
Tag: The tag corresponds to the matched prefix of the source and/or destination
number and is the categorization result.
You can use various syntax notations for configuring the prefix numbers in dial plan rules.
You can configure the prefix as a complete number (all digits) or as a partial number using
some digits and various syntax notations (patterns) to allow the device to match a dial pan
rule for similar source and/or destination numbers. For more information, see the
description of the 'Prefix' parameter (DialPlanRule_Prefix) described later in this section.
The device employs a "best-match" method instead of a "first-match" method to match the
source/destination numbers to prefixes configured in the dial plan. The matching order is
done digit-by-digit and from left to right. The numbers are first matched to the rule
configured with the most constrained (specific) character set. Most constrained implies that
the dial plan pattern that has the fewest possible matches for a digit is matched first. For
example, if one rule contains the "x" wildcard character, which has ten possible matches
(i.e., 0-9) and another rule a specific digit (e.g., 4), the rule with the specific digit is selected
as the matching rule. The following examples show how the best-matching method is done.
Each example has two dial plan rules which are shown listed in chronological order as they
would be configured in the table.

For incoming calls with prefix number "5234", the rule with tag B is chosen (more
specific for digit "4"):
523x,A
5234,B

For incoming calls with prefix number "5234", the rule with tag B is chosen (more
specific for digit "4"):
523x,A
523[1-9],B

For incoming calls with prefix number "53211111", the rule with tag B is chosen (more
specific for fourth digit):
532[1-9]1111,A
5321,B

For incoming calls with prefix number "53124", the rule with tag B is chosen (more
specific for digit "1"):
53([2-4]),A
531(4),B

For incoming calls with prefix number "321444", the rule with tag A is chosen and for
incoming calls with prefix number "32144", the rule with tag B is chosen:
321xxx,A
321,B

For incoming calls with prefix number "5324", the rule with tag B is chosen (prefix is
more specific for digit "4"):
532[1-9],A
532[2-4],B
Note: Currently, the first-match method is used between rules with the same number
of digits in the first level (e.g., "532") and anything in the second level (enclosed digits,
e.g., "[1-9]"). For the example, the device currently chooses the rule with tag A.

For incoming calls with prefix number "53124", the rule with tag B is chosen (suffix is
more specific for digit "4"):
53([2-4]),A
53(4),B
Note: Currently, the first-match method is used between rules with the same number
of digits in the first level (e.g., "53") and anything in the second level (enclosed digits,
e.g., "(4)"). For the example, the device currently chooses the rule with tag A.
