3. Enter your Home Area Code and set the Dial Method. Most local calling
areas will set the Dial Method to Area Code NOT dialed (i.e. 7-digit dialing).
This sets up the digits the Allworx server sends for local calls, whether or not
the phone user dials the area code.
Notice the “all others” area code entry. Its Dial Method is permanently set to 1
+ Area Code dialed. This sets up the dialing rule for most long distance
calling.

select the Dial Method, and choose the Service Group.

After setting the Home Area Code, the Service Group routes 7-digit phone
numbers (nnn-nnnn) for selected for the Home Area Code.
If the Home Area Code has not been set, the system uses the All Truck
Devices Service Group to route 7-digit numbers.
14.5 Remote Sites as Services
The Allworx Server Administrator can select remote sites as services for handling
outbound calls. If the line selection process results in a routing call to a remote site, the
call connects using one of the remote sites’ outside lines. The dialing rules that are
configured on the remote site will determine which of its lines are used and how the
number will be dialed (e.g. with or without area code).
