Making calls with VoIP and the fixed line network
Selecting and dialling a connection via its line suffix
You can configure up to six VoIP numbers on your phone in addition to the fixed
line network number and the Gigaset.net number. A (line) suffix is assigned to
each number (line) of your phone:
u
the fixed line network number has the suffix #0
u
VoIP numbers have the suffixes #1 to #6 (
u
and the Gigaset.net number has the suffix #9
When dialling, you can use this line suffix to specify the connection via which
you would like to call or be charged.
