try

/^([\d*]{6})$/

\d is shorthand for 0-9 and anything in a [] is a set of chars so [\d*] means 0-9 and *
[\d*]{6} means exactly 6 from the previous set and wrap the whole thing in ^$ means exact match
from beginning to end of the string.

Michael,

Good start! We are getting warmer.

Where "(\\*|\\d{6})" will not match either * or 123456 or anything I can think of.
"\\*|\\d{6}" does match * and 123456 and does not match 1234
So far so good.
BUT, if an asterisk(s) are entered in a combination with numbers anything goes **, *123, 123 *, 12*24, 12**34, 1*2*3, etc.

Bob

That just hit me. Try "\\*" instead of "\*" to see if maybe the
backslash is getting dropped off between Lua and FreeSWITCH.
