The dot “.” can be used as a placeholder or multiple placeholders for any string. Example:
“12.” would match “123”, “1234”, “12345”, “12abc”, and so on.
x
The “x” can be used as a placeholder for any character. Example:
“12x” would match “121”, “122”, “123”, “12a”, and so on.
-
The dash “-” can be used to match a range of characters within the brackets. Example:
“[5-7]” would match the number “5”, ”6” or ”7”.
,
The comma “,” can be used as a separator within the bracket. Example:
“[2,5,8]” would match the number ”2”, “5” or “8”.
[]
The square bracket "[]" can be used as a placeholder for a single character which matches any of a set
of characters. Example:
"91[5-7]1234"would match “91
5
1234”, “91
6
1234”, “91

1234”.
()
The parenthesis "( )" can be used to group together patterns, for instance, to logically combine two or
more patterns. Example:
"([1-9])([2-7])3" would match “923”, “153”, “673”, and so on.
$
The “$” followed by the sequence number of a parenthesis means the characters placed in the par-
enthesis. The sequence number stands for the corresponding parenthesis. Example:
A replace rule configuration, Prefix: "001(xxx)45(xx)", Replace: "9001$145$2". When you dial out
"0012354599" on your phone, the phone will replace the number with "9001
235
45
99
". “$1” means 3
digits in the first parenthesis, that is, “235”. “$2” means 2 digits in the second parenthesis, that is, “99”.
