You may find that as your needs grow you want a new set of extensions. Before
you can assign a station to an extension, the extension must belong to a range that
is defined in the dial plan. Let’s add a new set of extensions that start with 3 and
are 4 digits long (3000–3999).

another extension. You can also establish a dial plan that allows users to dial, for

is particularly useful in the hospitality industry, where you want users to be able to
simply dial a room number to reach another guest. For more information, see
