Links may be configured through the web interface on the Border Controller Configuration → Links page, or through the command line using the following commands:
xConfiguration Links Link [1..100] Name
xConfiguration Links Link [1..100] Node1 Name
xConfiguration Links Link [1..100] Node2 Name
xConfiguration Links Link [1..100] Pipe1 Name
xConfiguration Links Link [1..100] Pipe2 Name
Each subzone may be configured with its own bandwidth limits. Calls placed between two endpoints in the same subzone consume resource from the subzone’s allocation. Subzone bandwidths are configured on the Border Controller Configuration → SubZones page (see Figure
6 for a screenshot of the configuration) or using the following command line commands:
xConfiguration SubZones SubZone [1..100] Bandwidth Total Mode xConfiguration SubZones SubZone [1..100] Bandwidth Total Limit xConfiguration SubZones SubZone [1..100] Bandwidth PerCall Mode xConfiguration SubZones SubZone [1..100] Bandwidth PerCall Limit
When calls are placed between endpoints in different subzones, it is possible to control the bandwidth used on the link between them. To do this, create a pipe and configure it with the required bandwidth characteristics. This pipe is then assigned to a link. Calls traversing the link will now take the pipe’s bandwidth allocation into consideration. Pipes are created and configured on the Border Controller Configuration → Pipes page (Figure 6) or using the following command line commands:
