Trunk Route Optimization
Trunk Route Optimization (TRO) finds the most direct route through the network to send a call
between nodes. This function occurs during the initial alerting phase of a call.
BCM configurations:
•Under Configuration > Dialing Plan > Private Network, select the check box beside TRO.
• Configure call routing for all optimal routes.
• Configure call forward (All Calls, No Answer, Busy) or Selective Line Redirection to use the
optimal routes.
This feature avoids the following situation: A call originating from a BCM system may be
networked to a Meridian system, which, in turn, is networked to another Meridian system, which is
the destination for the call. If the call routes through the first Meridian (M1) to reach the second
Meridian (M2), two trunks are required for the call. An optimal choice is a straight connection to
M2. This finds these connections and overrides the less-efficient setup.
Figure 8 shows two call paths. The first route, through the Meridian, demonstrates how a call
might route if TRO is not active. The second route, that bypasses the Meridian, demonstrates how
TRO selects the optimum routing for a call.

Trunk Anti-tromboning
Trunk Anti-Tromboning (TAT) is a call-reroute feature that works to find better routes during a
transfer of an active call. This feature acts to prevent unnecessary tandeming and tromboning of
trunks.
Note: This feature is not applicable for alerting calls.
