[Asterisk-Users] 1800 DNIS and asterisk (HOW TO?)

[frank at keitz.org]

DNIS is dialed number identification service.  With toll free services,
the carrier will send DNIS digits (to your PBX) to identify which toll
free number was called.  The DNIS sent from the network to your PBX may be
4 digits long for example.  I suspect that you will need to build an
extension matching whatever DNIS they are going to send to your PBX when
the toll free number is dialed.  I'm guessing that is what they were
trying to explain.

Hi
I have applied for Qwest 1800 termination to a T1 ISDN PRI. They tell me
that I will have to program a predefined DNIS number on my switch.
According to them unless asterisk returns that DNIS number no call will
get through.

How do I program the DNIS, is it through zaptel.conf or some other way. Is
it required??. As per qwest "if the 8xx # is going to be routing to an
ISDN TG, DNIS is required".


Will appreciate any help
Regards
