New/Defined DIDs

A DID can be configured to accept voice, fax or try to guess the calling party (if voice of fax).
Autodetection relies on signalling at the start of the call and cannot be always reliable.
The time to detect the fax tone can be set in Admin/Settings page.

The number must be entered in three parts, starting with international prefix, area code and number. Even if your telephone standard doesn't allow the usage of any “short” form for dialing the number, requesting for example, to dial always the area code, the number is requested to be entered this way. Using the Admin/Settings menu is possible to enable the use of a “single box DID” to just enter the number in a single box, but this is highly discouraged.
It is possible to use regular expression inside the number. In case multiple regular expressions match the number dialed, the ordering is based alphabetically on the Comment.
Comment is just a comment and it is not used in any way.
Max channels allows you to set the maximal number of channels available on the DID. Any additional call received will be refused with a busy signal.
Use CNAM service allows you to assign the Caller ID Name based on this popular service offered in most countries. You can configure the service in Admin/Settings page.
Use as Emergency CallerID permits you to mark this DID as one of the available to be used when an emergency call is dialed. Due to the fact the emergency numbers are not standard among all countries, it is your duty to assign the “emergency flag” to the dialing rules for emergency numbers. When a call is dialed and it is using a dialing rule marked as “emergency”, the Caller ID number used for the extension is the one defined as “Emergency” among the ones with this flag set. Inbound Call Rate allows you to define a call rate for inbound calls.
