A system and a method of automatically de-activating telecommunications equipment without disconnecting stable calls

摘要

A computerized method of automatically de-activating telecommunications equipment includes the steps of automatically polling a plurality of line trunk managers to obtain the number of circuits in use for stable calls and the number of circuits in use for stable emergency calls from each line trunk manager, and receiving a response from each line trunk manager. The received responses is then reported to a user. The method automatically de-activates the telecommunications equipment only when predetermined criteria related to the number of circuits in use are met. The above steps are repeated until the predetermined criteria are met and the telecommunications equipment is de-activated. <IMAGE>
