7 or 9 digit dial plan for G3si V 7 1

[PhoneK]

We currently have a 4-digit dial plan with udp codes. I need to implement a way that this PBX can dial out a 3-5 digit code followed by a 4-digit extension across our VoIP network. We have an ISDN trunk so I can't utilize TAC and we also do not have private networking on so I cannot utilize the AAR access code feature (Avaya states we would have to upgrade our system). Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can send out more than 4-digits to the AAR dial string?

as long as the first digit is AAR or one of the ARS codes you should not have an issue.

ARS and AAR have digit-conversion, and both use digit manipulation when routing calls via ARS and AAR analysis

Unfortunately that feature ARS/AAR shortcut (when I try to assign that to the first digit) is not assigned. I went to sys cust opt and it is set to no. Avaya won't change this unless I do an upgrade. Any other suggestions?

Hardware Platform? Definity / CM software version?

Software Load: G3V8i.01.0.025.4
Memory Configuration: G3siV8

If I try and add something to AAR Access Code it tells me that "Private Networking feature not assigned". Another customer option that is set to no.

There are several ways this can be done. You can use ARS access code as the first digit

9 2222 1001
9 2222 1002

Use ars analysis or digit conversion to route to a facility where you send the last 4 digits.

Thanks, I did try using the ARS table for this but ran into conflicts with local/long distance min/max digits. Based on your suggestion, I am going to do some research on digit-manipulation and see how that works.
Thanks for your replies!

This is poor man's UDP (uniform dialplan) with no private networking turned on.

9 2222 1001
9 2222 1002

These should not conflict with local or LD numbers

min 8 max 8 route to route pattern, delete 4 digits (2222)

The last 4 will be sent to the trunk-group

you could also shorten it to 9 + 6 with no conflicts

9221001
9221002

min 6 max 6 route to route pattern, delete 2 digits (22)

Thanks, but I won't be able to use the example of 2222. The network protocol is to use a 3-digit code (city that facility is in) for example Los Angeles would be LAX (529)then followed by the 4-digit extension. Since this utilizes 7-digits and my local dialing utilizes 7-digits, I have a conflict with anyone dialing 529 as a local prefix. Now, if I added another digit before the 529, say an 8, so it would be 9,8529xxxx, my min/max are different from local dialing (7/7 vs. 8/8), would there be no conflict in the ARS dialing plan then?

 

[PhoneK]

I implement8 before my 7 digit number and after the 9 access code and it worked great. I was also not able to produce a conflict with my local calling scheme.
Thank you again for your help!
