Automatic Route Selection

Automatic Route Selection (ARS) World Class Routing (WCR) is used to ensure that calls use the lowest-cost facility. ARS can also deny calls to specific num- bers or groups of numbers (for example, 976-xxxx or 900 numbers). ARS rout- ing patterns can be designed so that the calling party’s COR will dictate the type of facility for this call, and what to do if all of those facilities are busy.

ARS partitioning is used to provide a method to segregate the guest usage from the administrative usage. Calls for each group can be routed over different facilities for an identical dial string. This is accomplished by Class of Restriction (COR). Guest rooms could be in COR 1, while the hotel staff could be in COR 2. The COR also defines the Facility Restriction Level (FRL), or calling privileges, for that class of user. There must be an ARS analysis table for each partition. The analysis table will provide unique routing of calls made by each group of callers. Long distance calls made by the administrative users may be routed over SDN trunks, while a guest who dialed the same dial string could be routed over a “Time and Charges” type of trunk (required in some states).

User Operation
