Parameter Description
'Call Setup Rules Set ID'
call-setup-rules-set-
id
[PREFIX_
CallSetupRulesSetId]
Assigns a Call Setup Rule Set ID to the routing rule. The
device performs the Call Setup rules of this Set ID if the
incoming call matches the characteristics of the routing rule.
The device routes the call to the destination according to the
routing rule's configured action only after it has performed the
Call Setup rules.
By default, no value is defined.
To configure Call Setup rules, see Configuring Call Setup
Rules.
'Forking Group'
forking-group
[PREFIX_ForkingGroup]
Defines a Forking Group number for the routing rule. This
enables forking of incoming Tel calls to multiple IP
destinations. The device sends simultaneous INVITE
messages and handles multiple SIP dialogs until one of the
calls is answered. When one of the calls is answered, the
other calls are dropped.
Each Forking Group can contain up to 10 members. In other
words, up to 10 routing rules can be configured with the same
Forking Group number.
By default, no value is defined.
If all matched routing rules belong to the same Forking Group
number, the device sends an INVITE to all the destinations
belonging to this group. If matched routing rules belong to
different Forking Groups, the device sends the call to the
Forking Group of the first matched routing rule. If the call
cannot be established with any of the destinations
associated with the Forking Group and alternative routing is
enabled, the device forks the call to the Forking Group of the
next matched routing rules, as long as the Forking Group is
defined with a higher number than the previous Forking
Group. For example:
â– Table index entries 1 and 2 are defined with Forking
Group "1", and index entries 3 and 4 with Forking Group
"2": The device first sends the call according to index
entries 1 and 2, and if unavailable and alternative routing
is enabled, sends the call according to index entries 3 and
4.
â– Table index entry 1 is defined with Forking Group "2", and
index entries 2, 3, and 4 with Forking Group "1": The
device sends the call according to index entry 1 only and
ignores the other index entries even if the destination is
unavailable and alternative routing is enabled. This is
because the subsequent index entries are defined with a
Forking Group number that is lower than that of index
entry 1.
