An enhancement to Automatic Alternate Routing/Automatic Route Selection (AAR/ARS) that performs rout-
ing based on call attributes, such as Bearer Capability Classes (BCCs), in addition to the address and facilities 
restriction level (FRL), thus facilitating a Uniform Dial Plan (UDP) that is independent of the type of call

The number of call attempts that fail to receive service immediately. Grade of service is also expressed as the 
quantity of all calls that are blocked or delayed.

A trunk on which, for outgoing calls, the system transmits a request for services to a distant switching system 
by grounding the trunk ring lead. To receive the digits of the called number, that system grounds the trunk tip 
lead. When the system detects this ground, the digits are sent.

Generalized Route Selection

An ISDN information transfer rate for 384-kbps data defined by CCITT and ANSI standards.
