CME Won't take simple translation pattern

[nanosynth]

                   I have a SIP provider and they want the phone number to be presented as 12016543343  I have to dial a 9 to get out of CME. I do not want to dial an extra "1" and then the 10 digit phone number. A simple translation rule to strip the 9 and add a 1 to a 10 digit dialed number would be

Rule 1 /^9\(..........\)//1\1/

I have tried this on a website translation tester and it worked but CME 4.1 just won't take it. It gives error:

Incorrect format for Translation Match Pattern

        regular expression must be of the form  ^(\^)?(\+)?([0-9,A-F.*%?#]+)$

What could be wrong?

Hi

Its more simple to proceed with the below

rule 1 /^9/ //

Now in the pots dial peer for PSTN just add the command

prefix 1

Looks simple enough, but I have VOIP dial peer , thus no prefix command. So how do you apply it now?

Make sure you have a space in between the match and replace part. From your post it doesn't look like you have that.

voice translation-rule 10

rule 1 /^9\(..........\)$/ /1\1/

Also add a $ to the end of your match string, so that you only will match on the exact pattern that you want it to do. A good rule of thumb is to always make your match as specific as possible to avoid it to match unwanted patterns.

Hi

Sorry i forgot that it was a sip trunk

here we are

voice translation-rule 1000

rule 1 /^9/  /1\1/

Note:

The translation that roger provided was also correct and more specific than my.But if you go ahead with roger translation then just remove one (.)

You need nine . not ten !

I tried this. The phone just resets after you dial a number. Am I configed wrong?

voice translation-rule 1

rule 1 /^9\(..........\)$/ /1\1/                                         (10 dots for phone number)

dial-peer voice 1 voip

destination-pattern 9..........                                       (10 dots for phone number)

translate-outgoing called 1

voice-class codec 1

session protocol sipv2

session target ipv4:216.115.69.144

dtmf-relay rtp-nte dial-peer voice 1 voip

Nice catch chrysostomos! (+5)

I didn't count the dots.

Edit: Took a look at the original post and he states that he need to send a 1 + 10 dialed digits. So in that case there should be 10 dots in the translation rule.

Roger

You are Absolutely correct

The (+5) is yours

Thank you for the correction

[chrysostomos1980]

Hi

You need

voice translation-profile dnis

translate called 1

dial-peer voice 1 voip

destination-pattern 1..........                                      (10 dots for phone number) or .T

translation-profile outgoing dnis

voice-class codec 1

session protocol sipv2

session target ipv4:216.115.69.144

dtmf-relay rtp-nte

I believe the syntax of the translation rule is not what it should be.

If you are going to use the old command "translate-outgoing called", then you also need to use the translation-rule command...However if you are going to use voice translation-profile with the voice translation rule. then you need to apply it to the dial-peer using "translation-profile outgoing" command

So please change your config to this..

dial-peer voice 1 voip

translation-profile outgoing outgoing

yes the syntax was not correct

i came back with the edit and made the correction

[nanosynth]

I really, REALLY appreciate you guys help. I corrected the syntax to translation-profile outgoing outgoing and now it works. Beautifull. I am in regular CCNA class now and just dived into CME by myself and am learning it. I personally think translations and it's syntax is harder than supernetting..hahah
