[VoiceOps] Switching dial out using "8" instead of "9"

[Rod.Dossouvi.CTR at dot.gov]

No plan to change 911 to 8911. 

I see how the 911 change can cause some legal issue... :-)

Correct.  Phones, feature servers, switches, all can play a role in the
"dial 9 for an outside line" function.  On-hook dialing can be treated
differently than off-hook.

Are you planning to change emergency dialing from 911 to 8911?  You may
want some legal cover here...

Reconfiguring the dial plan on whatever system is requiring the 9, if
that's even possible.  Some systems have this hard coded.

Hi, 

What needs to take place in order to change dial out from "9" to "8"? 

 

Thanks.
