Command

 

Purpose

 

 

 

 

Step 1

hostname(config)# object network

name

Configures a network object for the real address of

 

Examples:

 

Cisco UCM that you want to translate.

 

hostname(config)# object network

 

 

 

ucm_real_192.168.10.30

 

 

 

hostname(config)# object network

 

 

 

ucm_real_192.168.10.31

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2

hostname(config-network-object)#

host ip_address

Specifies the real IP address of the Cisco UCM host

 

Examples:

 

for the network object.

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

host 192.168.10.30

 

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

host 192.168.10.31

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3

(Optional)

 

Provides a description of the network object.

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

description string

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

description “Cisco

 

 

UCM Real Address”

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4

hostname(config-network-object)#

exit

Exits from the objects configuration mode.

 

 

 

 

Step 5

hostname(config)# object network

name

Configures a network object for the mapped address

 

Example:

 

of the Cisco UCM.

 

hostname(config)# object network

 

 

 

ucm_map_209.165.200.228

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 6

hostname(config-network-object)#

host ip_address

Specifies the mapped IP address of the Cisco UCM

 

Example:

 

host for the network object.

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

host

 

 

209.165.200.228

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 7

(Optional)

 

Provides a description of the network object.

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

description string

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

hostname(config-network-object)#

description “Cisco

 

 

UCM Mapped Address”
