Solved: Translating numbers beginning with +

Zmegolaz_ · ‎10-04-2010

Hi,

I have a problem with a AS5400. I'm trying to translate incoming numbers that start with +, e.g. +4631123456.

The rule look like this:

voice translation-rule 3

rule 1 /^\+46/ /0/ type any national plan any isdn
voice translation-profile sip2pstn
translate called 3

The outcome I want is 031123456. The command test voice translation-rule 3 +4631123456 shows that the rule works.

The problem is that the + seems to disappear right before the translation rule is applied, and added afterwards if there isn't a match.

If i remove the + from the rule I get 031123456, but that isn't a perfect solution, since I then can't match local or special numbers, e.g. 112 or 911.

What is removing the +, and how can I stop it from doing that?

At the present, translation rules do not support the + character.

So, you can only make them work based on number lenght, patterns, type, etc.

The other alternative, would be a custom TCL/IVR script, that can do anything.

Thank you for your fast answer.

I have some experience with TCL, so that might be a solution. But I've never used it in a Cisco gateway, so do you know any good help site where I might find examples of similar scripts?

I personally write TCL/IVR scripts for any purpose

www.ciscoscripts.com

The standard reference and examples, are the Cisco TCL/IVR documentation.

I was also thinking you could try something with SIP profiles, but have no specific expereince.

Thanks for the nice rating and good luck!
