3 Click the File menu and select Save As.
4 From the list box at the top of the Save As window, select the destination
folder.
5 In the File Name text box, replace the default file name with a new name.
The sample default files include examples of such things as timed routes
and pretranslators. Verify that you rename the new configuration file with
a unique file name so that you do not overwrite the sample default file.
6 Click Save.
This section describes how to test the currently loaded dial plan by
placing a simulated call.
Even if the NBX system is completely installed and operational, a test
places a simulated, not an actual call.
Example: If you have an entry in the dial plan for digit sequences starting
with 91, with MIN and MAX set to 5, and you test the sequence 9123,
the dial plan test reports an insufficient number of digits. However, in
actual operation, the NBX system would time out waiting for the fifth
digit, and then attempt to place the call. Assuming that the outside line
prefix is 9 (such as in the United States), this situation would obtain an
outside line (9) and then dial the numbers 123.
