Solved: PAP2 -> Obi110 dial plan

[ianobi]

mrjoe,

I decided to have one more look at this after looking at a similar problem for my own set up. I think RonR's original post was intending for the ** codes to be used from the pap2.

This is your SP1> X_InboundCallRoute, modified to allow dialling without ** codes:

{9725xxxxxxxx:aa},{(9725xxxxxxxx):aa(**688351000xxxxxx)},{pap2>(Mtg1):tg1},{pap2>([1-9]x?*@@.):pp},{pap2>(<#:>|1xx):li},{pap2>**0:aa},{pap2>***:aa2},{pap2>(Msp1):sp1},{pap2>(Msp2):sp2},{pap2>(Mvg3):vg3},{pap2>(Mvg4):vg4},{pap2>(Mvg6):vg6},{pap2>(Mvg7):vg7},{pap2>(<**9:>(Mpp)):pp},{pap2>0:ph},{pap2:},{ph,vg5(pap2)}

I have left in **9 as Mpp matches any nine digit number and may cause conflicts. This relies on there being no conflicts between digit maps. I removed Mli as it is already there within Mtg1.

I would copy and save your original plan, maybe put it in a word doc. Copy and paste this plan to try it. Easy then to get back to the original.

Of course, by now you may have gone a completely different route

Hi Ianobi,
I really appreciate your attempts at solving this issue.
The new digit map did not achieve the desired results however.

I've officially given up on trying to find a solution.

I think it must be it is a lower level digit map that cannot evoke a SP change on its own.

I now have another problem.
I'll open a new Post

Finally figured this one out with something I read about trunks.
A trunk will also check each dial plan and when it finds a match it will use that particular VG/SP.
So I broke up my Line dial plan, took the * prefixes out and put the remaining digits in each VG/SP that I wanted it to dial through.

Then I changed Trunk1's digit map to include all of the VGs that I wanted to use.

Everything now works perfectly.
COTs cannot have **Xs prepended automatically but they can have the Trunk do the work for them!

I'll post a few examples when I get home.

Just saw this RonR Post:

http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=3094.msg20656#msg20656

The InboundCallRoute rules generated by the OBiTALK Web Portal for Circle of Trust have some limitations and shortcomings:


1. When single-stage dialing is used, the called number is not processed though the OBi's PrimaryLine DigitMap.  As a result, no validation is done and expected transformations do not occur.  The rules should instead be:


Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute:

{(290123456|200123456|300123456)>(Mpli):pli},{(290123456|200123456|300123456):aa},{ph}

where pli is the OBi's PrimaryLine name (sp1, sp2, or li).


2. Single-stage dialing is limited to using the OBi's PrimaryLine.  Service Route Access Codes (**1, **2, etc.) are not supported.

These limitations and shortcomings do not exist if the configuration described in Single-Stage Dialing Through Any OBi Trunk is used instead of Circle of Trust.

Here is an example of my Setup now:

Trunk Group 1
li1,sp2,vg1,vg4,vg7,vg6,vg8,sp1

DigitMap
((Mli)|(Msp2)|(Mvg1)|(Mvg4)|(Mvg7)|(Mvg6)|(Mvg8)|(Msp1))

Voice Gateway 4
(01xxxxxxxxx|<0191>4[2-9]xxxxx|02[34]xxxxxxxxx|028[2346-9]xxxxxxx|0292xxxxxxx|03[0347]xxxxxxxx|07xxxxxxxxx)

Voice Gateway 5
(<0:972>[3-9]x.|<0:972>2[1-9]x.|9<0:72>[2-489]xxxxxxx|9<0:72>[57]xxxxxxxx)

None of the Digit Maps can have xx. In them except the last one.
So if you don't have a detailed dial plan and usually dial a **x prefix and end your number with # this won't fork for you.

Somehow I knew that you would not give up on this 

We can all learn a lot from your innovative use of trunk groups.

You deserve the RonR medal for Digit Mapping

ianobi,

You deserve the RonR medal for Digit Mapping 

Not a bad idea. We can start using this medal symbolically to memorialize RonR's contribution to this forum. Ron must be chuckling somewhere every time we mention him on this forum.  He could send us an ack to let us know that our pings are received.

Hi Ianobi,
Thanks for the Complements.

The best part of this way of routing calls is that you need no S2/S4 etc. which delays dialing, You just put the SP/VG with the longer numbers earlier in the Group.  It is also cleaner as you can see exactly which numbers are using which SP/VG

Also, there is no need for me to dial Area Codes or Country Codes anymore.
(For the US I dial (1-9)xx xxx xxxx without the preceding 001 or 1
For Tyneside 0191 4 area code, I just dial starting with a 4xx xxxx for Lancashire 0161 7, 7xx xxxx & for London 020 3/7/8 just 3xxx xxxx or 7xxx xxxx which are the numbers that people living in these areas can dial, for other parts of the UK 01/2/3xxxxxxxxx. For the 02 Central District of Israel I dial xxx xxxx, elsewhere 03/4/7/8/9 xxx xxxx, for any other countries I dial 00xx..

For those interested or if it may help someone:
This used to be my Digit Map when I requested help to shorten it. http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=3961.0

This is all that is left:
Trunk1:
TrunkList: vg6,vg4,vg7,li1,vg3,vg8,sp1,sp2,vg1
DigitMap: ((Mvg6)|(Mvg4)|(Mvg7)|(Mli)|(Mvg3)|(Mvg8)|(Msp1)|(Msp2)|(Mvg1))

Digit Maps:
(US SP)-Mvg6: ([2-9]xxxxxxxxx)
(UK SP)-Mvg4: (<0191>4xxxxxx|<0161>7xxxxxx|0[13]xxxxxxxxx|02[1-9]xxxxxxxx|07xxxxxxxxx)
(UK SP)-Mvg7: (<020>[378]xxxxxxx|020xxxxxxxx)
(IL Cell)-Mli: (00xx.|<02>xxxxxxx<#>|0[23489][3-9]xxxxxx<#>|05[0-578]xxxxxxx<#>|07xxxxxxxx<#>|1xxxxxxxxx<#>|*xxxxx<#>|*xxxx<#>|1[1-9]xx<#>|1[1-9]x<#>|12[12]2xxxx<#>|1255xxx<#>)
(IL SP)-Mvg3: (05[0-578]xxxxxxx)
(UK Localphone)-Mvg8: (<9722>[3-9]xxxxxx|<0:972>[23489][3-9]xxxxxx|<0:972>7xxxxxxxx|08[47][1-9]xxxxxxx)

(UK Comms)-Msp2: (08xxxxxxxxx|08xxxxxxxx)
(didlogic Int.)-Mvg1: (<00:>xx.)

I use different VGs for calling different countries to show the CLI of my numbers in that country or City.
