Manage the vPBX Internal Telephone Numbers

Contrary to the public vPBX telephone numbers the vPBX administrator can manage the internal vPBX phone numbers freely. He can create, edit and delete internal vPBX new phone numbers. A limitation of the number of internal vPBX telephone numbers can be specified by the provider, however.

Note	When an internal vPBX telephone number will be deleted then the private data of the subscriber will be gone, e.g. messages of the personal voicemail box, announcements, etc.

Create a Numbering Plan for the vPBX

It is recommended that for the vPBX a numbering plan is prepared. The numbering plan outlines the planned/available internal vPBX phone numbers. Ideally, it also describes the direct dialing in from the public to the internal vPBX telephone numbers. Based on the prepared numbering plan the internal vPBX telephone numbers will be generated.

Example of a vPBX numbering plan:

Generating Internal Telephone Numbers

The internal vPBX phone numbers of this numbering plan can be created as described in the chapter "Configuration" below.

For the above numbering plan example the internal vPBX telephone numbers are generated with the following input parameters "Create new Number"

10,11,21-24,30-34

Best Practice

An internal vPBX telephone number and its prepared and checked account configuration serve as a "Template" for new vPBX subscribers! For this purpose, first an internal vPBX telephone number must be created with a complete and checked configuration of its subscriber account. At the generation of further internal vPBX telephone numbers this "template number" can used in parameter "Template" . The "template number" subscriber account configurations are copied as far as useful to the new subscriber account.

Generate Direct Dialing In DDI

Automatic Creation of Direct Dialing In

When new internal vPBX telephone number is created the vPBX tries to create a direct dialing in from a public vPBX phone number to this new internal vPBX telephone number. For doing so the vPBX analyses if the digits of this new internal vPBX telephone number match (from the right) with a public vPBX telephone number.

In the above example this will succeed with the following internal vPBX telephone numbers:

public 012 34567 10 → intern 10

public 012 34567 11 → intern 11

public 012 34567 21 → intern 21

public 012 34567 22 → intern 22

public 012 34567 23 → intern 23

public 012 34567 24 → intern 24

A direct dialing in can be changed at any time. This proceeding is described on page "The Public vPBX Telephone Numbers and Direct Dialing In DDI" .

Manual Creation of Direct Dialing In

The configuration of a direct dialing in can be done manually at any time. This proceeding is described on page "The Public vPBX Telephone Numbers and Direct Dialing In DDI" .

From the above example, the following direct dialing in has to be done manually:

public 012 34567 77 → intern 30
