CME and discard 9

shikamarunara · ‎08-20-2007

I've very new to CME/CUE and need some advice on part of my dial plan. I'm trying to implement dial "9" to dial out, but I find that my dial-peer is passing everything to the telco including the "9". Is there a command or a method that will allow me to discard it or to discard a pre-dot like in regular CallManager?

Hi Shikamaru,

Here is what Cisco recommends in the CME SRND Guide;

!11-digit long-distance PSTN dialing with an access code of 9

dial-peer voice 1 pots

preference 1

destination-pattern 91..........

port 2/0:23

forward-digits 11

!

!7-digit local PSTN dialing with an access code of 9

dial-peer voice 4 pots

destination-pattern 9[2-9]......

port 2/0:23

forward-digits 7

From this good design doc;

Cisco Unified CallManager Express Solution Reference Network Design Guide

Cisco Unified CallManager Express Dial Plan

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the reality check, Rob. Yeah, I stumbled into the world of "forward-digits" when I was doing some dial peer dubugging, good to see my mind was on the right track. I got the international dialing to work, now trying to figure out how the local dialing will go.
