Call routing based on time frames

Grant Bagdasarian · ‎03-08-2012

Hello,

I have the following requirement. I want to configure the max-conn an incoming called-number may have based on a certain time frame. Something like the below(This is more dialpeer matching based on configured time). I know that its not possible like this, but I was hoping there is another way to achieve something similar.

dial-peer voice 1000 voip

timeframe 08:00:00 10:00:00

max-conn 10

incoming called-number 123456789

dial-peer voice 1001 voip

timeframe 11:00:00 17:00:00

max-conn 2

incoming called-number 123456789

If it is possible in some way, which IOS and CallManager(Express) do I need?

Thanks,

Grant

Grant,

The only time of day routing in CME I am aware of is after-hours call blocking future:

What is the purpose of this, what the numbers have to be, what's the call-flow / operating need ?

We are developing a call forwarding application based on time frames. Each time frame has a maximum amount of

simultaneous calls. The numbers are 0800 numbers and 0900(premium rate in Holland).

I specifically need something which has the ability to control the maximum connections allowed for a given timeframe and phonenumber. I already have some solutions, but these require me to code. I was just wondering if there is something like this already implemented by cisco in callmanager(express) or somewhere else.
