[cisco-voip] IPT QS: CSS and Partitioning

[Syed Khalid Ali]

Thanks for the reply.

So with FAC we don't have the facility of billing, to be specific the CDR functionality.  One more thing I was trying to configure ip phones with ccm 4.1.3, created some users and associated the corresponding devices with it. However, I did not configure any CSS or PT, that all device in NONE state. Calls can be made but IP Phones (hard or soft) were not showing me any Caller Name instead Unknow number was displayed on the phone.

Regarding the Quotes for the book.
If I only configure PTs, will the phones in that PT be able to talk with each other?

Regards,
Khalid

By default, all Call Search Spaces (CSS) have the <NONE> partition at the end of the list of partitions (we can not see this in the configuration), so once you place a device in any parition other
 than <none> that new partition must be contained in the CSS of the calling device for a call to be made. If you were to put a route pattern in a partition of <none>, that would mean it is present in every CSS on the system and accessible from every device.
 
Forced Authorization Codes are applied to route patterns to apply a level of class of restritction, so if a user dials a route pattern that has a FAC on it, they must enter a PIN to be able to complete
 the call, i.e to be able to dial international you must have a PIN number assigned to you to be able to dial.

 
Client Matter Codes mark a call with a certain code so that a billing application can log calls made or recieved to a certain client, typically used by law firms that are billing customers for phone
 calls.

All,



I was reading CCM fundamentals 2nd edition and got confused on the following verdicts:



Partitions divide the set of all route patterns into subsets of equally reachable destinations.
Equally reachable means that a user who can call any single member of the subset can call all members of the subset.



Then in subsequent paragraph the author says:



A partition is an attribute of an address. It belongs to called entities; it has no bearing on who a device can call. Membership in a partition does not automatically mean that a device can call other devices in the partition.
 The list of partitions in a device's calling search space is the sole dictator of who it can call.


Further,if we add devices to partitions other than NONE, the NONE partition device loose access to other device. Is this the case in opposite direction, that is visibility of route patterns in NONE partition to devices in partition other than NONE.



What is the difference b/w Force Authorization Code and Client Matter Codes.
What I understood that CMC allow the ability for biliing and logging in CDR.



Need Clarification!



Regards,

Khalid
