Configuring Route Patterns Using Route Group/ Route List

A route pattern is a string of digits (an address) and a set of associated digit manipulations that can
be assigned to a route list or a gateway. Route patterns provide flexibility in network design. They
work in conjunction with route filters and route lists to direct calls to specific devices and to include,
exclude, or modify specific digit patterns.
Configuring Route Group
A route group allows you to designate the order in which gateways and trunks are selected. It allows
you to prioritize a list of gateways and ports for outgoing trunk selection.
The following procedure describes how to configure a route group:
Step 1
Choose Call Routing > Route/Hunt > Route Group.
Step 2
Add a new route group, click the Add New button, and continue with Step 3.
Step 3
In the Route Group Configuration window that displays, enter a name in the Route Group Name field.
The name can contain up to 50 alphanumeric characters and can contain any combination of spaces,
periods (.), hyphens (-), and underscore characters (_). Ensure that each route group name is unique to
the route plan.
Step 4
Choose the appropriate settings as described in Table.
Note
You must choose at least one device for a new route group before adding the new route group.
Step 5
Click Save.

Chapter 3 Configuring a Cisco Unified Communications Manager SIP Trunk with a Cisco TelePresence
Description
Enter a name for this route group. The name can comprise up to 50
alphanumeric characters and can contain any combination of spaces,
periods (.), hyphens (-), and underscore characters (_). Ensure that each
route group name is unique to the route plan.
Choose a distribution algorithm from the options in the drop-down list box:
•
Top Down—If you choose this distribution algorithm, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager distributes a call to idle or available
members starting from the first idle or available member of a route
group to the last idle or available member.
•
Circular—If you choose this distribution algorithm, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager distributes a call to idle or available
members starting from the (n+1)th member of a route group, where the
nth member is the member to which Cisco Unified Communications
Manager most recently extended a call. If the nth member is the last
member of a route group, Cisco Unified Communications Manager
distributes a call starting from the top of the route group.
The default value specifies Circular.
