VOIP术语总结

CLI: calling line identity

CPS:calls persecond

ACD:Average Call Duration measures the average length of time a call remains connected.

PDD:Post Dial Delay measures the amount of time after the user dials a phone number till the time the user hears a ring-back tone.

LRN:Location Routing Number,a unique 10-digit telephone number assigned to each switch. The LRN approach made it possible to introduce LNP without radically changing the Public Switched Telephone Network.

它是存储在服务控制中心的数据库中的10进制数字，为本地电话局识别连接到的端口。
在美国，定位寻址号(LRN)是存储在被称为服务控制中心(SCP)的数据库中的10进制数字，它为本地电话局识别连接到的端口。LRN这种技术旨在实现本地号码可移植。使用LRN，当一个电话号码被呼叫时，本地电话局会搜索寻址数据库，通常是SCP，查找与署名用户相关的LRN。

ANI: Automatic number identification. 自动识别呼叫者电话号码

CLI：  Calling Line Identificationin Europe like ANI.

Caller ID(caller identification,CID), also calledcalling line identification(CLID),calling number delivery(CND),calling number identification(CNID) orcalling line identification presentation(CLIP).Caller ID allows the person being called to see the number (and sometimes the name) of the person calling them, when they have the correct equipment to receive the callerid information. Caller id is often an added value (i.e extra cost) service from your telco. You can usually withhold sending of the caller id on outgoing calls by dialling a special code before the number.

Caller ID (caller identification ,CID), 也被叫做Calling line identification (CLID)或者 calling caller ID(CNID), 它是一种电话服务，在模拟电话、电子电话系统、和符合VoIP（Voice over Internet Protocol）等的应用中经常见到。它可以在通话时把自己电话号码传给接电话的人，显示的时间段是电话响铃，也就是通话建立，但是还没有被接电话的人拿起电话的那段时间。也就是来电显示。

有的时候，Caller ID还包含姓名信息。当然，这个涉及到隐私问题，需要本人同意才可。Caller ID可能会产生一些问题，比如存在Caller ID欺骗的可能性。

DID:means Direct Inward Dialing. It is a number (or a range of numbers) which can be used to receive calls. Voxbone's DID product name is VoxDID and refers to geographic or national telephone numbers.

DDI: Same as DID.In the USA people use the term DID (Direct Inward Dialing) whereas in Europe people use the term DDI (Direc Dial-In).

What is CPC and what does it stand for?
CPC stands for Calling Party Category. It identifies the call origin and enables you to benefit from a differentiated price structure, especially for toll-free numbers. ordinary or cellular or payphone

DNIS: DNIS stands for Dialed Number Identification Service and can allow you to route the call based on the dialed number.

ring back
回铃音是电话系统中当一个主叫拨通一个号码听到的断续的声音，而此时线路的远端将收到一个响铃的信号。它可以由被叫用户或主叫用户的服务交换产生，而不是由被叫设备产生。回铃音也被称作是audible, audible ringing tone, ringback tone以及ringtone。
　　回铃音的出现并不一定意味着远端设备已被触发。比如说，如果线路和远端电话线都处于正常的工作状态，但是被叫用户并没有连着电话机或其它设备，主叫用户是仍然可以听到回铃音的。而没有出现回铃音则一般代表远端线路还没被连上。
　　当延迟自动呼叫系统呼叫远端设备时，有时也用术语回铃音来指代主叫收到的响铃信号。
象移动的彩铃，别人打你电话在接通之前听到的声音。电信（包括固定电话）和联通都有相似业务。
A ringback tone (or ringing tone) is an audible indication that is heard on the telephone line by the caller while the phone they are calling is being rung. It is normally a repeated tone, designed to assure the calling party that the called party's line is ringing, although the ring-back tone may be out of sync with the ringing signal.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringback_tone)
