== DNS Query ==
== DNS Query ==
Similarly to ENUM query, starting with release 3.1, it is possible to issue DNS Query requests to DNS servers from routing scripts. This could be used to skip the ENUM Query part when the called uri is already known but still need to get the matching outgoing NAP, NAP proxy IP and port. To do so, the params[:dns_query] object must be filled with the required DNS Query attributes params[:dns_query][:fqdn] and [[#Refuse|an exception must be raised]] with reason :dns_query_required.
[[Routing Script Tutorial: DNS Query|Learn how to send DNS Query requests to DNS servers in routing scripts.]]
 
When DNS Query completes, the routing script is called again with the result. The params[:dns_query] object will be filled with the DNS Query attributes from the responses. The DNS query responses are available through params[:dns_query][:responses_list] call parameters:
 
<code>
  params[:dns_query][:responses_list]
    [{:nap=>"NAP_UDP", :nap_proxy_ip=>"10.3.14.191", :nap_proxy_port=>"8080", :transport=>"UDP", :order=>"100",
      :preference=>"1", :priority=>"0", :weight=>"5"},
    {:nap=>"NAP_TCP", :nap_proxy_ip=>"10.3.14.192", :nap_proxy_port=>"8081", :transport=>"TCP", :order=>"100",
      :preference=>"2", :priority=>"1", :weight=>"10"}]
</code>
 
=== Add dynamic routes ===
 
Similarly to ENUM Query, the DNS query could also create dynamic routes base on DNS query responses. This could be requested using the "add_dynamic_routes" call parameter:
 
<code>
  params[:dns_query][:add_dynamic_routes] = true
</code>
 
The "base_routing.rb" script version should be greater then 1.37 in order to allow dynamic routes creation base on DNS query responses.
 
When requesting to add_dynamic_routes, the dns_query responses are used to create routes. Make sure that your configuration include a route with remapped_nap = "Registered or DNS users". A route will be created for each DNS query responses. The routes "remapped_nap" takes NAP value from DNS query responses.


It is required to modify main routing script (i.e. simple_routing_sbc.rb) to forward IP/port values from params[:routes] to params[:call] like we are doing for NAP. See following example:
== Call Diversion Options ==
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Call Diversion Options|Learn how control a call flow with diversion options.]]


<code>
== Call Transfer Requests ==
  ...
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Call Transfer Requests|Learn how to route call transfer requests.]]
  # This will select the outgoing NAP for this call according to the "remapped_nap" route parameter
  route_remap :call_field_name => :nap, :route_field_name => :remapped_nap
 
  # This will select the outgoing NAP proxy ip address for this call according to the "remapped_nap_proxy_ip" route parameter
  route_remap :call_field_name => :nap_proxy_ip, :route_field_name => :remapped_nap_proxy_ip
 
  # This will select the outgoing NAP proxy port for this call according to the "remapped_nap_proxy_port" route parameter
  route_remap :call_field_name => :nap_proxy_port, :route_field_name => :remapped_nap_proxy_port
  ...
</code>
 
== Call diversion options ==
It's possible to control the call flow when a call diversion information is received in the alerting state.
 
Two fields are available: bridge[ :diversion ] and bridge[ :diversion_reason ]
 
The internal release cause TOOLPACK_DIVERT_NOT_ALLOWED is used by gateway application to terminate both legs.
 
  bridge[ :diversion ] = :allowed
The alert message will not be analyzed and the call will be progressed. Default behavior.
  bridge[ :diversion ] = :not_allowed
If the alert message indicates that the call is diverted, the call will be released no matter the In-band information to allow
early media.
  bridge[ :diversion ] = :not_allowed_w_early_media
The call will be released If the alert message indicates that the call is diverted with in-band information to allow early media.
  bridge[ :diversion_reason ] = "*"
If the diversion is not allowed, the gateway will drop the call for any redirecting reason.
  bridge[ :diversion_reason ] = "0,1,2"
or
  bridge[ :diversion_reason ] = "unknown,busy,no_reply"
If the diversion is not allowed, the redirecting reason will be analyzed and the call will only be dropped for the configured cases.
 
See section [[Routing_script_tutorial:Mini_Development_Guide#Redirecting_number,_Original_Called_Number_and_Diversion_Reason|Redirecting number reason values]].
 
== Call transfer requests ==
Toolpack allows that [[Call transfer]] requests are relayed from one leg to the other, or to process them locally (making another outgoing call to replace the call that requested the call transfer).
 
If the chosen [[Call transfer]] mode is to process requests locally, upon reception of a call transfer request (SIP REFER or ISDN Facility), routing script will be called once again, to select the routes for the new outgoing call (call transfer target).
 
=== How to route call transfer request ===
Routing of a call transfer request is done exactly like routing of a normal incoming call.
The routing script generally does not need any modification to support that.
 
In some cases, the routing script may want to use information related to the transfer request to perform routing, or to insert information in the outgoing call leg.
Additional information is provided to the routing script, allowing routing decisions using information from the call transfer request (SIP REFER or ISDN Facility).
See below...
 
=== params[ :call ] content during transfer request ===
When processing a call transfer request, the params[ :call ] hash contains the information from the inbound call (same as was passed to the routing script upon arrival of the inbound call)
call = params[ :call ]          -> Information from original inbound call, with exception of call[ :called ]
 
One exception (convenient because it allows a unmodified routing script to process call transfer request the same way as any other routing request):
call[ :called ]                -> Replaced by the called number from the call transfer request (also called "redirection number")
Complementary information:
call[ :original_called_number ] -> Contains the called number that was initially received from the incoming call, prior to call transfer request
call[ :redirecting_number ]    -> Number of the call from which the call transfer request was received (generally equals to original_called_number)
 
These fields will also be included in the outgoing call made after routing:
* original called number and redirecting number are existing fields on SS7 and ISDN calls
* SIP "diversion" header is used for SIP calls
 
=== params[ :transfer ] content ===
(this if valid only for release 2.7.102 and above)<br>
When processing a call transfer request, information from the call transfer request message (SIP REFER, ISDN Facility) is provided in params[ :transfer ]:
  transfer = params[ :transfer ]
The following field is always present:
  transfer[ :original_nap ]      -> Contains the NAP of the first call from which a call transfer request was received
  transfer[ :redirecting_nap ]  -> Contains the NAP of the call from which the current call transfer request was received
                                    (same as :original_nap for the first call transfer, different for subsequent transfers)
Examples of other fields that may be present, when appropriate:
  transfer[ :uui ]              -> The UUI (user-to-user information) found in the call transfer request
  transfer[ :sip_header ]       -> Contains custom SIP headers from the call transfer request
  transfer[ :request_uri ]       -> Contains the SIP Request URI
 
These fields are 'read-only'. They will not be included in the outgoing call, as they represent the contents of the call transfer request, and not the outgoing call to be made.
 
To insert/modify attributes of the outgoing call, the parameters from params[ :call ] must be edited instead.


== Redirection ==
== Redirection ==
In release 2.8 and above, redirection contacts are obtained from the routing engine in the following format:
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Redirection|Learn how to get redirection contacts.]]
 
  contacts = params[ :contacts ]
  contacts = {
      :index=>"3",
      :list=>[
        {:called_number=>"6660", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"", :raw_data=>"", :expiration=>"3600"},
        {:called_number=>"6661", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"sip:6661@192.168.215.127", :raw_data=>"<sip:6661@192.168.215.127>", :expiration=>"3600"}
        {:called_number=>"6662", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"sip:6662@192.168.215.128", :raw_data=>"<sip:6662@192.168.215.128>", :expiration=>"3600"},
        {:called_number=>"6663", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"sip:6663@192.168.215.129", :raw_data=>"<sip:6663@192.168.215.129>", :expiration=>"3600"},
        {:called_number=>"6664", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"sip:6664@192.168.215.150", :raw_data=>"<sip:6664@192.168.215.150>", :expiration=>"3600"}
      ],
      :source_indexes=>"nil,0,0,0,2"
  }


* <code>params[:contacts][:list]</code> contains the contact log. Each contact within the list has the following fields:
== Connected Number ==
** <code>:called_number</code> - the called number
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Connected Number|Connected Number]]
** <code>:is_number_ported</code> - if the called number has been ported (for SIP: if the npdi parameter is present)
** <code>:ported_number</code> - the called number that was ported (for SIP: the rn parameter value, if available)
** <code>:sip_uri</code> - the SIP URI of the contact, without the contact-params section (without the expires and q contact parameters)
** <code>:raw_data</code> - the raw data representing the contact in the signaling protocol. For SIP, this is the full SIP URI (including the expires and q contact parameters).
** <code>:priority</code> - the priority of the contact [0-1000]
** <code>:expiration</code> - the expiration time in seconds of the contact
* <code>params[:contacts][:index]</code> contains the index of the contact that is currently being routed.
* <code>params[:contacts][:source_indexes]</code> contains a comma-separated list of indexes from <code>params[:contacts][:list]</code>. Each index represents the contact from which the contact in the list was obtained from.


 
== Terminating Calls ==
To get more information, see:
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Terminating Calls|Learn how to terminate calls with routing scripts.]]
*[[Routing_script_tutorial:SIP_Redirection_Contacts|SIP Redirection Contacts Parameters in a Call Flow]]
 
 
== Connected number ==
Insert a connected number in the answer message of the call flow.
 
Routing script example:
    bridge = params[ :bridge ]
    bridge [ :connected_number ] = "3335577"
    bridge [ :connected_number_noa ] = :national_number
    bridge [ :connected_number_npi ] = :private
    bridge [ :connected_number_presentation ] = :allowed
    bridge [ :connected_number_screening ] = :pass
 
== Terminating calls ==
In release 2.8, it is now possible to terminate a call through the routing scripts. The [[#Reason values|reason code]] must be specified in <code>params[:bridge][:reason]</code>. The <code>:terminate</code> hash must be created and copied into <code>params</code>:
  terminate = {}
  params[:terminate] = terminate
The following fields can then be set in <code>:terminate</code>:
* <code>:sip_header</code>
* <code>:contacts</code> # list of contacts as described in the [[#Redirection|redirection]] section
* <code>:isup_raw</code>
* <code>:isup_raw_variant</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number_noa</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number_npi</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number_presentation</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number_reason</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number_counter</code>
* <code>:redirecting_number_indicator</code>
* <code>:original_called_number</code>
* <code>:original_called_number_noa</code>
* <code>:original_called_number_npi</code>
* <code>:original_called_number_presentation</code>
* <code>:original_called_number_reason</code>
* <code>:original_called_number_counter</code>

<br> The nap status is part of a substructure and will be a hash containing all subfield elements.
 
=== Example to access NAP information and NAP status of the current call ===
<br> To find the incoming nap in a routing script, we can do this in before_filter or after_filter and use these lines to create a symbol:
    incoming_nap = params[:call][:nap].to_sym
    log_trace 1, "incoming_nap = " + incoming_nap.inspect
 
<br> To get the configured NAP list, you can do this:
    nap_lists = params[:naps]
    log_trace 1, "nap_lists = " + nap_lists.inspect
 
<br> From the list above, you can find how many calls you have on this NAP:
    log_trace 1,"Incoming NAP call count=" + nap_lists[incoming_nap][:asr_stats_incoming_struct][:total_call_cnt].inspect
<br> Or which network the call is coming from:
    log_trace 1,"Incoming NAP signaling type=" + nap_lists[incoming_nap][:signaling_type].inspect
 
<br> If you are using a "NAP Columns" custom parameter (Create New NAP Column), you can get the information (since incoming_nap is a symbol):
    network_type = nap_lists[incoming_nap][:network_type]
    log_trace 1, "For incoming_nap = " + incoming_nap.inspect + " network_type is: " + network_type.inspect
 
<br> If you want to modify something according to nap information, you may need to do a loop like this:
    nap_lists.each do |nap_list,nap_info|
      log_trace 1, "NAP: " + nap_info[:name].inspect + " network_type: " + nap_info[:network_type].inspect

In release 2.10 and the above, telephony services (CNAM Request) can be manage from the routing engine in the following format:
 
  params[:telephony_services].each do |service|  -> Array of telephony services
    service[:name]                              -> Customer telephony service name
    service[:type]                              -> For now only "CNAM Request"
    service[:enabled]                            -> Indicate if the service is enabled (true) or not (false)
                                                    (Only the telephony service define in the profile associated to the NAP is enabled)
                                                    (The others telephony services define in others profiles are disabled)
                                                    (If we are in the case where we return in the routing script with a response, it is important to set :enabled to false in order to avoid repeating the same query)
    serviceParams = service[:params]
    serviceParams[:return_to_script]            -> Indicates to Gateway if we must return to the routing script after receiving the CNAM response
                                                    (It is important to set back to false this field to avoid an infinite loop)
    serviceQuery = service[:query]
    serviceQuery[:phone]                        -> 10 digits of calling number from the incoming call to send to the CNAM server
    serviceQuery[:timeout]                      -> Timeout in millisecond to wait a CNAM response from CNAM server
                                                    (Default value from profile configuration)
    serviceResponse = service[:response]
    serviceResponse[:success]                    -> Indicates if we received a good CNAM response from the CNAM Server (Only present if :return_to_script is set to true)
    serviceResponse[:caller_name]                -> The caller name received in the CNAM response from the CNAM Server (Only present if :return_to_script is set to true)
 
== Custom user context ==
The routing script may '''save per-call information within the call context''', that will be available if routing is called again later during the call flow.
 
Cases where routing is called multiple times for the same call are:
- Call transfer requests
- SIP redirect requests
- Radius Authorization result
- Announcement server with digit collection
 
The routing script can save a recursive hash of attributes here:
  params[:user_context]


For example
== Custom User Context ==
  params[:user_context] = { "SomeKey" => "Some value I want to retrieve upon next routing for this call", "OtherVal" => { "subkey" => "subval" } }
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Custom User Context|Custom User Context]]
 
Upon first call to routing script, params[:user_context] will be nil.
Upon subsequent calls to routing script, it will contain whatever the script had stored upon previous call (or nil if it was not set)
 
Note: This feature is available starting from release 2.9.85, 2.10.31 and 3.0.15 (in respective branches 2.9, 2.10 or 3.0)

== Routing Script Tests ==
The Web portal features a tool for Testing Scripts. The user must enter parameters to simulate the incoming call and after pressing the Test button, will output selected routes and numbers.  You do not need to activate the new routes, or the new scripts to use this test tool: It can be used to test the routing scripts and routing table before activating it.
[[Routing Script Tutorial: Routing Script Tests|Learn how to use the Web Portal to test your routing scripts.]]
This is available in the Routing Scripts section of the Web portal.
 
=== Test parameters ===
==== @call_params  ====
 
That variable should contain a hash of call parameters that will be passed to the routing script. This is equivalent to the incoming call parameters.
 
<br>
 
==== @nap_list  ====
 
A list of the hash containing the nap statuses. This is equivalent to the nap statuses at the time the call is to be routed.
 
'''The nap list is hashed by the nap names in UPPERCASE.''' It is important to consider this when creating new dynamic route or nap attributes that may nap names that will be used to fetch a status.
 
<br>
 
==== @params  ====
 
A hash of hashes containing parameters. This hash contains bridge parameters and other kind of parameter groups may be added in the future.
 
  @params = {
    :bridge => {:announcement_tone, "announcement.wav"},
    :contacts => {
      :index=>"1",
      :list=>[
          {:called_number=>"6660", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"",
          :raw_data=>"", :expiration=>"3600"},
          {:called_number=>"6661", :priority=>"1000", :is_number_ported=>"0", :sip_uri=>"sip:6661@192.168.215.127",
          :raw_data=>"<sip:6661@192.168.215.127>", :expiration=>"3600"}
      ],
      :source_indexes=>"nil,0"
    }
