Integrate Vonage Service to Cisco VOIP System?

I am installing a new VOIP network (phones, routers, etc...) by Cisco routers 2800 series to our office. My question is:

How do I integrate Vonage to program the system to use the Vonage line when X area code is dialed. For exaple if I want all 011-xxxx calls to be routed to used the Vonage services instead of my local T1 lines.

Any ideas?

Assuming you are just plugging a Vonage adapter into your Cisco setup via something like an FX card, you would do this by simply setting up a custom dial plan on the Cisco. I have done this before on an Asterix box but I have never used a Cisco VoIP system before so I can't really give you specifics. I think the specifics of this would be more of a questions for a Cisco forum or mailing list, you would get better responses there on how to make the dial plan do what you want.

Thank you for your response. That was my first thought, however, I do not want to plug an analog FX line to an FX port on the cisco. I would like to acomplish the dial plan with the network parameters of Vonage. Is this posible. Can I get the Vonage service without the box.

You can probably do this via a softphone account, however the softphone account is an addon of $10.00 a month, only has 500 minutes, and doesn't have the free calling to Europe that your primary line would. I don't remember the specific SIP info for the softphone but it has been posted around here quite a few times recently and I am sure you could dig it up.
