Just Bought OBi202 Need Help

(1/2) > >>

pwnage:
I need to know how I can block specific numbers from being dialed out and from ringing in. For instance I dont want to be able to call my ex at xxx-xxx-xxxx as well as I dont want her to be able to call me. I heard that this device supported this type of functionality and was wondering if someone could show me how to use this.

giqcass:
That can be accomplished with the incoming and outgoing dial plans.

Replace the xxxxxxxxxx in the code below with your exes number. I suggest adding it both with and whitout the leading 1 to be sure.
Put it in your inbound call route and outbound call route at the very front.
The inbound call routes are located under the service providers.  The Outbound call routes are located under the physical devices.
{(xxxxxxxxxx|1xxxxxxxxxx):},



pwnage:
How many numbers can be blocked using this? Can you block a whole range? And add a whitelist/?

{(xxxxxxxxxx|1xxxxxxxxxx):},


I think that this would be a shorter equivalent to the above string:

{(1?xxxxxxxxxx):},

pwnage, what would a whitelist mean to you in this context? Would this be a list of the only numbers that you would permit dialing to? That could be done, but it would be unusual.

Regarding how big the blacklist could be, it is limited to how many characters fit in the string. The shorter each is written, the more fit.

So several things are possible.

RFord:
You did not indicate who your VOIP provider is.  Blocking incoming calls is best handled at the provider level.  GV, Callcentric, VOIP.ms, Anveo, etc., allow you to block calls incoming calls in many formats or send these calls to voice mail or route them to other number(s).

If you need to block a outgoing number (or a series of numbers), the syntax is:

|!(1abcxxxxxxx)| or |!(1abcxxxxxxx|1abcxxxxxxx)| or , where abc is the area code, xxxxxxx is the digits associated with the block numbers

This would be incorporated into the ITSP Profile X>>>General>>>DigitMap
