In telecommunication, a spill-forward feature is a service feature, in the operation of an intermediate office, that, acting on incoming trunk service treatment indications, assumes routing control of the call from the originating office. This increases the chances of completion by offering the call to more trunk groups than are available in the originating office.
Famous quotes containing the word feature:
“With men he can be rational and unaffected, but when he has ladies to please, every feature works.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
