Locking Attacked Extensions
If a user enters eight consecutive invalid passwords when logging on to voice mail or to
activate an extension, AltiWare considers this an attack. To protect your company from
theft of services, you can lock an attacked extension for the period of time you specify
(10 minutes - 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds) in the Password Check field
group.
To unlock an extension, use the Extension Checker tool that is installed with AltiWare.
See “AltiWare Admin & Extension Security Checker” on page 391.
Blocking All Outgoing Calls
To block all outgoing calls—for example, during the night when no employee is in the
office—check the Block All Outgoing Calls check box.
Enabling Hop Off for Tie Trunks
When selected, this function allows users from another system to borrow a PSTN trunk
in this system to make an outbound call over a T1 or VoIP tie trunk.
Figure 10. Hop Off for Tie Trunks
Restricting Tie Trunk Calls
You can set call restrictions on hop-off calls by telling the system to use the same
restrictions as the ones set up for an extension. Using the Call restriction follows
extension drop-down list, you can select the extension with the restrictions to use for
the hop-off calls.
Setting 10-Digit Dialing Area Codes
The 10-Digit Dialing Area Code field lets you define area codes that do not require
dialing a “1” before the area code. To enter an area code, click the Add button.
Note: Applies only to calls that use a trunk access code. For calls using a route access
code, 10-digit dialing area codes need to be configured in the Out Call Routing
Configuration window, Dialing Pattern tab. See “Working on Dialing Patterns” on
page 185.
