partition rout patters 1

[btrain8]

When doing a 'list ars ana' the entries appear but the route pattern fields have Px (x=#) which I know are partition route patterns. How do I follow this to find out exactly what these dialed digits are doing and see the actual route patterns?? When I do 'list partition-route-table' I see some entries:

route index - 1
PGN-1 -- 1
PGN-2 -- 11

route index - 2
PGN-1 -- 2

I have no clue what these mean and where to go next.

This is an s8730 CM5 system that has 1 lsp'd site off it running an s8300. Any help would be appreciated.

I just spent 2 months converting my PBX from Partition Routing to Locations. Ugh. The COR of the station or agent determines the partition group that is used. The partition group determines the assigned route pattern.

"list ars ana" or "list ars ana loc X" (depending if you have multiple locations" will show you the different route patterns (p1, p2, etc.) for the various dial strings.

"list partitioned-group" will show you what partition group is assigned to each COR.

"list ars ana route pX" will show you the different dial strings for each route pattern.

PGN 1 and 2 are tenant partitions

For p1, or partition route index 1, the stations that are in Partition Group Number(PGN)or tenant partition 1 are following route pattern 1. The stations that are in Partition Group Number(PGN) or tenant partition 2 are following route pattern 11.

For p2, the stations in PGN 1 are following route pattern 2, and it is not defined for stations in PGN 2.

that is incorrect PGN is the partitiioned group number which is determined by the time of day field in the COR

so if COR is using time of day 4

disp ars a 1212
1212 goes to p6
disp part 6
the number under PGN 4 is the route pattern being used

SF0751...
I'm considering changing from partition routing to locations also but I'm not finding much out there on what's the best way to go about getting it done. Do you have any pointers or can you direct me in the right direction for some good documentation please?

I have a site that we just added a survivable ESS to (in another state) and I need to setup multiple ars tables and would like to try locations instead of pgns.

Thanks...

Well, here is what I did: first, I ran a "list partition-route-table" and "list partitioned-group" to see what I had in place. Since we do not use time-of-day routing, I was able to keep all of the existing COR settings. Then, I created all new multiple route patterns for each location (local calls, long distance calls, toll-free calls, and 911 calls). My S8700 and ESS locations have PRI/ISDN trunks; all of my other locations have CO trunks. All of the new route patterns (except 911) use all three trunk groups (local, S8700, ESS) as options. 911 calls ONLY route out of the local trunk.

Then, I created/modified the ARS analysis table for each location, using the new route patterns. I put together a list of test numbers (usually time & temperture recordings, or other information recordings), and in the beginning, I had someone in each location dial these test numbers while I monitored the results via a "list trace station xxxx" command, so I could make sure that the calls routed correctly. I would even busy out the different trunks to make sure that the calls would route correctly over trunk choice #2 if trunk choice #1 was busy or unavailable.

Once I was comfortable with the ARS analysis table for a location in a specific area code, I was able create the rest of the tables for the remaining locations in that area code. (Currently, I have 32 locations in three area codes; all in Texas).

If you want, you may contact me via faq690-7157, and I can share the checklist I use when I set up all of my new locations.

Can you share with me how to setup my 911 to call from and EPN 02 hanging off my main PBX? 01
