Phone numbers 250-299 have special functionality with TalkSwitch. These
numbers can be dialed directly from any extension or Auto Attendant and
are routed automatically via VoIP to the destination with the number
assigned to one of its ports. Part of the role of an administrator is to keep
track of all phone numbers assigned to each location to prevent duplicate
numbers in multiple locations. We recommend that you use these numbers as
it will facilitate calling from extensions and the Auto Attendants.
In the “Service Provider Profile” section
All VoIP numbers are active when the system is first configured. Phone
numbers need to be entered exactly as provided by the Service Provider. For
the United States and Canada, the Country code is 1. Enter the area code and
phone number.
Enter a Username and Password. Every phone number has a unique Username
and Password.
