User's Manual 25. Routing
Parameter Description
Name
[GWRoutingPolicy_Ldap
ServersGroupName]
to-IP routing rules that require LDAP-based routing (and/or Call Setup
Rules) use the LDAP server(s) assigned to the LDAP Server Group.
By default, no value is defined (None).
For more information on LDAP Server Groups, see ''Configuring LDAP
Server Groups'' on page 248.
LCR Feature
[GWRoutingPolicy_LCRE
nable]
Enables the Least Cost Routing (LCR) feature for the Routing Policy.
 [0] Disable (default)
 [1] Enable
For more information on LCR, see ''Least Cost Routing'' on page 273.
Note: LCR is applicable only to Tel-to-IP routing.
Default Call Cost
[GWRoutingPolicy_LCR
DefaultCost]
Defines whether routing rules in the Tel-to-IP Routing table that are not
assigned a Cost Group are considered a higher cost or lower cost route
compared to other matched routing rules that are assigned Cost Groups.
 [0] Lowest Cost = (Default) The device considers a matched routing
rule that is not assigned a Cost Group as the lowest cost route.
Therefore, it uses the routing rule.
 [1] Highest Cost = The device considers a matched routing rule that is
not assigned a Cost Group as the highest cost route. Therefore, it is
only used if the other matched routing rules that are assigned Cost
Groups are unavailable.
LCR Call Duration
[GWRoutingPolicy_LCRA
verageCallLength]
Defines the average call duration (in minutes) and is used to calculate the
variable portion of the call cost. This is useful, for example, when the
average call duration spans over multiple time bands. The LCR is
calculated as follows:
cost = call connect cost + (minute cost * average call duration)
The valid value is 0-65533. The default is 1.
For example, assume the following Cost Groups:
 "Weekend A": call connection cost is 1 and charge per minute is 6.
Therefore, a call of 1 minute cost 7 units.
 "Weekend B": call connection cost is 6 and charge per minute is 1.
Therefore, a call of 1 minute cost 7 units.
Therefore, for calls under one minute, "Weekend A" carries the lower
cost. However, if the average call duration is more than one minute,
"Weekend B" carries the lower cost.
25.5 IP Destinations Connectivity Feature
The device can be configured to check the integrity of the connectivity to IP destinations of
Tel-to-IP routing rules in the Tel-to-IP Routing table. The IP Connectivity feature can be
used for the Alternative Routing feature, whereby the device attempts to re-route calls from
unavailable Tel-to-IP routing destinations to available ones (see ''Alternative Routing Based
on IP Connectivity'' on page 513).
The device supports the following methods for checking the connectivity of IP destinations:

Network Connectivity: The device checks the network connectivity of the IP
destination using one of the following methods configured by the 'Alt Routing Tel to IP
Connectivity Method' parameter:
• Ping: The device periodically (every seven seconds) pings the IP destination.
