11.2Poll Restriction Example 2In this example, assume that you have assigned the following restriction levels and exception numbers to 
thefollowing people in a company: Keep in mind that you assign restriction level to stations by programming the
class of service with a particular restriction level while you assign exception numbers to individual stations
through station programming.
StationRestriction LevelException Number
President
8NONE
Executive
7NONE
Manager6NONE
Joe in sales
15Sally in sales
156Also, assume that you have programmed the following outside numbers, restriction levels and exception numbers
into the toll restriction table:
NumberRestriction Level
Exceotion Number:
121275
1213@@@@@@@ 66978
2NONE
911ALWAYS ALLOW NONE
A toll restriction arrangement such as this example permits the following dialing conditions:
the president and the executivecan dial all numbers,
the executive can dial any 1-212 prefixed number, any 1-213 prefixed number (remember, 
@ = match any digit),
978 numbers, and 911 (any numbers with restriction level equal to or less than 
7),the manager can dial any 1-213 prefixed numbers, 978 numbers and 911 (any numbers with restriction levels
equal to or less than 
6),Joe (in sales) can dial 911 (via his restriction level) plus dial any 1-212 numbers through his exception number,
Sally (in sales) can dial 911 (via her restriction level) plus dial any 1-212 and 1-213 numbers through her
exception numbers.
(Remember, exception numbers allow Joe and Sally to dial numbers that are denied to them through their
restriction levels.)

							11.4Restriction Level ProgrammingDescription:Group the system stations into as many as eight different toll calling categories based on the
freedom to dial various numbers or the restriction from dialing them. Assign one of eight
different restriction (1-8) levels or assign an “allow all” level or a “deny all” level. Level 8 is
the least restrictive from a station viewpoint but the most restrictive from a restriction table
viewpoint. (For example, a station with a restriction of 8 is only restricted from dialing “always
deny” numbers and it can dial numbers with restriction levels of l-8. A station with a restriction
level of l-7 cannot dial a number with a toll restriction table entry of 8.) The “allow all” entry
ensures that the system applies no dialing restriction to a number (example: 9 11). The “deny
all” ensures that a station user can never dial a number (example: l-900).
You actually assign a restriction level to a station by first assigning it to a station class of
service and then assigning that class of service to the station. As previously described, the class
of service assignment provides features and service that matches the needs of a specific
category of stations. Program the restriction level value that accurately reflects the toll
restriction dialing freedom expected by a specific category of stations.
Programming:Create eight station categories, and order these categories from those with the most dialing
freedom to those with the least and then note the station ports that you plan to each category.
Arrange the toll restriction numbers into these categories so that they correspond to the required
dialing freedoms. Assign restriction level numbers to each category. Also, list those numbers
that every station must be allowed to dial (such as 911) as “always allow” and list those
numbers that should never be dialed, (such as l-900) as “always deny”.

11.6Restricted Numbers Programming
Description:Program restricted numbers as entries in the toll restriction table. The system will accept up to
400 entries.Each restricted number can be up to 16 digits long and can be comprised of the
digits O-9 
Plus the “match any” digit (@) if needed.
If you program the system to include the automatic route selection (ARS) feature, always fill
out the restricted numbers with the 
@ digit as shown in the following examples:for 
l+dialing, enter l@@@@@@@@@@,
for local dialing, enter 
@ @ @ @ @ @ @,
for l+ 7-digit dialing, enter valid exchanges and the @ digit--either enter 1555 @ @ @ @ or enter
555 
@ @ @ @ with the 1 added by the ARS modify digit table.
When you make this arrangement, you ensure that ARS will wait until the user dials all the
number’s digits before it determines if all routes are busy. This eliminates the possibility of the
user accidentally dialing an intercom number or a feature code.
You can enter a pause at the end of a restricted number’s digit string to indicate that dialing is
complete. Do this by typing a P or 
p after you type the digit string. The pause entry
distinguishes this restricted number as unique. You can enter the same digits without the pause
but instead followed by additional digits as another unique number. You can assign different
routing and toll restriction parameters to each of these entries. There are several applications for
this feature. One application is in international dialing where different toll restriction parameters
apply depending upon whether the caller dialed 0 or 011. In this case, you can enter 0 
pause to
access local lines and 01 to access international lines. Another application is with tie line calling
where a remote extension is the same digits as an office or area code that you need to enter in
the restriction table. By entering nnn 
pause for tie line access and nnn@ for CO line access, the
system can route the call over the proper line. A third application is brought forth with the
advent of the new North American Numbering Plan 
(NANP). With NANP, an area code may be
the same digits as a local office code. You can enter 
nnn@ @ @ @ pause for local line access
and nnn 
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ for long distance line access. In any application, the system resets its
pause timer after receiving each caller dialed digit. If the timer expires before the caller dials
another digit, the system routes the call based on the digits preceding the 
pause. If, instead, the
system detects more digits instead of a 
pause, it routes the call based on the entire digit string.
You can enable the pause entry ability using the Section 6.10.5 programming procedure;
however, the following Section 
11.6.1 procedure for entering the restriction number digits also
includes the pause enabling procedure.

11.7Exception Number ProgrammingDescription:
Exception numbers allow stations to dial numbers that are not normally allowed by their
restriction levels. When a user dials a number at his or her station, the toll restriction feature
compares it to the toll restriction numbers, the toll groups, the restriction level, and to the
exception number. If it makes a match, the station is not normally allowed to dial the number.
However, if the exception number of the toll restriction table line entry matches one of the
exception numbers assigned to the station, the station is allowed to dial the number. The
exception number values that you can assign are 1 through 32 and NONE. You can assign 32
exception numbers to each station. You can assign one exception number to each toll restriction
table line entry. The feature provide you with separate line entries expressly for the purpose of
specifying special dialing exceptions.Programming:

							Automatic route selection (ARS) permits the system to select the least costly line group that is available to a
station for outgoing call routing. The system modifies the dialed number, if needed, to match the selected line
group. Additionally, ARS provides the costing information for the dialed call that is reported by the station
message detail accounting feature. ARS makes its routing decisions (which lines to route a call over, when and
how to modify a number, and costing information) based entirely upon the programming of the system.
NOTE: When the ARS feature is active, never program a direct line appearance to a station.If
a station user selects a line directly at his or her station, the system will not route the
call using the ARS feature.
For an overview of automatic route selection, refer to Section 12. I .

12.2ARS EnableDescription:
You can enable or disable automatic route selection on a system-wide basis. A defaulted
system has ARS disabled.Programming:
1~ Press CONTROL T for main menu.
2. From main menu, select system and press ENTER.
3. From the system menu, select system parameters and press ENTER.
4. From the system parameters menu, select ARS feature and press ENTER.
5. Press SPACE BAR to toggle between enable and disable.
6. Press ESCAPE twice.
7. Type y to accept changes, n to reject them, or r to resume editing and press ENTER to end.
12.3Line Groups for ARSDescription:
Before automatic route selection can operate, you must group similar lines together into line
groups. The system can have a total of 16 line groups with unlimited lines in each group.
Be sure that you program similar line types together into the same line groups to take advantage
of the efficiency and cost savings associated with automatic route selection. Some examples of
lines that have similar characteristics and should be grouped together into line groups are as
listed below:
- outgoing WATS lines to a particular area,
- FX lines to a frequently called area,
- similar AT&T long distance lines,
- similar MCI lines,
A line group can consist of only one line, (for example, if only one FX line exists, put it into a
separate line group). Doing this allows the ARS feature to route calls over that group (FX line)
for any calls to the FX line area.NOTE: To prevent system users from accessing non-ARS line groups, use the Section 6.12
procedure to clear the dialing codes for all non-ARS line groups.
Programming:
1.Press CONTROL T for main menu.
2.From main menu, select lines and press ENTER.
3.From the lines menu, select line group programming and press ENTER.
