V82 (Digits column)

The letter V (required, and must be a capital letter) 
indicates that this is a VPIM connection, and the 
82 indicates that the user must dial 82 to access 
the VPIM connection and then dial the extension 
the user wants to reach.

You can select any number of digits for a site 
code. The selected number must not conflict with 
other dial plan entries. This example assumes that 
82 is not used in any other way in the dial plan.

Long digit sequences can annoy telephone users 
and create the opportunity for dialing errors.

Min (5) Max (5)

Indicates that the total digit sequence dialed by 
the user is 5 digits. The first two digits are the site 
code (82 in this example) and the remaining 3 
digits are the destination extension.

Class (WAN)

Indicates that this call is classified as WAN. All 
VPIM calls have this classification.

Priority (0)

This field is unused by the dial plan; the default 
value is zero (0).

Route (532)

In this example, the VPIM connection to the other 
NBX system uses route 532. The route number 
must be unique in the dial plan and in the range of 
1–32768. 

This command creates route number 532 and 
gives it the name Atlanta VPIM Connection.

This command (mandatory for all VPIM routes) 
assigns route 532 to the extension list *0003. 

For DestinationRoute 532, entry 1, this command 
creates operation 1, which removes the first three 
digits, including the letter V, from the digit string, 
leaving only the extension that the user dialed.

For DestinationRoute 532, entry 1, this command 
creates operation 2, which places the string 
10*234*101*222* in front of the extension. This 
string represents the IP address of the target NBX 
system. You must use the star character (*) to 
separate the fields within the IP address and to 
separate the IP address from the extension field.
