<div>In looking in my Metaswitch config, it appears that only
8YY traffic destined for my LATA (which doesn't really make
any sense) goes to the tandem. Everything else goes out to a
domestic termination provider.<br>

<p>How does your switch know that the 8YY in question is destined
for your LATA? I mean, you have to provide a valid path in the
LATA for the CICs that might come back based on your source TN,
like if you're calling from NPA 248, you should have that sent
somewhere in LATA 340 in case the SMS/800 has a specific cutout
for various LATAs to use certain CICs (for example, I use
Inteliquent's FGD code in areas where Inteliquent has built it
out, but not in other LATAs where Inteliquent hasn't built out, so
dipping LATA 340 (Detroit) and then terminating the call to a
local tandem in rural idaho isn't going to work well!)</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>That's the only caveat I'm aware of you need to concern yourself
with - that the CICs returned from your toll free dip are going to
be valid for the tandem you are connected to, more or less.<br>
