Internal Number Block¶
Assign an Internal Number Block to define the range of numbers a Customer can use for setting up SIP Extensions (see SIP Authentication for configuration details).
- Click next to Internal Number Block.
- The next available Number Block is assigned.
- Numbers from the assigned range is then available in Customer Auth for IP or SIP users, and in Class5 Conference.
Why Define Internal Number Blocks?
Within each Account are multiple Customers, each will likely have more than one Contact.
SIP Extensions are unique for the Account, not for individual Customers.
Without defined Internal Number Blocks, there is the risk of a Contact attempting to use an extension that's already in use by another Customer or Contact.
With Internal Number Blocks defined, each Customer will have a predetermined list of Usernames to select for SIP Authentication.
Number Range parameters
The Number Range Start and Block Size must be defined under Settings Options before an Internal Number Block can be assigned.
