Why each option
This question asks for the critical call routing practice to prevent unnecessary PSTN toll charges for internal +E.164 calls in Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
Forced on-net routing is critical to ensure that calls between internal extensions, even when dialed with full +E.164 numbers, are preferentially routed within the enterprise's private network. This prevents them from being unintentionally sent to the PSTN, thereby avoiding unnecessary toll charges.
Automated alternate routing (AAR) is used to reroute calls over the PSTN if insufficient bandwidth is available on the IP network, which could lead to PSTN usage.
Forced authorization codes are used to restrict access to certain calling privileges or features, not to prevent internal calls from routing externally.
Client matter codes (CMCs) are used for billing or cost allocation purposes, not for preventing external routing.
Tail-end hop-off (TEHO) routes long-distance calls via the corporate network to a gateway close to the destination, using local PSTN at the destination, which could incur PSTN charges.
