Page 130 of 258 Alternative Call Routing for Network Bandwidth Management

Configure one of these two modes of operation (Bandwidth insufficiency or All Calls) on a zone basis.

The Alternative Call Routing for NBWM feature deals only with interzone calls. This feature is configurable for main office and branch office zones, not virtual trunk zones.

It is possible to configure this feature to re-route all calls to MCDN or PSTN routes and still maintain the main office-branch office architecture.

ALTPrefix

When the Alternative Call Routing for NBWM feature is invoked, the dialed number is modified with a prefix (called the ALTPrefix) inserted at the beginning of the digit string. The ALTPrefix can have a maximum of seven digits.

The system handles the call with the ALTPrefix inserted as if the user had dialed the digits.

The ALTPrefix applies to the zone in which the call originates. There is one ALTPrefix for each zone that requires alternate routing.

All Call Servers must be able to translate the ALTPrefixes for all zones that require Alternative Call Routing for NBWM.
