Local Dial Plan

A dial plan describes the number and pattern of digits that a user dials to reach a particular

telephone number. Access codes, area codes, specialized codes, and combinations of the number

of digits dialed are all part of a dial plan. For instance, the North American Public Switched

Telephone Network (PSTN) uses a 10-digit dial plan that includes a 3-digit area code and a

7-digit telephone number. Most PBXs support variable length dial plans that use 3 to 11 digits.

Dial plans must comply with the telephone networks to which they connect. Only totally private

voice networks that are not linked to the PSTN or to other PBXs can use any dial plan.

The Dial Plan field accepts up to 512 characters. If a User enters a dial plan longer than 512

characters, or a parsing error occurs, the phone uses the default dial plan of “x+#|xx+*”. You

configure the SIP Local Dial Plan using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files.

The IP phone SIP local dial plan available symbols are as follows:

any 5-digit dial strings that begin with a '2' up to '8', any 12-digit dial strings that begin with '91',
