Call Vectoring Commands

Operation

The route-tocommand attempts to route a call to a set of digits collected from the caller or from an adjunct, or to the destination specified by the administered digit string.

For the route-to number ... if digit command, the call is conditionally routed to a specified destination according to a single digit entered by the caller. If the digit collected in the last collect digits command matches the specified comparison in relation to the administered digit, the command attempts to route the call to the specified destination.

The destination for a route-to command can be any of the following:

Internal extension (for example, split/hunt group, station, etc.)

VDN extension

Attendant or Attendant Queue

Remote extension (UDP/DCS)

External number, such as a TAC or AAR/ARS FAC followed by a public or private network number (for example, 7-digit ETN, 10-digit DDD, etc.)

Remote Access Extension

Service Observing FAC

NOTE:

The VDN’s Class of Restriction (COR) is used for calling permissions.

The route-to digits command fails if no digits are collected, and vector processing continues at the next vector step.

The route-to number ... if digit command fails if more than 1 digit is collected or if the digit comparison fails. Vector processing continues at the next command.

If the route-tocommand is successful, vector processing terminates. Otherwise, vector processing continues at the next vector command.

If the number expressed in the command is a system extension or an attendant group (and not a VDN), the system considers the step successful if one of the following conditions occurs:

The endpoint is alerted.

The endpoint has Call Forwarding or night service (hunt group) enabled, and the (night service) destination forwarded to is alerted; or, if off-premises Call Forwarding (UDP hunt night service), a trunk is seized.

The system then provides ringback to the caller, and vector processing terminates. However, if the call cannot complete successfully (for example, no
