ENTRYPOINT 

USER GUIDE

To view all dialplan configuration 
entries or create a new dial plan 
select the 

Dialplan configuration

 

menu item from the 

Services 

tab.

Dialplan Configuration

To view the dialplan entry details, click on the 
dialplan entry or on View/Edit of the respective 
dial plan. As has been discussed on the previous 
page four default services can be distinguished:

Direct Inwards Dialling

• 

Dial Extension (IVR)

• 

Menu

• 

TMS Corporate Directory (Phone book)

• 

For each default service the dialplan setup will 
be illustrated with an example on the following 
pages.

Note:

 Number matching is performed on dial 

plans from the top to bottom.
Each dial plan has the following general fields, 
i.e. Dialplan entry details:

Enabled.

• 

 If the box is checked the service 

becomes available.

Name.

• 

 The name of the dial plan as represented 

in the Dialplan Configuration overview.

Net type.

• 

 Inbound call net type; either H.324m, 

H.323, SIP or All. All means that independent 
of the net type the call is accepted on a match 
with the predefined Prefix and Suffix.

Prefix.

• 

 Number to which the first part of the 

inbound number (bnr) is matched. The prefixis 
specified in the dial plan entry. The prefix is 
stripped from the inbound number.

Suffix.

• 

 Number to which the last part of the 

inbound number (bnr) is matched. The suffix 
is specified in the dial plan entry. The suffix 
is also stripped from the inbound number. 
The part of the number which remains after 
stripping both prefix and suffix is called 
remainder (See also the “useremainder” 
option in a DID service).

Service.

• 

 Select one of the services as 

configured in the Services menu item (see the 
previous page for more on this).

About Dialplan Configuration

Dialplan Details

Dialplan Configuration Window

In the dialplan: When the 

Net Type

 is set to 

All

 make sure that the 

prefix and/or suffix is a valid H.323 prefix. 

Setting it to 

All

 means that the prefix will be registered to the 

gatekeeper. 

Example:

  

An existing dialplan entry:  
name: Test 123  
nettype: SIP  
prefix: [email protected]”  
service: FOO 

Is changed to:  
name: Test 123  
nettype: All  
prefix: ”[email protected]”  
service: FOO 
The H.323 registration will now fail, because”[email protected]” is not a 
valid H.323 prefix
