Digital Voice Number ??

Archived from groups: comp.dcom.voice-over-ip (More info?)

I have been trying to sign up for service with a VOIP provider. I am
supplying my own ATA (Sipura SPA-2002) The supplier informs me that besides
a MAC number I must provide a Digital Voice Number. The MAC is no problem
but there is no mention of such a thing as a Digital Voice Number in the
literature that came with the ATA. Can someone please tell me what this is
and, mora important, how to get it? Thanks

Could the provider be making up a different name for the
fully-qualified-telephone-number (the one that looks like an email
address).

<telephone-number>@hostname.and.domain

I know ipkall effectively asks that question, but they sugar-coat it a
bit so as to not scare folks away.
