Aastra Telecom 41-001343-02 manual Pattern Rules and Syntax

Operational Features

This parameter is useful in such cases where a call manager will intentionally modify the display name according to a specific scenario. For example, if a Manager forwards an incoming call to an employee, the call manager may modify the display name to state “--> [Manager’s Name] Caller’s Name”. With the “directory lookup suppression pattern” parame- ter configured for “-->” pattern matching, the IP phone will bypass the local directory lookup and the phone’s screen will display the call as intended by the call manager.

Pattern Rules and Syntax

The customized display name must start with the pattern. The patterns that can be configured include the following reg- ular expressions:

•“-->x+”

•“==>x+”

•“@@@x+”

•“aaax+”

Additionally, the pattern syntax supports the regular expression to specify multiple OR combined patterns (e.g. “-- >x+==>x+aaax+”).

Notes:

•Pattern matching is only applied for incoming calls and against the From header display name for incoming calls.

•Pattern matching is applied to shared lines.

•Pattern matching is not applied against the display name in the P-Asserted-Identity (PAI) header.
