user performed automatically by LCR.
2 Facilities
2.1 General
In the Least Cost Routing feature there are functions included for:
- Route selection (including Handling of Conflict Numbers and Addition of Own Area
Code)
- Addition of prefix "1".
For each number stated in the External Number Table (ENT) the following
data may be given:
If no match is found for a dialled number in the ENT, the number will next be
analysed in the Number Length Table.
Measure/Question Observation/Comment
6 Add digits.
Measure/Question Observation/Comment
9 Analyse number.
For each number stated in the Number Length Table (NLT) the following data
may be given:
- Indicator telling if own area code is to be inserted between the LAC and the rest of
the analysed number.
If no match is found for the dialled or rearranged number in the NLT, the
number will next be analysed in the Destination Number Table.
The analysis is described in the flowchart below:
Measure/Question Observation/Comment
3 Add digits.
The Destination Number Table is divided into two tables, i.e. the Exceptions
Table (DNT1) and the Number Table (DNT2).
The Exceptions Table holds those numbers which are exceptions to the more
general analysis cases which exist in the Number Table. This means that a
number which is to be analysed, is first matched to the numbers in the
Exceptions Table and if found there the Destination Number analysis is
completed. If the number is not found in the Exceptions Table, the Number
Table is tried instead.
For each number stated in the Exceptions (DNT1) and Number (DNT2)
Tables the following data may be given:
- Index to the Fictitious Destination Table (FDT) where the selected destination code is
stored.
- Indicator telling which Toll Restriction Class of Services that are allowed to complete
the call.
- Information telling what type of external number the dialled (or rearranged) number
is.
- Information about this destination's Call by Call service number.
- Information telling which Transit Network Selection to use for this destination.
- Information telling which local or network operator to access for this destination
(Operator System Access).
Measure/Question Observation/Comment
5 Add digits.
15 Add digits.
For each route choice, the following data, among others, are stored:
- Route number.
- Indicator telling if this route choice is marked for threshold 1 or threshold 2 or none
(see chapter for LCR Class of Service).
- Indicator telling if this route choice is marked for sending of Expensive Route
Warning Tone (see chapter for Expensive Route Warning Tone).
Capacities
The maximum number of entries for the different tables are as follows:
ENT 2000 16
NLT 1000 6
DNT1 5000 16
DNT2 5000 8
FDT 500 -
LCR has the ability to recognise that a dialled external number is actually an
extension in the own exchange or an extension within the private network.
By using ENT table LCR has the ability to convert any dialled external
number to the corresponding internal or private network number.
The area where a route terminates may contain office codes (value range 200-
999) which require a "1" prefix. The Office Code Prefix Table stores all the
office codes which require the "1" prefix.
Maximum 15 OCPT:s may exist in the system. More than one route may refer
to the same OCPT.
On a route basis it is possible to specify the area code in which the route
terminates. When a call is placed over that route and the dialled area code is
the same as the area code of the route, the dialled area code is deleted.
If a trunk in the first hand choice route becomes free during the queuing, the
queue tone is interrupted and the trunk seized. If instead the user requests On-
hook queuing during the queuing, the Off-hook queuing will be interrupted
and an ordinary Call-back to the first hand choice route established.
If time out occurs, a search for a free trunk will begin from the bottom of the
RCT up to a level depending on the user's LCR Class of Service.
If no trunk is found, a busy message is returned to the user. The user then has
the possibility to request On-hook queuing, which in that case will be
established towards the first hand choice route.
One of the alternative route choices in the RCT may be marked for sending of
Expensive Route Warning Tone. This means that before a trunk is seized in
this or any of the following alternatives a tone must be sent to the user
indicating that a trunk in an expensive route will be used for routing of the
call. This tone will be sent for a preset number of seconds during which time
the user has the possibility to interrupt the further routing of the call.
The user's LCR Class of Service determines how far in the RCT that the
routing may advance. The meaning of the different values are shown below:

COS
As an option it is possible to send dial tone to the user after reception of the
dialled Least Cost Routing Access Code.

1.1 Scope
The feature Least Cost Routing (LCR) allows the system to select the most
economical route for an outgoing public call.
LCR performs analysis of the dialled number including the LCR access code
(LAC) and attempts to route the call over the most economical route based on
the following:
In order to test that these units have been loaded and started and are
functioning properly some data are set in the different units and it is checked
that the commands are executed correctly and that the desired routing function
is performed.

1 General
The feature Least Cost Routing (LCR) is performed based on a number of
programmable data tables. These data tables are initiated, changed, erased and
printed using commands. The LCR data tables include:
- LIM Data
Other data related to LCR which reside in non-LCR data tables are:
- Least Cost Routing Class of Service for ANALOGUE EXTENSION, DIGITAL KEY
SYSTEM TELEPHONES, DUAL ACCESS TELEPHONES, ISDN TERMINAL,
GENERIC EXTENSION and ROUTE DATA.
- OFF-HOOK Queuing threshold levels, LCR-only-indicator and Terminating Area
Code (TERAC) for route in ROUTE DATA.
1.1 External Number Table
Data fields ENTRY in DNT1 is first used for matching. If no match is found,
the data field ENTRY in DNT2 is used.
Up to 500 entries can be defined in this table. Each entry stores data field
PRE.
Office code prefix is an optional function which applies for numbering plans
of North American type.
There are 15 Office Code Prefix sub-tables (OCPT) and each of them contains
up to 800 office codes, ranging from 200 to 999. Office codes inserted in such
a table are marked as requiring a 1 prefix.
Each LIM can be assigned a Data table which stores 2 data fields AC (own
Area Code) and DEST (default external destination code in case of a
mismatch).
- Accumulated queue-time
2 Prerequisites
The number series for LCR access code must be initiated.
The Least Cost Routing Class of Service (LCR COS) must be initiated for
analogue and digital extensions as well as for incoming tie lines.
For PABX operators and data extensions, LCR COS is set to the least
restrictive level by a default.
Note: If the external number length is not set with command NANLS (see operational
directions for NUMBER ANALYSIS) the number length used in Number Length
Table will be calculated through the whole LCR analysis using the
prefix/truncated digits. The calculated number length will further in the external
analysis be used as the external number length.

5 Procedure
5.1 Least Cost Routing data
During the initiation of LCR data, the following procedure shall be used:
Dialled number enters ENT table first. After the analysis, a critical timing is
initiated (if the number is marked as CONFLICT) or the number is rearranged
and transferred to NLT (if a match is found) or the unchanged number is
transferred to NLT (if a mismatch is found).
As indicated above, the erasure of data in one table should be followed by the
erasure of the corresponding data in the other tables.
For example, data in DNT can be initiated in such a way that only after
rearranging of a dialled number in ENT or NLT, a match can be found in
DNT. If the corresponding data in ENT or NLT is erased, the call will be
routed to the default destination.
6 Execution
6.1 External number table (ENT)
6.1.1 Initiation of the ENT table data
General
The ENT can hold up to 2000 entries, each containing one to sixteen digits
including the LAC.
When one type of a call is represented by a number which is the same as the
beginning of a number representing some other type(s) of call, and when it is
not defined to use LCR facility, a critical timing must be used to decide that
the last digit of the number is received.
Note: If this number is a conflict number in NLT the number length will be calculated
on the rearranged number's length (9214535).
Digit 0 after LAC can be call for: Operator, Operator assistance, International
call or International call with operator assistance and can be followed with
none, one or several digits. According to that, no digits are truncated or
prefixed but the number is marked CONFLICT and if additional digits are
dialled the analysis continues in the NLT table.
Digit 1 after LAC is for calls to adjacent Area Code in the Numbering Plan
(NPA AC). If match, the first two digits must be truncated and the number be
prefixed with LAC + AC. After that, the analysis continues in the NLT table.
Digit 8 after LAC is the first digit of an Area Code or Office Code (AC/OC).
No digits are to be truncated or prefixed. Continue the analysis in the NLT
table.

Up to 1000, one to six digits entries, including LAC, can be put into NLT.
When the Number Plan allows the same access code to different districts and
to different areas within own district it is required to distinguish destinations
to which a call will be routed.
This is done by a help of minimum and maximum number lengths, as well as
by a conflict number indicator.
Additional, there are cases when own area code must always be prefixed on
dialled number, i.e. there is no area code which could match the part of a
dialled number after LAC.
Note: If a number is marked as conflict and exists as an entry in ENT, MIN number
length is calculated on the rearranged number. If the number does not exist in
ENT as an entry MIN number length is calculated on dialled number.
Received number series 9999 must always be prefixed with own AC.

1 General
2 Procedure
1 General
This guide explains how to access the Least Cost Routing (LCR) facility by
using your telephone.
The Least Cost Routing Facility can be accessed by dialling Least Cost
Routing Access Code (LAC).
By using Least Cost Routing Access Code you will automaticly be routed
over the cheapest available route.
You will not yourself choose the cheapest route. This is instead performed
automatically by LCR.
2 Procedure
2.1 Outgoing call by using LAC
- Lift handset.
- Dial LAC.
If provided, dial tone is received.
- Continue with external number.
If no free trunk exist when Off-hook queuing is provided queue tone is received. If a
trunk becomes free during this time it will be seized and the call will be executed as a
normal external call. It is possible during Off-hook queuing to do On-hook queuing
by dialling suffix digit for call-back towards busy route.
When Off-hook queuing is not provided and no free trunk is selected busy tone is
received. On-hook queuing is possible by dialling suffix digit for call-back towards
busy route.
If selected route is marked as expensive you will receive Expensive Route Warning
Tone which will make it possible for you to interrupt the further routing of the call.
- After conversation replace handset.
