10 World Class Routing
DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions Release 2 Overview 555-235-100 Issue 2 June 1999 10-9
World Class Routing supports the Automatic Route Selection and Automatic Alternate Routing as separate
features, but through generalized administration applicable to both features, provides both the same routing
abilities. In addition, there are a number of capabilities that enhance the flexibility of routing in supporting
your domestic and/or global calling requirements.
For example, 18-digit routing allows DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions to determine call routing by analyzing
up to 18 digits with no restriction on the grouping or format of the digits, eliminating any assumptions about
the use of a particular dialing plan.
International Direct Distance Dialed calls generally consist of an international access code, a country code,
and a national number. Both codes may vary in length. DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions’ support for
International Direct Distance Dialed calls eliminates any restriction on the grouping and format of digits on
Automatic Route Selection numbers. Call routing is determined by the digits and the length of the dialed
number.
Multinational World Class Automatic Alternate Routing allows the Automatic Alternate Routing number
(Electronic Tandem Network number) to be any number of digits in length.
Digit conversion can be used to reroute numbers, initially dialed to use Automatic Route Selection, to be
converted to use Automatic Alternate Routing and vice versa. This utility can analyze a maximum of 18
digits. In this way, destinations in a customer’s network can be called using the public network number. This
feature can also be used to reroute certain Direct Distance Dialed destinations to specified alternate
destinations (such as intercept, attendant, or another Direct Distance Dialed number).
