Prefix Dialing

The IP phones support a prefix dialing feature for outgoing calls.

You can manually dial a number or dial a number from a list. The phone automatically maps the

pre-configured prepended digit in the configuration, to the outgoing number. When a match is

found, the prepended digits are added to the beginning of the dial string and the call is dialed.

You can enable this feature by adding a prepend digit(s) to the end of the Local Dial Plan

parameter string in the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI at

Basic Settings->Preferences->General

.

For example, if you add a prepend map of “[2-9]XXXXXXXXX,91”, the IP phone adds the digits

“91” to any 10-digit number beginning with any digit from 2 to 9 that is dialed out. Other

examples of prepend mappings are:
1X+#,9 (Prepends 9 to any digit string beginning with “1” and terminated with “#”.)
6XXX,579 (Prepends “579” to any 4-digit string starting with “6”.)
[4-6]XXXXXX,78 (Prepends “78” to any 7-digit string starting with “4”, “5”, or “6”.)

Example

If you enter the following dial string for a local dial plan:

sip dial plan: 1+#,9

where “9” is the prepended digit, and you dial the following number:

15551212

the IP phone automatically adds the “9” digit to the beginning of the dialed number before the

number is forwarded as 915551212.

Note:

The prepend digits are also added if the dialing times-out on a

partial match.

Note:

You can configure a local dial plan via the configuration files or

the Aastra Web UI.
