 VALID ENTRIES:

A
B
C
D
X - No requirements

NOTE 1: The entry (A, B, C, D) identifies the REF of the trunk group to which the specified traffic is first routed.

NOTE 2: Use of "X" is based on provider tariffs/practices.

USAGE: This field is conditional.

NOTE 1: Routing Matrix entries are required when routing is being added or changed.  The Routing Matrix entries indicate the new requirements.

NOTE 2: An entry in the 'ALL' column for a specific ANI, e.g. '00' indicates that the referenced trunk group (A, B, C, D) carries the traffic for all Service Prefixes for that ANI.  Entries in the remaining columns in that row are prohibited.

NOTE 3: If the 'ALL' column for a specific ANI is not  populated, a positive entry (A, B, C, D or X) is  required for each Service Prefix in that ANI II row that is being added or changed.

NOTE 4: An entry in the 'ALL' row for a specific Service Prefix, e.g., 1+, indicates that the referenced trunk group carries the traffic for all ANI II digits for that Service Prefix.  Entries in the remainder of that Service Prefix column are prohibited.

NOTE 5: If the 'ALL' row for a specific Service Prefix is not populated, a positive entry (A, B, C, D or X) is required for each ANI II in that Service Prefix column that is being added or changed.

NOTE 6: If there is an entry in the 'ALL' row for a Service Prefix and an entry in the 'ALL' column for an ANI II, the trunk group reference must be the same.

NOTE 7: Otherwise optional.

DATA CHARACTERISTICS: 1 alpha character

EXAMPLE:

NOTE 1: Use of "B" in the "ALL" Column indicates that  referenced trunk group ("B") carries the traffic for all service prefixes for the ANI II digit 07.

NOTE 2: An entry of "B" in the "ALL" Service Prefix row prohibits entries in the remainder of that service prefix column.  Use of the "ALL" row indicates that referenced trunk group ("B") carries the traffic for all ANI II digits for that service prefix 00.
