An extension number that enables calls to access a vector for processing. A

Number (VDN)

VDN is not assigned an equipment location. A vector is assigned to a VDN. A

 

VDN can route calls to a vector when the calls arrive over an assigned

 

automatic-in trunk group or when calls arrive over a dial-repeating (DID)

 

trunk group and the final digits match the VDN.

 

The VDN by itself may be dialed to access the vector from any extensions

 

that are connected to the switch.

VDN Calls-Counted

Also known as counted-calls to VDN and active VDN calls. A Call Vectoring

 

capability available with G3V4 or later switches. Counted-calls to VDN is a

 

parameter of the “go to step” and “go to vector” commands that provides

 

conditional branching to a different step in the same vector or to a different

 

vector based on the number of incoming trunk calls a VDN is currently

 

processing.

VDN skill preference

Up to three skills can be assigned to a VDN. Calls use VDN skills for routing

 

based on the preference that you administer in the vector. VDN skill

 

preferences are referred to in the vector as “1st,” “2nd,” or “3rd.”
