In survivable mode, SLS provides only a limited subset of CM call processing functionality:
Limited call routing through a Survivable ARS Analysis Table (through the CLI) and COR calling permissions
Inbound calls are directed in one of three ways:
Using the Incoming-Routing screen
Using the Set Incoming-Destination on the Trunk group screen that enables mapping to a given station
Inbound calls are directed to a previously-administered pool of available stations (the Survivable Trunk Dest? field is y on the Station screen). The search algorithm is circular so that the incoming calls are fairly distributed.
Important:
SLS permits 911 calls, but the specific location information is not transmitted to the Public Service Answering Point (PSAP). Only the general trunk-identifying information is transmitted. Emergency personnel will have a general location associated with the trunk (for example, a building address), but nothing more specific (for example, a room or office number). Also, if a 911 call disconnects for any reason, emergency personnel cannot reliably call the originator back. A small business office’s address is sufficient from the perspective of emergency routing.
