External SIP Peer

Device Management

 

 

Table 5-14Add External SIP Peer dialog box

Field

Description

 

 

Type

For a Microsoft Office Communications Server or Lync

 

Server 2010, select Microsoft. Otherwise, select Other.

 

Selecting Microsoft implicitly adds the Destination

 

network value to the Domain List (if not already there)

 

and automatically selects the Postliminary settings that

 

are correct for most deployments with Lync Server

 

2010, but you can modify them if necessary.

 

 

Transport type

The transport protocol to use when contacting this SIP

 

peer. The default is UDP.

 

Auto detect tells the system to select the protocol using

 

DNS as specified in RFC 3263, and is not valid if Next

 

hop address is a numeric IP address instead of a

 

host/domain name.

 

 

Downgrade

If selected, and if this peer doesn’t support TLS, the

 

system can change the Request-URI schema from sips

 

to sip and route the call to this peer.

 

If not selected, the system routes a TLS call to this peer

 

only if this peer supports TLS.

 

 

Register externally

Some external SIP peers require peers to register with

 

them as an endpoint does, using a REGISTER

 

message (also referred to as pilot registration).

 

Select this option to enable the External Registration

 

tab and configure the system to register with this

 

external SIP peer, following the rules specified in

 

RFC 3261.

 

 

Domain List

If your dial plan uses a rule to apply the Resolve to

 

external SIP peer action, you can restrict calls to this

 

SIP peer to specific domains by adding the authorized

 

domains to this list.

 

If this list is empty, all domains can resolve to this peer.

 

Note: In some circumstances (depending on network

 

topology and configuration), dialing loops can develop if

 

you don't restrict SIP peers to specific domains.

 

 

Add new domain

Enter a domain and click Add to add it to the list of

 

authorized domains.

 

 

Authorized domains

List of administrative domains, contained in the dial

 

string, for which calls are routed to this SIP peer.

 

Leave this list empty to route any call that matches the

 

rule to this SIP peer.

 

Select a domain and click Remove to remove it from

 

the list.
