Phone number ranges define a set of available phone numbers. A phone number range can comprise up to 10,000 numbers.
A phone number range number contains the following:
- Country
o Country it belongs to
- Area Code (optional) and main number
NOTE:
For an example phone number 1-555-345-9870:
|
1 |
is country code |
|
555 |
is area code |
|
34598 |
is start number |
|
70 |
is phone number variable part |
- Number Range Start and End
o Beginning and end of number range.
IMPORTANT:
If you are using the extension feature, then the phone number range start and end value length must be the length of the desired extension.
Example: for a number range +11111111 to +11111199 that requires a 4-digit extension.
Example: a number range would have a start of 1111 and a number range end of 1199, the E164 number would be from tel:+11111111;ext=1111 to tel:+11111199; Ext=1199.
