[cisco-voip] pound character in DNs

[Wes Sisk]

Note both of those use cases don't involve actual call control. THey are just forwarding points.

There used to be an issue with CTI control of DN's that started with *.  I believe this has been addressed in CTI, JTAPI, and TSP but some CTI applications may still have issues. UCCX and UCCE come to mind as applications of concern that may have issues with a DN that begin with a *.

i too use the * for special dialing, but i prefix it with special codes to allow for it's use elsewhere.

for example, *9 for long distance dialing with FACs, *77XXXXX for sending calls directly to voicemail.

the * and # is also used to program special features in the VG224 and VG248 analog gateways.

I use * in many places.

*XXXX CTI Route point for a transfer-to-voicemail device. the * is available to all phones. Been doing that for many years on many, many independent installs. No problems.

Hello eveyone

Quick question: Any drawbacks to using the pound character in DNs (e,g, *1000)? It will be only for unlogged phones so impact should be minimum. 

Any technical limitations, drawbacks, field-experience ?  

Thanks,
Ovidiu
