To deny long distance calls made in After Hours on an Avaya IP Office, which two steps are necessary? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• AUse a short code to disable the ARS
• BPlace the line group out of service as part of Night Service
• CAdd ARS entries that begin with long distance prefixes
• DUse a time profile

• A
  81% (25)
• B
  13% (4)
• D
  6% (2)

Explanation

Denying long-distance calls during After Hours on Avaya IP Office requires two coordinated pieces: ARS entries that match long-distance prefixes (C) so the system can identify and intercept those dialing patterns, and a short code that disables or overrides ARS (A) for the After Hours time period, effectively blocking the route. Together, these create a complete restriction - without the ARS entries, the system has nothing to target, and without the short code override, nothing enforces the block.

Option B is wrong because placing a line group out of service removes all outgoing call capability, not just long distance - it's a blunt instrument that would also kill local and emergency calls. Option D is wrong because a time profile alone is passive; it defines when a period occurs but cannot by itself deny any calls without being tied to an active mechanism like a short code or Night Service configuration.

Memory tip: Think "identify, then block" - C identifies long-distance patterns (ARS entries), A blocks them (short code override). If it doesn't touch ARS, it doesn't selectively target long distance.
