Explanation
Toll fraud on voicemail ports occurs when an attacker exploits a voicemail system's transfer or callback capabilities to place unauthorized PSTN calls. In Cisco Unified Communications Manager, voicemail ports are directory numbers assigned a Calling Search Space (CSS). The CSS determines which partitions - and therefore which dial patterns - the voicemail port is permitted to route calls to. By assigning a restrictive CSS to voicemail ports that only allows internal destinations and blocks PSTN or long-distance patterns, administrators prevent the voicemail system from being used as a relay for fraudulent calls. FAC (Forced Authorization Codes) controls end-user dialing, not voicemail ports, and IP trusted lists apply to signaling trust, not call routing restrictions.
