Communications Manager Express Voice Translation Rules

When receiving or performing a call from or to PSTN, the called/called number must be adapted to the receiving network Dial Plan, thus we need to perform a customized dial numbers conversion called: Voice Translation rule. In this document, we will see how to configure translation rules and apply translations profiles to a voice port on Cisco Communications Manger Express.

Step 1:Create a translation rule

!
voice translation-rule number
 rule precedence /match-pattern/ /replace-pattern/
!

Example:

!
voice translation-rule 10
 rule 1 /1235551111/ /1235552222/
!

Step 2:Create a translation profile

voice translation-profile name
 translate {called | calling | redirect-called | redirect-target} translation-rule- 
 number

Example:

!
voice translation-profile incoming-transformation
 translate called 10
!

Step 3: Apply the rule to a voice gateway

!
voice-port 0/0/0:23
 translation-profile direction profile-name
!

Example:

!
voice-port 0/0/0:23
 translation-profile incoming incoming-transformation
!
