It can also be used for aggregating route records into groups. Once defined, use of this field must be consistent within the route set.

Note: If you enter a Pub-id Formula, the pub id field is disabled.
   Session Establishment Data (SED) drop-down list	Select the numerical entry for the next hop formula that generates the Session Establishment Data (SED).
   Order drop-down list	Select the numerical entry that is used as a mechanism for sorting the display of route records in the application or order the output of routes in the LRT that have the same pub-id. The order of display or output is lowest numerical value to highest.
   Preference drop-down list	Select the numerical entry that is used as a mechanism for sorting the display of route records in the application or order the output of routes that have the same pub-id and order. The order of display or output is lowest numerical value to highest.

   Additional SED Properties menu	Click the arrow icon to expand the following SED property entries that can be mapped to their corresponding CSV file column number: Imported SED formula—Select the numerical entry for the alphanumeric string that contains an expression used to define string concatenation and text replacement to generate the SED for a route record. Next Hop ($NEXTHOP)—Select the numerical entry for the IP address, FQDN, session agent name, or session agent group name that can be used in the formula to generate the SED for a route record. Trunk Group ($TRUNKGROUP)—Select the numerical entry for the alphanumeric string that can be used in the formula to generate the SED for a route record.

Carrier Identification Code ($CIC)—Select the numerical entry for the numeric value used in the formula to generate the SED for a route record. User 1 through User 5 —Select the numerical entry for the alphanumeric value with a user-specific definable meaning that can be used in the formula to generate the SED for a route record. It can also be used for aggregating route records into groups. Once defined, use of this field must be consistent within the route set. SED Formula—The numerical entry for the alphanumeric string that contains an expression used to define string concatenation and text replacement to generate the SED for a route record.
