We did discuss this option with our LEC's 911 service provider team and they were able to assure us that adding a delay was not an issue, as long as the call still went through. With over 8,000 sets and 20,000 people, it's difficult to educate everyone and ensure misdials don't happen or that they stay on the phone. They think they can hang-up quick enough! ;) In addition, I proposed the technical solution, and let management (including our director of security/police) make the final decision. We have an added bonus, in that we have our own emergency extension and police force to respond. However, 911 calls still go to the PSAP.<br><br><br>---<br>Lelio Fulgenzi, B.A.<br>Senior Analyst (CCS) * University of Guelph * Guelph, Ontario N1G 2W1<br>(519) 824-4120 x56354 (519) 767-1060 FAX (JNHN)<br>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^<br>"Bad grammar makes me [sic]" - Tshirt<br><br><br>----- Original Message -----<br>From: "Chris Ward (chrward)" <chrward@cisco.com><br>To: "Lelio Fulgenzi" <lelio@uoguelph.ca>, "kurakani" <kurakani@yahoo.com><br>Cc: cisco-voip@puck.nether.net<br>Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 10:52:00 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern<br>Subject: RE: [cisco-voip] FAC<br><br>

a phone training issue), you need to train the users to stay on the call and notify
the PSAP operator that it was a misdial as hanging up will always result in a
dispatch and after a certain number of dispatches, you can be fined.</span></p>

misdialing most frequently and see if you can assist them in correcting this

will see plenty of options.<br>
<br>
My route (no pun intended) was to add a delay after 911 to avoid misdials.<br>

I am experiencing frequent 911 calls made by users and want to control it.
Would it be a good idea to do it by using Forced Authorizatoin Code (FAC) in
the route pattern for 911 calls?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
