Dial peer
This feature can be used to make dialing longer numbers easier by creating rules for them. The
following fields can be configured for creating dial rules:
Phone Number
— Enter the number to be dialed to trigger a match. There are two types of
matches; Full Match and Prefix Match. The Full Match will be triggered by the entire number
being dialed and must match exactly. The Prefix Match uses a wild card of T. For example;
entering 9T here will trigger the dial rule when 9 is dialed, followed by any other number. Prefix
Match will allow a maximum of 30 digits.
Destination
— Set the Destination address. This is used for IP direct calls.
Port
— Set the signal port. The default for SIP is 5060.
Alias
— This setting can replace a phone number, add numbers, delete numbers or replace
specified characters. Enter these commands to take advantage of the Alias:
•
all: xxx
— xxx will replace the phone number.
•
add: xxx
— xxx will be dialed before the phone number.
•
del
— the characters will be deleted from the phone number.
•
rep: xxx
— xxx will be substituted for the specified characters.
Suffix
—Digits entered here will be added to the end of a matching phone number.
Delete Length
— Set the number of digits to be removed from the beginning of the matching
phone number.
