Yes, I understand in the real world the new method has tons of advantages in
regards to simplifying the dialplan if designed properly.
But for the LAB the new method in my opinion has far less flexibility.
*2 examples:*
1. If I need backup gateways for a route pattern then "standard rl/rg" would
Hi Mike,
I would get used to the new features and the new way to tackle the dial
plan, as they, in many cases will optimize the call routing configurations,
lets think about your example, if you would have used cd xform patterns,
only one route pattern and rl/ rg would have been used, also think i
Thanks Otto.
Yes I would not use standard local route groups if I had the option not to,
but am exploring methods if forced to use standard local route groups based
on requirements of the lab.
For call routing what was your approach... old school ..or new school ?
and why ?
Thanks,
Mike Bro
Hi Mike,
If using old school method, I think you wouldn't be using local route group
concept as well, right?. In that case you will need two separate RP, two
different RL/RG, in which case you can perform manipulations in RG within RL
and send the leading 9 only to the h.323 gw,
If still want to
ahh..yes very good point... I have been moving away from the "new school"
routing methods lately because of some of the flexibility issues I have ran
into while using it.
For instance ANI manipulation based on the type of call.
I do prefer sticking to the "old school" routing method if possible,
Mike (sorry, missed to copy the list on first try),
You are missing one option, which is the one I like most.
For almost all situations, I would go about using Calling Party
Transformations and Called Party Transformations.
Since these are device specific, you would make a Called Party
Transform
Just want to know how most would handle this type of scenario. It appears
there are multiple ways to configure this.
9.[2-9]XX -> Standard Local RL (must strip predot because HQ is mgcp
gw)

Standard Local Route Group: HQ-MGCP-RG
