Access Classes
It is possible to define access rules for the existing telephones. For that it's necessary to click on the connection Insert and fulfil the following fields (Figure 4.103):
Name
: The access class name;
Unlock code
: Code to deactivate temporarily a access class;
Prefixes
: It allows to add to the authorized prefixes list the prefixes which may be used in the telephones under the access rules. By default all the calls are blocked except the Authorized prefixes;
Numbers
: In Politics by default it is possible to block the traffic for any number or let it pass by default (Block/Authorize, respectively) and then, if there are some exceptions, it is possible to indicate an exception number by line. You can use wildcards at the exceptions;
Domains

Speed Dial
The speed dial allows the association between an internal address and a telephone external to the organization. That is to say, the users call an internal number (or address) and this is associated to a telephone external to the organization. Example: An external alternative address of the telephone 44@domain.com is created for the destiny address john.smith@another-domain.com. This way, whenever you dial internally 44, the call shall be re-addressed to john.smith@another-domain.com.
Choosing Speed Dial
and clicking Insert
we have two fields (Figure 4.105):
Phone Address
: Will be the external number or address to call;
Speed Dial
: The extension for speed dial.
Note: If you wish you may add another speed dial, simply click on the Add
button. Click on the Remove
button to erase the speed dial.
If the IPBrick has routes, it's possible to insert in speed dial field legacy PBX extensions, GSM and PSTN numbers etc.
