Formatting DNIS/ANI routing for SIP

In a SIP/HMP environment, special care must be taken when formatting wildcards for ANI and DNIS profiles. Matches can fail when wildcards  are used, since Wildcard matching compares STRINGS and allows for ? to match.

For example, 666666? does not match sip:6666666@domain.com, since the range matching looks at 6666666 part of the DNIS and treats it as a number. The Wildcard does not. In order to work correctly, the exact string needs to be entered in the DNIS routing:

sip:666????@xxx.x.xx:5060 or sip:666????@domain.com:5060

Range matching always works if you specify an exact telephone number (e.g. 4445555).
