How do route special calls so they can be made from a second OBI box ?
larrybob:
I have 2 obi boxes, one in California, one in Brazil.Often I need to make toll free calls to companies in Brazil. These calls can not be made from outside of Brazil. I have been calling the box in Brazil, and using the Auto Attendant to make these calls through the land line in Brazil. The calls are of the form 0800 xxx xxx. I believe there is a way to create a digit map and callroute in my California box that will route the call through my Brazil box automatically. Thanks for any help with this idea.

US OBi (200123456):
PrimaryLine -> DigitMap : (<n*>0800xxxxxx|...)
User Settings -> Speed Dials -> n : PP(ob200654321)
Brazil OBi (200654321):
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute : {200123456>(Mli):li},...
If you're not already using Single-Stage Dialing Through Any OBi Trunk, you will also need to make the following change:
In the PHONE Port and Auto Attendant DigitMap's, change [1-9]x?*(Mpli) to [1-9]x?*@@.
In the PHONE Port and Auto Attendant OutboundCallRoute's, change {([1-9]x?*(Mpli)):pp} to {([1-9]x?*@@.):pp}

I am confused by your answer. Can you define what is "n". Is an an interger?
can you explain the flow of the process, i understand that the primaryLine digitmap will add n* to the number if n is an interger say 14, then 14* will be added to the 0800 number so you will get 14*0800xxxxxxx.
then you will have speed dial 14: PP(ob20065432) . can you explain what this is?
I think the last part says that the number coming from box 200123456 will be sent out on the line trunk of box 200123456 after being processed by the digitmap of the line trunk of box 200123456.
Thanks

From page 151 of the OBi Device Administration Guide:
Using Speed Dial Number as Ad Hoc Gateway
If an external gateway does not require authentication, its access number can be stored in one of the 99 speed dial slots to allow ad hoc direct dialled gateway calls. To do this, the user dials the gateway’s speed dial, followed by a *, followed by the target number. That is <gateway-speeddial> * <target-number>. For example, the gateway access number pp(ob200333456) is stored at speed dial 8, and the user can dial 8*14085551234 to call 14085551234 using the given gateway.
Note: At the present time, only gateways that are accessed with an OBi number can be used this way.

That's correct. The {([1-9]x?*@@.):pp} rule in the PHONE Port OutboundCallRoute will send the call out the OBiTALK Service to the Brazil OBi addressed by Speed Dial 14.

Speed Dial 14 is a Speed Dial to the Brazil OBi using its OBiTALK number.

This OBiTALK Service InboundCallRoute rule resides in the Brazil OBi, so an incoming call from the US OBi will use the Brazil OBi LINE Port DigitMap and send the call out the Brazil OBi LINE Port.

Thanks Ron! I'm almost there.
(My Admin guide only goes to page 141.. I need to print out a new copy!)
On page 82 in my guide Voice gateways are explained. I guess in the U. S. box I could also accomplish this with a voice gateway? Is there any advantages to using either method?
