areas within one country that are
covered by one or more telephone
exchanges. You may need this to return
local, national or international calls
received on the landline (for example,
area code 20 is added in front of the local
number if you are calling to London from
outside of the London area in UK).

identification and communication
purpose with each other on a network
utilizing the Internet Protocol standard.

Proper country code entry is required to
ensure landline functionality configured
