translation assistance please???

[luis.rosello]

Hi,

I'm configuring an h323 gateway that will be receiving 4 digits on a PRI, I have 4 numbers that will be ported, and a new range, that will need to be "massaged".  The 4 ported numbers are straight forward, and translations work, but when I'm trying to add the 5th rule, the gateway does not like it:

RTR(cfg-translation-rule)#rule 5 /0.../ /1.../

                                                        ^

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

I've tried a number of diffenent approaches, but it still barks.  What I'm basically trying to do is change the first digit of the received number 0xxx to a one, so it will match our internal scheme 1xxx. 

Here's my current config:

voice translation-rule 1

rule 1 /7327/ /1311/

rule 2 /4220/ /1310/

rule 3 /4326/ /1310/

rule 4 /7420/ /1310/

Hello Luis

what happens when you do Question Mark (?) under voice translation-rule

# rule  ?

Please rate all useful post.

Try this

rule 5 /^0+/ /1/

Putting ... after the 1 isnt the syntax to use for keeping the digits you previously wanted to keep, thats why the router is barking at you. It doesnt know what to change them to.

Thanx Tracy, that did it!

RTR#test voice translation-rule 1 0111

Matched with rule 5

Original number: 0111   Translated number: 1111

Original number type: none      Translated number type: none

Original number plan: none      Translated number plan: none

Looking at it a little closer you should remove the + after the zero. If you have a number that starts with two zero's then both of them will be replaced and your result will be a 3 digit number.

example: in your above test if your number was 0011, then the output will end up being 111. Just take out that + sign and everything will still work like you want.
