A customer routes PSTN calls to its ITSP through a SIP trunk on Cisco UCM that forwards and receives calls to and from ITSP. ITSP is set to send an E.164 number when the customer's extension is four d
The correct answer is C. Set the Significant Digits to 4 on the SIP trunk.. The 'Significant Digits' setting on a Cisco UCM SIP trunk controls how many digits, counted from the right (least significant) end of the incoming called-party number, are passed into UCM for digit analysis and routing. When the ITSP sends a full E.164 number (e.g., +19195551234)

Explanation
The 'Significant Digits' setting on a Cisco UCM SIP trunk controls how many digits, counted from the right (least significant) end of the incoming called-party number, are passed into UCM for digit analysis and routing. When the ITSP sends a full E.164 number (e.g., +19195551234) but internal extensions are four digits (e.g., 1234), setting Significant Digits to 4 causes UCM to strip all leading digits and present only the last four to the dial plan. This matches the four-digit DNs and routes the call correctly. Setting it to 8 would pass eight digits, which would not match a four-digit DN pattern.
