32 TALKSWITCH USER GUIDE • NORTH AMERICA
Activate phone numbers as required. If you had previously assigned numbers
in the first slot for each of the VoIP numbers and performed a firmware
update, the new layout will place these numbers in VoIP slots 1,4,7 and 10.
Phone numbers need to be associated with the TalkSwitch network or a
Service Provider network.
In the “TalkSwitch Profile” section:
All VoIP numbers are active when the system is first configured. Phone
numbers need to be assigned so that inbound VoIP calls can be handled
according to the configuration parameters set for VoIP numbers under the
Call Handling section 2.3.5. Phone numbers can be one or more digits in
length.
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.
