Call router configuration task list 461
SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 40 • Call router configuration
The call router is able to accommodate almost every combination of these requirements through a customized
configuration.
In order to keep this configuration compact we recommend that you first define the routing requirements and
restrictions that apply to your installation. Then define the routing and mapping tables and the call services
that you need to fulfill these requirements. Finally define the decision tree (i.e. the sequence in which the tables
are linked together). In this step you may realize that you need multiple tables of the same type to achieve your
goals. On the other hand an alternative sequence may help you to reduce the number of tables or the size of
each table while still achieving the set goal. Only when you are happy with the planned tables, functions and
sequence should you start configuration.
Enable advanced call routing on circuit interfaces
To activate the advanced call routing the first routing table in the CS interface has to be specified as you can see
in figure 62. Make sure the route parameter on the CS interface is configured in order to forward the incoming
calls to the first table of the call router.
Procedure: To enable advanced call routing on a circuit interface
Mode: Context CS
Configure general call router behavior
Configure address completion timeout
A call that is routed through a called party number routing table possibly has a called party number that is too
short for a routing decision to be made. In this case the call router waits for additional digits being entered by
the calling user. When the user does not enter additional digits during the address completion timeout, the call
router drops the call. You can configure the address completion timeout following the procedure below. The
default address completion timeout is 12 seconds and is restarted after each digit that is sent during
overlap dialing.
Note The address completion timeout is active when the call router waits for man-
datory digits before being able to complete call routing. Contrary to this, the
digit collection timeout, described below, waits for additional optional digits.
Procedure: To configure the address completion timeout
Step Command Purpose
1
node(ctx-cs)[switch]#interface if-type if-name Change to Interface Configuration Mode to specify
the entry table in the interface
2
node(if-type)[if-name]#route call dest-interface
interface-name
or
node(if-type)[if-name]#route call dest-table
table-name
or
node(if-type)[if-name]#route call dest-service
service-name
Use these commands to route a call
(1) directly to an interface specified with the inter-
face-name parameter;
(2) to the call router, using the table-name table as
first routing table;
(3) directly to a service specified with the service-
name parameter.
