2. On the Add Blacklist page, set the blocked numbers.
   • Name: Set the blacklist name.
   • Number: Enter the blocked numbers.Note: Besides entering specific numbers, you can also use patterns to block a range of numbers. For example, entering 18. will block the numbers that start with digits 18.
   • Type: Select the type of blocked numbers.
     • Inbound: The blocked numbers could not reach your extension.
     • Outbound: You cannot call the blocked numbers.
     • Both: You cannot call the blocked numbers and the blocked numbers could not reach your extension.
3. Click Save and Apply.
