is the case would you use DNIS vs DID?


DID is a type of line and a type of service.

DID the line is inbound only and has traditionally been used for fax servers
and things like that.

DID the service can be sent over an E&M Wink T-1 as DTMF and also as
D-Channel information down a PRI.  Technically I think that it is called
DNIS on an E&M T-1 but it is functionally the same thing.
