Monthly Call Charge
more than 3 call attempts within 2 seconds. This prevents certain model switches from being
overloaded. In areas where these low capacity switches are not installed, calls can be made more
frequently.
Before the system initiates a data connection, it first checks the time at which the last connection
was initiated. If the time from the last connection attempt to the new connection attempt is less than
the configured call interval, the new connection is placed on an outgoing call queue. The queue is
then serviced at the configured call interval.

NFORMATION
Currently, this feature is only supported on connections to NTT, NET5, and 1TR6 switches. The
“Advice of Charge” information element delivered by the switches are required to track phone call
charges.
When the Monthly Call Charges option is enabled, phone call charges are tracked by the system. If
the total call charges exceed this configured maximum during the month, the configured action will
be taken. At the beginning of a new month, the current total call charges will be reset to 0.
