Add and prioritize routes and virtual routes so your Workspace can send and receive communication traffic.

The Assign Routes tab has two sections:

• Routes — A route is a predefined path that directs messages and communication traffic to their destination. Configure each route with a connection name, priority, and assignment type.

  

  The Routes table includes the following columns:

  • Name — Route name.
  • Code — Route code number.
  • Connection Name — Connection used by the route.
  • Priority — Order in which the platform uses routes. Higher numbers have lower priority.
  • Assignment Type — Message types the route handles: mobile terminated (MT), mobile originated (MO), or both.
  • Validation — Test the route to confirm that it works correctly.
  • Actions — Select the trash bin icon to remove the route.

• Virtual Routes — A virtual route is a logical path that directs communication traffic without a physical connection. Virtual routes handle traffic within the platform's internal systems.

  

  The Virtual Routes table includes the following columns:

  • Name — Virtual route name.
  • Actions — Select the trash bin icon to remove the virtual route.
