Voice Office Application Suite Configuration Guide
The prefix specified in a dialing rule will precede the prefix specified
for a directory. For example, suppose that you have two directories, A
and B. A call to directory A requires the prefix "5" and a call to
directory B requires the prefix "6". All calls require a "9" to be dialed
first, so the dialing rule specified on the IP Phone page is "9". Thus,
the number dialed for a call to directory A would be "95number" and
the number dialed for a call to directory B would be "96number".
Dialing rules are used by the Application Gateway when it looks up LDAP
information for Zone Paging and Broadcast Server. The Application
Gateway reconstructs the full number from the extension and the dialing
rules and then looks up the department for Zone Paging and the
department and user name for Broadcast Server.
To add dialing rules:
Go to the Operation > Voice Office > IP Phone page.
If your telephone system does not need to dial the full telephone number
that is stored in a directory (perhaps for internal extensions), specify how
the number should be trimmed.
