Call Control
This chapter shows you how to control outgoing calls and incoming calls.
Inbound Routes
When a call comes into S-Series from the outside, S-Series needs to know where to direct it. It can
be directed to an extension, a ring group, a queue or a digital Receptionist (IVR) etc.
Go to
Settings > PBX > Call Control > Inbound Routes
to edit inbound routes.
Please check the inbound route configuration parameters below.
1) Route Name
Give this inbound route a brief name to help you identify it.
2) DID Pattern
Match the DID Pattern in this field to pass incoming call through. Leave this blank to match calls
with any or no DID info. You can use a pattern match to map a range of numbers. Only Peer to
Peer Trunk, BRI Trunk, SIP Trunk need to configure this option.
In patterns, the following characters have special meanings:
Table 6-1 DID Patterns Description
Patterns
X
Refers to any digit between 0 and 9
Z
Refers to any digit between 1 and 9
N
Refers to any digit between 2 and 9
[###]
Refers to any digit in the brackets, example [123] is 1 or 2 or 3.
Note that multiple numbers can be separated by commas and ranges of numbers can
be specified with a dash ([1.3.6-8]) would match the numbers 1,3,6,7 and 8.
. (dot)
Wildcard. Match any number of anything.
!
Used to initiate call processing as soon as it can be determined that no other matches
are possible.
If you want to route consecutive DID numbers to a range of consecutive extensions directly
through SIP, SIP Peer to Peer, IAX Peer to Peer trunk, you need to enter the DID number range
(separate the first number and the last number by “-”), choose the Destination as Extension
Range, and fill in the relevant extension numbers (separated by “-”).
