Planning the System
Dial access code — Allows you to use trunk access codes (TAC) and feature access
●
codes (FAC) in the same range. For example, you could define the group 100 to 199,
which would allow both FAC and TAC in that range. Dial access codes can start with any
number from 1 to 9, * and #, and contain up to 4 digits.
In our example figure, dial access codes begin with 1 and must be 3 digits long.
Note:
The Dial Plan Analysis Table does not allow you to enter a range specifically for
Note:
trunk access codes. However, the Trunk Group screen still allows you to assign
a TAC to a trunk group. The TAC you enter on the Trunk Group screen must
match the format you have administered for a DAC on the Dial Plan Analysis
Table.
Extensions (ext) — Defines extension ranges that can be used on your system. In our
●
figure, extensions must be in the ranges 30000 to 39999, 40000 to 49999 and 50000 to
59999.
Feature access codes (fac) only — FAC can be any number from 1 to 9 and contain up to
●
4 digits. You can use * or #, but only as a first digit. In our example, feature access codes
can begin with * or # and are 3-digits long.
The Dial Plan Analysis Table works with the Dial Plan Parameters Table for fully defining
your dial plan. The Dial Plan Parameters Table allows you to set system-wide parameters for
your dial plan.
Displaying your dial plan
You might want to take this opportunity to look at and interpret your own dial plan. To display
your system's dial plan:
1. Type display dialplan analysis. Press Enter.
Modifying your dial plan
It is easy to make changes to your dial plan. For example, we will add a new range of dial
access codes to the dial plan. We want to be able to assign both FAC and TAC in the 700 to 799
range.
1. Type change dialplan analysis. Press Enter.
The Dial Plan Analysis appears.
2. Move the cursor to an empty row.
3. Type 7 in the Dialed String column. Press Tab to move to the next field.
4. Type 3 in the Total Length column. Press Tab to move to the next field.
