[DialPlanRule_Prefix] 
Defines the prefix number of the source or destination number. 
The valid value is up to 50 characters. The following syntax can 
be used: 
  0-9: Specific digit. 
  x: Wildcard denoting any digit from 0 through 9. 
  z: Denotes a number from 1 through 9. 
  n: Denotes a number from 2 through 9. 
  a-z: Lower-case letter. 
  A-Z: Upper-case letter. 
  *: (Asterisk symbol) If it is the only character in the rule, it 
denotes any number. To denote the asterisk "*" symbol itself, 
precede it with the escape "\\" character (see below). 
  \\: (Backslash escape character) When it prefixes a wildcard 
character (*, z, n, and x), the character itself is used and not 
the meta-meaning. For example, "\\x" denotes the character 
"x", while "x" is the wildcard denoting any digits from 0-9. 
  #: (Pound or hash symbol) When used at the end of the prefix 
it denotes the end of the number. For example, "54324#" 
represents a 5-digit number that starts with the digits 54324. 
 
(Period) Denotes any letter or digit.
