Notes:
•
The Dial Plan file must not contain overlapping prefixes. Attempting to
process an overlapping configuration by the DConvert utility results in an
error message specifying the problematic line.
•
The Dial Plan index can be selected globally for all calls (as described in
the previous procedure), or per specific calls using Tel Profiles.
•
It may be useful to configure both Dial Plan file and Digit Maps. For
example, the Digit Map can be used for complex digit patterns (which are
not supported by the Dial Plan) and the Dial Plan can be used for long
lists of relatively simple digit patterns. In addition, as timeout between
digits is not supported by the Dial Plan, the Digit Map can be used to
configure digit patterns that are shorter than those defined in the Dial
Plan or left at default (MaxDigits parameter). For example, the “xx.T” digit
map instructs the device to use the Dial Plan and if no matching digit
pattern is found, it waits for two more digits and then after a timeout
(TimeBetweenDigits parameter), it sends the collected digits. Therefore,
this ensures that calls are not rejected as a result of their digit pattern not
been completed in the Dial Plan.
•
By default, if no matching digit pattern is found in both the Dial Plan and
Digit Map, the device rejects the call. However, if you set the
DisableStrictDialPlan parameter to 1, the device attempts to complete the
call using the MaxDigits and TimeBetweenDigits parameters. In such a
setup, it collects the number of digits configured by the MaxDigits
parameters. If more digits are received, it ignores the settings of this
parameter and collects the digits until the inter-digit timeout configured by
the TimeBetweenDigits parameter is exceeded.
31.1.3.3 Obtaining IP Destination from Dial Plan File
You can use a Dial Plan index listed in a loaded Dial Plan file for determining the IP
destination of Tel-to-IP /IP-to-IP calls. This enables the mapping of called numbers to IP
addresses (in dotted-decimal notation) or FQDNs (up to 15 characters).

To configure routing to an IP destination based on Dial Plan:
1. Create the Dial Plan file. The syntax of the Dial Plan index for this feature is as
follows:
<destination / called prefix number>,0,<IP destination>
Note that the second parameter "0" is not used and ignored.
An example of a configured Dial Plan (# 6) in the Dial Plan file is shown below:
[ PLAN6 ]
200,0,10.33.8.52 ; called prefix 200 is routed to
10.33.8.52
201,0,10.33.8.52
300,0,itsp.com ; called prefix 300 is routed to itsp.com
2. Convert the file to a loadable file and then load it to the device.
3. Assign the Dial Plan index to the required routing rule:
a. Open the Outbound IP Routing table.
b. In the 'Destination Address' field, enter the required Dial Plan index using the
following syntax:
DialPlan<index>
Where "DialPlan0" denotes [PLAN1] in the Dial Plan file, "DialPlan1" denotes
[PLAN2], and so on.
