Manually Assigning Phone Numbers to Users

You can manually assign phone numbers that you do not wish to be automatically assigned. Using this option, you can assign a Voice Routing Policy to the phone number. Once added, the user is assigned to a PSTN Gateway and Site Location according to the Voice Routing Policy. In this example, the user is assigned the default 'Unrestricted' policy which is associated with a PSTN Gateway sub domain configured with Automatic DNS provisioning in the customer onboarding.

To assign a phone number:
1. In the Customer portal Users view page, select a user, right-click and choose Assign Phone Number.

For Direct Routing and Operator Connect Pro services only, phone numbers can also be assigned using the Edit User option (see Manually Applying M365 User Policies).

Enterprise Voice check box is enabled automatically when you start typing the number digits.

2. Start typing to enter the phone number that you wish to assign to the user, notice that tel:+ is added to the string, and then click OK.

Phone number format – tel:+xxxxxxxx

The valid syntax rules are displayed in the dialog below.

3. Configure the OnlineVoiceRouting Policy and click OK:
Unrestricted (default)
Global
Custom
4. In the Users page, select the user.

Note that the user has been configured with the following:

Online Voice Routing Policy 'Unrestricted
Online PSTN Gateway
Site Location

A dedicated PSTN Gateway is not required on the customer tenant; the customer is assigned the Derived Trunk FQDN of the Service Provider SBC device. Unless the customer is using their own SIP Trunk provider (BYOC).

5. Right-click the user and choose Edit.

Note the highlighted configuration in the figure above:

PureOnlineTeamsOnlyUser (configured by default).
