10 Appendix D: Dial Plans
The IP Phone SIP code will allow provisioning (via web browser) of the dial plan. A dial
plan gives the unit a map to determine when a complete number has been entered and
should be passed to the gatekeeper for resolution into an IP address. Dial plans are
expressed using the same syntax as used by MGCP NCS specification. The formal syntax
of the dial plan is described by the following notation:
DIGIT ::= "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9"
TIMER ::= "T" | "T"
LETTER ::= DIGIT | TIMER | "#" | "*" | "A" | "A" | "B" | "B" | "C" | "C"
| "D" | "D"
RANGE ::= "X" | "X" -- MATCHES ANY DIGIT
| "[" LETTERS "]" -- MATCHES ANY OF THE SPECIFIED LETTERS
LETTERS::= SUBRANGE | SUBRANGE LETTERS
SUBRANGE::= LETTER -- MATCHES THE SPECIFIED LETTER
| DIGIT "-" DIGIT -- MATCHES ANY DIGIT BETWEEN FIRST AND LAST
POSITION::= LETTER | RANGE
STRINGELEMENT::= POSITION -- MATCHES ANY OCCURRENCE OF THE POSITION
| POSITION "." -- MATCHES AN ARBITRARY NUMBER OF OCCURRENCES
INCLUDING 0
STRING ::= STRINGELEMENT | STRINGELEMENT STRING
STRINGLIST::= STRING | STRING "|" STRINGLIST
DIALPLAN::= STRING | "(" STRINGLIST ")"
A dial plan, according to this syntax, is defined either by a (case insensitive) string or by a
list of strings. Regardless of the above syntax, a timer is only allowed if it appears in the
last position in a string (12T3 is not valid). Each string is an alternate numbering scheme.
The unit will process the dial plan by comparing the current dial string against the dial
plan, if the result is under-qualified (partial matches at least one entry) then it will do
nothing further. If the result matches or is overqualified (no further digits could possibly
produce a match) then send the string to the gatekeeper and clear the dial string.
The timer Tis activated when it is all that is required to produce a match. The period of
timer Tis four (4) seconds. For example, a dial plan of (xxxT|xxxxx) will match
immediately if five (5) digits are entered, it will also match after a four (4) second pause
when three (3) digits are entered.
