Alias and Call Routing Configuration: Alias Macros
8-39
This example displays a comment on its own line in the Application String field and a
comment after a macro in the Alternate Route field.
Note: The pound sign (#) can be entered as part of the macro string if it is enclosed
in either single or double quotes. The pound sign may be either directly
enclosed (=A+’#’+D(C)), or the string that the pound sign resides in may be
enclosed (=‘198.127.1.4#23’).
Constants
Macro constants are either fixed alphanumeric characters enclosed in single or
double quotes or integers between positive and negative 2,147, 483, 647. All strings
equal zero. Strings cannot be used in mathematical functions.
Varia bles
Several variables are recognized by macros. Refer to Table 8-18 for more
information.
Note: Variables are not case-sensitive.
Wildcard Symbols
Macros have two available wildcard symbols:
z? matches any single character.
z* matches zero or more characters.
Note: Alias names that use wildcards are not really macros. Wildcards are not
processed in alias names that start with ‘=’.
