Using CCP to Configure a CME Dial-Plan
If you prefer, you can also use the Cisco Configuration Professional (CCP) to modify the
CME dial-plan. Cisco neatly organized all dial-plan configurations in a Dial-Plans folder,
shown in Figure 6-17.
Figure 6-17
Configuring a Dial-Plan Using CCP
Notice that the first two items under the Dial-Plans folder of CCP is POTS and VoIP.
These correlate to the two categories of dial peers you most frequently configure in
CME. Selecting the POTS configuration item brings up the Create Dial-Plan menu. In an
attempt to ease the configuration, Cisco provides three wizard-like configuration items:
Create Incoming Dial-Plan: Allows you to configure inbound dial-peers using
PSTN trunks.
Create Outbound Dial-Plan: Allows you to configure outbound dial-peers using
PSTN trunks. The wizard also provides you the ability to specify access digits (such
as dialing 9 for an outside line) and caller ID information.
Import Outgoing Dial-Plan Template: Allows you to import a dial-plan from a
CSV file template.
After you get more comfortable with the CME configuration, you will likely access the
Dial Peers tab (next to the Create Dial-Plans tab shown in Figure 6-17). In this configura-
tion pane, you can create manually configured dial peers through a GUI configuration.
Figure 6-18 shows the creation of a ten-digit dialing PSTN dial peer.
