it means, if caller (09818123456) call 43148161 then asterisk forward it to 009999790061. And for your information it is working fine. The problem is, if CID number is come like 919818123456 instead of 09818123456, it means prefix is changed; then our dial will not work.
I think, for solving this problem, I should used regular expression so that only match the last 10 digits and ignore prefix (it can be single zero ‘0’ or ‘91’, like in our case). But I don’t know the implementation of this solution.
So, please suggest me that how should I implement it or other solution, if exist of this problem.
You cannot do what you want to do. You must include the number both with and without the initial 9. Asterisk regular expressions are not sufficienty powerful.
I rather new to the Asterisk world, but I’m no stranger to VoIP systems (Cisco, Nortel, etc)
I was looking at the Asterisk pattern matching, and it look suspiciously much like Regex.
I was considering trying something like this, from the RegEx world:
Prefix 9[1]?(?:345)?
Match Pattern 322XXXX
This would allow for:
91 345-322-1234 -> send to local trunk 322-1234
9 345-322-1234 -> send to local trunk 322-1234
9 322-1234 -> send to local trunk 322-1234
Is this level of complexity supported in Asterisk dial plan/patterns?
Since you can write an AGI in the language of your choice, you can ‘regex’ to your hearts content and set CONTEXT, EXTENSION, and PRIORITY as desired. Or, (and probably a more maintainable avenue) set a channel variable and use the gotoif() application in your dialplan.
Just a suggestion…

I appreciate the response, and especially the clarification.
I just wanted to check, before plunking in a bunch of exotic dial plan patterns.
While researching the matter, I ran across some things that insinuated the Asterisk pattern matching was essential the same as regular expressions.
Based on the similarities, I was hopeful, but I had my suspicions the Asterisk patterns aren’t.
I will investigate the REGEX and agi functions, and post a new thread accordingly, if I have questions.
For what is worth, if there was a RegEx option flag, for Dial Plans, that would be sweet.
Thanks!
