[cisco-voip] advantages/disadvantages to using forward-digits vs prefix is dial-peers

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Just wondering if anyone has any advice or comments regarding using forward-digits vs prefix in dialpeers. Anyone find that one is easier to maintain or troubleshoot?

For example, if I want to send out 411 calls, I have these two options as far as I can tell:

!
dial-peer voice 411 pots
 destination-pattern 9411
 port 3/0:23
 forward-digits 3
!

OR

!
dial-peer voice 411 pots
 destination-pattern 9411
 port 3/0:23
 prefix 411
!

Comments?
