your TAC case, perhaps you got a outsourced or less experienced engineer at
Cisco. Their support has varied depending on which city/group you get. Some have
more experience then others.</FONT></DIV>

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">We turned up a new customer
yesterday evening, typical situation, Cisco 2600 Router with T1 PRI card pointed
to the customer’s analog PBX with 2 data T1’s linked back to our network.
The router PRI was configured as a gateway on our CCM 4, like we’ve done
numerous times in the past. The customer needed LD Authorization codes
enabled, got the list 400+, and configured them in the CCM, no problem. We
started passing calls, local was fine but the LD would not work, turned the LD
codes off and LD would work. After engaging Cisco TAC, was informed that
LD coded do not work with this type of gateway device.</SPAN></FONT></P>

all the LD traffic with a 3 digit code and send it to one of my Cluster Asterisk
Servers. I put in a pattern for matching just this customers LD traffic as
so:</SPAN></FONT></P>
