917 System Parameters Call Coverage / Call Forwarding 
17
When the system redirects a call off-net at the final coverage point in a coverage 
path, the system can apply no further coverage treatment even if the call is 
unanswered. The only reason for activating answer detection on such a call is to 
maintain the simulated bridged appearance (SBA) on the principal’s phone that 
allows the principal to answer or bridge onto the call. However, when the system 
monitors the call through use of a call classifier port, there is an inherent 
cut-through delay following the detection of answer at the far end. This field has 
no consequence when the off-net call is carried end-to-end by ISDN facilities; the 
SBA is maintained and there is no cut-through delay.
Ignore Network Answer Supervision
This field appears only if the Coverage of Calls Redirected Off-Net Enabled field 
on this screen is 
y.
CCRON may use a call classifier port to determine whether an off-net coverage or 
forwarded call has been answered, discarding other information that may indicate 
an answered state. However, some customers pay the operating company to 
provide network answer supervision on their trunks and desire that CCRON not 
discard that information. They may preserve this service by setting this field to 
n.
On the other hand, beware when you tandem a call over a tie trunk through 
another switch node from where it redirects to the public network over non-ISDN 
facilities. If the trunk on the far-end node sends a timed answer supervision, that 
may get tandemed back to the originating switch as a network answer. In such a 
scenario, the originating switch interprets the call as answered, leading to some 
undesirable behavior. To avoid these calls from mistakenly be treated as answered, 
set this field to 
y. An unfortunate consequence is that a short cut-through delay 
that is inherent to call classification is introduced when the call is answered. 
Valid entries Usage
y
Directs the system to maintain a simulated bridged appearance 
on the principal when redirecting to a final off-net coverage 
point.
nAllows the system to drop the SBA on the principal’s phone 
when the call redirects off-net at the last coverage point, 
eliminating the cut-through delay inherent in CCRON calls, 
but sacrificing the principal’s ability to answer the call.
Valid entries Usage
y
Ignore network answer supervision and rely on the call 
classifier to determine when a call is answered.
nTreat network answer supervision as a true answer.

Disable call classifier for CCRON over ISDN 
trunks
When a CCRON call routes offnet over ISDN end-to-end facilities, no call 
classifier is attached to the call. If, subsequently during the call, an ISDN 
PROGRESS or ALERT message is received that indicates that interworking has 
occurred, a call classifier is normally attached to the call and assumes precedences 
over ISDN trunk signalling. This field provides a customer the means of directing 
the switch to dispense with the call classifier on interworked calls and rely on the 
ISDN trunk signalling messages.
System Parameters Country-Options
This screen implements parameters associated with certain international 
(including North American) call characteristics. You cannot change this screen.
