I haven’t been into CUCM for a while so maybe the answer to this is obvious, but do E.164 numbers in CUCM actually have to be entirely numbers? In MS Lync, your E.164 number is more of a “tel:” URI than an actual number. So for phones with no DID, we set them as +1XXXYYYYYYY;exten=ZZZZ where XXXYYYYYYY is the receptionist’s DID and ZZZZ is the phone’s internal extension. Apparently this is a valid way of specifying a tel URI, which is nice because it preserves global uniqueness without resorting to making up fake phone numbers.
For outbound PSTN calls, the Cisco gateways are smart enough (too stupid?) that they ignore the exten=ZZZZ and just sends the +1XXXYYYYYYY as outbound caller ID. For internal 4-digit calling, translations created in Lync convert ZZZZ back into the full +1XXXYYYYYYY;exten=ZZZZ. Can CUCM do something like that? If not then maybe I finally just stumbled upon one thing I actually like better in Lync than CUCM. ;-) -mn From: cisco-voip [mailto:cisco-voip-boun...@puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of Bernhard Albler Sent: September 21, 2017 8:26 AM To: Ben Amick <bam...@humanarc.com> Cc: cisco-voip voyp list <cisco-voip@puck.nether.net> Subject: Re: [cisco-voip] e164 dialplan conversion >What advantage/purpose does switching to an e164 dial plan afford you?

With e164 i am using a globally unique id for each DN and this resolves a lot of issues. Also these days i expect entries in directories to be e164 because of other clients (mobile phones) requiring it. >More importantly, how would an e164 dial plan mesh with a system where the >majority of users do not have DIDs or DIDs that do not match their >extension >plan? Non DID: well, you fake it mostly and create some crazy fake patterns. In that case it is certainly not pretty non matching extensions: Again, this can be fixed with translations (and automation). Even for the non matching extension case i prefer e164, but this is just my personal opinion >Is any additional overhead generated by going to an e164 dial plan? Hard to say. There are some disadvantages (e.g. the extra Translations for internally dialing) that might limit scale. >Also, from what I understand, 4-5digit dialing is made possible only by having >proper CSS per site with a translation pattern, not through any function of >>the DN configuration, correct? Yes or you use alternate enterprise number and put it into another partition. But in that case there are some stupid corner cases with CURRI and also CDRs. So translations are kind of the cleanest solution. Personally for me flexibility and a clean concept are just easier to achieve with e164. but that is just a personal opinion On Thu, Sep 21, 2017 at 4:17 PM, Ben Amick <bam...@humanarc.com<mailto:bam...@humanarc.com>> wrote: Inexperienced person here chiming in with a question: What advantage/purpose does switching to an e164 dial plan afford you?

You can also run a sql update against the numplan table which will do 2 things: 1.)I you typoed you are in for a lot of pain 2.)Ucm will load up on change notification (assuming lots of DNs) and might come to halt before recovering ccx: Agent DNs in my experience will reflect automatically. Routepoints and CTI ports you will need to change manually. Personally i suggest the SQL route as the adrenaline rush is just incredible once you realize you made a mistake.

Is there a way to change dialplan entries on CUCM and UCCX without having to either individually touch each dialplan pattern or without deleting and reimporting/recreating? Has anyone seen or used AXL/SOAP to automate modification of dialplan patterns, or used PCP or some third party product to accomplish this? Thanks for any feedback.
