- This page is used for creating routing rules for your domain.
- Routing can be based on the following information:
- Customer (Organization Name)
- Sender Name / Sender Number
- Destination
- Vendor
- By default, the system checks the matching by the following column order:
- 1. Customer > 2. Src Prefix (Sender) > 3. Dest Prefix (Destination) >4. Vendor.
- If multiple matches are found in each column, the one with the longest explicit match is chosen.
- If no match is found, the SMS will go with the default routing rule.
Note:
Limit: 1000 routing rules per domain.
Configure a routing rule
To create a routing rule, follow the steps below:
Click Create > Fill in the information:
- Organization: choose a created Customer account within the Domain
- Select Sender type:

-
Src Prefix:
-
Name:
- Matching type = EXACT (The system will look up the exact pattern)
- Src Prefix = Pick one of the available Sender Names in the list.
-
Number:
- Matching type = PREFIX (The longest prefix matching criteria applies while each step is performed. At each step, if multiple matches are found, the on with the longest explicit match is chosen.)
- Src Prefix = Input the Prefix
- Example:
- Src Prefix 1: 65
- Src Prefix 2: 656
-
Src Prefix 3: 65675
- >> Sender ID = 656750xxxx matches Src Prefix 3
- >> Sender ID = 6568xxxxxx matches Src Prefix 2
- >> Sender ID = 653xxxxxxx matches Src Prefix 1
-
Name:

Destination Prefix:

- Rule 2: SMS sent by any customers with sender IDs starting with 65 to destinations starting with 658 will be routed to vendor B
- Rule 3: SMS sent by any customers with sender IDs starting with 65 to destinations starting with 65 will be routed to vendor C
- Rule 4: SMS sent by ABC with sender IDs starting with 6567 to the number 6598765432 will be routed to vendor B
- Rule 5: SMS sent by ABC with sender ID = 6560000000 to destinations starting with 658 will be routed to vendor D
- Rule 6: SMS sent by ABC with sender ID = ABC Dentist to any destinations will be routed to vendor B
3. Checking rules:
- The system will check the matching by the following column order:
- 1. Customer > 2. Src Prefix (Sender ID) > 3. Dest Prefix (Destination) >4. Vendor.
- At each column, if multiple matches are found, the one with the longest explicit match is chosen.
- If no match is found, the SMS will go with the default routing rule.
