27 Mar 2008

Right.... minimising cost is priority #1... and in this particular case the cheapest route
is NOT used.

  However, when you get routes from multiple carriers,
they don't  
 always bill on the same prefix boundaries. In my example above, LCR/ 
 Carierroute would match against Carrier1 for anything starting with  
 1650. HOWEVER, since 165 is also applicable (165 means 1650, 1651  
 and so on), and in this example cheaper, you should route 165 over  
 Carrier 2.

 What do people do in this case? 

It's called LCR for a reason, so I think minimizing cost should be  
priority 1. Once price has stopped being the differentiator other  
factors could be taken into account. Maybe price and other costs have  
to aggregated?
