Dial Plan
Configuration File
Commands
This section provides the syntax and description of each command used
to create the information in the dial plan configuration file. In addition,
Table 22 categorizes and summarizes all the dial plan commands.
The Alphabetical List of Dial Plan Commands provides a detailed
description and syntax of each command. See “Dial Plan Command
Format” for a description of each component of dial plan commands.
To see how these commands are implemented in a dial plan, see “Sample
Solutions Using Dial Plan Configuration File Commands” later in this
chapter. You can also open and examine any of the dial plans shipped
with your NBX system.
Dial Plan Command
Summary
Table 22 provides a brief summary the dial plan commands. These
commands are listed and categorized in the order that they might
logically appear in a working dial plan.
See “List of Dial Plan Commands” for a complete list and description of
each dial plan command, including syntax and arguments.
Command syntax is case insensitive. In the sample dial plans (supplied
with the system), and in this section, commands use upper and lower
case to make them easier to read.
An entry that begins with “ n ” for example, n DialPlanID, indicates an
integer field. Integer IDs are used in many places, and must be within
the range 1 through 32768. The system reserves dial plan table ID
numbers 1, 2, and 3 for Internal, Incoming, and Least Cost Routing,
respectively.
An entry that begins with “ sz ” (for example, sz Description) indicates a
field composed of alphanumeric characters. Acceptable characters are
a through z, A through Z, and 0 through 9.
Each line in the configuration file must contain a complete command.
The NBX system reads all lines in the configuration file, and ignores only
those lines containing one or more syntax errors. The system treats any
line beginning with / (forward slash) as a comment and ignores it.
CAUTION: Do not place comments at the end of a command line.
