The Voxeo hosted environment is extremely flexible in how calls are delivered. The majority of customers can utilize Voxeo's already deployed and proven SIP/VOIP vendors. However, for some customers, having the control of deciding over which carrier their calls are routed, and the provisioning timeline of the number, is beneficial. A specific example is a service that provides for every customer on-boarded their own dedicated phone number. For this, control over the actual provisioning of the phone number might be crucial to an interface on your side performing the automated API-based provisioning.
How to route calls via SIP
Every application deployed on the Voxeo hosted network, be it Staging or Production, comes equipped with a SIP number for which calls can be terminated.
sip:9991111111@sip.voxeo.net
Above is an example of a number provisioned for a Staging application. Now, if you had a SIP/VOIP vendor providing you with a real local DID (such as 4071111111), they would simply need to point all traffic intended for this number to the above address and you are now terminating calls in a Bring Your Own SIP (BYOS) fashion. In fact, many such vendors will allow you means to provision the destination of the number through a web interface, further simplifying process.
The same rules that apply for integration of a SIP/VOIP vendor in a Premise install apply to Voxeo's hosted network. For the requirements, please see this link:
