Destination code numbering in a network
Because the system checks the initial digits of a call against the routing tables, each type of
internal or external call must begin with a unique pattern of digits. Table 57 gives a sample plan
for how initial digits are assigned in a network of systems with three-digit intercom numbers.
In Table 57, 4 is used as the initial digit for the coordinated dialing plan, but 5, or 6 can also be
used for this purpose.
Setting up a destination for local calling
An office can have different suppliers for local and long distance telephone service. By
programming a destination code, any call that begins with 9, which is the most common dial-out
digit, automatically uses lines dedicated to local service.
To build a route to allow local calls
1 Create a route that uses the line pool you assigned for the PSTN trunks. Refer to “Routes” on
page 296.
2 Create a destination code record and enter a destination code, such as 9, which is a common
local call code. Refer to “Grouping destination codes using a wild card” on page 287.
For local calls only, there are no dial out numbers. Compare with “Setting up a route through a
dedicated trunk” on page 286.
The destination code can use a different route, depending on what schedule is assigned. In the
current example, the route you define is used when someone dials 9 during Normal mode,
when the other Schedules are turned off.

6 Unused
1 Call Park Prefix
9 All PSTN Calls
7 Unused
Tips: When programming a button to dial an external number
automatically (autodial), private network calls must be programmed as
external autodial numbers, even though they resemble internal extension
numbers.
Routes generally define the path between the BCM system and another
switch in the network, not other individual telephones on that switch.
