Alias and Call Routing Configuration: Alias Macros

Alias Macro Configuration

Often there are several ways to write a macro and get the same result. One 
programmer will likely design macros differently than another.



Note: From the Alias Menu, you can input a string with 

*

 in it and the search will 

break apart the string using 

*

 as a delimiter. The search checks the alias list 

for an alias name that contains the components. It does not limit the search to 
the beginning and end of text of the alias as in AI198.

This example displays an alias where:

z

Alias name 

172.16.32.237#30*

 matches source address 172.16.32.237 with a 

port number of 30 followed by zero or more characters

z

The caller’s address is 

PVC

z

Call data 

='ASY.'+D((V(?(1))%6)+1)

 creates strings from 

ASY.1

 to 

ASY.6

.

This example displays an alias where:

z

Alias name 

43042*

 matches source addresses that start with 43042 and may 

end with zero or more characters

z

Called Address 

='ASY.'+D((V(?(1))%6)+1)

 creates a called address string of 

ASY.1

 through 

ASY.6
