[cisco-voip] Volume 1 -- Section 6 (Dial Plan) question

[Michael Thompson]

In what I'm reading (CCO Docs) it says something about digit collection, but
they way it's explaining it doesn't really make sense (distinction between
single stage and two stage).  

Excerpt ***

With two-stage dialing, when a voice call enters the network, the
originating router collects dialed digits until it can match an outbound
dial peer. As soon as the router matches a dial peer, it immediately places
the call and forwards the associated dial string. No additional dialed
digits are collected. The digits and wildcards that are defined in the
destination pattern determine how many digits the originating router
collects before matching the dial peer. Any digits dialed after the first
dial peer is matched are dropped. 

 

I get that the digits that aren't match are essentially abandoned, I'm just
not sure what is the distinction between 2 stage and single stage.  Isn't
what is mentioned above the 'normal' behavior of a dial peer?

I could be wrong, but I believe two stage refers to using an auto attendant.

I'm going through and reviewing some of the material and there's a specific

comment that I'm stuck on.  Task 6.6, it states:

 

 

 

Enable DID for PSTN users dialing into CM/UCME (.i.e. 2-stage dialing must

not be used).  

 

 

 

I don't understand what they're referring to by 2-stage dialing.

 

 

 

Are they just looking for something as simple as the direct-inward-dial on

CME and making sure we're sending 4 significant digits on the Trunks of UC?
