Add Outbound Registration Dialog Box Some external SIP peers require peers to register with them as an endpoint
does, using a REGISTER message (also known as pilot registration). The Add
Outbound Registration dialog box lets you add outbound registration
configurations that the system can use to register with the SIP peer that you’re
adding or editing, following the rules specified in RFC 3261.
The following table describes the fields in the Add Outbound Registration
dialog box.
Table 5-21 Add Outbound Registration dialog box
Field Description
Enabled Clearing this check box lets you stop using this
registration without deleting the registration information.
Address of record The AOR with which the system registers (see
registration rules in RFC 3261), such as:
sip:1000@dma.polycom.com
Territory to perform
registration
Responsibility for registering must be assigned to a
territory, thus making the primary or backup DMA
cluster for the territory responsible, depending on which
is active.
Contact address format Select IP or DNS to specify that the contact header
should use the virtual IP address or virtual DNS name of
the cluster currently managing the territory. If the
territory responsibility switches to the other cluster, it
re-sends the registration using its IP address or DNS
name.
Select Free Form to specify that the contact header
should use the FQDN you enter. The external peer must
be able to resolve this FQDN.
User name The user name to use for the authentication credentials
if the external peer challenges the registration request.
Note: The authentication credentials specified here are
specific to this SIP peer and are not tied to any other
authentication configuration values.
