[cisco-voip] Ughh Route Filters and Route Patterns

Fri Mar 28 16:00:29 EDT 2008

Put the list in a spreadsheet and order them based on areacode and exchange. Then start creating regexp to make clauses.

Each route filter has a maximum of 1024 characters.

Here's a sample of mine.

      519 212 Hespeler ON 21[23567] 
      519 213 Breslau ON | 
      519 215 Orangeville ON | 
      519 216 Orangeville ON | 
      519 217 Orangeville ON V 
      519 220 Hespeler ON 22[01234] 
      519 221 Hespeler ON | 
      519 222 Hespeler ON | 
      519 223 Hespeler ON | 
      519 224 Hespeler ON V 
      519 230 Hespeler ON 23[09] 
      519 239 Hespeler ON V 

      (LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519 AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND OFFICE-CODE == 21[23567]) OR 
      (OFFICE-CODE == 22[01234] AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519) OR 
      (LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519 AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND OFFICE-CODE == 23[09]) OR 
      (OFFICE-CODE == 24[012489] AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519 AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST) OR 
      (OFFICE-CODE == 26[015] AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519) OR 
      (OFFICE-CODE == 27[78] AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519) OR 
      (OFFICE-CODE == 288 AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519) OR 
      (OFFICE-CODE == 30[78] AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519 AND TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST) OR 
      (TRANSIT-NETWORK-ESCAPE DOES-NOT-EXIST AND LOCAL-AREA-CODE == 519 AND OFFICE-CODE == 31[345]) 

For help, you can use www.localcallingguide.com I run a wget every Monday and compare them to the last file I used and give me the differences using diff.
