In this article

Section overview

This section represents a route analyzer tool that allows to manage dynamical routes and simulate different routing models without hurting live voice traffic. It should be noted that this tool can be used only in a case when you are using Dynamic Routing feature.

The Routing Analysis section represents a query form with the following parameters:

Attention

Please note that if there are changes in the Term Rate Table, you need to launch Dynamic Routing Manager in the Task Scheduler section (System > Task Scheduler). Routing Analysis shows routes based on routing table built on the last run of the Dynamic Routing Manager. So you won't be able to see the latest changes regarding Routing Rules until Dynamic Routing Manager is restarted.
