Description |
Type | Specifies the type of short code that this object defines. Values:

(First) Short code | If the Type field is set to Range of external numbers, this field specifies the first short code in the range. Otherwise it specifies the short code that a subscriber dials. Specify a code consisting of 1-5 characters corresponding to telephone keys; the first character may be #, *, or one of the digits 0-9, and any remaining characters must be digits 0-9. This code must not match any other Short Code, Call Park Orbit Code or Intercom Code defined for this Dialing Plan. You are recommended not to define short codes beginning with the digit 0 (zero) because this may be confusing for users. If the Business Group includes SIP subscribers, the code or its initial digits must not match any Call Services access code. For example, do not configure a short code of *3 or *345 if you use *345 for an access code. |
