Directory Lookup Dial Rule Configuration Settings
Directory lookup rules transform caller identification numbers into numbers that can be looked up in the
directory. Each rule specifies which numbers to transform based on the beginning digits and length of
the number. For example, you can create a directory lookup rule that automatically removes the area code
and 2 prefix digits from a 10-digit telephone, which would transform 4085551212 into 51212. If Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Attendant Console can match the number with a user in the
speed-dial entries of the attendant or in the directory, the attendant console displays the name in the Call
Detail window.
Table 39-1 describes the available settings in the Phone Configuration window. For more information
about related procedures, see the “Related Topics” section on page 39-4.
