[cisco-voip] International Calling Weirdness

[Jim Reed]

Just a last note while I try some of these other suggestions.

When I change the Route Pattern to 9.01145XXXXXXXX and the destination pattern in the dial peer to 901145T or 901145........ and prefix back on the 01145, the call goes through just fine.  If I set the Route Pattern 9.0145@ it doesn't work.  Or if I set the Route Pattern to 9.011XXXXXXXXXX and the destination pattern to 9011T or 9011.......... it doesn't work.  Seems to want something finite behind that 011.  Thanks for everyone's help on this.

Try changing the destination pattern to 9011T.  I believe as is it will strip the 901, leaving 14579282828, which isn't a valid number to send to the telco.  If you make the pattern 9011T, it will only send 4579282828 (so only starting with the country code).  Depending on your telco you may also have to force the type to international, which could be done using a translation-rule/profile, on the interface, or possibly a couple of other ways.  Reference the thread I started earlier this week about H.323 Gateway (Cisco) and Plan Type.

First off, thanks to Ryan, Jason and Scott for their replies.

An interesting note is that if I set up a Route Pattern with the exact number in it and a matching dial peer on the router at Locations B and C, the call goes through with no problem.  Here is what the default dial peer looks like and the modified one I put in the routers as a test.

dial-peer voice 400 pots
 description Outbound International Calls to PRI
 destination-pattern 901T
 port 0/1/0:23
 prefix 01


dial-peer voice 401 pots
 description Denmark Test
 destination-pattern 90114579282828
 port 0/1/0:23
 prefix 0114579282828

The Route Patterns in Call Manager have the entire number in the Route Pattern field and Discard Digits is set to none.  I would think if the problem was with the telco, it wouldn't work under any scenario yet it works just fine when I set it up this way.  I have tried several variations on the Route Pattern and Dial Peer using only portions of the number but none of them seem to work except for an exact match.  I'm still doing some additional testing.  Just wanted to pass this along in case it rang any bells for anyone.

Thank You...
