Creating LCR rules

Understanding LCR rules

 

When the Zetafax Server receives a fax from a network user, it checks the fax against each rule in turn. If the criteria of the fax match those of the rule, the server attempts to submit the fax to the first remote LCR server in the rules list. If that server is not available on the network, the other servers in the list are tried in turn. If the end of the list is reached and the fax does not match any of the rules, the fax is sent directly from the local server.

 

Creating LCR rules

 

•Click Rules from the LCR panel and you will be taken to the Routing rules window, which contains a list of the rules that are currently operating on your server.

 

To create a new rule

 

•Click New.

 

This displays the Edit Routing Rule dialog that includes a field to enter a Rule description , and several tabbed boxes containing rule information.

 

Typing an informative description of the rule will simplify the stages of defining the rule, and help you to understand your rules later when you come to prioritize them. Example descriptions include Send all urgent faxes via the local server and Send all faxes for North America via the New York server .
