Recommendation to additional prefix for off-net calls

[webstd.design]

What additional prefix should I use for off-net calls. I have 1XXX like on-net calls. 9XX.1XXX like inter-site on-net calls, [2345780]XXXXX as city,intercity,etc. Can I use prefix like "*"?

What you will recomend for me?

Hi,

Your dial-plan will depend on which country you are in...

Eg for US... you will have things like

911

9911 emergency calls

9[2-9]XXXXXX Local calls

91[2-9]XX[2-9]XXXXXX long distance calls

9011!

9011!# for International calls

For UK dial-plans

999

9999 emergency

90[1-8]XXXXXXXXX Land line calls

907XXXXXXXXX mobile

90[9]XXXXXXXXX premium rate calls

900!

900!# International calls

HTH...

As Asked CAN I use prefix *, but not about countries standart numbering plan

Your tone is a bit rude! I have taking time to post all that and you respond like this!

This is a poor attitude! Dont keep this up!

Anyways

Callmanager does not use the prefix * you can only use . X # or !

dude, ccm can use * as prefix, but I want to know, is it normal? because there are a lot of issued like SRST, where symbol * is not the normal character on the router dial-peer.

webstd,

to answer your question, I only use * as the leading digit for my system numbers that stay local to CCM only. ie meet-me, call-park. There is issues with tons of products, such as Unity Mailboxes, SIP Proxy, Gatekeeper, H323 gateway... Avoid it and just use 9 or 8 like the rest of the world.

Cheers,
