Mediant 600 & Mediant 1000
• Index 3 - no Cost Group is assigned, but as the Default Cost parameter is set to
Min, it is selected as the cheapest route
• Index 4 - Cost Group "B" is only second-matched rule (Index 1 is the first)
Example 3: This example shows how the cost of a call is calculated if the call spans
over multiple time bands:
Assume a Cost Group, "CG Local" is configured with two time bands, as shown below:
Table 13-6: Cost Group with Multiple Time Bands
Cost Group Time Band Start Time End Time
Connection
Cost
Minute Cost
CG Local
TB1 16:00 17:00 2 1
TB2 17:00 18:00 7 2
Assume that the call duration is 10 minutes, occurring between 16:55 and 17:05. In
other words, the first 5 minutes occurs in time band "TB1" and the next 5 minutes
occurs in "TB2", as shown below:
Figure 13-13: LCR using Multiple Time Bands (Example)
The device calculates the call using the time band in which the call was initially
established, regardless of whether the call spans over additional time bands:
Total call cost = "TB1" Connection Cost + ("TB1" Minute Cost x call duration) = 2 + 1
x 10 min = 12
