Authentication
About External Registration
Credentials
The VCS may be required to authenticate itself with another system. For example, when the VCS is forwarding an invite from an endpoint to another VCS, that other system may have authentication enabled and will therefore require your local VCS to provide it with a username and password.
Additionally, traversal clients must always successfully authenticate with traversal servers before they can connect.
The username and password that your VCS provides when authenticating with other systems is configured under the External Registration Credentials section of the Authentication Configuration page.
Configuring External Registration Credentials
To configure Authentication options:
•VCS Configuration > Authentication > Configuration
You will be taken to the Authentication Configuration page (shown below).
•xConfiguration Authentication
Authentication username
The Authentication Username is the name that the VCS uses when authenticating with other systems.
Authentication password
Specifies the password to be used by the VCS (in conjunction with the Authentication username) when the VCS is authenticating with other systems.
