Subzones are connected to other subzones and zones via links. For a call to take place, the endpoints involved must each reside in subzones or zones that have a link between them. The link does not need to be direct; the two endpoints may be linked via one or more intermediary subzones.
Links are used to calculate how a call is routed over the network and therefore which zones and subzones are involved and how much bandwidth is available. If multiple routes are possible, your VCS will perform the bandwidth calculations using the one with the fewest links.
Creating a New Link
To create a new link:
•VCS Configuration > Bandwidth > Links. You will be taken to the Links page. Click New.
You will be taken to the Create Link page.
•xCommand LinkAdd
Default Links
If a subzone has no links configured, then endpoints within the subzone will only be able to call other endpoints within the same subzone. For this reason, when a subzone is created, it is automatically given certain links. See Default Links for more information.
