How do I setup the pbx to allow calls to 811, 411, and such type services?

I've tried setting up an outbound rule for calls to a number length of 3 starting with prefix 8, and I cannot get the system to let me call 811.

Also didn't know if I could simply create a rule that just says "for length of 3" and no prefix to handle *11 calls? Feel like that might be a bad idea since the internal extensions are 3 digits long.

When I make a call this is what I get in the log:

Call or Registration to 811@([email protected]) has failed. xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx replied: 404 Not Found; from IP:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5060

Thanks.
 
Most probably your provider doesn't accept those special numbers, you need to check with them
 
A lot of services, using X11 codes are local (city/province/state), and many providers are considered national, so other than 911, most will probably not work. 411 is usually considered a "premium service" and may have to be enabled on your account as it is going to be billed at a much higher rate.
