Dialing an Extension in another domain in the PBX


nebbin

Recommended Posts

We're offering video conferencing to customers importantly with local dial in number capability. Is it possible to send a conference dial in number to the extension our of conference facility PBX domain from an extension in a customer domain or from their auto attendant (DID). We could place a DID on the our extension in the conference facility domain connected to the video conference facility, but I think we want the conference facility extension to dial out to avoid carrier concurrent call restrictions on DID.

Any ideas on how we could approach this?

Thanks,

You can assign as many DID as you want to an extension. For example, you could assign one just for conferencing purposes. Depending where you are coming from, this "DID" can also contain also alphanumeric characters. So for example, you could use the alias name "conf-5434634564" as DID/alias name for the extension and then call in from a trunk that goes directly to the conference server, so that there are no carriers involved. The PBX will then take care about ringing the user up, including desktop phones, cell phones and apps.

Note: in this case, the conference is tied first in FreePBX (where the IVR integration takes place because we don't know how to do integration to conference App in Vodia). So we're forwarding the calls to FreePBX? Should we then not be using and extension DID in Vodia, but a trunk with a DID reference. Currently, we set up the DID in the conference domain, to be forward to a number which is identified as Trunk A in a dial plan? Are suggesting we can skip this and send directly to trunk identified as conference DID?

 

Also, we seem to have gotten Vodia to forward call into this conference (via FreePBX). Calling from a number set up as DID on our system seems to works. But calling from an external number (mobile); it would appear there is no sound for 40 seconds before FreePBX IVR can be heard. What would cause this?

Here's the log from the calls the delay (up to 40 seconds) media. It is because if trying to find where to place call:

In this case I'm call from a cell phone (4415362338)  to the conference room number via 1 441 400 7000 and then extension 4000:

Seemed to figured it out. The auto attendant number to select extension was being sent out directly on trunk to FreePBX, but putting pound sign after the number on the auto attendant, this behavior stopped, i.e. isn't set out as DMTF input over trunk. Trunk was expecting a PIN number...so if waited for the initial entry period to expire (i.e. incomplete input), then second as for input - hence initial delay for external calls.
