• Screening Services—Use screening services to specify calls not to route and to clear based on origination CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) such as calling number. For example, use screening to clear all calls from a particular subscriber who is behind on bill payments.
  
  
• Blocking Services—Use blocking services to block calls based on destination CPEs as well as origination properties of the call (called number, for example).
  
  
• Call Type Filtering Services—Use call type filtering services to define the call types that will be handled for non-subscribers or casual calls.

Call Type Filtering Service

The
