hi need help i want call to number with * like call number *166
my 3cx is disconct when i call nubmer with *
 
*1 corresponds to an internal dial code, specifically the pickup of a parked call. So when dialing *1XX the system will look for a parked call and try to pick that up.

I would not recommend messing with the dial codes so you could try to dial something else and strip it at the outbound rules and then prepend the *166.

For example you could dial 5555 (make sure that does not correspond to a PBX extension) and have your outbound rule strip 4 digits and prepend *1666.2025-09-03_10h45_42.png

Try it and let us know if that works for you

in my country myne number start with * all number govermet start with *
 
I cant believe that... Which country is it?
This does indeed exist in the specific country, but from what we can tell it is limited to a small set of numbers and services - that can also be network dependent.

As mentioned by Yiannis, on the PBX level the way to handle would be to use some other digit and replace it with the * in an outbound rule. Although no longer needed generally, a dial 9 for an outside line type scenario could be used.

@marlen1 , you would also need to check with your Trunk provider if/how these numbers are handled by them.
 
israel

but idont now how?
 
I couldnt find any information about numbers in this format for israel... But anyway, the solution is mentioned above.

how i configure 9 for outside line
 
This looks like numbers that have to be dialed from a mobile with *166 and on landlines like 3cx with +1800166
 
@marlen1 , do you have a trunk connected? If yes, you can go to Admin->Outbound Rules and set something similar to this, as already mentioned above:

Did you ask your SIP Trunk provider if they support this, and how they wish to receive this calls from you?
 
yes i ask provider *=1222
 
how i configure when i call number with *xxxx .
the * = number 1222 in my sip trunk need be *=1222
 
I am not sure i understand you correctly... Your provider said you have to dial *=1222? "=" isnt a symbol that you can dial anywhere...
 
Or did they say that instead of * you have to sent 1222 to them on the trunk?
