Following are two important functions of GUI that ICTBroadcast provides to manage rates and routes.
Filter Destinations

Show Country Name

OCN Based Routing
ICTBroadcast facilitates its users to implement the LCR technique in Routing. LCR synonym of Least Cost Routing is a process to find the most inexpensive way to route phone calls. It is the process of analyzing and selecting the most economical path of outbound and inbound communications traffic. LCR can be configured in ICTBroadcast by adding the prefixes of available networks. When a number is dialed, ICTBroadcast chooses the route which has the same prefix as a number with the most economical rates.
However, in case of number portability, LCR could not be implemented and in such case CNAME module provide solutions. CNAM query gets the information about that number through OCN, on the basis of that information route is selected.
