Authorization by PIN
Description
This function is for customers who can dial an access number and enter their device PIN number in order to get a dial tone and enter a destination number. It is used in some countries to get cheaper calls abroad.
The algorithm for the Authorization by PIN dial plan is seen in the following image:
The main steps to configure this functionality are:
- Create an appropriate Dial Plan.
- Assign an DID to this Dial Plan.
First, in the main Dial Plan window, click on 
New Dial Plan and enter values to create an Authorization by PIN dial plan:
IMPORTANT! Check the Use ANI? field – otherwise it will create a different type of Dial Plan.
- Ask Number/PIN (times) – how many times the user can try to enter the PIN.
- Ask destination (times) – how many times the user can try to enter the destination.
Click on to create this dial plan. The first step is complete – we have created our dial plan:
Now we need to assign a DID to this Dial Plan. To do this, in the DIDs edit window we assign the selected DID to the Dial Plan:
NOTE: If you want assign more then one DID you can use DID bulk management
In the main DIDs window we see that this DID is now pointing to our dial plan:
That's it. Very simple. Now, dialing 37063042439, we reach our Dial Plan. Here we hear a message that asks us to enter our device PIN. If the PIN is correct, we can dial the desired destination.
