ASAI and Call Routing

This is transparent to the ASAI adjuncts, with two exceptions:

1.If the maximum size UUI allowed on the ISDN trunk is exceeded, then the lower priority data items will be dropped. Whether or not this means that ASAI UUI is dropped depends on the priorities of the data items. These priorities are administered on each trunk group form. Each item stored in shared UUI uses two extra bytes.Therefore, if the ISDN trunk group is administered to allow a shared UUI length of 32 bytes then the ASAI UUI will be limited to 30 bytes instead of 32.

2.If a service provider, or customer equipment other than a DEFINITY ECS (R6.3 or later) will be interpreting the contents of the UUI IE, then the trunk group used to place those calls should have its UUI IE Treatment set to “service-provider”. This sends the UUI as specified by the ASAI application, without change.

For more information, see the Section, ‘‘Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN),’’ in Chapter 12, ‘‘ASAI and Feature Interactions.’’

Denial (NAK) Causes

The ECS issues a route end with one of the following reasons as the cause for denying the request. Vector Processing continues at the next step.

When Route Select has hunt group as the destination and the hunt group is in night service and the night service destination is busy, then the cause value CS0/16 (Normal clearing) is generated when in fact the destination is busy.

Invalid Association (CS0/81)

This is generated when a Route Select is received after the Route End.

Dial-ahead digits in incorrectly built Route Select (CS0/96 or CS0/100)

If dial-ahead digits are received in an invalid Route Select message, they are discarded and a Route End is sent to the ASAI adjunct.

Route Select with no called number and no dial-ahead digits (CS0/96) A Route Select received without dial-ahead digits and without a called number or with an empty called number is denied.

Invalid party_id (CS0/28)

If the party_id parameter is not valid for the call, the ECS sends a Route End and continues with vector processing for the call.
