Chapter 1Introduction to call redirection

This chapter provides an introduction to the Call Redirection system anddescribes the flow of a call through the system. The information in this chapteris ordered as follows:

• Why call redirection is required

• When call redirection is required

• How call redirection works

Why call redirection is requiredCall Redirection is required in a network to route calls to alternate destinationsif the primary destination is not available. This allows subscribers to achievehigher reliability on data communication paths by providing one or moreredundant paths for call attempts.

Benefits of call redirectionThe DPN Call Redirection System provides the following benefits:

• high capacity

• high performance

• isolated change management

• enhanced administration capabilities

When call redirection is requiredThe Call Redirection System is invoked when a destination is not available dueto a failure. There are three types of failures: internal, external, and otherfailures.

To re-route a call that has been signalled on the link by the X.25 service, thehost must initiate the ITU X.25 Call Deflection feature using an X.25 facilitycode.

Internal failuresAn internal failure occurs in switch hardware when some internal componentfails. These failures could occur in:

• line cards

• processors

• shelves

• nodes

• network links

• trunks

External failuresExternal failures occur outside the switch. These failures could occur in

• customer data terminal equipment (DTE)

• customer connections to the switch

Other failuresCall routing failures may not always be due to a failed component or link. Oneexample is when the call options specified by the calling end are notcompatible with those supported by the called end. Another example is whenthe called end is busy (that is, no free channels for the incoming call).

How call redirection worksThree types of call redirection are performed:

• Routing Identifier (RID) Redirection, for routing around switch or networkfailures.

• Data Network Address (DNA) Redirection, for routing calls to alternatedestinations within the same network.

• Data Network Identification Code (DNIC) Redirection for routing to othernetworks.

RID redirection will always be attempted first. If it fails, DNA redirection orDNIC redirection will be attempted.

In order to perform these redirection functions, the following entities arerequired in the network:

• a Call Redirection Remote Server Interface on each RM in the network;and

• a Call Redirection Server on selected AMs or RMs in the network.

Page 19: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

Introduction to call redirection 19

DPN-100 DPN Call Redirection System User Guide 37.2S1

These components are described in more detail in the section calledComponents of the Call Redirection System.

Routing identifier (RID) redirectionEach node in the network is identified by an RID. A called destination may beavailable through more than one RID, one of which is designated as theprimary RID and the other the back-up RID. If a call can not reach itsdestination through the primary RID then the Call Redirection System willattempt to route the call through the back-up RID.

RID redirection is intended for use for AMs connected to two distinct RIDs.

RID redirection handles two types of failure: RID failure, and network linkfailure.

If the primary RID fails, calls will be routed to the destination AM through theback-up RID. Figure 1 illustrates the flow of a call through RID redirectioncaused by an RID failure.

If the network link between the primary RID and the destination AM fails, thecall will be routed to the destination AM through the back-up RID. Figure 2illustrates the flow of a call through RID redirection caused by a network linkfailure. The back-up RID, if defined, is found in the RID redirection list. Thislist is derived from the RID redirection envelope and is maintained on all nodesin the network. A single back-up RID may be defined for each RID in thenetwork.

RID redirection fails when one of the following occurs:

• the back-up RID is not defined;

• there is no route to the back-up RID; or

• there is no route from the back-up RID to the called destination.

Either end of an established call that is experiencing communication problemssends a recovery packet to the other end to reestablish the communication onpossibly a different path. This feature is described in NTP 241-1001-110,DPNRouting System General Description under the name VC Recovery. When arecovery packet can not reach its destination, it is sent to a Call RedirectionRemote Server Interface on an RM where the destination RID is replaced by aback-up RID using RID Redirection.

The redirection of recovery packets is enhanced. Each end of a call isdynamically informed of the existence of an alternate RID through which theother end can be reached. When it sends a recovery packet, one end of a callincludes the alternate RID of the other end in the packet.If a recovery packet must be redirected and an alternate RID is specified in it,

Page 20: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

20 Chapter 1

241-1001-115 37.2S1

this alternate RID is directly used as the back-up RID. This enables the back-up RID to be dynamically chosen on a per call basis rather than quasi staticallyspecified, in service data, on a per RID basis. If no alternate RID is specified,the back-up RID is still taken from the RID Redirection List.

Note 1: RID redirection does not modify the destination address digits ofa call.

DNA redirectionIf RID redirection has been attempted and failed, the call redirection systemattempts DNA redirection on calls to destinations within the network. DNAredirection tries to find another DNA in the network which has been defined asa back-up for the called DNA.

A customer is allowed to specify a DNA to be backed up and a list of alternateDNAs. The address to be backed up will be referred to as the primary addressand the alternate addresses will be referred to as the members of the redirectionlist or secondary DNAs. A call redirection list is composed of a primary DNAwhich is backed up by a number of secondary DNAs. A secondary DNA mayappear in more than one redirection list. If the call packet can not be deliveredto the primary destination, the associated list is searched sequentially from thebeginning. If one of the members of the redirection list accepts the call, it isconnected to that member. The DNA that accepted the call is returned in thecall accept packet. This allows the accounting system and the calling serviceto identify to whom the call is connected. If the call can not be delivered to aDNA, the next secondary in the list is tried. If none of the secondaries acceptsthe call, the call is cleared. In this case, the clear cause will be the one suppliedby the last address tried.

The addresses in the redirection list do not have to be on the same node as eachother or that of the primary address.

An operator command may be used to add a member dynamically to theredirection list. A member that has been added by command can also bedeleted by command.

Calls that are sent directly to a DNA that is a member of a redirection list willnot be redirected unless the member happens to be a Primary DNA of anotherredirection list. Although a DNA may be a member of one redirection list anda Primary DNA of another redirection list, a call can traverse through only oneredirection list.

When a call undergoes DNA redirection, the destination address digits arereplaced by the secondary address digits. If the originating DTE is an X.25(1984) DTE, the call accept packet will contain the Called Line ModificationNotification (CLAMN) facility. If the back-up DTE is an X.25 (1984) DTE,the incoming call packet sent to it by the network will contain the CallRedirection Notification (CRN) facility.

If a Call Redirection Server receives a failed dial-out call which has anAlternate Path Dial-Out list defined, the Call Redirection Server sends the call(before searching for the next call redirection member) back to the Dial-OutRouting Server (DORS) for alternate path dialing. This is achieved byreplacing the destination address digits with the dial-out address digits foundin the Dial Command Utility in the call block. If the primary DORS is down,the call will be sent to the backup DORS for alternate path dialing.

If no connection can be established by the Alternate Path Dial-Out members,or if both primary and backup DORS are down, the call will be sent to the nextcall redirection member in the Call Redirection list.

Figure 3 and Figure 4 illustrate the flow of a call through DNA redirection.

Figure 5 illustrates the flow of DNA redirection with the alternate path defined.

Use and handling of RID 0The use and handling of RID 0 is covered below:

1 On-Switch

Note:The use of RID 0 for Call Redirection is restricted to networks whereall of the Call Redirection Servers are on RMs, and/or AMs connected toRMs.

When a member with RID 0 is specified, the Call Redirection Server sends thecall packet to the Source Call Router (SCR) for routing. If a non-zero RID isentered, the packet is sent directly to the Destination Call Router (DCR) forrouting directly to the indicated RID.

Data network identification code (DNIC) redirectionIf RID redirection has been attempted and failed, the Call Redirection Systemwill attempt DNIC redirection on calls to destinations outside the network.

Note that in the case of routing off-network calls, the gateway call routingsystem (GCRS) supersedes the DNIC redirection system. The destinationDNA is translated into a routing ID (RID) for on-network calls or into anetwork ID (NID) for off-network calls. If the address maps to a NID, whichcan be either an adjacent NID (ANID) or a non-adjacent NID (NNID), the callpacket is forwarded for further handling to the GCRS system. The GCRSsystem has the capability of allowing the user to specify two sets of routes(ANIDs) per destination network in service data, via the Preside MultiserviceData Manager system. The first set contains the primary routes (the possibleroutes to which calls are normally routed). The second set contains thesecondary routes (used only as backup routes if the primary routes fail orbecome unavailable). Refer to NTP 241-1001-181DPN-100 X.75 ServiceSpecification and NTP 241-1001-313DPN-100 X.75 Gateway Call RoutingSystem User Guide for further details on the gateway call routing system.

The call packet contains a DNIC which identifies the call as destined foranother network. Inside the DPN network the call is routed by SNRID whichidentifies the gateway leading to that network. When DNIC redirection isperformed, the call redirection system tries to find another SNRID to which thecall can be routed. This may be another SNRID to the destination network ora SNRID to a transit network which will route the call to the destinationnetwork.

The customer can define a DNIC redirection list containing up to seven back-up SNRIDs. If the DNIC redirection list contains the destination DNIC anattempt is made to route the call to the first back-up SNRID. If the new gatewayis also not available, the next member of the same back-up list will be chosen.This process is repeated until either the call is routed by means of the alternateroute or all members have been tried. In the latter case the call will be cleared.

Page 28: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

241-1001-115 37.2S1

Unlike DNA redirection, which changes the destination address in the callpacket, DNIC redirection only changes the routing identified by the SNRID.The destination address, composed of DNIC + DNA, is not affected, i.e.,noneof the destination digits are modified.

Figure 6 illustrates the flow of a call through DNIC redirection.

Note:The RPOA network mapping flags must be set to the followingvalues for the DNIC redirection to be attempted:

Chapter 2Components of the call redirectionsystem

This chapter provides a description of the system components. Theinformation in this chapter is ordered as follows:

• Introduction

• Call redirection remote server interface

• Call redirection server on AM or RM

• Initialization of SVCs

• Interaction with other systems

• Interaction with hunt groups

• PVC back-up description

• Limitations

IntroductionThe Call Redirection System has a unique component on each distinct piece ofhardware in a DPN network. On every RM, there is a Call Redirection RemoteServer Interface (CRD-RSI). On some AMs or RMs, or both, there are CallRedirection Servers (CRServ). All of these components make up the CallRedirection System (CRS).

Every RM must have CRD-RSI. However, a minimum of one CRServ isrequired in the system. Usually, more CRServs are configured on a system; thisallows redundancy and maintains sufficient throughput. Nevertheless, notevery AM or RM requires a CRServ. The following sections examine thesecomponents in greater detail.

Call redirection remote server interfaceThe Call Redirection Remote Server Interface (CRD-RSI) resides in theROUT386 image, runs on a processor element (PE). It must have service datato do RID redirection and it must have service data for the long-term SVCs that

Page 32: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

32 Chapter 2

241-1001-115 37.2S1

link with the CRServs on one or more AMs and/or RMs. Every RM is requiredto have a CRD-RSI. For redundancy and loadsharing, CRD-RSIs may bedefined on multiple Processor Elements in an RM. There may be an SVCdefined from one CRD-RSI to up to eight CRServs. Each CRD-RSI in an RMwill call the same group of CRServs.

Note:The AM CRServs and RM CRServs may have either an E.164 orX.121 address if called from an RSI.

Call redirection server on an AM or RMThe CRServ resides on at least one AM or RM in the network. It has its ownsoftware image and runs on an dedicated PE. This software has fourresponsibilities:

• accept SVC calls from CRD-RSI in network

• perform DNIC redirection on X.75 gateway calls

• perform DNA redirection on national calls

• clear calls for which DNIC or DNA redirection cannot be performed

The server contains code which will accept SVC calls and set up theappropriate virtual circuit processes to handle the communication. Currently,each CRServ can maintain 127 connections between itself and the CRD-RSIsin the network.

The server receives failed calls from the network through its SVCs in the formof data packets. The data packets are converted back into call packets and theappropriate redirection is performed from the AM or RM CRServ. The nodeperforming the call routing must have sufficient capacity to handle the routingof redirected calls as well as its normal load.

Page 33: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

Components of the call redirection system 33

DPN-100 DPN Call Redirection System User Guide 37.2S1

Similarly, for CRServs residing on RMs, and/or AMs connected to RMs, bothtrunks/network links connecting the node/module performing call redirection,must have sufficient capacity to handle the call redirection load as well as thenormal load of data traffic. The requirement for sufficient capacity can alsoaffect the call throughput of subscribers whose lines are connected on the sameAM or RM that contains the CRServ or to an AM homed to an RM whichcontains the CRSserv.

DNIC redirectionThe CRServ is also responsible for DNIC redirection. Service data must bedefined for a DNIC redirection list which associates a 4 digit DNIC with up to7 alternate SNRIDs which support a connection to either the destinationnetwork or a transit network which ultimately connects to the destinationnetwork. A model of this table follows.

Figure 7DNIC redirection list - call redirection server

The search algorithm is a simple linear selection through this list with softwaremaintaining a count of how many times the call has been through DNICredirection. If the count reaches seven, or the redirection list has beenexhausted, then the call is cleared by CRServ. The clear cause given is thatwhich is specified by the attempt to connect with the last alternate destinationin the list.

DNA RedirectionDNA redirection also requires a list of service data associating a primary DNAwith up to seven secondaries. Again, the search algorithm is a simple linearselection through the list. However, DNA redirection has an additional feature.Through an operator command, an operator may specify one additionalalternate DNA for each primary DNA. This additional member becomes thefirst member selected when doing DNA redirection. A model of a DNAredirection list is shown below (they are all X.121 members).

Note 1: The members may be either E.164, X.121, or a mixture of both.

Note 2: Call redirection list primary addresses and secondary addressesmay be of address types X.121 or E.164, except for X.32 (dial–out)addresses. In the case of X.32 addresses they are allowed as call redirectionlist members but not as primary addresses.

Figure 8DNA redirection list

In searching through this redirection list, DNA redirection replaces thedestination DNA with the secondary DNA in the call packet. While this isdone, any sub–address digits from the original call are preserved (for X.121addresses only). The primary and secondary addresses should be of the samelength if they are both X.121 addresses.

It is important to note that the dynamic specification shown in the first line ofthe DNA redirection list only applies to the specific CRServ in which thecommand is applied. In order for the dynamic DNA to appear in the selectionprocess of each CRServ, the operator must enter the command on all CRServsin the network. This is required because CRServs have no knowledge of eachother. Therefore, consistency of redirection lists is an operator’s responsibility.

Initialization of SVCsWhen the CRD-RSI initializes it must check service data in order to determinewhere the CRServs reside. The required envelope is the CRDACC DNA/LISTenvelope.This envelope contains the DNAs of the CRServs on AMs or RMs,or both, that are to be called in order to establish the system. Refer to Figure 9.

For each of the DNAs in the envelope, the following is initiated by each CallRedirection Remote Server Interface:

1 Prepare the call attempt to that DNA; send to routing.

2 Wait for the call accept.

3 If the call is accepted, add to available SVC table.

OR

4 If the call is cleared, generate an alarm indicating why the call wasrejected. This is provided only if the cause is different from the previousclear cause.

This process repeats every 30 seconds until the call is accepted. This maycontinue indefinitely if the call is continually cleared.

SVC setup on an RMEach CRD-RSI in an RM loadshares among all of its available SVCs. There isno concept of hot standby on an RM. Refer to Figure 9.

Interaction with other systemsSome of the redirection systems interact with each other; for instance, a DNAredirected call may end up being RID redirected to get to a secondary member.Similarly, RID and DNIC redirection may interact. The DNIC and DNA back-up will never interact on the same network; however, it could happen that a callis DNIC redirected on network A and then DNA redirected on network B. Callredirection does not work over X.75.

Interaction with hunt groupsWhenever a non-hunted call fails, it is sent to the nearest CRD-RSI, at whichpoint RID redirection is tried. If this fails, or has already been attempted, thecall usually goes to a CRServ through an SVC.

Hunted calls are different in three ways:

• If a hunted call fails at a hunt group member, the call will be returned backto the hunt group.

• Hunt group DNAs may be backed up. DNA redirection will only beinvoked when all hunt group members have been attempted with nosuccess.

• Individual member DNAs of a hunt group may be DNA redirected only ifcalled directly without going through the hunt group.

PVC back-up descriptionEach PVC has a primary slave end which is called by the master end toestablish the PVC. If the slave end cannot accept the PVC connection, the PVCcall is redirected to the DPN Call Redirection System. If the slave end of thePVC is a primary DNA of a DNA redirection list, the call is redirected to thesecondary DNAs. Refer to Figure 10. Each member of the redirection list musthave a PVC envelope identical to the one defined for the primary slave end,except for the slave end DNA. The local LCN for the primary for the primaryslave and the secondary slaves must be identical. For a description of theaddressing scheme used during call redirection, refer to “ DNA Redirection”on page 34.

There are two methods to re-establish the PVC to the primary slave end of thePVC once the PVC has been set up with a secondary slave end.

The first method provides an automatic reconnection when the primary slavebecomes available. This method is selected by means of the service datasetting the Slave Send Call Packet to “TRUE”. Note that only the primary slaveend of a PVC can have this option set.

Page 38: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

38 Chapter 2

241-1001-115 37.2S1

When the primary slave end of a PVC that subscribes to this option comes up,a call packet is sent to the master end of the PVC. The master then disconnectsthe current PVC if one is established and reconnects with the primary slave endof the PVC. Refer to Figure 11.

The second method of re-establishing the PVC to the primary slave end of thePVC is by disabling the currently established PVC to the secondary slave endof the PVC. The X.25 service supports an operator command that stops thePVC currently established to the secondary slave end of the PVC and re-establishes the PVC to the primary slave end of the PVC. This command isissued on the master end or the slave end.

Chapter 3Operations

This chapter provides an outline of the Operations, Administration, andMaintenance aspects of the system. The information in this chapter is orderedas follows:

• Introduction

• Call redirection system operator commands

• Call redirection system service data

• Alarms

• Accounting

• Statistics

• Call redirection system reports

IntroductionThe Call Redirection Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM)System provides an integrated set of facilities managing the Call RedirectionSystem. The Call Redirection OAM System provides three managementcapabilities:

• Operation for status monitoring and control.

• Administration for service assignment, configuration and data collection.

• Maintenance for fault diagnosis, isolation and service restoration.

The OAM system is supported by the following:

• operator commands

• service data

• system reports

• alarms

Page 42: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

42 Chapter 3

241-1001-115 37.2S1

• accounting

• statistical data

Call redirection system operator commandsOperator commands are provided for use on the Access Module (AM) andResource Module (RM).

DPN AM/RM operator commandsThere are a number of operator commands that are specific to the DPN AM/RM Call Redirection Server. These commands can be issued from a DPN NCSterminal or the AM/RM Local Operator. The following types of operatorcommands can be issued:

• querying of envelopes

• displaying contents of DNA redirection file

• displaying of dynamic DNA redirection information

• displaying call information

• displaying statistics

• setting statistic flags

• allowing or disallowing dynamic redirection assignment

• initializing the Call Redirection Server

DPN RM operator commandsThere are a number of operator commands that are specific to the DPN RMCall Redirection Remote Server Interface. The operator commands can beissued for the following:

• querying of envelopes

• displaying lists of Remote Server Interfaces

• displaying statistics

• setting statistic flags

• displaying call information

A complete list of the supported commands and their capabilities is providedin NTP 241-1001-303Operator Commands and Responses.

Call redirection system service dataThe service data required by the Call Redirection System is explained infurther detail, below.

Page 43: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

Operations 43

DPN-100 DPN Call Redirection System User Guide 37.2S1

DPN AM/RM redirection service dataThe processing of service data at the Call Redirection Server is consistent withthat on the DPN AM/RM system. That is, the redirection envelopes arereceived from the provisioning system and are stored on the DPN AM/RMdisk.

Only a single view of Redirection Server service data is provided within eachMaster Configuration File (MCF).

Note that DNA or DNIC can be changed dynamically by activating a newMCF. This procedure does not take the server out of service. However, if theserver DNA/CUG envelope is changed, then the server is taken out of servicewhile it re–initializes with the new service data.

DPN AM/RM CRserv service data envelopesThree types of service data envelopes are required by the DPN AM/RMRedirection Server.

1 Process-type Envelope: This envelope defines the global number of theredirection server process to be created.

2 DNA/CUG Envelope: This envelope defines the parameters necessary forreceiving calls at the Redirection Server from the DPN-RM CRD-RSI. Itis consistent with the general description of the envelope in the DPN AM/RM system. See NTP 241-2001-340Envelope Definitions.

3 DNIC Redirection List Envelope: This envelope defines all the DNICredirection information. It defines each primary DNIC with all itssecondary SNRID members. See NTP 241-2001-340EnvelopeDefinitions.

Copies of the three envelopes are delivered separately to each Call RedirectionServer. With the exception of the DNA in the DNA/CUG envelope, all copiesof the envelopes normally contain the same information.

DNA redirection list fileThis is a file which defines all the fixed DNA redirection lists given as primaryDNA with all its secondary members. See NTP 241-2001-340EnvelopeDefinitions.

Each DNA is stored in full international format. The provisioning system alsoprovides a Call Redirection Manager (REDMAN) SDA envelope specifyingwhether the name of the DNA is in the Redirection List File. See NTP241-2001-340Envelope Definitions.

Page 44: DPN Call Redirection System User Guide

44 Chapter 3

241-1001-115 37.2S1

Criticality of service dataIt is possible to change some Call Redirection service data without adverselyaffecting Call Redirection service. A new MCF must be activated on the AMor RM that contains the Call Redirection Server. This new MCF will differfrom the currently active MCF in only the DNIC Redirection Envelope, theDNA Redirection List File, or both.

If this is the case, the Call Redirection Server will take the new data andprocess it into its database. The old data will be replaced by the new withoutinterrupting the Call Redirection Service.

Activation of a modified DNA/CUG envelope will cause all SVCs to becleared and reconnected, causing a brief outage.

DPN RM CRD-RSI service dataThe processing of service data for the RM Call Redirection Remote ServerInterface (CRD-RSI).

At the Office level, service data is required to define

• the RID redirection list for the CRD-RSI

• the DNA/CUGs for the CRD-RSI

• the DNA/LIST information used by the CRD-RSI to call the CallRedirection Servers elsewhere in the network.

See NTP 241-2001-340Envelope Definitions for a description of theseenvelopes.

The Office level service data resides in separate files so that it is not necessaryto load it into the PEs other than the Office PE and Server PE. The data is keptat the Office level so that all RSIs are guaranteed to receive the same data.

At the PE level, service data is required to cause the creation of Remote ServerInterfaces (RSI) for the Call Redirection System.

AlarmsThere are a number of alarms generated by the AM/RM Redirection Server,RM Call Redirection Server Interface. See NTP 241-1001-506Alarm ConsoleIndications for a detailed description of the specific alarms.

Operations 45

DPN-100 DPN Call Redirection System User Guide 37.2S1

AccountingThe internal SVCs for the Call Redirection System do not generate anyaccounting information.

StatisticsThe AM/RM CRServ collects statistical information about its currentoperational condition. A statistic record is forwarded to the DPN-NCS dataspooling site if the STATSPOOL flag is enabled by the operator. The defaultsetting of the flag is specified in the AM/RM DNA/CUG envelope. On everystatistics probe received by the AM/RM CRServ, a statistics record isgenerated. The PE utilization value of the server PE is also required.
