Suggestions on CUCM 6.0(1) Route Pattern?

[johnnywan]

We have a scenario where I have a MGCP GW with an FXO port that is used to tap into a legacy overhead paging system. It was working but now they replaced the paging system and they want me to manipulate the existing paging digits somehow instead of re-training the staff. Initially an all page was accomplished by dialing 4174. I had a rp in that stripped the 417 and sent the 4 to the paging that kicked off an all page. With this new system the all page is (and has to be I am told) a 0 but they want the users to still dial 4174 to all page. I can't simply add a translation pattern to xlate 4174 to 0 due to the obvious (operator extension). Is there a way in the route pattern to accomplish this? I was thinking about a RP of 4174. strip all digits predot and use the Calling Party Tranformation Mask of 0 on the RP config? To try to send a 0 out to the FXO port.

Is there a better way that I am not thinking of?

Thanks in advance

So I need to do is:

User dials 4174

This extension sends a 0 out a FXO port of a MGCP gw.

I think you can do it this way:

1) Create A RP that matches digit 0 and routes the call to the MGCP FXO endpoint.

2) Place This RP into a partiton lets say PAGING-FXO_PT.

3) Then create a Calling Search Space that contains only the  PAGING-FXO_PT lets say PAGING_CSS.

4) Create a Translation Pattern that matches the digits 4174 and place this TP on the partition that it is listed on the CSS applied to the Phones.

5) Set the CSS of the TP to match the the PAGING_CSS that you created earlier. Set the Called Party Transformation Mask to 0.

These are the high level steps to follow in order to achieve this. First create the Partition and then the CSS before proceeding.

I think this should work.

Best regards,

Arber.

I think a RP = 4174 with Called party transformation mask = 0 should do the trick.

Thanks for both suggestions. I am testing this today. Another way would be to xlate the 4174 number to a

XXX0 number then create a RP that strip predot XXX.0
