VCS Regex (IP@domain)

[Patrick Sparkman]

Hello, I noticed that when I try to call an IP address from an Jabber Video client on the iPad, that if I just dial the IP address alone, it appends the Jabber clients SIP domain to the IP and the call fails because it doesn't recognize that format of address.  I know I can call by putting an alias in front of the IP and it work, but what regex transform would I need to incorporate into our VCS for the call to work if users just want to put in the IP address alone?

I want to take <IP Address>@<SIP Domain>, and make it just <IP Address>.  How can I make this possible using regex?

Thanks, Patrick

(\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3})(@domain.com)

Then replace with \1 which is the first capture group which should be the IPv4 address.

You might want to put a ? After the domain.com) bit so that becomes optional in case it stops sending it in the future.

Guy,

Are you able to put a ? character after the domain:

(\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3})(@domain.com)?

Out of curiosity, i tested this using the VCS check pattern tool, and the result failed due to: "IP address aliases are not supported for pattern matching"

Have Cisco got plans to resolve this for the iPad app? as i believe JfW is capable of recognising a dialled IP address, and does not append the domain suffix.

Thanks, Simon

yes, that ? will make the (@domain.com) optional.

The rule my need to go in as a transform rather than an alias pattern match, then you can do an ip address search rule instead. It's been a long time since I've looked at setting up IP dialling rules.

I'm not able to comment on the Jabber iPad development I'm afraid, but I do believe they are looking at getting back to having more common code for the different versions, so I'd hope so.

Thanks,

Guy
