NBX NetSet 
Administration 
UtilityThe NBX NetSet Administration utility is an HTML-based web interface in 
which you configure and manage the NBX system. You need a web 
browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, to administer the system. 
Internet Explorer version 5.5 is optimal. (You do not need Internet access.) 
Figure 1

DIAL PLAN
The NBX system’s dial plan determines how the system handles calls. It 
defines the set of destinations that the system can reach, how to get to 
these destinations, and which telephone numbers to dial to reach these 
destinations. This chapter provides information about understanding, 
developing, and managing the dial plan. It covers these topics: 
■Dial Plan Concepts and Overview
■Dial Plan Tables
■Dial Plan Pretranslators
■Managing the Dial Plan Configuration File

28CHAPTER 2: DIAL PLAN
Dial Plan Concepts 
and OverviewThe dial plan configuration file is an ASCII text file that implements the 
dial plan and specifies pretranslation (digit manipulation). The system is 
shipped with several default dial plan configuration files, typically, a 
3-digit and a 4-digit file for each supported country.
The dial plan configuration file includes several tables:
■Internal — Must be table ID 1
■Incoming — Must be table ID 2
■Least Cost Routing — Must be table ID 3
■Routes...

Dial Plan Concepts and Overview29
Call Process FlowThe dial plan configuration file is a key component of inbound and 
outbound call processing. The dial plan tables in the configuration file 
process incoming calls in this order:
1Incoming Dial Plan Table
2Pretranslator Table
The dial plan tables process outgoing calls in this order:
1Internal Dial Plan Table
2Least Cost Routing Table
After pretranslation (if performed), the final translation process routes the 
call to the destination.
Inbound and...

30CHAPTER 2: DIAL PLAN
NBX System DatabaseThe NBX system database contains a default dial plan that is initially 
loaded at the factory and is reloaded if you purge the database. The 
default dial plan for the SuperStack 3 NBX system is a 4-digit plan; for the 
NBX 100, it is a 3-digit plan.
Changes that you make to any system settings, including changes made 
by importing a modified dial plan configuration file, are reflected in the 
database. When you reboot the system, it loads the database with any...
