code), any call to a number beginning with these digits will be made via the
elected connection.

offered by your fixed line network and VoIP providers, and determine which
connection should be used specifically for these countries/locations, e.g. a
dialling plan for the
France.
u
Use dialling plans to define that numbers starting with a call-by-call number
are always made via your fixed line network connection. To do so, enter the
call-by-call number in the
