Managing the Dial Plan Configuration File 45
When you subsequently import this dial plan, these commands purge any
traces of the old dial plan and prevent any conflicts that can result from
importing one dial plan on top of an existing one.
You create new entries in the dial plan configuration file by typing in new
commands (see
Dial Plan Configuration File Commandson page 100)
or by cutting, pasting, and editing existing lines in the file.
When you cut and paste new lines into dial plan tables, be sure to change
the Entry number in the pasted line. If two or more lines have the same
Entry number, only the last one takes effect.
Importing and
Exporting Dial Plan
Configuration Files
You import a dial plan configuration file either to implement changes you
have made by editing the file, or to reload a previously saved
configuration.
From the Operations tab of the Dial Plan window, you can:
Import a North American Dial Plan
Import an International Dial Plan
This section concludes with a discussion of International Dial Plan Issues.
When you export the working dial plan, the NBX system constructs a new
configuration file from the values in the database and displays it. The new
file shows the current date and time. You name the file when you save it.
The sample default files include examples of such things as timed routes
and pretranslators. To preserve the default (sample) dial plan
configuration included with the system, 3Com advises you to choose a
unique file name different than any of the default (sample) dial plan
configuration files so that you do not overwrite the sample default files.
Import a North American Dial Plan
The default dial plan for the SuperStack 3 NBX system is
NorthAmerica-4-digit.txt. The default dial plan for the NBX 100
system is
NorthAmerica.txt. Some customized dial plans are provided
for use in other countries.
Always read the system Release Notes (called
readme.txt) for the most
up-to-date information on dial plans.
