Nortel DMS-100 Line Attribute Table (LINEATTR) |
Table Name
Line Attribute Table
Functional Description of Table LINEATTR
Line attributes are assigned to regular lines in table LENLINES (Line Assignment), to Meridian stations and attendant consoles in Meridian Digital Centrex (MDC) translation tables, to Residential Enhanced Services (RES) lines in table IBNLINES (IBN Line Assignment), to Single-Line Basic Rate Interface (SLBRI) lines in table KSETLINE (Business Set and Data Unit Line Assignment), and to wireless lines in table CELLCUST (Cellular Customer).
NA011 feature AU3279, LINEATTR SERVORD Enhancements, split table LINEATTR into three tables to make data management easier:
The LINEATTR Compression Tool feature (59017776) checks for duplicate tuples during the ADD, CHA, and REP commands. A warning message appears before the confirmation to provide an alert of a duplicate tuple. The message only generates when table OFCVAR (Office Variables) parameter XLAPLAN_RATEAREA_SERVORD_ENABLED (XRSE) is set to MANDATORY_PROMPTS. This warning does not prevent datafill validation.
For switches using North American translations, all changes to translations fields are made in table XLAPLAN, and all changes to billing fields are made in table RATEAREA.
Partitioned Table Editor
In DMS-100 switch offices with the Partitioned Table Editor (PTE) feature, the operating company can authorize a non-operating company user to use PTE to edit specified tuples of table LINEATTR.
To access a tuple in table LINEATTR, the tuple must be owned by the end user. Ownership of tuples is defined in field OWNER of table DATAOWNR (Data Owner).
PTE enables the operating company to limit edit access to a table for a specified end user. Access can be set to denied, read-only, change-only, or add and delete tuples. It is recommended that PTE access for non-operating company users be limited to change-only access.
For additional information on PTE and Customer Data Change (CDC), refer to tables OWNER and DATAOWNR.
Datafill Sequence
The following tables must be datafilled before table LINEATTR:
For international switches, the following tables must be datafilled before table LINEATTR:
Table Size
0 to 32,000 tuples
Memory is automatically allocated for the maximum number of tuples. Operating company personnel can delete tuples in this table if the tuple is not referenced in other tables.

(up to 16 Enter the index into table LINEATTR.
characters)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LCC Alphanumeric Line Class Code
(up to 8 Enter the Line Class Code (LCC) assigned to
characters, or the line attribute index. The LCC of an
NLCC) existing tuple cannot be changed. If there
is no LCC, enter "NLCC".
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHGCLSS CAM0, CAM1, Charge Class
CAM2, CAM3, If the switching unit is configured for Local
CSD0, DAT0, Automatic Message Accounting (LAMA), enter
DAT1, DAT2, the charge class assigned to the line attribute
DAT3, DIHS, index. Otherwise, enter "NONE".

LCDR, MBG, (CDE) format, entry is "NONE" except in offices
RCFW, SPCL, with the AMA Modernization feature.
TRMB, TWX0,
WAT0, or NONE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COST HI, LO, or NT Class of Service Tone
Enter the class of service tone required:
"HI" (high tone), "LO" (low tone), or "NT"
(no tone).
The class of service tone forwarded to the
operator depends on the type of originator
and on the values in field COST of table
LINEATTR and fields CSTHTONE and CSTLTONE
of table OFRT (Office Route).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LTG Numeric Line Treatment Group
(0 to 9,998) Enter the Line Treatment Group (LTG) number
assigned to the line attribute index.
The LTG number discriminates between customer
lines assigned to the same LCC but with
different routing or screening patterns.
If more than one LTG number is assigned,
office parameter SO_PROMPT_FOR_LTG in
table OFCVAR (Office Variables) must be
set to "Y".
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRAFSNO Numeric Traffic Separation Number
(0 to 127) Enter the source and destination traffic
separation number (1 to 127) assigned to the
line attribute index. If a traffic separation
number is not required, enter "0" (zero).
Traffic separation enables a peg count of Direct
Dial (DD), Operator Assisted (OA), or No Prefix
(NP) calls to be accumulated between an incoming
source (incoming trunk or originating line
attribute) and an outgoing source (outgoing
trunk, terminating line attribute, tone, or
announcement).
For switching units with feature package
NTX085AA (Traffic Separation Peg Count), the
range of values for the traffic separation
number is dependent on the value of office
parameters TFAN_IN_MAX_NUMBER and
TFAN_OUT_MAX_NUMBER in table OFCENG
(Office Engineering).
For switching units without feature package
NTX085AA, the range of values for the traffic
separation number is 0 to 5.
Refer to table TFANINT (Traffic Separation
Intersection) for more information on traffic
separation numbers.

RES Residential Enhanced Services
Line class code RES is automatically assigned to lines with a LCC of 1FR, 1MR, OWT,
EOW, INW, 2WW, ETW, CCF, CDF, CFD, CSP, ZMD, or ZMZPA whenever an option from the
MDC custom calling feature set is added to the line.
Conversely, if all options from the MDC custom calling feature set are removed from a
line that has a LCC of RES, the LCC automatically reverts to 1FR, 1MR, OWT, EOW, INW,
2WW, ETW, CCF, CDF, CFD, CSP, ZMD, or ZMZPA.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPC Semi-Permanent Connection
In a switch with an international load, assign a LCC of SPC to lines that are used
to set up semi-permanent connections.
An SPC is one that can be set up or taken down by operating company personnel in a
DMS-100 international switch. A semi-permanent connection has two members. Each of
the two members of the connection can be a line with a LCC of SPC or a trunk of
trunk group type SPC. The subscriber can use the speech/data path for the duration
of the connection.
Refer to table SPECCONN (P-Side to P-Side Special Connection) for more information
on semi-permanent connections.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STD Standard International POTS Line
In a switch with an international load, assign a LCC of STD to standard
international POTS lines.

TWX TWX Service
Assign a LCC of TWX to lines with Teletype Writer Exchange (TWX) service.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VLN Virtual Line
Assign a LCC of VLN to Remote Call Forwarding (RCF) lines.
Remote call forwarding enables a subscriber to establish a Directory Number (DN)
in one local calling area that translates to a phone in another local calling area.
A remote call forwarding DN has no hardware associated with it. Calls placed to
RCF DNs are automatically forwarded to the call forwarding number.
RCF DNs are defined in table CFW (Regular and Remote Call Forwarding).
Field LINEATTR in table CFW indexes table LINEATTR, pointing to lines with a
LCC of VLN. These lines are called virtual because no physical equipment is
associated with the DN.
If MUMR (Multi-Unit Message Rate) billing is required for a RCF line,
the RCF-to-terminator leg of the call is of type No Prefix (NP), and field
MRSA in the associated LINEATTR tuple is datafilled with a valid
Multi-Unit Message Rate Area (MRSA) name. Direct Dial (DD) or Equal Access
(EA) billing records are produced instead of MUMR records if the second leg of
the call is not of type NP.
If MUMR billing is not required for a RCF line, field MRSA in the associated
LINEATTR tuple is set to "NIL".
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ZMD Zero Minus Denied Service
Assign a LCC of ZMD to an individual line using a pre-translator different from
the pre-translator provided for 1FR lines or the pre-translator provided for
ZMZPA lines. The pre-translator for ZMD lines must be datafilled to enable
only 0+ calls and to block 011 calls. This LCC can be assigned only if the
switching unit is equipped to support coinless pay station lines.
To define a RES ZMD line, enter "Y" in field RESINFO.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ZMZPA Zero Minus Zero Plus Allowed Service
Assign a LCC of ZMZPA to an individual line using a pre-translator different from
the pre-translator provided for 1FR lines. The pre-translator for ZMZPA lines
must be datafilled to enable only 0- and 0+ calls and to block 011 calls.
This LCC can be assigned only if the switching unit is equipped to support coinless
pay station lines. ZMZPA lines appear as ZMA when posted by the MAP terminal.
To define a RES ZMZPA line, enter "Y" in field RESINFO.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1FR Individual Flat Rate Service
Assign a LCC of 1FR to individual flat rate lines.
To define a RES 1FR line, enter "Y" in field RESINFO.
