[cisco-voip] Easy Ways to Mass Modify Dial Plans?

[ccieid1ot]

Why not add an intrasite prefix by using translation patterns.  Users can't
call other locations based on 4 digit anymore but by 5 digits.

Both require programming. Less programming oriented with better set
granularity may be phone export/import. Use BPS/BAT feature to export
phones, modify as desired, and import.

possibly based on the Device Pool of the phone it is assigned to or the
first digit of the existing DN. My general thought is basically to add what
I will tell the users is an internal area code.

something? While I understand programming to an extent. I don't have the
ability to write something from scratch so examples are welcome or
suggestions of better ways to handle this type of scenario. I've never had
to do something like this before and I want to keep it simple but give me
plenty of room to grow. I know some people advocate 10 digit extensions with
transformation and translations to allow 4 digit type dialing but something
of the scope I feel may be beyond my capacity to handle.
