the call needs to go on the SCN, the server redirects it to a
proper analog gateway (such as the Mediatrix 1204) that will
place the call to the SCN network.
X To dial a Forced SCN call:
1. Dial “**”.
2. Dial the telephone number as if you were using a standard
telephone, with country code and area code when required.
Examples:
**8298749
**15145701234
A Forced SCN Call allows you to specify that the user you
want to reach is located on the SCN network. This leaves no
decisions to the server; it must find a proper gateway and
place the call on the SCN. This option can be useful only
when a SCN number is shadowed by a network number.
Note: You can dial one star numbers *xx (such as *69). These
numbers are automatically inserted in the Request-URL of the SIP
INVITE request.
Note: A forced SCN call is only be possible if an analog gateway
such as the Mediatrix 1204 is available on the IP network.
