Posted By: Calven007 DISA access from an remote location. - 04/24/05 01:27 AM
Hello.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to gain remote access to a trunk on your system?

I already know you that you need to:

step#1 Assign a DISA trunk in MMC#410

However, the next step is unclear to me.

Do you then need to.

Assign a station with a COS with DISA enabled.

Then place a direct call into that station from a remote location and dial "*" to dial the outside line?

Anyone with any experience with this? I'm just curious.

Thanks.

you need to change atleast one station password in order for it to function properly. the default passwords dont work for security reasons

Ok, I understand I have to change the default password but other than that, would the principal on calling that extension from an remote location then dialing the * to get an open trunk correct?

Thanks.

No when you set a trunk to do disa and you call in on that trunk it gives you a system tone not a dail tone. so at the system tone you dail 202 or what ever the extension is and the passcode ie 2024545 4545 bieng the passcode then dail say 701 for line one and make your call or you can dail an ext like 500 to ring the operator group or 201 to call that ext direct when you want to make another call dail * and to terminate your call dail #

when you call in at the system tone just dail the ext+code and no *
Hello.

I have kind of a few stupid followup question.

1. As soon as you enable DISA for a trunk. All you need to do is dial into that trunk to receive a system tone?

Normally when you dial into a trunk, it will ring at an extension or I think will ring at 500 as a default if you don't have an extension assigned to it. Please correct me if I'm wrong here. How do you get the trunk to give you a system tone as soon as you call into it?

2. If you assign the trunk to ring into the extension(which has DISA enabled), does that mean you can skip step 1?

3. How do you dial into a specific trunk.

I realize with analog lines/channel banks going into a C1 Trunk card. You have phone number assign to a trunk.

However, I have a PRI lines going into a TEPRI card. It basically just grabs whatever trunk happens to be available. Is there a simple way to do this that I'm overlooking to dial into a certain trunk?

Thanks.

well 1. yes when you dail in on a disa trunk it automatically gives you a system tone (when you enabled disa the trunk ring was disabled on that line but only during disa times ie day or night or both, when it is not in disa mode it rings normal)

2. you cant assign a disa line to ring a station or group disa means direct inward system access and that is what you achieve when you call in, the system gives you access as if you were an extension on site


3.701 is line one 702 is line two and so on but if your trunks are actually channels on a pri I think 9 still works but thats not the point the question is what exactly are you setting to be disa a channel ? or a trunk ? I dont think its a wise idea to set disa on a pri or for that matter I dont think you can, but im not positive on that

also please include all information when posting ie you are using a pri on a tepri card. it helps when we know what you have before we can respond correctly. I personally have never set disa on a channel I dont even know if you can but im gonna try it out on our test bench and see (this senario has never come up for us) oh and one last question why disa on a pri I cant see the point

Hello.

May I ask why a PRI trunk would discourage you to do DISA access? I thought the concept of DISA would be to gain remote access to a trunk on a system? Why would it make a difference if the system was connected to a TI,PRI or analog trunks?

Thank you for the response.I appreciate your help.

well if the pri is set to using any channel or highest first you wouldnt get the disa in a consistant manner unless you set a channel specifically for disa and this would defeat the purpose of a pri and its ability to use did on all channels ie you lock up a channel for disa only this would also create the issue of what ddi you would use and were to route it in mmc 714 but I could be wrong.(it has happened before) see thats the problem I have not used a pri in that manner so I cant be positive it works correctly if at all
