Application Dial Rule on CUCM

[gpsriramdc]

Hi ,

We want to configure the application dial rule which is matching variable numbers.

In CUCM  Admin guide it's mention as

Number of Digits

Enter the length of the dialed numbers to which you want to apply this application dial rule. Enter a number of digits between 1 and 100 or the characters +, *, and #.

When  we tried to configure the * it's not accpeting.

Is there any way to configure the application dial rule to match the variable numbers.

Thanks in Advance.

Just wondering which version of CUCM you are using.

I am using CUCM 8.0.3 (see below the different fields).

The number of digits should be a number between 1 and 100 (you cannot use +, *, # ...)

The "Number Begins With" could contain those specific wildcards.

Name	Enter a name in the Name field. The name must be at least one character  in length and can include up to 50 alphanumeric characters, but it  cannot include double-quotes ("), percentage sign (%), ampersand  (&), back-slash (\), or angle brackets (<>). Ensure each application dial rule name is unique.
Description	Enter a description of the application dial rule in the Description  field. The description can include up to 50 characters in any language,  but it cannot include double-quotes ("), percentage sign (%), ampersand  (&), back-slash (\), or angle brackets (<>)
Number Begins With	Enter the initial digits of the directory numbers to which you want to apply this application dial rule. Valid characters include numeric digits (0-9), plus sign (+), asterisk  (*), and number sign (#). Be aware that you cannot enter more than 50  characters in this field.
Number of Digits	Enter the length of the dialed numbers to which you want to apply this application dial rule. This field Supports numeric characters (0-9) only. Must contain a value that is equal to or greater than 0 and less than 100.
Total Digits to be Removed	Enter the number of digits that you want Cisco Unified Communications  Manager to remove from the beginning of dialed numbers that apply to  this dial rule. This field Supports numeric characters (0-9) only. Must contain a value that is equal to or greater than 0 and less than 100. Cannot contain a value that is more than the value in the Number of Digits field.
Prefix With Pattern	Enter the pattern to prepend to dialed numbers that apply to this  application dial rule. Valid values include numeric digits (0-9), plus  (+), asterisk (*), and pound (#). Be aware that you cannot enter more  than 50 characters in this field.
Application Dial Rule Priority	Choose the dial rule priority as top, bottom, or middle.

Pierre.

Hi ,

We are using 7.0.

Thanks.

ok. I see the issue.

Have a look at the software release notes of CUCM 7.1.5b, the number of digits is a number between 1 and 100 (no wildcard).

Hi ,

Thanks a lot for your info.

Is there any other way to configure the Variable length dial plan for application rules?
