[cisco-voip] International calls on an H.323 gateway

[Bruce Enders]

I have a Cisco 7750 system that uses a PRI for connection to the local 
CO. When they make international calls to the local telco they strip the 
011 on the front of the string sent to telco. (Because the router 
annotates the ISDN call as an international call when the call is sent 
to the telco switch and the switch prepends 011 to the call). That all 
works just fine. The dial-peer in use is simple:

dial-peer voice 103 pots
 numbering-type national
 destination-pattern 9011T
 progress_ind setup enable 3
 fax rate disable
 port 1/0/0:23

Recently they have had to make calls to a destination where the 
country/office code is 411. So the dial string coming from CallManager 
looks like 9011411XXXXXXXX. Well, since they strip the 011, the router 
determines that this a "National" call. Then passes the call to the CO. 
The CO sees a national call starting with 411. They simply connect the 
call to 411 directory services. If I prefix the 011 to the string, the 
router then determines that this is an "international" call and 
annotates it as such. The telco switch prepends 011 on the front, and 
now the call goes to reorder because the CO sees 011011411XXXXXXXXXX. 
Setting the numbering-type on the dial-peer has no effect.
I know I am overlooking the obvious on this one. I didn't build their 
dial plan, and there are a number of things I would change, but this all 
seemed reasonable until they wanted to call a 411 country/office code.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Bruce
