This guide provides a comprehensive overview of configuring the Vodia phone system with Telnyx phone service using Registration. It begins with setting up a Telnyx account, including purchasing a phone number and creating a connection with secure credentials. Once the connection is established, the guide walks you through provisioning your number and assigning it to the created connection. The outbound profile setup enables outbound calling via Telnyx, and Vodia PBX integration is simplified with automatic dial plans. Additionally, we cover routing incoming calls to specific extensions or external URLs, along with managing multiple DIDs through Vodia DID management.

Routing incoming calls

Navigate to your registered Telynx trunk and scroll down to set the incoming call under "Routing/Redirection"

Vodia supports the following inbound methods:

  • Send all calls to the destination request URL
  • Send all calls to a specific account
  • Send to a 10 Digit DID
  • Match extension after a prefix
  • Use a list of expressions

For this exercise, we are going choose,  "send all calls to a specific account." When you call into the system, all calls will go the specified extension.
