Policy Point Of Presence - Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch Manual

Chapter 2 Routing

Policy Point of Presence

The Policy Point of Presence enables the flexible routing of calls via the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch
based on the point of presence (POP). The POP based policy routing routes a call to the nearest trunk
group when there are multiple trunk groups. There are several situations where a policy POP can be used.
If a Call Agent serves several POPs, each POP can have its own announcement server. A POP-specific
announcement server can be more efficient than a centralized announcement server. InterLATA carriers
also have a point of presence in each POP. Route interLATA or international calls to the nearest carrier
location using policy POP routing.
Table Name: POLICY_POP
Table Containment Area: EMS, CA, FSAIN
Command Types add, audit, change, delete, help, show, sync
Caution Sync is a restricted command and is intended for repairing data only. Improper use may corrupt database
and disrupt call processing. Use with caution.
Examples
show policy-pop id=car9999; pop-id=dallaspop;
add policy-pop id=car9999; pop-id=dallaspop; policy-type=tod; policy-id=tod101;
change policy-pop id=car9999;pop-id=dallaspop;policy-type=oli;policy-id=tod101;
delete policy-pop id=car9999;
