Conference rooms can be accessed internally by using a star code or externally by using a phone number.


Methods
  • Hosted PBX Extension: Dial *2663 (*conf) from any phone
  • ATA/Gateway on a SIP Trunk: Dial *2663. Some gateways may require that a dial pattern for *2663 be added.
  • IP PBX on a SIP Trunk: Create an outbound route for *2663 and route the call out the trunk.
  • Externally via a Phone Number: Activate a phone number for the customer. Select the 'Advanced' routing method, set the action to 'Other' and enter "*2663" in the destination.
