OBiTALK Inbound Direct Dialing Authentication Parameter Guide:
Parameter Description Default Setting
AuthMethod The OBiTALK protocol allows incoming calls to indicate a
target number that is different from this device’s OBi
number. The device in that case will attempt to establish
and bridge the call to the target number according to the
rules configured in the trunk’s InboundCallRoute
parameter. Hence this device acts as a gateway and the
method is referred to direct dialing or 1-stage dialing
(versus 2-stage dialing via the Auto-Attendant). Since the
caller is not able to enter a PIN in such cases, an
automated method based on signalling protocol must be
used to authenticate the caller if authentication is
required. OBi device offers the following choices for this
purpose:
- None = Disable authentication
- HTTP Digest = Use HTTP Digest with User-ID and
Password pairs. Note that at least one of
AuthPassword
x ( x =1,2,3,4) must be specified,
otherwise authentication is disabled.
HTTP Digest
AuthUserID1 One of 4 user IDs for authenticating direct dialing callers
AuthPassword1 One of 4 passwords for authenticating direct dialing
callers
AuthUserID2 One of 4 user IDs for authenticating direct dialing callers
AuthPassword2 One of 4 passwords for authenticating direct dialing
callers
AuthUserID3 One of 4 user IDs for authenticating direct dialing callers
AuthPassword3 One of 4 passwords for authenticating direct dialing
callers
AuthUserID4 One of 4 user IDs for authenticating direct dialing callers
AuthPassword4 One of 4 passwords for authenticating direct dialing
callers
Note: If AuthPassword is specified, AuthUserID may be set to blank to let the device use the default value which is a special
hash of the AuthPassword. This is only applicable if the external gateway is also an OBi device that understands how to
generate the default AuthUserID using the same hash function.
