How does CURRI work?

Cisco Unified Routing Rules Interface (CURRI) Architecture

How does CURRI work?

The administrator assigns an External Call Control Profile (ECCP) to one or more Unified CM trigger points.

When dialed digits match an ECCP enabled pattern or number, Unified CM issues a Route Request over the Cisco Unified Routing Rules Interface (CURRI).

The adjunct Route Server evaluates the information and returns call handling instructions as a Decision with Obligation:

Decision - specifies if the call is Allowed or Denied

Obligation - contains specific call routing instructions and treatment

  • Route the call normally and optionally modify calling/called party number(s)
  • Divert the call to a different destination or to voice mail and optionally modify calling/called party number(s)
  • Reject the call and optionally play an announcement

Unified CM then routes the call based on the policy decision and obligation.
