Configuring DNIS Routing
When an incoming call comes through a trunk with DNIS or DID numbers,
the system can route the call to the proper extension, Auto Attendant or
operator based on the DNIS or DID number collected.
Note: DNIS supports only incoming T1, PRI, andanalog DID trunks, and
in the case of T1 and PRI DNIS works with incoming trunks that
are not set up as tie trunks.
In order to locate an entry in the DNIS table for an incoming call, a full
match is required. If there is no match in the DNIS routing table set up in
this window, the system tries to match the number based on the DID
number entered in the General page of Extension Configuration (see
“Setting up Extensions” on page 191). If there is still no match, the system
routes the call according to the In Call Routing page defined in Trunk
Configuration.
Remote Ext. Length The length of extension digits at the remote location.
Valid entries are None - 7, with “None” meaning not
specified. Specifying the remote extension length is
optional but highly recommended, since this
information tells the system how long to wait for
another entry before outpulsing (sending the digits).
Dialing Scheme Overlapping (ATGN) is best used with analog
trunks to allow the terminal to omit part of the digits
required to complete a call while buffering the
remaining digits.
Enbloc, used with digital (ISDN) trunks, allows the
terminal to include all of the digits required to
complete a call.
