Explanation:
What’s the difference between one-stage dialing and two-stage dialing?

One stage dialing means the end user hears a dial tone immediately and can place a call.

Two-stage dialing means the end user has to dial twice - once to reach a second dial tone, and again to reach the final destination. In other words, a call traversing from PSTN to VoIP or VoIP to PSTN must go through two dialing stages to reach the intended recipient. For example, a VoIP user will complete the first stage by calling a pre-programmed number (on the GXW410x) and receive the PSTN dial tone in return. The user will then complete the second stage by dialing a PSTN number. The reverse happens for PSTN to VoIP calls

第二次拨号 if it refers to the second dialing. But generally, 二次拨号 will do.
