(
✔
= Not Assigned)
There should be an “A” (Assigned) in this column for each extension for which unanswered calls are
to be sent automatically to the mailbox associated with that extension.
No Ring
If the mail system will automatically transfer fax calls, Line Ringing for the fax extensions should be
set to No Ring. Fax Machine Extensions (#601) are identified on communications system Form B1.
Lines/Pools Not Assigned
For PARTNER II Release 3 and 3.1 systems and PARTNER Plus Release 3.1 systems, this column
heading is Line Assignment (#301).
This column must indicate that all lines are to be removed from the VMS-RMD extension identified
on Form B1.
Security Alert:
All lines must be removed from the Remote Maintenance Device extension to limit the
possibility of toll fraud abuse.
Outgoing Call Restriction (#401) ( ✔ = No Restriction)
This column should indicate that the VMS-RMD extension identified on Form B1 is to be restricted to
Inside Only.
In addition,

If Outcalling is not permitted on the mail system, the PARTNER MAIL extensions identified on
Form B1 also should be restricted to Inside Only.
If Outcalling is permitted, Outgoing Call Restriction should be used with Allowed and
Disallowed Lists to meet the needs of the business while maintaining the security of the
system.
Security Alert:
Outcalling introduces the risk of toll fraud abuse. Outgoing Call Restriction, Allowed
Lists, and Disallowed Lists can reduce the risk. Extensions connected to the mail
system ports should be restricted as much as the needs of the business allow.
For the extensions connected to port 1 on a two-port system, ports 1, 2, and 3 on a four-port
system, or ports 1 through 4 on a six-port system, Outgoing Call Restriction should be set to
Inside Only.
For the extensions connected to the Outcalling ports (port 2 on a two-port system, port 4 on a
four-port system or ports 5 and 6 on a six-port system), Outgoing Call Restriction should be
set to the most restrictive value that the business allows; then Allowed and Disallowed Lists
should be assigned as needed. For example, if Outgoing Call Restriction is set to Inside Only,
an Allowed List containing all numbers to which Outcalls are allowed must be created. This list
must be assigned to the extensions connected to port 2, port 4, or ports 5 and 6.
Allowed and Disallowed Lists are created using communications system Form D. They are
assigned as described below.
