9.7.4 CON matrix

9.7.4	CON matrix

Settings | Classes of service | CON matrix

The connection matrix supports the ITR (Internal Traffic Restriction) feature via the CON matrix. You use the CON matrix to permit or suppress traffic between stations and trunks within the same system. This matrix is configured system-wide.

Through this matrix you can indicate:

whether or not a station is allowed/denied to call or receive calls from other stations

whether and how a station is permitted to seize a CO trunk, i.e., incoming only, outgoing only, or for both

ITR Example

To restrict a group of station numbers from making calls on long distance trunk lines, the stations and trunks could be assigned as shown below:

Group 1: Stations with access to local and long distance trunks.

Group 2: Stations with access to long distance trunks only.

Group 3: Local lines.

Group 4: Long distance lines.

The connection matrix would contain:

A double arrow between members of the same group to insure that the stations within each group can call one another, and that a conference with two trunks can be established.

A double arrow between Group 1 and Group 2, so that the stations in Group 1 can call the stations in Group 2 and vise versa.

A double arrow between Group 1 and Group 3, so that stations with local and long distance trunk access can make and receive calls through the local lines.

A double arrow between Group 1 to Group 4, so that stations with local and long distance trunk access can make and receive calls through the long distance lines.

A double arrow between Group 2 to Group 3, so that stations with only local trunk access can make and receive calls through the local lines.

An arrow pointing from Group 4 towards Group 2, so that stations with local trunk access can receive but not make calls through the long distance lines.

A double arrow between Group 3 to Group 4, so that a conference call between a local and a long distance trunk can be established.

9.7.4.1

Area: Connection matrix

To use the connection matrix, you must first assign each station to a group via Group assignment. By default all stations and all trunks are in Group 1. Since Group 1 is coded with unlimited access, by default, every station has access to every other station and to all trunks.

Note that the matrix shows one list of groups vertically across the top and another list of groups horizontally down the left-hand side. At each conjunction there is a box. The type of arrow in this box indicates the relationship of the two groups to one another.

Double arrow

To create a double arrow, click once on an empty field.

See ITR Example for meaning.

Up arrow

To create an up arrow, click twice on an empty field.

See ITR Example for meaning.

Left arrow

To create a left arrow, click three times on an empty field.

See ITR Example for meaning.

(empty field)

To return to an empty field, click four times on an empty field.

See ITR Example for meaning.

In a field that points to the same group in both directions, the only options are the double arrow and the empty field.

An empty field means that no connection is possible. A connection matrix with no arrows results in a totally disabled communication system.

9.7.4.2

Area: Reset

Block All button

This button is used to delete all entered connection arrows.

Click this button if you want to block all calls so that no stations can call any other stations.

Release All button

This button is used to enter connection arrows to all fields.

Click this button if you want all stations to be able to connect to all other stations and to use all trunks.

Group-Internal Only button

Click this button if you want each group to be able to connect only with members of that group.
