Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch MLHG Nonhunt Feature Module


Revised: July 31, 2008

This document describes the Multiline Hunt Group (MLHG) Nonhunt feature for Release 6.0.1 of the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch and explains how to use it.

Understanding the MLHG Nonhunt Feature

The MLGH Nonhunt feature enables you to provision a subscriber (belonging to an MLHG group) as a nonhunt subscriber. Subsequently, when a nonhunt subscriber is called directly, and the subscriber is busy, the Cisco BTS 10200 does not perform MLHG hunting to other terminals in the MLHG.


Note Although the Cisco BTS 10200 will not perform MLHG hunting to other terminals for a subscriber for whom the MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL token is set to Y when that subscriber is called directly, the Cisco BTS 10200 does invoke other terminal features for which the subscriber is provisioned. However, the Cisco BTS 10200 does not invoke the call waiting feature for this subscriber.


If the MLHG pilot number is called, or any other member in the MLHG group (with MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL=N) is called directly, as part of the MLHG hunting, the Cisco BTS 10200 still can select the terminal of the nonhunt subscriber (with MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL=Y) to receive the call.

Provisioning

To support the MLHG Nonhunt feature, Cisco added to the Cisco BTS 10200 a new token (MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL), inserting it in the SUBSCRIBER table. The token MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL is initialized to N by default. This token only applies for subscribers that belong to the various MLHG categories (the subscriber should have a valid non-NULL MLHG_ID field).

You can set the token MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL to Y when you initially provision the subscriber or you can change it from the default (N) some time after you initially provision the subscriber.

Table 1 provides steps for provisioning a subscriber as a non-hunt subscriber. The table lists sample CLI commands with mandatory tokens.

Task
CLI Command

Step 1

Determine the setting of the token MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL for the subscriber (sub1).

show SUBSCRIBER ID=sub1;

Step 2

Set the subscriber sub1 as a non-hunting subscriber.

change SUBSCRIBER ID=sub1; 
MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL=Y; 

Step 3

Set the subscriber sub1 back to a hunting subscriber.

change SUBSCRIBER ID=sub1; 
MLHG_NON_HUNT_TERMINAL=N;
