Match Lists

Mach Lists are designed to group well known numbers or patterns in order to use them in specific treatments.

Depending on the section used, this numbers can be matched with the origin or the destination of the call, so be sure to use distinctive names for your match lists.

For example, like mentioned in the previous section External call filters, white and black lists contain one or more match lists. In this case, the origin of the call will be matched against the list entries to determine if the treatment of skipping the filter or rejecting the call will be applied.

Note

Match lists themselves have no behaviour associated, they only provide a common way for all process to determine if a number has a treatment.

Attention

Beware that numbers of a Match list are checked against origins or destinations depending on the configuration section that use them.

The section Client configuration > Match Lists allows to configure different items that will group the numbers and patterns.
