/mcpConfigure partitions to restrict call forwarding to certain numbers based on your design criteria and requirements. Procedure Step 1 From Cisco Unified CM Administration, choose Call Routing > Class of Control > Partition. Step 2 Click Add New to create a new partition. Step 3 In the Partition Name, Description field, enter a name for the partition that is unique to the route plan. Partition names can contain alphanumeric characters, as well as spaces, hyphens (-), and underscore characters (_). See the online help for guidelines about partition names. Step 4 Enter a comma (,) after the partition name and enter a description of the partition on the same line. The description can contain up to 50 characters in any language, but it cannot include double quotes ("), percentage sign (%), ampersand (&), backslash (), angle brackets (<>), or square brackets ([ ]). If you do not enter a description, Cisco Unified Communications Manager automatically enters the partition name in this field. Step 5 To create multiple partitions, use one line for each partition entry. Step 6 From the Time Schedule drop-down list, choose a time schedule to associate with this partition. The time schedule specifies when the partition is available to receive incoming calls. If you choose None, the partition remains active at all times. Step 7 Select one of the following radio buttons to configure the Time Zone: • Originating Device—When you select this radio button, the system compares the time zone of the calling device to the Time Schedule to determine whether the partition is available is available to receive an incoming call. • Specific Time Zone—After you select this radio button, choose a time zone from the drop-down list. The system compares the chosen time zone to the Time Schedule to determine whether the partition is available is available to receive an incoming call. Step 8 Click Save. Partition Name Guidelines for Call Forwarding The list of partitions in a calling search space is limited to a maximum of 1024 characters. This means that the maximum number of partitions in a CSS varies depending on the length of the partition names. Use the following table to determine the maximum number of partitions that you can add to a calling search space if partition names are of fixed length.
