Specify subscriber preferences

This step is mandatory.

Enter the following information.


Parameter

Description
Number Validation and routing attributes Attributes used to determine how a call made by the subscriber is routed to the network. Choose Use default or, if required, select one or more of the following values:
  • Pre-paid / off-switch calling card subscriber
    The subscriber uses a pre-paid or off-switch calling card service. The NE must check with an external pre-paid billing platform before routing the call, to ensure that the subscriber is permitted to make this type of call (local, long-distance, international etc.)
  • Fax / modem subscriber
    The subscriber can make fax or modem calls (for which compression should not be used) in addition to standard voice calls. This attribute is typically used to route calls for this subscriber over TDM trunks in preference to SIP trunks.
  • Nomadic subscriber
    This attribute can be used to provide additional routing control not covered by the other attributes.
Service suspended Specifies whether service for this subscriber is currently suspended (the subscriber is prevented from making or receiving calls). This field appears only if Number status is set to Normal, Ported to, or Non-geographic. Choose Use default to use the setting from the parent Business Group, or specify a value:
  • None
    Service is not suspended: the customer can make and receive calls as normal.
  • Incoming calls
    The subscriber is prevented from receiving incoming calls, except that he or she can still receive calls from the operator.
  • Outgoing calls
    The subscriber is prevented from making calls, except that he or she can still make calls to emergency services or to the designated suspended service access number.
  • Incoming and outgoing calls
    The subscriber is prevented from making or receiving any calls, except for calls to emergency services or to the designated suspended service access number.
Timezone Specifies the timezone for this subscriber. Choose Use default or specify a value:
  • Unknown
  • EEST (+2)
  • CET (+1)
  • GMT (+0)
  • WET (-1)
  • GMT-2 (-2)
  • GMT-3 (-3)
  • AST (-4)
  • EST (-5)
  • CST (-6)
  • MST (-7)
  • PST (-8)
  • ALST (-9)
  • HST (-10)
  • SST (-11)
Adjust for Daylight Savings This specifies whether the time for this line should be automatically adjusted for daylight savings time. This moves the subscriber's time forward one hour at 1am (local time) on the last Sunday in March, and back one hour at 1am (local time) on the last Sunday in October. Choose Use default or specify a value:
  • True
  • False
Line Traffic Study Specifies whether this line should have statistics for line traffic usage recorded. Values:
  • True
  • False
Line Class Code 1 - 20 This field appears once for each Line Class Code that you have configured below the Trunk Routing and Policy Services object. The field name for each code appears as LCC n - description (showing the index value in the range 1-20 and the configured description, if any). A Line Class Code is used as a match attribute in number validation and/or routing to provide additional options for routing calls originating from this subscriber. If you need to perform specific routing for this subscriber's calls, set this field to a value used as a match value for the Line Class Code in the appropriate Number Validation Entry or Routing Action. Select Use default, or specify the Line Class Code as an integer value in the range 0 - 2147483646. You cannot select Use default if the corresponding Line Class Code object has Allow inheritance set to False; you will have to specify a value. Alternatively, if one or more valid values have been configured in the Line Class Code object, you can select a specific value from the list of valid values by clicking on the ellipsis symbol at the end of the field. Either scroll down the alphabetic list of code value descriptions to select the value you want, or type the first few letters of the code's description so that the alphabetic list scrolls to select the entry you want.
Deliver ISDN User Provided Number on emergency call This field appears only if the Call Agent signaling type field is set to ISDN PRI; it is not valid for a Business Group Line.
Use static NAT mapping Specifies whether the NE should perform Network Address Translation on the contents of messages sent to this subscriber. This field appears only if Call Agent signaling type is set to SIP. Values:
  • True
    Select this value if the subscriber is on a separate IP network from the NE and there is no Session Border Controller to provide the translation.
  • False
    Select this value if the subscriber is on the same IP network as the NE, or if they are on separate networks and there is a Session Border Controller associated with the firewall between the networks.
Maximum call appearances The maximum number of simultaneous call branches in which the subscriber can participate. This field appears, and must be supplied, only if Call Agent signaling type is set to SIP. Choose Use default or specify a value. When the subscriber's SIP phone registers with the NE, creating a Registered SIP Binding object, this value determines the number of SIP Call Appearance child objects of the Registered SIP Binding.
Maximum permitted contact refresh interval The maximum time for which a SIP registration from this subscriber remains valid. This field appears, and must be supplied, only if Call Agent signaling type is set to SIP. Choose Use default or specify a value. This time corresponds to the Expires header on the SIP request; the SIP phone will be disconnected if the user does not re-register within this time. The SIP phone may specify a shorter interval when registering, but if it specifies a longer interval or does not specify one, the value in this field is used in the SIP response. If the SIP phone specifies an interval lower than 3600 seconds (1 hour), this field must be set to the exact value specified by the SIP phone; otherwise the registration attempt is rejected and the SIP phone is disconnected.
VQM call logging This field appears only if VQM call logging is enabled on the Call Agent (in the Call Logging object). Specifies whether Voice Quality Management (VQM) data, if available, should be recorded for calls to or from this Business Group Line. You can view this data using the Call Logs function in the NE craft interface, as described in the IS, CA and MG Craft Interface Guide. Choose Use default to use the value specified on the parent Business Group, or specify a value:
  • True
  • False
