Collective routing is routing in which a switching center automatically delivers messages to a specified list of destinations.
Collective routing avoids the need to list each single address in the message heading.
Major relay stations usually transmit messages bearing collective-routing indicators to tributary, minor, and other major relay stations.
Famous quotes containing the word collective:
“Yet the companions of the Muses
will keep their collective nose in my books
And weary with historical data, they will turn to my dance tune.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
