Abstract
A method in one example has: implementing an incoming voice call routing preference in a telecommunication system, routing bias settings for incoming packet calls and incoming circuit calls being set for any candidate trunk group lists as per desired call routing preferences; and selecting one of packet routing and a non-packet routing for call routing, the candidate trunk group lists for individual routing destinations being updated to indicate if packet voice technology is to be used for call delivery, wherein if packet voice technology is preferred, then a packet core access trunk group is added to a front of a respective trunk group list, and wherein if packet voice technology is to be used only if no circuit trunks are available, then packet core access trunk groups are added at an end of the list.
