I have searched for documentation on the format of the "Dial Now Rule" field, but I cannot find anything. By exporting the config, I found that the value is stored in Config.DialNow.GENERAL.rulelist. By experimentation, I have found that the format is similar to section 2.1.5 of RFC 3435: 0-9, *, and # match the dialed digit/character
x can be used to match any digit/character
[] can be used to match one of a set of characters
| is used to separate rules
The one feature that I need but is not supported is the use of '.' to indicate "0 or more of the previous digit/character". Is there any proper documentation of this field from Akuvox? Is there any support of the feature where you can match zero or more digits/characters?
I have quite a few R15P phones.
We have a rather complicated dialplan in our facility which includes several entries where the final number of digits is unknown, such as dialing out to other countries over PSTN. We also use this for some of our phone system features, such as speed dial where we don't know the length of the speed dial bin number in advance. These digitmap / dialplan features work on other phones, such as Poly, Cisco, and Grandstream.
Our users are used to dialing the desired number and having the call automatically start after a 3 second timeout, and we have received complaints that they are forced to press the Send button on the R15P.
We have also run into a limitation where the R15P can only accept up to 10 DialNow entries, whereas our digitmap / dialplan currently has 27 entries.
