Adding a Normalization Group

Network administrators can add a Normalization Group. A Normalization Group can comprise one rule or multiple rules. If there are multiple rules in a group, manipulation is performed in the order the rules are listed. The output of the first rule will be the input of the next.

To add a Normalization Group:
1. Open the Normalization Groups page (Settings > Call Flow Configurations > Normalization Groups).

2. Click the add + icon.

3. Click the + icon.

4. Use the following table as reference.

2. In the left textbox, enter a regular expression. For more information about regular expressions, refer to online tutorials or see Examples of Normalization Rules .
3. In the 'Replace By' field, enter the text that will replace the found regex. You can use groups collected by brackets (…) in the regex in the replacement string using $1, $2,… See a regex tutorial for more information.
4. Enter a description for the convenience of operators managing the network.

Test string

Use this feature to test different possible inputs and verify that the regex sequence you entered produces the result you intended.

Enter any value you want to test and click Test; the result of each individual rule is displayed under 'Simulation Result'.

After a Normalization Group is defined, you can attach it to a:

Peer connection (see Peer Connection Information and Actions).
Globally (see Normalization Before Routing)
Routing Rule action (see Adding a New Routing Rule)
LDAP attribute (see Adding LDAP Server to ARM)

The same Normalization Group can be reused / attached several times in any of the above cases.
