Hello All, Looking for a little guidance on Real Time Pattern Matching. We are attempting to block outbound 411 via when someone dials NXX-555-XXXX, The must common being NXX-555-1212. However, We have some outbound providers that consider any call to NXX-555-XXXX a directory assistance call. So simply making my pattern _NXX5551212 doesn't work. So as you can see from the lines below. If I Dial 321-555-1212 the call is being applied to _321NXXXXXX not my _NXX555XXXX. I assume because they are equally specific. Does anyone have any creative ideas to pattern match NXX-555-XXXX besides what I've done here? 1056 outbound _NXX555XXXX 1 Goto outbound-411,411,1 Block Dir Assist 1057 outbound _1NXX555XXXX 1 Goto outbound-411,411,1 Block Dir Assist 1776 outbound _321NXXXXXX 1 Goto outbound-cocoa,${EXTEN},1 Outbound 321 Catchall 1777 outbound _1321NXXXXXX 1 Goto outbound-cocoa,${EXTEN},1 Outbound 1321 Catchall Thanks Nick Olsen Network Operations (855) FLSPEED x106 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You could play with your pattern match to catch call to 1+AC+Number and just AC+Number using this same test since it's right-delimited.
