If, for instance, an administrator decides to deploy a new gateway, after the gateway is set up and configured, the gateway can be added to the Routing tables. In this example, a new gateway is deployed in New York and is configured to be the gateway of choice for local New York numbers and also is used as part of the Universal Route.
