When you register a number at e164.org, it first asks for the URL, and it will place a test call to verify it. Since my PBX is at a static address, I used <DID number>@pbx.<domain>.com:5080, since that's what the FreeSwitch default is. I opened port 5080 in the firewall to allow incoming SIP calls. Since it was already working through flowroute.com, the appropriate media ports were already open.
Next, to verify a number, e164.org will call your number via the PSTN. By testing with a POTS line, I knew e164.org would be sending +12243336164 as the caller-ID number. Therefore, I short-circuited the route to our IVR in the public dialplan to route calls from that number directly to my extension:
<action application="transfer" data="523 XML default"/>
</condition>
</extension>
</include>
After e164.org had placed the SIP test call, I pressed the "next" button and a few minutes later it called through the PSTN. I picked up the phone and listened very carefully, because it only says the numbers once, and it says them very quickly. I wrote the PIN down and entered it in the "My Numbers" page. I also added my white pages information while I was there.
Next, I set up the outgoing dialplan to use the e164.org ENUM service exactly as specified at
To test it out, I used the e164.org white pages lookup to find somebody in my same city and gave him a call. It routed the call directly via SIP, bypassing the PSTN.
