Answer
Three digit extension numbers that are reserved for 8x8
services and should not be assigned to any user or object. This includes, but
not limited to, Ring Groups, Auto Attendants, etc.
We recommend using a minimum of 4-digit extension numbers
for internal numbering plans. If this is not possible, and 3-digit extension
numbers are required, avoid using any of the following extension numbers for
internal numbering plans. Otherwise, issues may occur.
