Least-Cost Routing Operations

Least-cost routing (LCR) allows the CMA system to route ISDN or POTS calls made on paths that incur the lowest expense. You can route calls from one site through a gateway in another site by referencing LCR tables.

Least-cost routing is useful when sites already have a high-bandwidth connection between them.

Least-cost routing works with the CMA system’s other routing features. Setting up least-cost routing requires you to:

•Determine the LCR information to enter in the CMA system.

•Create LCR tables.

•In the device record for MCUs:

—Define an H.320 service and select the LCR table to use.

—Define a gateway service and select the H.320 service associated with the LCR table.

Note

Make sure the LCR tables you define match the network setup.
