Re: [Asterisk-Users] 1800 DNIS and asterisk (HOW TO?)
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. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thu, May 5, 2005 6:19 pm 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".

It includes other bits of information like class of the calling line (if its a payphone there is a flag set, etc). It also includes ANI and other bits of info. IIRC its 128 characters. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

The last time I dealt with DNIS (admittedly, years ago) the provider sent the digits to ME via DTMF to tell ME what number was dialed to terminate on that line (you knowDialed Number Identification Service). Unless DNIS has turned into telcoBGP while I haven't been watching, what you're being asked to do doesn't seem quite right.
