Note
Type the following to indicate the end of the dial-plan template:
Step 6
</DIALTEMPLATE/>
Give the file a unique name specific to the dial plan that it defines and save it with a .xml extension to
Step 7
your TFTP server.
If the dial plan applies to a specific phone, add the path to the dial plan (without specifying the file type
Step 8
of .xml) via the dial_template parameter in the phone-specific configuration file. If the dial plan applies
to a system of phones, add the path to the dial plan via the dial_template parameter in the default
configuration file.

Dial-Plan Configuration Examples

Using the Pound-Sign (#) Character
The following example uses the pound sign (#) as a dialed digit:
</DIALTEMPLATE>
</DIALTEMPLATE/>
In the example above, the 123#45#6 string is matched if the user dials 123#45#6. Pressing the pound
sign (#) does not cause the phone to dial immediately because # is explicitly specified. However, dialing
1# or 123#4# causes the phone to dial immediately.
Using the Backward-Slash (\) and Asterisk (*) Characters
The following example uses the backward slash (\) and asterisk (*) as a dialed digit:
</DIALTEMPLATE>
</DIALTEMPLATE>
If you use the backslash (\) on a character other than the asterisk (*), the \ is ignored and the \\ character
is matched. If you need to explicitly specify the \ character in a dial plan, use \\. The \ is not sent out as
part of the dialed digit string because the phone removes it before sending the dial string.
