CUCM 8.x Append 9 or 91 on incoming calls

chmorin

Alright, time to look dumb on the internet to avoid breaking stuff.

I understand how to configure a translation pattern, CSS, and PT and apply that to the gateway so it will translate calling numbers into 9XXXXXXXXXX or 91XXXXXXXXXX.

What I don't understand is how to create a means for which to differentiate between local external calls and long distance external calls. How can I create a translation pattern that will tell if the calling number is local, and only add a '9', or tell if it is long distance, and add a '91'?

Any help or pointing me in the right direction will be appreciated.

I think it comes down to matching the "INTERNATIONAL", "NATIONAL" or "SUBSCRIBER" call type information element fields in the ISDN stream for inbound calls.

They go into this in the current INE CCVP video-on-demand series, but as this is (in parts) a subset of their CCIE:Voice offering it gets really deep. It covers localised and globalized numbering plans which are not at the current CCVP level. I've tried watching it but tend to glaze over.

INE do have a free video on this at CCIE Technology vSeminars but I can't recall if it covers inbound matching.

Now as to how to do it.... I'm still working through that as well.
