Why do I periodically get several repeated calls from "101"?
bradwn:
Thanks. I unchecked the Default box, entered the new string, saved, confirmed and rebooted, and it's back to Default again. tried it twice, no luck.

You have two options when maintaining an OBi:
1. Enable Auto Provisioning and do all configuration though the OBiTALK configuration facility.
2. Disable Auto Provisioning and do all configuration manually through the OBi itself.
It's one or the other - you can't mix them.

This is the number one newbie issue, comes up time and again. Those using the Expert configuration might be better served if the pop up notice when about to enter the Expert Configuration portal explained the above mentioned statement more clearly than it does now. The pop up just asks :
"Are sure you want to enter OBi Expert Configuration?"
Of course you can expect the user behavior will be to click on the OK button. At that moment it is not obvious to a new user that the configuration option on the OBi unit should not be used.
Should there be a better notification? Should there be a check box in the Expert configuration where the user deliberately checks to acknowledge that this will override the OBi unit. The offered solution solves some remote configuration issues and creates another annoying one.
bradwn:
If the question is "Should Obi users be able to block REPEATED, ANNOYING calls from non-human peers easily, without entering advanced configuration?" The answer is most certainly YES.
RegularJoe:
filtering or routing option.
can this process be used for "unknown" - this is the string I am getting from the scanners .
