Routing Rule Groups Table Description
Parameter Description

LCR Enable
CLI: lcr-enable
[RoutingRuleGroups_L
CREnable]
Enables the LCR feature:
[0] Disabled (default)
[1] Enabled
LCR Call Length
CLI: lcr-call-length
[RoutingRuleGroups_L
CRAverageCallLength]
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 range 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, then
"Weekend B" carries the lower cost.
