Configuring Zone Searches and Transforms
To configure when a zone will be searched and any transforms that will be applied before the search request is sent:
Local Zone
•VCS Configuration > Local Zone > Matches.
You will be taken to the Local Zone Matches page.
•xConfiguration Zones LocalZone Match [1..5]
External Zones
•VCS Configuration > Zones.
You will be taken to the Zones page.
Click on the zone you wish to configure (or New to create and configure a new zone). You will be taken to the Edit Zone page.
Scroll down until you get to the Match1 section.
•xConfiguration Zones Zone [1..200] Match [1..5]
Default Settings
By default the Local Zone and all other configured zones have a Match 1 configured with a Mode of AlwaysMatch. All remaining matches will be set to Disabled. This means that (unless you make any changes) the zone will be queried for the original alias, with no transforms applied.
The difference between the default settings for each type of zone is the Priority assigned to Match 1. The default priorities are:
•Local Zone: 50
•Neighbor, Traversal Client or Traversal Server zone: 100
•ENUM or DNS zone: 150
This default configuration means that the Local Zone will be searched first for all aliases. If not found locally, all Neighbor, Traversal Client and Traversal Server zones will then be searched, and if they cannot locate the alias the request will be sent to any DNS and ENUM zones.
You can change the default Match 1 Mode and Priority and add additional Matches for all zones, including the Local Zone.
Replace string
(Applies only if the Mode is PatternMatch and Pattern Behavior is Replace.)
Specifies the string to be used as a substitution for the part of the alias that matched the pattern.
Pattern behavior
(Applies only if the Mode is PatternMatch.)
Determines if and how the matched part of the alias will be modified. Options are:
Leave: the alias will not be modified.
Strip: the matching prefix or suffix will be removed from the alias.
Replace: the matching part of the alias will be substituted with the text in the Replace String.
Mode
Determines if and when a query will be sent to this zone. Options are:
AlwaysMatch: the zone will always be queried.
PatternMatch: the zone will only be queried if the alias queried for matches the specified Pattern String.
Disabled: this match is not used. If all 5 matches for a zone are disabled, the zone will never be queried.
Priority
Determines the order in which the zone will be sent a search request. Zones with priority 1 matches are searched first, followed by priority 2, and so on. More than one match can be assigned the same priority; in this case the matching zones will be queried simultaneously.
Pattern string
(Applies only if the Mode is PatternMatch.)
Specifies the pattern against which the alias is compared.
Pattern type
(Applies only if the Mode is PatternMatch.)
Determines the way in which the string must match the alias. Options are:
Exact: the string must match the alias character for character.
Prefix: the string must appear at the beginning of the alias.
Suffix: the string must appear at the end of the alias.
Regex: the string will be treated as a regular expression.
