Command History

Usage Guidelines The translate command allows you to select a preconfigured number translation rule to modify the

number dialed by a specific extension (ephone-dn). The called keyword translates the called number,

and the calling keyword translates the calling number.

Note For the translate command to take effect, appropriate translation rules should be created on the VoIP

configuration level.

Translation rules are a powerful general purpose number manipulation mechanism supported by

Cisco IOS that can be used to perform operations such as automatically adding telephone area and prefix

codes to dialed numbers. The translation rules are applied to the voice ports created by the ephone-dn.

Examples The following example shows how to set translation rule 20 to the number called by the Cisco IP phone:

called Translate the called number.

calling Translate the calling number.

translation rule tag The tag number by which the rule set is referenced. This is an arbitrarily

chosen number. The range is 1 to 2,147,483,647.
