Inbound Permissions

Inbound Permissions allow you to control how inbound calls to this tenant are handled based on Caller ID patterns. Rules defined here apply only to calls arriving on DIDs that belong to this tenant.

Enabling Inbound Permissions

Inbound Permissions checking is disabled by default to avoid unnecessary overhead during call processing. When disabled, a warning banner is displayed on the Inbound Permissions screen.

To enable checking, your system administrator must set the Dialplan Variable TL_CHECK_INBOUND_PERMISSIONS to 1 in Dialplan Variables.

Note

Inbound Permissions can also be configured system-wide. System-wide permissions have higher priority and are checked first. Tenant-level permissions are only checked if the call passes the system-wide check.

Caller ID Pattern(s). A number or pattern to match inbound caller IDs. Accepts multiple values separated by a comma. Prefix a pattern with _ to use dialplan pattern matching:

• X — matches any digit 0-9
• Z — matches any digit 1-9
• N — matches any digit 2-9
• [13-5] — matches any digit in the brackets
• . — matches one or more characters

Action. What to do when a caller ID matches the pattern:

• Deny — reject the call
• Allow — let the call through
