<p>Historically this has been on the carrier to perform the
necessary translation and route to the appropriate local dig-alert
number, just as the carrier redirects 611 to their own support
desk. This was also easier when a switch only had one digalert
line to worry about. <br>
</p>
<p>Once upon a time I had an exhaustive list of routing numbers in
my nation-wide translations table. <br>

<div dir="ltr">We don't handle any others in a
traditional way. Well, 611 is actually in place, to
our support line, but it has never once been used.
811 and 711 are used for 911 testing without a real
911 call, as carriers mostly use those for automated
systems that return your 911 info.</div>
