Identifies a provider circuit ID or multiple circuit IDs.
NOTE 1: The provider assigning this circuit identifier determines the content of this field in accordance with COMMON LANGUAGE standards maintained by Telcordia Technologies.
NOTE 2: When a component within the format is purposely omitted, the component should still be delimited and compressed to eliminate any spaces.
NOTE 3: All components within the ECCKT should be delimited by either virgules or periods.
NOTE 4: If all positions in a component within the ECCKT are not populated, the component should be compressed to eliminate any spaces.
NOTE 5: Use of ranging is based on customer/provider negotiations. Ranges should be shown within the appropriate component of the ID by specifying the lowest value of the component, hyphen, highest value of the component, e.g., trunk numbers 3500 through 3512 would be shown as 3500-3512.
NOTE 6: When disconnecting all circuits in a given account, “ALL” should be entered in this field, the BAN field populated, and the ACT field should contain a “D”.
NOTE 7: The format and structure of the field is defined in ANSI approved standards.
VALID ENTRIES:
1. COMMON LANGUAGE Special Service Circuit Codes (CLCI S/S Codes) - Telephone Number Format as defined in the ANSI approved standard, ATIS-0300097, Structure for the Identification of Communications Connections for Information Exchange or by COMMON LANGUAGE in BR-795-402-100. A brief summary of the format can be found in ATIS-0404000, Section 2.14.3.
USAGE: This field is required.
DATA CHARACTERISTICS: 53 alpha/numeric characters.
EXAMPLES: A 2 / S E G S / 2 0 1 / 9 8 1 / 3 5 0 0
A 2 / S E G S / 2 0 1 / 9 8 1 / 3 5 0 0 - 3 5 0 7
NOTE 1: The second example indicates the proper format for ranging line numbers.
