A route group is made up of which components?

The correct answer is C. a set of gateways and trunks with identical digit-manipulation requirements. In Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), a route group is a collection of gateways or trunks that share identical digit-manipulation requirements - meaning calls routed through any device in the group will have the same transformations applied (e.g., stripping digits…

Explanation

In Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), a route group is a collection of gateways or trunks that share identical digit-manipulation requirements - meaning calls routed through any device in the group will have the same transformations applied (e.g., stripping digits, adding prefixes). This makes C correct: the grouping is precisely based on uniform digit-manipulation needs.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A is wrong because route groups contain gateways/trunks, not "route lists" - a route list is actually the higher-level construct that contains route groups, not the other way around.
  • B describes a route pattern concept (reachability/addressing), not the composition of a route group.
  • D is the trap answer - it flips the key word. Route groups require identical (same) digit manipulation, not different manipulation; devices needing different treatment belong in separate route groups.

Memory tip: Think of a route group as a "same treatment club" - every gateway or trunk in the group gets calls handled the same way. If digit manipulation differs, the device goes in a different group. The hierarchy to remember is: Route Pattern → Route List → Route Group → Gateway/Trunk.
