Application Dial Rule Configuration Settings

The administrator uses dial rules configuration to add and sort the priority of dialing rules. Dial rules for
applications such as Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant automatic ally strip nu mbe rs
from or add numbers to telephone numbers that a user dials. For example, the dial rules automatically
add the digit 9 in front of a 7-digit telephone number to pr ovide a cce ss to an out side line .
For example, in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant, the assistant can perform a directory
search from the assistant console. The assistant can drag a nd drop t he di rec tory en try to the M y Cal ls
panel on the assistant console, which invokes a call to the number that is listed in the entry. The dial
rules apply to the number that is listed in the entry before the call gets made.
Table 38-1 describes the available settings in the Application Dial Rule Configuration window. For more
information about related procedures, see the “Related Topics” section on page 38-5.
