Import Routes for a Route Set

When you import a Route, the column definitions and minimum fields are required in the file. Formulas specified in Oracle Communications Route Manager during the import process are applied globally and stored with each record during the importation process.

Note:

You can import Routes from either .csv file or a .txt file.

A value supplied in the formula field of a record has precedence over the formula specified in Oracle Communications Route Manager during the importation process. Order and precedence determine order of the numbers in the XML file, with the lowest appearing first.

You must specify the filename and the file format (.csv or .txt ) and allow the mapping of CSV columns to Oracle Communications Route Manager properties. Finally, a confirmation displays of what is imported, including a display of error messages.

Starting with SDM 9.0.2:
  • Pub-id of the type Range is supported
  • Semicolon, Tab, and Space characters are supported as delimeters.

Note:

You can import 100,000 entries per LRT file. If you import more than 100,000 entries, it may lead to performance impact.

Note:

The route set version increments after you commit the route set.
