Configuring DID Interfaces
Direct Inward Dialing (DID) enables external callers to direct-dial an internal extension on your PBX, without operator
assistance. This service makes use of DID trunks provided by the local central office (CO), which forward only the last three to
five digits of a phone number to your PBX. If, for example, a company has a PBX with extensions 555-1000 through 555-1999,
and an external caller dials 555-1234, the local CO forwards 234 to the PBX. The PBX then rings extension 234.
When this feature is configured, a voice-enabled Cisco router can receive calls from a DID trunk and connect them to the
appropriate extensions.
The DID feature makes it seem that all extensions on a PBX have direct lines to the PSTN. This is accomplished without the
expense associated with connecting each extension to the PSTN. Besides saving the cost of an operator, DID lets callers feel that
they are calling specific individuals, rather than calling a large company.
Figure 23 shows a hypothetical topology in which a user connected to the PSTN (User A) dials various numbers; this user is
then connected to the appropriate extensions on a PBX.
