Pattern Definition
|
Route Pattern
|
Enter the route pattern, including numbers and wildcards (do
not use spaces); for example, for NANP, enter 9.@ for typical local access or
8XXX for a typical private network numbering plan. Valid characters include the
uppercase characters A, B, C, and D and \+, which represents the international
escape character +.
Note
|
Ensure that the directory route pattern, which uses the
chosen partition, route filter, and numbering plan combination, is unique.
Check the route pattern, translation pattern, directory number, call park
number, call pickup number, message waiting on/off, or meet me number if you
receive an error that indicates duplicate entries. You can also check the route
plan report.
|
|
Route Partition
|
If you want to use a partition to restrict access to the route
pattern, choose the desired partition from the drop-down list box. If you do
not want to restrict access to the route pattern, choose <None> for the
partition.
You can configure the number of partitions that display in
this drop-down list box by using the Max List Box Items enterprise parameter.
If more partitions exist than the Max List Box Items enterprise parameter
specifies, the Find button displays next to the drop-down list box. Click the
Find button to display the Find and List Partitions window, then find and
choose a partition name.
Note
|
To set the maximum list box items, choose
and choose CCMAdmin Parameters.
|
Note
|
Make sure that the combination of route pattern, route
filter, and partition is unique within the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster.
|
|
Description
|
Enter a description of the route pattern. The description can
include up to 50 characters in any language, but it cannot include
double-quotes ("), percentage sign (%), ampersand (&), or angle brackets
(<>).
|
Numbering Plan
|
Choose a numbering plan.
|
Route Filter
|
If your route pattern includes the @ wildcard, you may choose
a route filter. The optional act of choosing a route filter restricts certain
number patterns.
The route filters that display depend on the numbering plan
that you choose from the Numbering Plan drop-down list box.
You can configure the number of items that display in this
drop-down list box by using the Max List Box Items enterprise parameter. If
more route filters exist than the Max List Box Items enterprise parameter
specifies, the Find button displays next to the drop-down list box. Click the
Find button to display the Find and List Route Filters window, then find and
choose a route filter name.
Note
|
To set the maximum list box items, choose
and choose CCMAdmin Parameters.
|
|
MLPP Precedence
|
Choose an MLPP precedence setting for this route pattern from
the drop-down list box:
- Executive
Override—Highest precedence setting for MLPP calls.
- Flash
Override—Second highest precedence setting for MLPP calls.
- Flash—Third
highest precedence setting for MLPP calls.
- Immediate—Fourth
highest precedence setting for MLPP calls.
- Priority—Fifth
highest precedence setting for MLPP calls.
- Routine—Lowest
precedence setting for MLPP calls.
- Default—Does not
override the incoming precedence level but rather lets it pass unchanged.
Note
|
You cannot configure the Multilevel Precedence Preemption
(MLPP) level on the Route Pattern page to flash, flash override, or executive
override levels if you want to enable the DCC feature. You must set the MLPP
level to these levels at the translation pattern instead.
|
|
Apply Call Blocking Percentage
|
Check this check box to enable the Destination Code Control
(DCC) feature. By enabling DCC, all calls other than flash and higher
precedence calls made to the destination are filtered and allowed or disallowed
based on the Call Blocking Percentage quota set for the destination. Flash and
higher precedence calls are allowed at all times. DCC is disabled by default.
Note
|
The Apply Call Blocking Percentage field gets enabled only
if the MLPP level is immediate, priority, routine or default.
|
|
Call Blocking Percentage (%)
|
Enter the percentage of calls to be blocked for this
destination in numerals. This value specifies the percentage of lower
precedence calls made to this destination that get blocked by the route
pattern. This percentage limits the lower precedence calls only; the flash and
higher precedence calls made to this destination are allowed at all times.
Note
|
Cisco Unified Communications Manager calculates the
maximum number of low priority calls to be allowed through this route pattern
based on the call blocking percentage that you set for this destination.
|
Note
|
The Call Blocking Percentage (%) field gets enabled only if
the Apply Call Blocking Percentage check box is checked.
|
|
Resource Priority Namespace Network Domain
|
Choose a Resource Priority Namespace Network Domain from the
drop-down list box. To configure the Resource Priority Namespace Network
Domains, choose
.
|
External Call Control Profile
|
In
Cisco Unified Communications Manager, you enable
external call control by assigning an external call control profile to a
route pattern. If the route pattern has an external call control
profile assigned to it, when a call occurs that matches the route
pattern,
Cisco Unified Communications Manager immediately sends
a call-routing query to an adjunct route server, and the adjunct route server
directs
Cisco Unified Communications Manager on how to handle
the call.
From the drop-down list box, choose the external call profile
that you want to assign to the route pattern.
|
Route Class
|
Choose a route class setting for this translation pattern from
the drop-down list box:
- Default
- Voice
- Data
- Satellite
Avoidance
- Hotline voice
- Hotline data
The route class is a DSN code that identifies the class of
traffic for a call. The route class informs downstream devices about special
routing or termination requirements. The Default setting uses the existing
route class of the incoming call.
You can use non-default route class settings to
translate an inbound T1 CAS route class digit into a
Cisco Unified Communications Manager route class value
(and strip off the digit). You should not need to assign a non-default route
class setting to any other inbound calls that use pattern configuration.
If the route pattern points to a SIP trunk
supporting G.Clear, then specify Data or Hotline as the Route
Class.
|
Gateway/Route List
|
Choose the gateway or route list for which you are adding a
route pattern.
Note
|
If the gateway is included in a Route Group, this drop-down
list box does not display the gateway. When a gateway is chosen in the
drop-down list box,
Cisco Unified Communications Manager uses all the ports
in the gateway to route/block this route pattern. This action does not apply
for MGCP gateways.
|
|
Route Option
|
The Route Option designation indicates whether you want this
route pattern to be used for routing calls (such as 9.@ or 8[2-9]XX) or for
blocking calls. Choose the Route this pattern or Block this pattern radio
button.
If you choose the Block this pattern radio button, you must
choose the reason for which you want this route pattern to block calls. Choose
a value from the drop-down list box:
- No Error
- Unallocated Number
- Call Rejected
- Number Changed
- Invalid Number
Format
- Precedence Level
Exceeded
|
Call Classification
|
Call Classification indicates whether the call that is routed
through this route pattern is considered either off (OffNet) or on (OnNet) the
local network. The default value specifies OffNet. When adding a route pattern,
if you uncheck the Provide Outside Dial Tone check box, you set Call
Classification as OnNet.
|
Allow Device Override
|
This check box remains unchecked by default. When the check
box is checked, the system uses the Call Classification setting that is
configured on the associated gateway or trunk to consider the outgoing call as
OffNet or OnNet.
|
Provide Outside Dial Tone
|
Check this check box to provide outside dial tone. To route
the call in the network, leave the check box unchecked.
|
Allow Overlap Sending
|
With overlap sending enabled, when
Cisco Unified Communications Manager passes a call to
the PSTN, it relies on overlap sending in the PSTN to determine how many digits
to collect and where to route the call. Check this check box for each route
pattern that you consider to be assigned to a gateway or route list that routes
the calls to a PSTN that supports overlap sending.
The CMC and FAC features do not support overlap sending
because the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager cannot determine
when to prompt the user for the code. If you check the Require Forced
Authorization Code or the Require Client Matter Code check box, the system
disables the Allow Overlap Sending check box.
|
Urgent Priority
|
If the dial plan contains overlapping route patterns,
Cisco Unified Communications Manager does not route the
call until the interdigit timer expires (even if dialing a sequence of digits
to choose a current match is possible). Check this check box to interrupt
interdigit timing when
Cisco Unified Communications Manager must route a call
immediately.
|
Require Forced Authorization Code
|
If you want to use forced authorization codes with this route
pattern, check this check box.
The FAC feature does not support overlap sending because the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager cannot determine
when to prompt the user for the code. If you check the Allow Overlap Sending
check box, the system disables the Require Forced Authorization Code check box.
|
Authorization Level
|
Enter the authorization level for the route pattern. The
number that you specify in this field determines the minimum authorization
level that is needed to successfully route a call through this route pattern.
Tip
|
To activate the authorization code, you must
check the Require Forced Authorization Code. If you do not check the check box,
a message displays when you insert the route pattern that indicates that the
authorization code cannot be activated. To activate the code, click Cancel,
check the Require Forced Authorization Code check box, and click Insert. To
activate the code at a later time, click OK.
|
|
Require Client Matter Code
|
If you want to use client matter codes with this route
pattern, check this check box.
The CMC feature does not support overlap sending because the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager cannot determine
when to prompt the user for the code. If you check the Allow Overlap Sending
check box, the Require Client Matter Code check box become disabled.
|
Is an Emergency Services Number (used by Emergency Call Handler)
|
Enable this route pattern to be used for Emergency Call handling.
Emergency Call Handler helps you to manage emergency calls in your telephony network while following local ordinances and
regulations.
Note
|
This setting applies only to the Emergency Call Handler feature, and not to other external emergency calling solutions such
as Cisco Emergency Responder.
|
|
Calling Party Transformations
|
Use Calling Party's External Phone Number Mask
|
Check the check box if you want the full, external phone
number to be used for calling line identification (CLID) on outgoing calls. You
may also configure an External Phone Number Mask on all phone devices.
Note
|
The calling party transformation settings that are assigned
to the route groups in a route list override any calling party transformation
settings that are assigned to a route pattern that is associated with that
route list.
|
|
Calling Party Transform Mask
|
Enter a transformation mask value. Valid entries for the National Numbering Plan
include the digits 0 through 9; the wildcard characters X, asterisk (*), and
octothorpe (#); the international escape character +; and blank. If this field
is blank and the preceding field is not checked, no calling party
transformation takes place.
|
Prefix Digits (Outgoing Calls)
|
Enter prefix digits in the Prefix Digits (Outgoing Calls)
field. Valid entries for the National Numbering Plan include the digits 0 through 9, the wildcard
characters asterisk (*) and octothorpe (#), the international escape character
+, and blank.
Note
|
The appended prefix digit does not affect which directory
numbers route to the assigned device.
|
|
Calling Line ID Presentation
|
Cisco Unified Communications Manager uses calling line
ID presentation (CLIP/CLIR) as a supplementary service to allow or restrict the
originating caller phone number on a call-by-call basis.
Choose whether you want the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to allow or
restrict the display of the calling party phone number on the called party
phone display for this route pattern.
Choose Default if you do not want to change calling line ID
presentation. Choose Allowed if you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to allow the
display of the calling number. Choose Restricted if you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to block the
display of the calling number.
|
Calling Name Presentation
|

presentation (CNIP/CNIR) as a supplementary service to allow or restrict the
originating caller name on a call-by-call basis.
Choose whether you want the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to allow or
restrict the display of the calling party name on the called party phone
display for this route pattern.
Choose Default if you do not want to change calling name
presentation. Choose Allowed if you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to display the
calling name information. Choose Restricted if you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to block the
display of the calling name information.
|
Calling Party Number Type
|
Choose the format for the number type in calling party
directory numbers.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager sets the calling
directory number (DN) type. Cisco recommends that you do not change the default
value unless you have advanced experience with dialing plans such as NANP or
the European dialing plan. You may need to change the default in Europe because
Cisco Unified Communications Manager does not recognize
European national dialing patterns. You can also change this setting when you
are connecting to a PBX that expects the calling directory number to be encoded
to a non-national numbering plan type.
Choose one of the following options:
- Cisco Unified Communications Manager—The
Cisco Unified Communications Manager sets the directory
number type.
- Unknown—Use when
the dialing plan is unknown.
- National—Use when
you are dialing within the dialing plan for your country.
- International—Use
when you are dialing outside the dialing plan for your country.
- Subscriber—Use
when you are dialing a subscriber by using a shortened subscriber number.
|
Calling Party Numbering Plan
|
Choose the format for the numbering plan in calling party
directory numbers.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager sets the calling
DN numbering plan. Cisco recommends that you do not change the default value
unless you have advanced experience with dialing plans such as NANP or the
European dialing plan. You may need to change the default in Europe because
Cisco Unified Communications Manager does not recognize
European national dialing patterns. You can also change this setting when you
are connecting to PBXs by using routing as a non national type number.
Choose one of the following options:
- Cisco Unified Communications Manager—Use when the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager sets the Numbering
Plan in the directory number.
- ISDN—Use when you
are dialing outside the dialing plan for your country.
- National
Standard—Use when you are dialing within the dialing plan for your country.
- Private—Use when
you are dialing within a private network.
- Unknown—Use when
the dialing plan is unknown.
|
Connected Party Transformations
|
Connected Line ID Presentation
|
Cisco Unified Communications Manager uses connected
line ID presentation (COLP/COLR) as a supplementary service to allow or
restrict the called party phone number on a call-by-call basis.
Choose whether you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to allow or
restrict the display of the connected party phone number on the calling party
phone display for this route pattern.
Choose Default if you do not want to change the connected line
ID presentation. Choose Allowed if you want to display the connected party
phone number. Choose Restricted if you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to block the
display of the connected party phone number.
If a call that originates from an IP phone on Cisco Unified Communications Manager encounters a device, such as a trunk,
gateway, or route pattern, that has the Connected Line ID Presentation set to Default, the presentation value is automatically
set to Allowed.
|
Connected Name Presentation
|
Cisco Unified Communications Manager uses connected
name presentation (CONP/CONR) as a supplementary service to allow or restrict
the called party name on a call-by-call basis.
Choose whether you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to allow or
restrict the display of the connected party name on the calling party phone
display for this route pattern.
Choose Default if you do not want to change the connected name
presentation. Choose Allowed if you want to display the connected party name.
Choose Restricted if you want
Cisco Unified Communications Manager to block the
display of the connected party name.
|
Called Party Transformations
|
Discard Digits
|
From the Discard Digits drop-down list box, choose the discard
digits instructions that you want to associate with this route pattern. The
discard digits that display depend on the numbering plan that you choose from
the Numbering Plan drop-down list box.
Note
|
The called party transformation settings that are assigned
to the route groups in a route list override any called party transformation
settings that are assigned to a route pattern that is associated with that
route list.
|
|
Called Party Transform Mask
|
Enter a transformation mask value. Valid entries for the National Numbering Plan
include the digits 0 through 9; the wildcard characters X, asterisk
