[cisco-voip] Call Forward All With Line/Device CSS

[Eric Pedersen]

If you put your 911 patterns in a device-level CSS and the rest in a line-level CSS then you can apply the line CSS to the call forward settings. Aren't you concerned about people forwarding their phones to long distance numbers though? That's usually a concern too.

Subject: [cisco-voip] Call Forward All With Line/Device CSS

Hey all,
 searched through my archives but couldn't find a solid answer on this.  We are trying to streamline our build processes and one of the things we are considering is switching to "With Activating Device/Line CSS" so we don't have to build CFWD CSS's for each individual site.  My only concern would be someone forwarding a call to 911 by mistake, which we currently block on the CFWD-CSS.  Odds are it would be a pretty rare thing for someone to forward all to 911, but i wouldn't put it past a user to do it.  I have seen them CFWD all to all kinds of weird stuff(particularly from a 7925 wi-fi phone they stick in their pocket) , so i figure its only a matter of time before they do it, and we would get a hefty fine for bogus 911 calls.
Does anybody have a better way to use the "Line/Device" CFWD-CSS but prevent calls to unwanted #'s,

OR

At least a quick way to find out if a particular DN was forwarded to a particular #(some kind of report)?.
OR

 Am i just being a little paranoid?  Other than the 911 forwarding, I think this feature is a no brainer, and would be one less thing to build and/or have a new engineer mess up, as the case may be.
