ISDND.RATES(5)						      BSD File Formats Manual						    ISDND.RATES(5)

NAME

     isdnd.rates -- isdn4bsd ISDN management daemon rates description file

DESCRIPTION

     The file isdnd.rates contains descriptions how long charging units last at a given time of day, day of week and the distance to the destina-
     tion.  If this file is available, this information may be used by the isdnd(8) ISDN connection management daemon to calculate the short hold
     time for a connection.

     The format of a rate entry line is as follows:

     The first field, the (rate-code) defines a collection of rates (for each day of the week) which can be referenced in the isdnd(8) configura-
     tion file isdnd.rc(5).  This field must start with the identifier ``ra'' followed by a digit in the range of zero to four.

     The second field, the (day-number) selects the day of week for which this entry defines the rates, where 0 stands for Sunday, 1 for Monday
     and so on until the digit 6 which stands for Saturday.

     The rest of the line consists of one or more space separated fields which have the following syntax:

	   start_hour.start_minutes-end_hour.end_minutes:charge_unit_length

     Start_hour and start_minutes define the begin of a time section and end_hour and end_minutes define the end.  Charge_unit_length define the
     length of a charging unit in the previously defined time section.	No spaces or tabs are allowed inside this field.  The hour and minutes
     specifications MUST have exactly 2 digits, in case just one digit is needed, a leading 0 must be used.

     For example,

	   14.00-18.00:90

     defines, that between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM the length of one charging unit lasts 90 seconds.

FILES

     /etc/isdn/isdnd.rates  The default rates specification file for the isdnd ISDN daemon.

EXAMPLES

     The line:

     ra0 0 00.00-05.00:240 05.00-21.00:150 21.00-24.00:240

     defines the unit lengths for a Sunday.
