Configuring E.164 Addresses
Configuring E.164 Address Autoconversion
If your network uses E164_ZDSP or E164_AESA addresses, you can configure E.164 address
autoconversion. The E164_ZDSP and E164_AESA addresses include an embedded E.164 number in the
E.164 portion of an E.164 ATM address. This embedded E.164 number is used in the autoconversion
process.
For a detailed description of the E.164 autoconversion feature and differences in the autoconversion
process between the E164_ZDSP and E164_AESA address formats, refe r to the Guide to ATM
Technology.
Note Enter access lists for E.164 addresses in the E164_AESA format, not the native E.164 format. For
example, if the E.164 address is 7654321, then the E164_AESA format is
45.000000007654321F00000000.000000000000.00. To filter prefix “765,” enter the prefix
45.00000000765..., not just 765.... Access lists operate on the called and calling party IEs. See
Chapter 12, “Using Access Control.”.
E.164 address autoconversion configuration is the same, regardless of which type of address
(E164_ZDSP or E164_AESA) your network uses. To configure E.164 address autoconversion, perform
the following steps, beginning in global configuration mode:
Examples
In the following example a static route is configured on interface 0/0/1 using the ATM address of the
ATM switch router on the opposite side of the E.164 public network; E.164 autoconversion is also
enabled:
Switch(config)# atm route 45.000007654321111F atm 0/0/1
Switch(config)# interface atm 0/0/1
Switch(config-if)# atm e164 auto-conversion
The converse configuration is done at the ATM switch router across the E.164 network; a static route is
configured to the ATM address of the above switch, and E.164 autoco nversion is enabled:
Switch(config)# atm route 45.000001234567777F atm 0/0/1
Switch(config)# interface atm 0/0/1
Switch(config-if)# atm e164 auto-conversion
Command Purpose
Step1 Switch(config)# atm route address-prefix atm
card/subcard/port
[e164-address address-string [number-type
{international | local | national | subscriber}]]
[internal] [scope org-scope]
At the configure prompt, configures the static
route prefix with the E.164 address.
Step2 Switch(config-if)# interface atm
card/subcard/port
Switch(config-if)#
Selects the ATM interface.
Step3 Switch(config-if)# atm e164 auto-conversion Configures E.164 autoconversion.
Step4 Switch(config-if)# exit
Switch(config)#
Returns to global configuration mode.
