[cisco-voip] dial delay with POTS lines

[Paul Choi]

Curt,

How specific are your dial peers?

If you have a 9T set for all outbound calls, then that
will be your problem.

As best practice, you want to make your dial peers as
specific as possible.

e.g.,

local dial peer ..

destination-pattern 9[2-9]......T

long distance dial peer

destination-pattern 91[2-9]..[2-9]......
forward-digits 11

10-digit local calling 

destination-pattern 9[2-9]..[2-9]......


You'll also want to change the timer interdigit
parameter to 5 seconds underneath telephony-service.
