Phonebook Rules:
To meet the requirements of communicating with trunk Gateway or other applications, Phonebook has following characteristics to be noticed.
When the destination side is a terminal, for ex: IP Phone or soft phone, e164 number stands for exact destination phone number.
When the destination side is a Gateway, for ex: T1/E1 Gateway, e164 phone number stands only for Gateway prefix. That is to say, users have to continue to dial destination number, following the prefix number. A example is as below:
A Æ Micronet FXO Gateway
In Phonebook, there’s a record:
Index | Name | IP | E164 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1 | B_Gateway | 192.168.1.2 | 0 |
|
|
|
|
B Æ E1 trunk Gateway, which connects to PSTN with E1 PRI.
If users want to make a call to PSTN number “82265699”, they have to pickup one of the phone connected to Micronet FXO Gateway, and then dial “082265699”. After receiving the complete dialed number, Micronet FXO Gateway will search for its Phone Book, find “0” as matched prefix, and then dial out to B’s IP address directly with destination e.164 (phone number)
