Configuring Dial Plans About Dial Plans 8 When a user lifts a handset or presses a speaker button on the IP phone, the following sequence of events begins: 1. The phone begins collecting the dialed digits. The inter-digit timers starts tracking the time that elapses between digits. 2. If the inter-digit timer value is reached, or if another terminating event occurs, the phone compares the dialed digits with the IP phone's dial plan. (This dial plan is configured in the web administration user interface in the Voice tab, on the tab for each extension (Ext N), under the Dial Plan section.) If the phone is part of a Cisco SPA 9000 system: 3. If the phone dial plan allows the call to process, the dialed numbers are sent to the Cisco SPA 9000. 4. The Cisco SPA 9000 compares the dialed digits to the CALL ROUTING RULE (on the SPA 9000 Voice > SIP page, PBX Parameters section). 5. If the call routing rule allows the call to process, then the Cisco SPA 9000 compares the dialed digits to the LINE INTERFACE dial plan (on the Cisco SPA 9000 Voice > Line N page, Dial Plan section). 6. The Cisco SPA 9000 uses the information in the line dial plan to manipulate the number (for example, to remove steering digits) and then transmits the number.
