In firmware 1.20 the way call routing was configured has been changed. In this FAQ you are going to find out what is different from previous firmware versions.
On 2N® BRI Lite and BRI Enterprise following changes have been done:
New LCR table allows you to have a complete control over where an incoming call (from VoIP, GSM or BRI interface) should be routed to. On pictures bellow you can see examples of differences between the new LCR table and the old one.
Records in LCR table are read from top to bellow. When a record that matches all conditions is found than the call is going to be sent to outgoing destination specified in that record. Therefore it is important to pay attention to the order in which you have your LCR table records organised!
From (channels/groups) - this parameter specifies where outgoing call originates. In case of BRI gateway it can be:
Prefix list - you must specify either one prefixlist, that the outgoing call number must match, or you can select option All prefixlists, where any outgoing call number that matches at least one prefixlist, will be routed by channel specified under Groups/Tariffs
Groups/Tariffs - this parameter specifies if outgoing call should go through a specific GSM outgoing group, VoIP or BRI interface (NT/TE)
This way you have a better control over how outgoing and incoming calls are handled and routed. Plus it is possible to route incoming calls from GSM back to GSM which was not possible in older firmware version.

In default there are 6 records which match the default setting of Port modes and LCR table from firmware 1.19 and older | You needed to setup both Port modes and LCR table. |

Calls coming from BRI NT interface (lines 2-4) are routed based on prefix lists.
Calls coming from VoIP (lines 6-8) are routed based on prefix lists:
| First you needed to change Port modes to match your desired scenario (top picture above) and than you needed to create 2 rules in your LCR table to match your scenario. |

![]() | Sending incoming calls from GSM back to GSM was not possible |
On picture above you can see how to set a scenario where all incoming calls from GSM incoming group 2 should be sent back to GSM through GSM outgoing group 1 (if dialled number will match Prefix list 2) | Sending incoming calls from GSM back to GSM was not possible |
![]() | Sending incoming calls from GSM back to GSM was not possible |
On the picture above you can see how to set described scenario. All calls from GSM incoming group 2 (matching prefix list 2) are sent back to GSM. | Sending incoming calls from GSM back to GSM was not possible |
