Hello,
Anyone can explain the meaning of gateway code?
As per Cisco Doc:
Cisco Prime Collaboration uses the gateway codes that you configure to determine the call classification for an external call.
I did not understand it, based on what I should configure the codes?

Hi,
I agree that the information about gateway codes is not very clear, you can however check the following snippet from the PCA guide with the text in bold providing some details about how gateway codes come into picture
The following table provides the default dial plan values.
Condition | No. of Chars | Default Pattern | Call Category Name | Call Category Type | Explanation | Priority |
> | 3 | 011! | International | International | If the number of digits dialed is greater than 3 and starts with 011, the call is classified as International. | 1 |
= | 7 | ! | Local | Local | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 7 and the pattern is ! (more than one digit; in this case, 7 digits), the call is classified as Local. | 2 |
= | 10 | T! | Toll Free | Toll Free | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 10 and the pattern is T! (more than one digit; in this case, a 10-digit number that starts with a toll-free number that is defined in the dial plan), the call is classified as Toll Free. | 3 |
= | 10 | G! | Local | Local | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 10 and the pattern is G! (more than one digit; in this case, a 10-digit number that starts with a gateway code that has been defined in Cisco Prime Collaboration), the call is classified as Local. | 4 |
= | 10 | ! | Long Distance | Long Distance | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 10 and the pattern is ! (more than one digit; in this case, a 10-digit number), the call is classified as Long Distance. | 5 |
= | 11 | T! | Toll Free | Toll Free | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 11 and the pattern is T! (more than one digit; in this case, an 11-digit number that starts with a toll-free number that is defined in the dial plan), the call is classified as Toll Free. | 6 |
= | 11 | XG! | Local | Local | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 11 and the pattern is XG! (more than one digit; in this case, an 11-digit number that starts with any single digit followed by a gateway code that has been defined in Cisco Prime Collaboration), the call is classified as Local. | 7 |
= | 11 | ! | Long Distance | Long Distance | If the number of digits dialed is equal to 11 and the pattern is ! (more than one digit; in this case, an 11-digit number), the call is classified as Long Distance. | 8 |
Note | Cisco Prime Collaboration classifies the call as Toll Free if the toll-free code is defined in the dial plan that is assigned to the cluster. |
