Automatic Route Selection
Automatic Route Selection routes public network calls on the most desirable (usually the most economical) trunking facilities available on your DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions when the call destinations are accessible through your public network.
DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions supports up to 254 routing patterns. Each routing pattern consists of up to 6 routing preferences (types of facilities) set up in the order you want them checked when a call is placed. Typically, the least expensive facility will be first on the list; the most expensive will be last.
If Generalized Route Selection is not being used when a call is made, the system selects a routing pattern based on the digits dialed. The routing preferences in that pattern are checked in the order they were listed, and the first available facility is used to place the call. If a facility is not available, the call can be queued until a facility becomes available.
Automatic Alternate Routing
Automatic Alternate Routing enables you to ensure that private network calls will be routed over the various trunking facilities available in your private network in the most effective manner possible. As with Automatic Route Selection, you set up various patterns for routing calls — in this case, with the private network. Depending on your DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions’ configuration, you can have up to 254 routing patterns. Each pattern includes a primary preference — the most preferred and direct route — and 5 alternate preferences. If the primary preference in a pattern is unavailable, the system searches the alternate preferences in the specified order until it finds one available.
