Inbound Phonebook
1. Open the MultiVOIP program. (Start | MultiVOIP xxx | Configuration)
2. Go to Phone Book | Inbound Phonebook | Add Entry.
3. In the “Remove Prefix” field, enter your local calling code (area code, country code, city code, etc.)
preceded by any other “access digits” that are required to reach your local site from the remote VOIP
location (think of it as though the call were being made through the PSTN – even though it will not be).

5. In the “Channel Number” field, enter “Hunting.” A “hunting” value means the VOIP unit will assign the call
to the first available channel. If desired, specific channels can be assigned to specific incoming calls (i.e., to
any set of calls received with a particular incoming dialing pattern).
6. In the “Description” field, it is useful to describe the ultimate destination of the calls. For example, in a New
York City VOIP system, “incoming calls to Manhattan office,” might describe a phonebook entry, as might
the descriptor “incoming calls to NYC local calling area.” The description should make the routing of calls
easy to understand. For this, 40 characters are the maximum.
