Defining Routing Rules

 

 

Routing Rule Tips

The following tips may be useful while creating or editing routing rules:

ƒWhen defining multiple conditions for a rule, list the most restrictive condition first. This will reduce the amount of time needed to process the rule.

ƒThe number symbol # can be used for comments, or to disable a rule. When disabling a rule, precede each line in the rule with #.

ƒSpaces and line breaks can be used as needed for legibility.

ƒRoute.dic must end with a line-feed. To ensure proper termination of the last meaningful line, add a comment-line after the last routing rule, such as:

#last update on 1 April 2003

#end of file

When rules are imported as described on page 44, the routing software will check the syntax used and will report on any problems detected.
