Allowed Lists
DESCRIPTION
When the MERLIN II system is first set up, all voice terminals can be used for
all types of calls.
However, the administrator can restrict selected voice
terminals so that people can use them to place only intercom or local calls (see
“Call Restriction” ) If that is too limiting, the administrator can allow people
with restricted voice terminals to call particular area codes and/or exchanges
by assigning lists of these permitted numbers (allowed lists) to the vice
terminals.
● Only the system administrator can establish allowed lists.
CONSIDERATIONS
● A system can have up to eight allowed lists, each with as many as ten
entries. Each entry can contain a leading 1, if required, plus a maximum
of six characters. These can be an area code, an exchange code, an area
code plus an exchange code, or an emergency number such as 911.
