Translation Profiles on CME

Akash Sharma — Tue, 19 Mar 2019 17:28:14 GMT

Hi All

I am trying to understand Translation profiles in CME. Can someone please help me make the following profiles understand ?

As far as I know, we have to go for Match & Replace rule, but I dont understand the same in the following examples.

=====================================================

voice translation-rule 1
rule 1 /$.*$/ /9\1/

voice translation-profile PROFILE1
translate calling 1

======================================================

voice translation-rule 1
rule 1 /^.*$4...$$/ /\1/
!
voice translation-rule 2
rule 1 /^4$.*$/ /115678\1/

voice translation-profile Incoming-Translate
translate called 1
!
voice translation-profile Outgoing-Translate
translate calling 2

======================================================

Regards

In first example, (.*) will

In first example, (.*) will match all patterns and prefix 9 to all patterns. For example, if the pattern is 222222, it will become 9222222. Then you are applying it to calling number. Later on, you will have to apply it to port or dial-peer in either outbound or inbound direction.

In next example, in rule 1, again you're matching all pattersn with (.*) but if it ends with 4... and if pattern matches, final number will be 4... (any string before it will be stripped). You're applying it to called number then. For example, if pattern is 2224444, it will become 4444.

In next rule 2, any pattern that starts with 4 will matche rule 2 and prefix it with 115678, so final number will be 115678 plus any pattern that starts with 4 (4 will be stripped). You're applying it to calling number then. For example, if the pattern is 42222222, it will become 1156782222222.

(+5) for vivek , here is some output test result which you have validate on the GW . here is the output

Frist Rule
voice translation-rule 1
rule 1 /$.*$/ /9\1/

voice translation-profile PROFILE1
translate calling 1

Result output: If any ANI (Calling Party number) start with Any digit example below like calling number 1234567890 then it will prefix 9 with 1234567890

test voice translation-rule 1 1234567890
Matched with rule 1
Original number: 1234567890     Translated number: 91234567890
Original number type: none      Translated number type: none
Original number plan: none      Translated number plan: none

Second Rule

voice translation-rule 1
rule 1 /^.*$4...$$/ /\1/
!

First result ouput: if any called number start with any digit however ends with last 4123 or 4XXX any digit it strip all the digit except 4XXX

test voice translation-rule 1 1234567
Matched with rule 1
Original number: 1234567        Translated number: 4567
Original number type: none      Translated number type: none
Original number plan: none      Translated number plan: none

voice translation-rule 2
rule 1 /^4$.*$/ /115678\1/

Result output:If any called number start digit 4 and ends with any digit it will append/add the called number with 115678 + stripped 4 and add rest digit.

test voice translation-rule 2 4567890
Matched with rule 1
