A calling search space comprises an ordered list of route
partitions that are typically assigned to devices.Calling search
spaces determine the partitions that calling devices search when
they are attempting to completea call.

spaces that devices, lines (DNs), translation patterns, or other
items are using.To find out which devices, lines, translation
patterns, or other items are using the calling search space,
choosethe Dependency Records from the Related Links drop-down list
box in the Calling Search Space Configurationwindow and click Go.
If the dependency records are not enabled for the system, the
