Is there a way to block a specific number dialing into the PBX?

I know the PRI it would be coming in on.

Is the specific number always going to the same endpoint?

If it is going to an endpoint that has a vector:
02 goto step 30 if ani = 2125551212
OR
02 goto step 30 if ani in table 1
then
add vrt 1
then add the ani to the list (and name the list)
either way, dispose of the call as you wish in step 30

if the endpoint is not vector controlled, I believe you'll have to run it through a vector to block ani.

... and if the number is not vector controlled, and it's a matter of harrassment, simply file a report with your telco's abuse department or local PD.

Now if you had a version that included EC500 you could do this:

I read this a little while ago..

Create an xmobile station like this:

Cell Phone Number: 'ANI NUMBER'
Mapping Mode: origination

AND create a COR with this:

Calling Party Restriction: origination

Crazy how ingenius this is. system is thinking its an EC500 call but the COR rejects it.. haha system wide or in my case by trunk.

That's friggin' awesome. You know, this simply confirms something that I've always said about the Definity (aka CM): There's about 400 ways to skin a cat ... and many of them Avaya never intended <lol>.

Does this use up any RTU? I don't have X-Station Mobility activated here, but I'm curious for future reference. I have a couple licenses of EC500 but they're all being used for, um, EC500 :)

This is even more awesome than I thought. I have a user that is getting collection agency calls, 5 in one day, for a former employee and typically they do not seem to believe when they are told they have reached the wrong person and she is no longer there. I created the ec500 station and the COR. When I tested with my cell phone number I get a fast busy and my cell phone display reads "Wrong Number". I had another employee try it with his cell phone number and he gets the recording, "The number cannot be completed as dialed" and again in Spanish. Now THAT is cool.

I tried creating a new extension with the 'xmobile' type and it wouldn't take. Do you need some sort of 'turnon' of this feature for this to work?

ahays

Yes. You must have EC500 licenses available.

but when I try and create a dummy ext as 'xmobile' it doesnt accept that. I know the exact number I want blocked but I do not know who this person is actually calling because they are *t'ing out of vm all over the place. where does ec500 come into play with all this?

ahays

EC500 = XMOBILE

So, if you have no EC500 RTUs then the PBX is not going to allow you to create XMOBILE stations.

I have ec500 licenses available but there are 2 flavors of ec500 in disp capacity. the xmobile section has 0 used or available so I'm assuming that this is not turned on. Anyone know of an approximate cost to have this available??
