Fig. II-209: Call Routing table – brief preview
Defining patterns in the
Call
Routing Table
avoids registering Quadro at the routing management server and gives you an option to establish a
direct connection to the destination or to use a SIP server for call routing.
The
Call
Routing Table
lists manually defined routing patterns along with their parameters (pattern number, state, routing and source caller settings,
RTP Proxy and Date/Time period settings, metric and description), as well as automatically created and undeletable patterns created from the
System Configuration Wizard
. If the ISDN or E1/T1 trunk settings (ISDN or E1/T1 interface type, signaling type, etc.) have been changed after
defining the corresponding route,
invalid
is displayed next to the ISDN or E1/T1 routing pattern. Invalid ISDN or E1/T1 patterns will not be allowed.
The alternating
Show Detailed View
and
Show Brief View
buttons are used to display entries in the Call Routing table in detailed and brief views
correspondingly. The brief view displays the most important settings of the routing rules. The detailed view displays all settings of the routing rules as
they are configured in the Call Routing Wizard.
The alternating
Hide disabled records
and
Show all records
buttons are used to respectively hide or show disabled records in the Call Routing
table. The system does not consider the disabled records when parsing the table for the call route.
If the route has an
Authentication
or
an
Authentication&Accounting
selected from the
AAA Required
checkbox group, it will have a link to the
Users List
in the
Call Routing table
. The
Users List
page contains a list of authorized users defined from the
Local AAA Table
and gives the option
to enable/disable authentication of each user for a particular route.
Since the
Call
Routing Table
may have multiple entries that could match to same pattern, the table will be internally rearranged according to the
rules with the following consequences:
•
The pattern matching best to the
Best Matching Algorithm
will have the higher position in the rearranged list,
•
If multiple patterns equally match to the
Best Matching Algorithm
, the pattern with the lower metric will get the higher position in the rearranged
list,
•
If the multiple patterns with the same metric have been matched to the
Best Matching Algorithm
, the pattern in the higher position in the table
will get the higher position in the rearranged list.
The pattern in the highest position of the rearranged list will be considered as the preferred one. The second and subsequent matching patterns will
be used, if the destination refused the call due to the configured Fail Reason.
The
Enable/Disable
functional buttons are used to enable/disable the selected route(s). Disabled routes will have no effect. Enabled routes will be
parsed when initiating routing calls.
The
State
column in the
Call
Routing Table
displays the current state of the routes (enabled/disabled).
Add
starts the
Call Routing Wizard
where a new routing pattern may be defined. The
Call Routing Wizard
is divided into several pages. Page 1
displays the following components:
The
Enable
checkbox is used to enable the newly created routing rule. By default, this checkbox is selected, so the newly created routing rule will be
enabled. But if you wish to create a routing rule for a later use, disable it from this page. The new routing rule will be added to the Call Routing Table
but will be disabled and will not be considered when placing calls through the call routing unless it is enabled again.
The
Destination Number Pattern
text field specifies calls to which the rule should be applied. If a call, either inbound or outbound, has a destination
number that matches the specified pattern, it will be completed according to the current rule. A routing pattern may contain wildcards. For the list of
characters and wildcards allowed in this text field see chapter
Allowed Characters and
Wildcards.
