Question
An administrator is designing a new Cisco UCM for a company with many departments and firm structure on their communications policies. The administrator must make sure that these communication policies are reflected in the phone system setup. Certain departments cannot be accessed directly, even if they have dedicated DID numbers. Some phones, especially public phones, must not be able to dial international numbers Which type of function is configured to control which device is allowed to call another device in Cisco UCM?
Options
- Apartitions and calling search spaces
- Bcalling patterns and route patterns
- Cregions and device pools
- Dlinks and pipes

Why each option
To enforce granular communication policies, such as restricting access to certain departments or preventing international dialing for specific phones, Cisco UCM utilizes partitions and calling search spaces.
Partitions define logical groupings of dialable numbers, and Calling Search Spaces (CSS) define which partitions a device (or line, trunk, etc.) is allowed to access. By assigning numbers to specific partitions and then configuring CSSs for various devices, an administrator can precisely control which numbers can be dialed by which phones, thus implementing granular communication policies.
Calling patterns and route patterns are used to match dialed numbers and route calls, but they do not directly control permissions for which devices can call other devices in the same granular way as partitions and CSS.
Regions and device pools primarily manage codec selection, bandwidth allocation, and device configuration settings, not call routing permissions or restrictions between devices.
'Links and pipes' are not standard Cisco UCM configuration elements for controlling call routing permissions or communication policies.
Concept tested: Cisco UCM call routing policy control (partitions, CSS)
