Uniform Dial Plan
Uniform Dial Plan (UDP) provides a common 4- or 5-digit dial plan (specified in the
Dial Plan Record) that can be shared among a group of switches. Interswitch dialing
and intraswitch dialing both require 4- or 5-digit dialing. UDP is used with an
electronic tandem network (ETN); main, satellite, and tributary switches; and
Distributed Communications Systems (DCS). In addition, UDP can provide uniform
4- or 5-digit dialing between 2 or more private-switching systems without ETN, main,
satellite, and tributary switches, or DCS.
How to administer UDP
Note: On the Uniform Dialing Plan form, if you change the Ext Code
and Type fields from a 4-digit or 5-digit extension number to
none, a warning message informs you that all UDP extension
codes will be lost. The same warning message displays when you
change the Ext Code and Type extension numbers from 4-digits
to 5-digits or from 5-digits to 4-digits.
Detailed description UDP routes calls off the local switch by converting the extension number into a
private-network number with 7 digits. This number is formed by prepending a 3-digit
code (of the form XXX) to the (last) 4 digits of the extension number. 3 types of
conversion are supported: UDPCode, AARCode, and ENPNode.
For UDPCode and AARCode, XXX is a 3-digit private-network location code,
and the result is analyzed and routed via Automatic Alternate Routing (AAR).
UDPCode conversion prohibits digit conversion via AAR; AARCode conversion
permits it, just as if you dialed the AAR number instead of the extension.
For ENPCode, XXX is called an Extension Number Portability (ENP) code. It is
not used for routing; node-number routing is used instead. The ENP code is
chosen based on the first 1 or 2 digits of the dialed string. Because it is not used
for routing, the ENPCode can be independent of location.
