Dial Plan Backward Compatibility

This section is for backward compatibility only. It is recommended to migrate your Dial
Plan configuration to the latest Dial Plan feature (see
Routing).
Configure prefix tags in the Dial Plan file using the following syntax:
[ PLAN<index> ]
<prefix number>,0,<prefix tag>
where:
■ Index is the Dial Plan index
■ prefix number is the called or calling number prefix (ranges can be defined in brackets)
■ prefix tag is the user-defined prefix tag of up to nine characters, representing the prefix number
Each prefix tag type - called or calling - must be configured in a dedicated Dial Plan index number.
For example, Dial Plan 1 can be for called prefix tags and Dial Plan 2 for calling prefix tags.
The example Dial Plan file below defines the prefix tags "LOCL"and "INTL" to represent different
called number prefixes for local and long distance calls:
[ PLAN1 ]
42520[3-5],0,LOCL
425207,0,LOCL
42529,0,LOCL
425200,0,INTL
425100,0,INTL
....

Please adhere to the following regarding the 'Tag' parameter in the Dial Plan Rule
table:
✔
Only one tag name without a value can be configured. In the above example,
"Holland" is the tag name without a value. If an additional tag name is
configured, for example, "Holland;France", the setting is invalid.
✔
Tag names with values (i.e., name=value) must be unique within a Dial Plan
rule. In the above example, "Country=England" is a tag name with value.
Configuring the parameter with "Country=England;Country=Scotland" is
invalid. A valid configuration would be "Country=England;Country1=Scotland".
Configure the 'Routing Tag Name' parameter with only the name of the tag (i.e.,
without the value, if exists). For example, instead of "Country=England", configure
it as "Country" only.
If the same Dial Plan tag is configured for an IP Group in the IP Groups table and an
IP Group Set in the IP Group Set table, the IP Group Set takes precedence and the
device sends the SIP dialog to the IP Group(s) belonging to the IP Group Set.
Called and calling prefix tags can be used in the same routing rule.
When using prefix tags, you need to configure manipulation rules to remove the
tags before the device sends the calls to their destinations.
