[cisco-voip] Unassigned extensions default

[Blomfield, Adam]

Marc,

If you create a translation pattern that turns 8XXX into 0 then all undefined extensions will end up at the operator (assuming your operator is 0). The routing will always take the most specific option, so an extension of 8001 will overrule the translation pattern, but in the absence of a defined DN it will kick in. Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Adam

Hey everyone,
 
Is there a way to tell my system that if a call comes in on an undefined extension to send it to a predetermined extension?
 
For example, I have a DID range 8xxx on my Call Mgr and a corresponding dial-peer on my H323 router.  I assign 8001 to a DN and now if you call it it will ring.  But if I don't assign 8002 to a DN, it will come up as out of service,,,I was wondering if there was a way short of assigning every DID to a translation rule or dummy phone if I can say to the call mgr that if a call comes in that it does not know to send it to our receptionist?
 
Thanks in advance
