SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 40 • Call router configuration

The call router is able to accommodate almost every combination of these requirements through a customized configuration.

In order to keep this configuration compact we recommend that you first define the routing requirements and restrictions that apply to your installation. Then define the routing and mapping tables and the call services that you need to fulfill these requirements. Finally define the decision tree (i.e. the sequence in which the tables are linked together). In this step you may realize that you need multiple tables of the same type to achieve your goals. On the other hand an alternative sequence may help you to reduce the number of tables or the size of each table while still achieving the set goal. Only when you are happy with the planned tables, functions and sequence should you start configuration.

Enable advanced call routing on circuit interfaces

To activate the advanced call routing the first routing table in the CS interface has to be specified as you can see in figure 62. Make sure the route parameter on the CS interface is configured in order to forward the incoming calls to the first table of the call router.

Procedure: To enable advanced call routing on a circuit interface

Mode: Context CS

Step	Command	Purpose
1	node(ctx-cs)[switch]#interfaceif-typeif-name	Change to Interface Configuration Mode to specify
		the entry table in the interface
2	node(if-type)[if-name]#route call dest-interface	Use these commands to route a call
	interface-name	(1) directly to an interface specified with the inter-
	or	face-name parameter;
	node(if-type)[if-name]#route call dest-table	(2) to the call router, using the table-nametable as
	table-name	first routing table;
	or	(3) directly to a service specified with the service-
	node(if-type)[if-name]#route call dest-service	name parameter.

Configure general call router behavior

Configure address completion timeout

A call that is routed through a called party number routing table possibly has a called party number that is too short for a routing decision to be made. In this case the call router waits for additional digits being entered by the calling user. When the user does not enter additional digits during the address completion timeout, the call router drops the call. You can configure the address completion timeout following the procedure below. The default address completion timeout is 12 seconds and is restarted after each digit that is sent during overlap dialing.

Note The address completion timeout is active when the call router waits for man- datory digits before being able to complete call routing. Contrary to this, the digit collection timeout, described below, waits for additional optional digits.
