Virtual Extension Numbers
Groups use virtual extension numbers which do not have any restriction on their
content (alphanumeric characters from 1 to 20). Although most customers may
choose to use 1 or 2 digit numbers for group virtual extensions to keep their dial
plan reasonable for callers, longer digit strings can be useful for 'name dialling'.
To dial a User Group’s virtual extension, it is necessary to dial the 65 before the
virtual extension number.
For example, if a User Group’s virtual extension is 10, the group can be reached
by dialling 6510 from a SIP phone, the IVR, etc. An example for a name dialling
could be '65+PIZZA' with the corresponding virtual extension of 'PIZZA' being
74992.
In the illustration below, a User Group with extension 5200 was created.
For more information about the AastraLink Pro 160 dial plans, see Chapter 4, the
section, “Configuring Dial Plan Settings” on page 4-31.
