User's Manual 61. Dialing Plan Notation for Routing and Manipulation
61 Dialing Plan Notation for Routing and
Manipulation
The device supports flexible dialing plan notations for denoting the prefix and/or suffix
source and/or destination numbers and SIP URI user names in the routing and
manipulation tables.
Note: When configuring phone numbers or prefixes in the Web interface, enter them
only as digits without any other characters. For example, if you wish to enter the
phone number 555-1212, it must be entered as 5551212 without the hyphen (-). If the
hyphen is entered, the entry is invalid.
Table 61-1: Dialing Plan Notations for Prefixes and Suffixes
Notation Description
x (letter "x") Wildcard that denotes any single digit or character.
# (pound symbol)
 When used at the end of a prefix, it denotes the end of a number. For
example, 54324# represents a 5-digit number that starts with the digits
54324.
 When used anywhere else in the number (not at the end), it is part of the
number (pound key). For example, 3#45 represents the prefix number
3#45.
 To denote the pound key when it appears at the end of the number, the
pound key must be enclosed in square brackets. For example, 134[#]
represents any number that starts with 134#.
* (asterisk symbol)
 When used on its own, it denotes any number or string.
 When used as part of a number, it denotes the asterisk key. For
example, *345 represents a number that starts with *345.
$ (dollar sign) Denotes an empty prefix for incoming IP calls that do not have a user part in
the Request-URI, or for incoming Tel calls that do not have a called or
calling number. This is used for the following matching criteria:
 Source and Destination Phone Prefix
 Source and Destination Username
 Source and Destination Calling Name Prefix
Range of Digits
Note:
 Dial plans denoting a prefix that is a range must be enclosed in square brackets, e.g., [4-8] or
23xx[456].
 Dial plans denoting a prefix that is not a range is not enclosed, e.g., 12345#.
 Dial plans denoting a suffix must be enclosed in parenthesis, e.g., (4) and (4-8).
 Dial plans denoting a suffix that include multiple ranges, the range must be enclosed in square
brackets, e.g., (23xx[4,5,6]).
 An example for entering a combined prefix and suffix dial plan - assume you want to match a rule
whose destination phone prefix is 4 to 8, and suffix is 234, 235, or 236. The entered value would
be the following:
.
[n-m] or (n-m) Represents a range of numbers.
Examples:
