URI Dialing for Outgoing Calls
Adding and Configuring DNS Zones
In order for locally registered endpoints to use URI dialing through the VCS, you must configure at least one DNS zone. To do this:
•VCS Configuration > Zones.
You will be taken to the Zones page. Click New.
You will be taken to the Create Zone page.
Enter a Name for the zone and select a Type of DNS.
Click Create Zone.
You will be taken to the Edit Zone page.
•xCommand ZoneAdd
•xConfiguration Zones Zone [1..200]
Normal zone pattern matching and prioritization rules will apply to DNS zones.
When dialing by URI, the hop count
used is that configured for the DNS
zone that matches the URI address.
If there is no DNS zone configured that matches the URI address, then the query may be forwarded to a neighbor. In this case, the hop count used will be that configured for the neighbor zone.
