Hello all
I want to force extension to dial 9 then call number outside. What should to do to achive this?

Currently we can make external call directly by dial number.

Thank you
 
You're in South America, the system is using A-Law, and there is a System Short Code of ? / Dial / . / 50:Main
Is this correct?

Remove that short code
Add 9N / Dial / N / 50:Main
Change the Dial Delay (sec) to 4
Change the Dial Delay Count to 0

This will affect ALL extensions, they will ALL have to dial 9 and number to get out.

 
...the only question would be why?

Why would you want to make it more difficult to dial numbers? External dialing prefixes are a legacy from the days of electromechanical phone systems.

Stuck in a never ending cycle of file copying.
