Alternate Traffic Routing Clause Samples
The Alternate Traffic Routing clause establishes procedures for redirecting network or data traffic through alternative routes in the event of disruptions or failures in the primary path. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which rerouting is triggered, such as system outages, maintenance, or unexpected congestion, and may specify the responsibilities of each party in implementing and maintaining backup routing capabilities. Its core practical function is to ensure continuity of service and minimize downtime by providing a clear framework for maintaining network availability when standard routes are compromised.
Alternate Traffic Routing. If CLEC has a LIS arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a CenturyLink End Office Switch (one (1) route via a Tandem Switch and one (1) direct route), CLEC may elect to utilize alternate traffic routing. CLEC traffic will be offered first to the direct trunk group (also referred to as the "primary high" route) and then overflow to the Tandem Switch group (also referred to as the "alternate final" route) for completion to CenturyLink End Office Switches.
Alternate Traffic Routing. If CLEC has a LIS arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a Qwest end office (one (1) route via a tandem and one
Alternate Traffic Routing. If CLEC has an Interconnection trunk arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a Qwest end office (one (1) Route via a tandem and one (1) direct Route), CLEC may elect to utilize alternate traffic routing. CLEC traffic will be offered first to the direct trunk group (also referred to as the “primary high” Route) and then overflow to the tandem group (also referred to as the “alternate final” or “intermediate high” Route) for completion to Qwest end offices. The Parties will work cooperatively to develop and deploy additional alternate routing arrangements (e.g., intermediate high trunk groups) to resolve unusual traffic issues.
Alternate Traffic Routing. If WSP has a WIS arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a CenturyLink End Office Switch (one (1) route via a Tandem Switch and one (1) direct route), WSP may elect to utilize alternate traffic routing. WSP traffic will be offered first to the direct trunk group (also referred to as the "primary high" route) and then overflow to the Tandem Switch group (also referred to as the "alternate final" route) for completion to CenturyLink End Office Switches.
Alternate Traffic Routing. If VZW has a WIS arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a Qwest End Office Switch (one (1) route via a Tandem Switch and one
(1) direct route), VZW may elect to utilize alternate traffic routing. VZW traffic will be offered first to the direct trunk group (also referred to as the "primary high" route) and then overflow to the Tandem Switch group (also referred to as the "alternate final" route) for completion to Qwest End Office Switches.
Alternate Traffic Routing. If Sprint has a LIS arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a Qwest end office (one (1) route via a tandem and one
Alternate Traffic Routing. If NT&T has a Local arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a Windstream End Office Switch (one (1) route via a Tandem Switch and one (1) direct route), NT&T may elect to utilize alternate traffic routing. NT&T traffic will be offered first to the direct trunk group (also referred to as the "primary high" route) and then overflow to the Tandem Switch group (also referred to as the "alternate final" route) for completion to Windstream End Office Switches.
Alternate Traffic Routing. If Viaero Wireless has a WIS arrangement which provides two (2) paths to a CenturyLink QC End Office Switch (one (1) route via a Tandem Switch and one (1) direct route), Viaero Wireless may elect to utilize alternate traffic routing. Viaero Wireless traffic will be offered first to the direct trunk group (also referred to as the "primary high" route) and then overflow to the Tandem Switch group (also referred to as the "alternate final" route) for completion to CenturyLink QC End Office Switches.
