Toll Restriction
There are two elements Toll Restriction software must verify for a user to successfully complete
long distance calling:
♦ The first five digits of the number dialed to access the long distance special common carrier
(SPCC).
♦ The total number of digits allowed following the SPCC number.
Items 3 and 5
Enter the first five digits of the SPCC telephone number in the spaces labeled SPCC1 Telephone
Number (Item 3) or SPCC2 Telephone Number (Item 5) on the record sheet. The initialized state
assigns “00000” to Items 3 and 5.
Items 4 and 6
The allowed digit length is the total number of digits allowed to be dialed after the SPCC Number
and before Toll Restriction Digit Restriction activates. This can be 00~99 digits. In most cases, 99
digits should be allowed for voice mail applications. Do not enter a digit length greater than
necessary or users may be able to override Toll Restriction.
Initialized data assigns “00” to items 4 and 6. Enter two digits on the record sheet.
A restricted station is not able to place a toll call through a long distance carrier by dialing the
SPCC1 or SPCC2 telephone number if the station is denied from that number in other toll
restriction programs. Upon recognizing the first five digits dialed, Toll Restriction software is
notified to allow the number of digits programmed in items 4 or 6 (00~99, following the including
the dialed SPCC1 or 2 number).
The system interprets data to be a seven-digit local call or 1-800 number to an SPCC. Only five
digits are entered; therefore, the last digits are “wild card” digits; any number dialed that has the
same first five digits as the carrier’s SPCC number, the system will assume the SPCC is being
called.
