More than one DID per trunk?

I have my FreePBX working, but I had a question about implementation.
I have a range of DIDs. They are sequential. Do I need to setup an incoming TRUNK for each DID or is there an easier way?
For example, I am currently setting up an SIP trunk per DID? Is this the most efficient way to do this?
THanks,
Peter

do u mean 'inbound routes'?
if so
use patterns if several dids have the same destination

if dids must go to different dest u have to create many inbound routes one per dest
SETUP - TRUNKS - EDIT SIP TRUNK
I have subscribed 10 DIDs from my local IP VoIP provider. This gives me 10 local Sydney DIDs.
Currently, I have setup 1 SIP Trunk per DID (local number). Therefore I have 10 trunks. Is there anyway to have 1 Trunk asscociate to this particular provider but have all 10 DIDs associated with the 1 trunk versus having 10 separate trunks.
it depends on if your
it depends on if your provider will allow a single registration but send you all your DIDs to it, assuming you register. Many do operate that way and it is much more convenient.
