The correct answer is B. Create a transform on Expressway-C to strip port numbers. The search rule is configured with Pattern type 'Suffix' and Pattern 'example.com', meaning it matches aliases that end with 'example.com'. However, the destination in the call is '[email protected]:5061' - the port ':5061' is appended to the alias string. Because the full…
Question
A video device registered with Cisco UCM failed to make an outbound B2B call. From Expressway-C diagnostic logs, an engineer found that the destination pattern is "[email protected]:5061", and the call was dropped with a 404 response code from Expressway-C. The search rule intended for this call-in Expressway-C is configured for Alias Pattern Match, Pattern type "Suffix," and Pattern "example.com". How must the configuration be changed to allow the call?
Options
- AUpdate the route pattern in Cisco UCM to send calls to "example.com" to the correct port.
- BCreate a transform on Expressway-C to strip port numbers.
- CCreate a call policy rule on Expressway-E to allow calls to port 5061.
- DUpdate the call policy list in Expressway-C to allow calls to "example.com".

Explanation
The search rule is configured with Pattern type 'Suffix' and Pattern 'example.com', meaning it matches aliases that end with 'example.com'. However, the destination in the call is '[email protected]:5061' - the port ':5061' is appended to the alias string. Because the full string ends with ':5061' and not 'example.com', the suffix match fails and the call returns a 404. The fix is to create a transform on Expressway-C that strips the port number from the alias (e.g., using a regex to remove ':[0-9]+$'), so the alias becomes '[email protected]' and correctly matches the suffix search rule. No UCM route pattern change or call policy modification is needed.
