386 Matrix PRASAR UCS System Manual
Configuring Service Provider-based LCR
• In Service Provider-based LCR, whenever a number is dialed out, the system ignores the area code, and
starts checking the numbers in the 'Service Provider-based LCR table' and routes the call according to the
trunk programmed for that number. For this, you must program the two parameters Area Code and Ignore
Digit Count in the Area Code Table.
• On a sheet of paper make a table for Service Provider-based LCR.
• As you can see, the Service Provider-based LCR Table is similar to the Number-based LCR table.
• You can program as many as 99 different numbers which are stored against Index numbers from 01 to 99.
• The number strings may be the complete telephone number, a truncated phone number or the first digit of
the phone number. The number can be a maximum of 64 characters (Digits + Wildcards). Valid characters:
0 to 9, *, #, X, T, Comma [,], Hyphen [-], Caret [^ ]. See “Wildcard Characters” to know the various number
patterns you can use.
• For each number string that you enter against an Index number, you must also specify the Area Code and
the Ignore Digit Count.
• The Ignore Digit Count is the number of digits in the area code that the system should ignore before
checking the Service Provider-based LCR table. For each area code that you enter, the corresponding
Ignore Digit Count will be the number of digits in the area code. For example, the area code for the number
starting with '3' is 080, which consists of 3 digits. So, the Ignore Digit Count for the number/area code 080
will be 3.
• For each number string and area code that you enter, assign the Trunk of the service provider that you
prefer as your first, second, third and forth preference for dialing that number/area code. Refer the table
you prepared for assigning Cost Factor to trunks.
• If you have finished entering the number strings, their corresponding area codes and the Ignore Digit
Count, and the preferred trunks, configure Service Provider-based LCR using Jeeves.
