CC new extension to OBi Phone 2?

<< < (2/2)

azrobert:
Define extension 102 in CC.
Define a Call Treatment to route telescammers to extn 102.
Register a SP trunk to the new extension on CC.
In X_InboundCallRoute for this SP: ph2

or

Add your Whitelist to a DigitMap in your OBi202.
In X_InboundCallRoute route white list to ph and everything else to ph2.
There is a max number of characters for a DigitMap, but I think you can setup several User Defined DigitMaps.

Thanks for your help.   I figured it out using OBiTALK and CC's Account Portal. In CC's Account portal, I made an extension 102, put in a password and copied its username (1777myacct#102).  Then I opened OBiTALK and opened the currently-unused SP3.  I set it up as a CC account with 1777myacct#102 as my Callcentric Number and entered my password.  I then set it up to receive calls on Phone 2.  Then I made a Call Treatment to forward calls meeting the criteria to extension 102.  I then tested it by calling my main number from a number not on my whitelist, and the phone plugged into Phone 2 on the OBi rang.  

Geeeeez.  In the time it took to write this, the phone connected to the OBi's Phone 2 rang twice.  Going to Callcentric's Reports and Googling the numbers, both were known scammers according to 800notes.com.  It turns out one of the calls was placed directly to my new CC local number.  Crap, that number is already on the scammer's radar.  Turning back on the Call Treatment that sends them to "Lenny".

Now I have a choice of whether to rout scammers to "Lenny" or to my answering machine with a Lenny-type conversation that has pissed off scammers every time it was employed.

Thanks again for your help.

Is it "lenny@sip.itslenny.com" without the quotes?  And how can I call this "number" to see if it still even works.


Yep.......exactly what I put in my post.

Well a true test would be to make the phone book entry, group, and call treatment using a cell phone or some other number and then call your CC number from that number and see what happens.

If you just want to test the number make a speed dial from the OBi dashboard. Make it look like this: spx(lenny@sip.itslenny.com) where "x" is your CC SP slot number. If you put it in speed dial number 5, dial 5# to dial it.

I figured it out by trial and error and it worked first time. Just called my main CC number from my GV number (that's not on the whitelist) and got Lenny.  Priceless!

Thank you for your help.
