September 2019

• Vendor Intelligent Call Extension:

  • Added this new feature to Terminating Vendor trunk groups to allow the user to set the short duration percentage threshold described in the vendor MSA and our switching will automatically turn call extend to that vendor on or off depending on the current traffic patterns.

  • Example: If the vendor is configured for 20% short duration and the vendor has only received 15% so far on the day, the extension would remain off. However, if the vendor begins to receive above 20%, the extension would get turned on until the short duration percentage comes back down below the 20% threshold.
