So, if you port in the morning, people using their switch won't be able to call the new customer until the next day.</p>

<div dir="ltr">Based on how things work in Canada, but should not be much different for you. Two common scenarios:</div>
<div dir="ltr">Often class 4/5 switches or STPs are configured to cache LRN records either for X number of minutes or hours. Thus reducing number of dips it has to make. I think of it like dns caching. When particular record expires it would dip again. X would differ by carrier, so you cant tell for sure and cant fix that other than wait</div>
<div dir="ltr">Sometimes a number is not removed from a local switch it used to be programmed in. So even after LRN is changed, other ppl in that same switch will hit the old / disconnected line. But all other callers will reach you no problem. This is because older switches do local subscriber lookup before doing LRN dip... so if there is a bogus local record it will win over anything LRN related. This issue would be isolated to single switch / single carrier and wont resolve by itself until someone removes the number programming.</div>

Once it expires they will redip for the proper LRN and calls flow normally...</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">I guess it happens to me but I simply ignore it.. it will fix itself. I normally do ports in the evening and that way we have a solid 12 plus hours before they open the next morning.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Or did I misread the question and gave a terrible answer?</div>

<div class="BodyFragment">
<div class="PlainText">I would like to preface this email by saying that I know that iconnectiv is managing ports now, but we just have the old Neustar portal working as the front end because I haven't had time to learn how all this stuff works so that I can properly train our employees on how to use the new portal.<br /><br /><br /> Undo business. Our people that manage the porting currently go into the neustar portal and activate a port. At that time, some carriers immediately start using bus. However, some carriers will still send traffic to the losing provider for some amount of time after that. Sometimes that is okay, sometimes it is not. I assume that there is not a darn thing that I can do about how quickly someone else decides to look up the number to see that it has been ported.<br /><br /> However, can someone explain to me how common this is and what providers arnone for being sloppy? For example, last night we did a port at 9 pm. A test call that we did to a forwarding number that would have bounced through AT&T ILEC went through fine every time. Calls that would have gone through a variety of cell providers was extremely Hit or Miss, Even from the same operator.<br /><br /><br /> I apologize for any misused words. I was using voice to text and editing that on my phone can be difficult.<br /><br /><br /><br /> -----<br /> Mike Hammett<br /> Intelligent Computing Solutions<br /><a href="http://www.ics-il.com">http://www.ics-il.com</a><br /><br /><br /><br /> Midwest Internet Exchange<br /><a href="http://www.midwest-ix.com">http://www.midwest-ix.com</a><br /><br /> _______________________________________________<br /> VoiceOps mailing list<br /><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:VoiceOps@voiceops.org">VoiceOps@voiceops.org</a><br /><a href="https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops">https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops</a></div>
