Example of Netplanet Trunk gateway group settings.

Outbound caller ID

As we can choose our own range of extensions after the pilot-number, we just select our own extension ^(.*) and put it into the variable $1. As the provider wants the signalling number in the format (international prefix)(country-code)(city-code)(number), you have to enter this number into the next line (here: 00431123456$1, where the $1 represents the changing part).

For external calls, we will present e.g. 00431123456789 to the provider, and he will take care about the correct representation to the called party.

Asserted Identity

These fields are used specially for external forwardings. Some providers need special settings in order to present the correct number at the receiving party. For the Netplanet Trunk, you can use the pilot number e.g. ^(.*) and 00431123456

Inbound DIDs

For incoming calls, you can use the regular expression, generated by the setup assistant. In your case you would have to adjust the city-code and the pilot-number, according to your line-settings.

^(?:(?:(?:0043|\+43|43|0)?1)?123456)?(.*)

This expression cuts all possibly available country- and city-codes and the pilot-number from the incoming number and only the extension is remaining (here: 789). This will be forwarded to the Inbound Routes.

Inbound caller ID

It is not necesarry to add an additional 0 in front of the external number of the caller. In this case check also the dial-command in the SIP gateway. remove the :1 after 'number'.

Gateways

This field will be empty when you create this Gateway group. It will show later the assigned SIP gateways.

Registrar

Enter here the DNS name of the SIP-server, here: ms1.call.carrier66.net

Dial command

The dial command is the command which is used in the asterisk software.

The term {number:1} would mean, that at the dialled number (e.g. 001987654321) the first digit is removed. If you don't use a line access code (in most cases '0' is used), you have to remove the ':1' ! ! ! (here the :1 is removed)

The term {prefix} before {number} is used for the outbound rules. If you have entered a prefix value in the outbound rules, this prefix will be added in front of the dialled number.

Group

Select here the previously created gateway group.

Update remote party ID (CLIP)

The A-number is presented automatically for forwarded calls to 3rd parties. Therefore this setting can be left on its default setting.

Advanced Parameter

You have the possibility to enter different terms into the advanced settings for example 'fromuser=123456789' (here are no parameters needed). Enter these terms separately into in the value-field and press the '+'-sign.

Underneath you will see then a preview of the entry in the sip.conf file.

Rule

Enter here a name for the according rule.

Date / Weekdays / Time

With these settings you can configure a time-controlled routing to different targets.

Pattern / Target

In the pattern you define which part of the incoming number is used to forward the call to the according extension.

In our example we receive already the correct extension from the gateway group. Therefore no further number-manipulation is necessary.

When the PBX finds an according extension it will route the call to it.

But you can add here exceptions from this rule (e.g. when using pilot-number-only!), for example if you want to forward the incoming call to an internal fax or waiting queues, etc.

Please have in mind the order of these rules, as the system is using First Match!!!

Pattern

In the pattern you define how the outside line is seized. In our example all dialled numbers starting with '0' will use the Gateway group Netplanet Trunk.
