Example
A Swedish phone number in Stockholm has a number layout that looks like this:
Country code (
+46
); Area code (
08
); local number (
12345678
)
The dialing pattern then needs to be like this:
■
From within Stockholm: only dial the local number
12345678
■
From Gothenburg (within the country, outside the area code): dial
08 12345678
■
From outside of Sweden: dial:
+46 8 12345678
The 0 in front of 8 (in the area code) has to be removed when dialing this number from outside the country. This is there-
fore seen as a prefix to dial between area codes rather than part of the area code itself.

The systems should only be configured with the local ISDN number: 12345678, but with the correct area and country
code in the ISDN Zone. In the ISDN Zone the area code should be stored as just 8, since Cisco TMS will add a 0 in front
of it when dialing between Swedish area codes, and add +46 when dialing from outside Sweden.
code in the ISDN Zone. In the ISDN Zone the area code should be stored as just 8, since Cisco TMS will add a 0 in front
of it when dialing between Swedish area codes, and add +46 when dialing from outside Sweden.
There are some exceptions to these rules, but Cisco TMS is configured to implement these exceptions:
■
Some countries, like Norway, do not use area codes; the area code field in the ISDN zones in these countries
should therefore be left empty. An example of a valid number is +47 12345678.
