CLI Based Routing
What is this?
ETERNITY offers the facility to detect the calling party's number and name. This is known as Calling Line
Identification.
On the basis of CLI, it is possible to land calls from a particular telephone number on a particular extension or group
of extensions. This is known as CLI Based Routing.
How it works
A, B, C are extensions. D and E are external callers.
Calls made by D are to be landed on A
Calls made by E are to be landed on B and C.
The CLI of D and E and their corresponding landing destinations should be programmed in the CLI Based Routing
Table.
• D calls on a trunk of ETERNITY.
• The system checks the numbers programmed in the CLI Based Routing table.
• D's number is found in the CLI Based Routing Table.
• The system checks the destination number programmed against D's CLI.
• A's number is found as the destination extension.
• The system lands the call on A.
If D's number is not programmed in the CLI Based Routing Table, the call will be routed according to the incoming
call routing configured for the trunk.
How to configure
For this feature to work, the CLI Based Routing Table must be configured with the numbers of the calling parties
and the numbers of the corresponding destination extensions.
You can program up to 400 numbers in the CLI Routing Table. Each calling party number in the CLI table is stored
against an index from 001 to 400.
• On a sheet of paper, draw a three-column table, as illustrated below.
