From what I can tell, this topic has been mentioned once here in Alcatel Unleashed but I think I need more help.
ARS trunks, Barring Tables, Discriminators, Barring Matrix, their all so confusing!
I need to block outgoing numbers (and possibly number ranges) on our OXO. Blocking/redirecting incoming calls would be useful too but isn't that important.
I've tried to setup different barring rules but none actually do anything.
Can someone create a quick step-by-step guide on blocking an outgoing number?
The system has one T2 ISDN Trunk with 20 b-channels EDSS1. All Traffic Shaping and Barring tables are at the factory defaults.
What would I do to bar an outgoing number like 1223 from being called from any analogue or digital phone connected to the oxo?

Blocking Incoming/Outgoing Numbers
Re: Blocking Incoming/Outgoing Numbers
Im a bit rough on the OXO (been a few years), but I do seem to remember that there is a barring table to set firstly, and then associate the trunk to that table.
Traffic Sharing and Barring - rest/barring tables -
then create a table - say table 6.
Add Prefix 1223 Type=forbidden
(make sure you click add)
Next
External lines -> List or Trunks groups -> details -> link_Cos -> under "voice"
and change Normal and rest. to 6.
This will stop calls to 1223 that use that trunk group.
As for imcoming calls, im outta depth, but on the OXE there is a parameter for called number filtering which would serve this purpose.
Hope that helps.

Re: Blocking Incoming/Outgoing Numbers
That's great. I followed your steps, except after I changed the voice numbers on the trunk groups, I found I couldn't dial out!
I think I may have got lost when you spoke about rest/barring tables. I couldn't find where you referred to "creating a table".
What is relationship between Barring Tables, Barring Matrix and Traffic Sharing Matrix?

Re: Blocking Incoming/Outgoing Numbers
I've worked out what I need.
Under OMC -> Traffic Sharing & Barring -> Barring Tables.
There is a list of barring levels, 1-6. Barring Level 7 is unrestricted.
If no barring rules are defined in the Barring Table, the default connections are forbidden.
Under OMC -> Subscribers/Basestations list -> ext -> Details -> Barring.
And OMC -> External Lines -> List of Accesses -> trunk -> Details -> Link-Category.
You can either set voice/non-voice barring levels for each extension/subscriber or set it per Trunk.

cool - glad the info was useful 
Re: Blocking Incoming/Outgoing Numbers
Very sorry for reviving this thread, but this is the most accurate information I could find on here to what I'm trying to achieve. I was able to follow the tips for outgoing calls, unfortunately I cannot find how to do the same for incoming calls. Help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
