Creates a new voice normalization rule. Voice normalization rules are used to convert a telephone dialing requirement (for example, dialing 9 to access an outside line) to the E.164 phone number format used by Microsoft Communications Server 2010.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Type	Description
Identity	Required	XdsIdentity	A unique identifier for the rule. The Identity specified must include the scope followed by a slash and then followed by the name; for example: site:Redmond/Rule1, where site:Redmond is the scope and Rule1 is the name. This name will automatically be stored in the Name property. You cannot specify an Identity and a Name in the same command. The Identity parameter is required unless the Parent parameter is specified. You cannot include the Identity parameter and the Parent parameter in the same command. In addition, a dial plan with an Identity matching the scope of the normalization rule must already exist.
Parent	Required	String	The scope at which the new normalization rule will be created. This value must be global; site:<sitename>, where <sitename> is the name of the Communications Server site; or a string designating a per user rule. A dial plan with the specified scope must already exist or the command will fail. The Parent parameter is required unless the Identity parameter is specified. You cannot include the Identity parameter and the Parent parameter in the same command. If you include the Parent parameter, the Name parameter is also required.
Description	Optional	String	A friendly description of the normalization rule. Maximum string length: 512 characters.
InMemory	Optional	SwitchParameter	Creates an object reference without actually committing the object as a permanent change. If you assign the output of this cmdlet called with this parameter to a variable, you can make changes to the properties of the object reference and then commit those changes by calling this cmdlet’s matching Set- cmdlet.
IsInternalExtension	Optional	Boolean	If True, the result of applying this rule will be a number internal to the organization. If False, applying the rule results in an external number. Default: False
Name	Required	String	The name of the rule. This parameter is required if a value has been specified for the Parent parameter. If no value has been specified for the Parent parameter, the name defaults to the name specified in the Identity parameter. For example, if a rule is created with the Identity site:Redmond/RedmondRule, the Name will default to RedmondRule. The Name parameter and the Identity parameter cannot be used in the same command.
Pattern	Optional	String	A regular expression that the dialed number must match in order for this rule to be applied. Default: ^(\d{11})$ (The default represents any set of numbers up to 11 digits.)
Translation	Optional	String	The regular expression pattern that will be applied to the number to convert it to E.164 format. Default: +$1 (The default prefixes the number with a plus sign [+].)
Confirm	Optional	SwitchParameter	Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command.
Priority	Optional	Int32	The order in which rules are applied. A phone number might match more than one rule. This parameter sets the order in which the rules are tested against the number.
Force	Optional	SwitchParameter	Suppresses any confirmation prompts that would otherwise be displayed before making changes.
WhatIf	Optional	SwitchParameter	Describes what would happen if you executed the command without actually executing the command.

Detailed Description

This cmdlet creates a named voice normalization rule. These rules are a required part of phone authorization and call routing. They define the requirements for converting (or translating) numbers from an internal Communications Server format to a standard (E.164) format. An understanding of regular expressions is helpful in order to define number patterns that will be translated.

Rules that are created by using this cmdlet are part of the dial plan and, in addition to being accessible through the Get-CsVoiceNormalizationRule cmdlet, can also be accessed through the NormalizationRules property returned by a call to the Get-CsDialPlan cmdlet. You cannot create a normalization rule unless a dial plan with an Identity matching the scope specified in the normalization rule Identity already exists. For example, you can’t create a normalization rule with the Identity site:Redmond/RedmondNormalizationRule unless a dial plan for site:Redmond already exists.

Available scopes: Global, Site, Service (Registrar and PSTN Gateway only), Per User

Return Types

This cmdlet creates an object of type Microsoft.Rtc.Management.WritableConfig.Policy.Voice.NormalizationRule.

Examples

-------------------------- Example 1 --------------------------

	Copy Code
New-CsVoiceNormalizationRule -Identity "site:Redmond/Prefix Redmond"

This example creates a new voice normalization rule for site Redmond named Prefix Redmond. Because no other parameters are specified, the rule is created with the default values. Notice that the value passed to the -Identity parameter is in double quotes; this is because the name of the rule (Prefix Redmond) contains a space. If the rule name does not contain a space you don’t need to enclose the Identity in double quotes.

Keep in mind that a dial plan for the Redmond site must exist for this command to succeed. You can create a new dial plan by calling the New-CsDialPlan cmdlet.

-------------------------- Example 2 --------------------------

	Copy Code
New-CsVoiceNormalizationRule -Parent SeattleUser -Name SeattleFourDigit -Description "Dialing with internal four-digit extension" -Pattern '^(\d{4})$' -Translation +1206555$1

This example creates a new voice normalization rule named SeattleFourDigit that applies to the per-user dial plan with the Identity SeattleUser. (Note: Rather than specifying a Parent and a Name, we could have instead created this same rule by specifying -Identity SeattleUser/SeattleFourDigit.) We’ve included a Description explaining that this rule is for translating numbers dialed internally with only a 4-digit extension. In addition, Pattern and Translation values have been specified. These values translate a four-digit number (specified by the regular expression in the Pattern) to the same four-digit number, but prefixed by the Translation value (+1206555). For example, if the extension 1234 was entered, this rule would translate that extension to the number +12065551234.

As in Example 1, a dial plan with the given scope must exist. In this case, that means a dial plan with the Identity SeattleUser must already exists.
