[cisco-voip] Destination Pattern Question

[Jonathan Charles]

The first two regular expression characters I learned were ^ and $
(beginning and ending of a string)... (BGP).

To be honest, I can't see how someone could say that the ^ means NOT...

However, I just found this:

[^ ] Matches a single character that is not contained within the brackets.
For example, [^abc] matches any character other than "a", "b", or "c".
[^a-z] matches any single character that is not a lowercase letter.

So, we are wrong, they are right... we suck.
