bly doesn’t require a long distance charge. Instead of adding a rule for
every extension or phone number you call, specify the pattern in this
rule similar to the example. All patterns begin with the underscore “_”
character. There are special characters which can be used in patterns:
–
X - Any digit from 0-9
–
Z - Any digit from 1-9
–
N - Any digit from 2-9
–
[1,2,3,6-9] - Any digit within the brackets, in this instance 1, 2, 3, 6,
7, 8, 9.
–
. - The period is the wildcard which will match anything remaining.
For example, _9011. matches anything starting with 9011.
–
! - The exclamation point is a wildcard which causes the matching
process to complete as soon as it can determine that no other
matches are possible.
Send to Local Destination - Calls matching the pattern specified will
be routed to the destination specified in Destination if this checkbox
is selected.
Destination - Specify a destination, such as voicemail or main menu,
for calls to be routed to when the Send to Local Destination check-
box is selected.
Use Trunk - Specify the trunk through which calls, matching the spec-
ified pattern, will be placed.
Strip - This option gives you the ability to remove specified number of
digits from the front of the call string before the call is dialed and
placed through the trunk specified in Use Trunk.
