LOCAL_ZONE
Gives the zone that should be used when the area code is not included in the telephone number, i.e. with local calls. E.g.:
LOCAL_ZONE=LOCALLY
AREA_CODES<...>
Here one area code is given per line and to which zone the area code belongs. E.g.
AREA_CODES< 08LOCAL 031AREA 3 009ABROAD 0091USA
>
The codes above (AREA 3 etc.) are arbitrary and can be changed, see also below under ZONES.
It is worth noting that the system goes through all area codes each time and if several lines match the area code in question, the last found always applies. The above means that it is possible to use ABROAD as a standard cost for foreign calls (which of course begin with 009) while for certain countries to which you often ring the cost can be specified exactly, as for USA in the example above. If the line with 009 ABROAD had not been there with the above, a number which began with e.g. 00949 (Germany) would not have been able to be matched against any line in the table and consequently would have been considered as a local call.
ZONES time 1 [time 2 [...]] <...>
Here the tariff zones that are to be found are given plus the cost per minute or the interval between marks at different times of the day. E.g.:
ZONES 0 8 18<
LOCAL 0.29 0.58 0.29 REGION 0.36 0.71 0.36
>
The above means that with e.g. local calls made between 0.00 and 8.00 the price is 29 öre per minute. Note that the names above, LOCAL and AREA 3, are arbi- trary and can be chosen according to opinion and taste. However, the same name must of course be used in the AREA_CODES section so that the right area code can be paired with the right cost.
