Just for fun, a few associations I’m part of want to set up our own IP-phone network, with our own phone numbers and such.
- Is this possible?
- How would one go about doing this?
- Does it have to be it’s own separate network or can it work via the internet without special setup beyond a public IP?
What do you mean by “a block of external phone numbers?” We’d like to simply have our own internal numbers ideally, nothing to connect to the regular phone network.
SIP providers usually sell numbers in contiguous series for businesses. For example, if your company buys a block of 50 numbers, the SIP provider then allocates XXX-5100 to XXX-5150.
But since you’re keeping this strictly internal, you don’t have to worry about that.
