Dialing plan (page 6)

Dialing plan

Using the 3456 UC Client, you can dial outgoing numbers in several formats. The 3456 UC Client automatically modifies several phone number formats for proper operation dialing with the Avaya Communication Server 1000 (Avaya CS 1000). For example, if you dial 6-555-5172, the 3456 UC Client removes the “-” characters as well trims any spaces before placing the call. Depending on the CS 1000 configuration, a typical North American setup may require users to dial a “9” before local calls and a “6” before long distance or internal ESN calls. For example, if you dial someone at 5172 (local 6135555172), that person may be reached via the following ways:
4 digit DN dialing = 5172 (some locations may have 5 digit DNs)
Local 10 digit calling = 96135555172
Local 7 digit dialing = 95555172
Long distance dialing = 616135555172
ESN dialing = 65555172
E.164 dialing = +16135555172
The 3456 UC Client has a configurable dialing plan field which performs the preconfigured normalization on the number before placing the call. Under the Account Settings tab a dialing plan may be provided, for example, Dialing plan = xxxxT|3xxxxxxxT|+x.T;match=2;pre"6"
This example tries to match the number provided to three rules which are separated by the pipes “|”. The first rule is xxxxT which matches a 4-digit extension but allows more time to receive digits in case the user does not complete entering the number. No modification is performed on 4-digit numbers. The second rule is 3xxxxxxxT which matches a 7-digit number

starting with “3”. This indicates a typical ESN number such as 3555172. If the user does not enter more numbers a “6” is prepended to the front of the number making it dialed as 65555172. The last rule matches any length number starting with + (E.164). No modification is performed to these E.164 numbers.
Depending on the CS 1000 configuration, some variation of these rules may need to be configured in order to add the correct outbound prefix to the number. For example, if a site requires users to enter “8” before a UDP number, the rule must be modified as follows: Dialing plan = xxxxT|3xxxxxxxT|4xxxxxxxT|+x.T;match=2;pre"8"; match=3;pre"8".
For more information about dialing plan syntax and descriptions, see the 3456 UC Client help documentation.
