Description Settings
If you include the Blocking and Abbreviated Dialing
Rules information in the Cisco-provided .xls data
configuration file, you can import the Blocking and
Abbreviated Dialing Rules information from the
Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file.
After you click Import Blocking/Abbreviated Dialing
Rules, you must select where the Cisco-provided .xls
data configuration file is located. The Cisco-provided
.xls data configuration file must exist on the desktop
of your PC or on a USB flash drive. After you select
the location, the system attempts to import the
blocking and abbreviated rules. Cisco Business
Edition 3000 displays a report that indicates whether
the insertion succeeded or failed. The report indicates
the number of Blocking/Abbreviated Dialing Rules
that are imported successfully, the number of rules
that failed to get imported, and the reason why the
import failed. If errors (failures) occur, you can save
the errors to a .csv file so that you can correct the
Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file. After you
update the Cisco-provided .xls data configuration file,
attempt the import again through the Dial Plan pages.
Clicking Import Blocking/Abbreviated Dialing Rules
imports Blocking/Abbreviated Dialing Rules if they
are all in the Cisco-provided .xls data configuration
file; you can click the button in either Abbreviated
Dialing page to import both users and phones. (The
system always imports all at the same time if all are
in the file.)
You can import Blocking/Abbreviated Dialing Rules
from any of the tabs on
Connections > Dial Plan
page.

Abbreviated Dialing Settings
Abbreviated dialing allows you to configure system wide abbreviated dial rules through which the users can
reach external numbers without dialing the complete number of the recipient.
Prior to Release 8.6.4, when you modify an outside dial code, the abbreviated dial rules patterns are updated
automatically to use the new outside dial code. With Release 8.6.4, a modification in outside dial code will
not update the abbreviated dial rules. You must update the abbreviated dialing rules manually.
