control is sent to Step 10, where the
route-to number
command sends the call to
vector 60, which allows the caller to leave a recorded message. The first step of
vector 60 contains an
announcement
command, which is not skipped, since the
treatment step is
not
the first non-
goto
step branched to by a
goto
step that
follows an adjunct routing command whose ASAI link is down [the
route-to
number
step (Step 10) in vector 40 is the first such step]. Similarly, neither the
wait-time
step (Step 2) nor the second
announcement
step (Step 4) is skipped.
Returning to Step 7 in vector 40, let’s assume that there are 50 or fewer calls in
queue. In such a case, the
goto
step fails and, as a result, the
announcement
step (Step 8) that immediately follows this step is skipped. (Remember, even
though this
goto
step does not immediately follow the
adjunct routing
step, the
former step qualifies as a test case because it is branched to by another
goto
step that does immediately follow the adjunct ro
uting
step.) Thereafter, the
goto
vector
step (Step 9) routes the call again to vector 50, which is designed to
queue the call and provide standard call treatment.
The following table summarizes the procedures discussed in this section. In so
doing, the table refers back to the vectors presented in the previous screen.
Awaiting the Response to the Call Route Request
After the switch sends a route request to the ASAI adjunct, vector processing
continues with the following vector steps.
The step that follows the
adjunct routing
step in effect determines the maximum
length of time the switch will wait for the ASAI adjunct to reply with a call route.
