<DIV>Hi Kuku,</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>DID stands for Direct Inward Dialing. It allows someone from around the world to dial directly to one of your extensions using a usual telephone number as if that numer was directly attached to your telephone (soft or hard).</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Try to google "Direct Inward Dialing" to get more details.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
