Does anyone know how to block all 900 calls on a Avaya partner system. Also would it be better to do it in programming or just have ATT set it up on each(6) centrix line?

This should help point you in the right direction:

Check out page 116/466 and following for how to add entries to Disallow tables. After the tables are built, assign the table(s) to the extensions.

Have AT&T block it on the centrex lines.

If using the Partner programming, you will be making codes to restrict a 19+wildcard..... so when you go offhook and press 9 for the Centrex line, it will ignore your restriction.

Seems to me I did this before....i am thinking I removed the emergency dialing and added some other restrictions putting teh 911 into an exception group...But i am having a hard time remembering.

Thanks Dexman this is what I was looking for

If you can't get the restriction to work (see Mongo's reply), have at&t block the calls.

Just make restriction table No. 1 look like this:

1 - 1900
2 - 91900

Assign it to the telephones, and you should be good to go. You don't need to make 19+ wildcards, as soon as you go off hook, and dial one of these patterns, you will get wave off.
