  • 34

Routing a WebTic DID Number

A DID (Direct Inward Dialing) number is an inbound number that can be routed to any destination: SIP extension, trunk, IVR, voicemail.

Available routing types

TypeDescriptionUsage
SIP URIRoutes to a SIP extension or a PBX serverConnection to your 3CX, Asterisk
PSTN NumberForwarding to a standard phone numberForwarding to mobile/landline
SIP TrunkRoutes via a specific trunkFailover between carriers
IVRInteractive voice responseAutomatic welcome menu
QueueDistribution among agentsCustomer service, support

Configure routing in the WebTic client area

  1. Client Area → DID Service → Select the number
  2. Routing tab
  3. Choose the destination type
  4. For SIP URI: enter the destination SIP address (e.g. sip:extension@votre-pbx.example.com)
  5. For PSTN: enter the number in E.164 format (e.g. +33612345678)
  6. Save — takes effect in less than 5 minutes

Conditional routing (based on schedule)

Configure different routing rules depending on the time:

  • Opening hours (9h-18h Mon-Fri): Routes to the queue
  • Outside hours/weekend: Routes to voicemail or an out-of-office IVR
  • Public holidays: Specific route configurable with a calendar

Backup routing (failover)

Recommended configuration:
1. Primary destination: sip:pbx.votre-entreprise.com
2. Failover destination (if primary unreachable): +33612345678 (mobile)
3. Timeout before failover: 20 seconds

Testing the routing

# From Linux/Mac
sipsak -s sip:YOUR_DID@sip.webtic.online -v

# Practical test
Call your DID number from a mobile
Check that the call arrives at the right destination
Check the CDRs in the client area → CDR tab

Common problems

  • Call rings but no answer: PBX unreachable or port 5060 closed on the destination side
  • Unexpected voicemail: Check the priority order in the routing rules
  • Number not assigned (404 registration): Check that the DID is active and routed in the client area
