  • Page 26: Configuring Accounts

    Figure 16 The Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430 allows accounts to be managed in either of two ways: Single Account Management - All of the ports on the MAX 410/420/430 can operate from a single account number and PIN, or Multiple Account Management - You can use a different account and PIN for each port.
  • Page 27: Multiple Account Management

    Only one call at a time can be made using any given account number. If a Net2Phone account number is entered for an FXO port in the Account Configuration Table, the account entered acts as a “default” account for the port. Charges incurred by callers through that port automatically accrue to this account.

    Net2Phone MAX 410/420/430 User Guide Section 4.5 – The Current Routing Table 4.5.1 Logical Port Numbering The difference between physical and logical port numbering is that, in logical port numbering, the FXS and FXO ports are counted separately, and the count starts from zero instead of one. So the first FXS port will be FXS 0, and the first FXO port will be called FXO 0.
