Locking Attacked Extensions

If a user enters eight consecutive invalid passwords when logging on to voice mail or to activate an extension,
MaxCS 7.5 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 MaxCS 7.5. See “MAXCS Admin
& Extension Security Checker” on page 378.

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. If you block all outgoing calls, then calls between two systems will not go

through. This is because #38 blocks all trunks, including remote SIP-tie trunks

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.

System B

System A

Tie Trunk:
T1/PRI or
VoIP

Outgoing
call on
PSTN Trunk

The call originating on System B hops off over the T1/PRI or VoIP trunk to use the PSTN
trunk in System A. System A must be set up to allow System B to borrow its PSTN trunk.

Figure 21.

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 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 must be configured in the Out Call Routing Configuration window, Dialing Pattern tab. See
“About Dialing Patterns” on page 169.

Creating Account Codes

Account Codes

let you enable or force users to assign incoming and outgoing calls to particular account

codes for billing, tracking, or forecasting purposes. Up to 10,000 account codes can be created.
To access the Account Code tab, select System > System Configuration, then click the Account Code tab.
