Routing outgoing calls
179Understanding ARS analysis
8
IXC numbers begin with 1010, followed by three digits, plus the number as it is
normally dialed including 0, 00, or 1+ 10 digits. These numbers are set up on your
default translations.
Remember, the user dials 9 to access ARS, then the rest of the number.
Instructions
To see how your switch handles a call to an IXC:
1. Type
display ars analysis 1 and press ENTER.
The AAR and ARS Digit Analysis Table
screen starting with 1 appears.
This table shows 5 translations for IXC calls.
When you use x in the Dialed String field, the switch recognizes x as a wildcard.
The x represents any digit, 0 - 9. If I dial 1010, the next 3 digits will always match
the x wild cards in the dialed string.
Use the ARS digit analysis table shown above and follow the routing for an IXC
call to AT&T. 1010288 is the carrier access code for AT&T.
— A user dials 9 1010288 plus a public network number.
— The switch drops the ARS FAC (9 in our example), looks at the ARS Digit
Analysis Table for 1010, and analyzes the number.
— The switch matches 288 with xxx and sends the call over route pattern 5.
Restricted area codes and prefixes
Certain area code numbers are set aside in the North American Numbering Plan.
These numbers are 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 877, 888, 900. You need to
specifically deny calls made to area codes 200 through 900 (except 800 and 888).
