At first you need to assign unique reference name to the new Outgoing 
rule 

 

In the second field, “Pattern” standard telephony regular expression 
patters needs to be specified: 

X ... Any Digit from 0-9 

  Z 

... 

Any 

Digit 

from 

1-9 

  

N ... Any Digit from 2-9 
[12345-9] ... Any Digit in the brackets (in this example, 
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 
. ... Wildcard, matches anything remaining; i.e. _9011. Matches 
anything starting with 9011 (excluding 9011 itself) 
! ... Wildcard, causes the matching process to complete as soon as it 
can unambiguously determine that no other matches are possible 
For example, the extension _NXXXXXX would match normal 7 
digit numbers, while _1NXXNXXXXX would represent a three 
digit area code plus phone number, proceeded by a one. 

 

“Destination” field should be used only if you want to invoke some local 

application or if the call should be processed in some special way. 

 

 “Use trunk” indicates which trunk should be used to handle this call (ie: 

“bri2”). 

 

“Strip” indicates how many proceeding digits should be removed from a 

dialstring.  

 

“Failover trunk” indicates if there is an alternative trunk to be used in case 

if the primary trunk is not available (in use for example). 

 

3.5. Dial plans 

 

 

 

The “DialPlan” page allows you to define different Classes of Service (Dial 
Plans) and associate them with one or more Outgoing Calling Rules defined 
in the previous step. Also, predefined local services/application can be 
associated with each Class of Service.
