Adding and Configuring DNS Zones
In order for locally registered endpoints to use URI dialing
through the VCS, you must configure at least one DNS zone. To
do this:
VCS Configuration > Zones
•
.
You will be taken to the
Zones
page.
Click
New
.
You will be taken to the
Create Zone
page.
Enter a
Name
for the zone and select a
Type
of
DNS
.
Click
Create Zone
.
You will be taken to the
Edit Zone
page.
xConfiguration Zones Zone [1..200
Name
Assigns a name to this zone.
Type
For DNS zones, this will be
DNS
.
Hop count
Specifies the hop count to be used when sending an alias
search request to this zone. If the search request was received
from another zone and already has a hop count assigned, the
lower of the two values will be used.
When dialing by URI, the hop count used is that
configured for the DNS zone that matches the URI
address.
If there is no DNS zone configured that matches the URI
address, then the query may be forwarded to a neighbor. In this
case, the hop count used will be that configured for the neighbor
zone.
H.323 mode
Determines whether or not H.323 calls will be
allowed to this zone.
SIP mode
Determines whether or not SIP calls will be
allowed to this zone.
Normal zone pattern
matching and
prioritization rules will
apply to DNS zones.
Match1 - Match5
These sections allow you to specify any filtering criteria you wish to apply to this zone.
See
Configuring Matches for DNS zones
for full information on how the
Match
options can be used.
Advanced
In most cases the options in the Advanced
section should be left at their default values.
However, some systems such as Microsoft
OCS 2007 may require these options to be
changed from the default.
Refer to the relevant TANDBERG VCS
Deployment Guide for full details on how to
configure these advanced options for specific
systems.
