Network Bandwidth Management does not support zone 0. If zone 0 is
configured as a Branch Office zone, the Network Bandwidth Management
feature will not be activated.
LD 117 Define zone properties at the Branch Office.
Command
Description
NEW ZONE <xxx> [<intraZoneBandwidth> <intraZoneStrategy> <interZoneBandwidth>
<interZoneStrategy> <zoneResourceType>]
Create a new zone with the following parameters:
xxx = 0-255 zone number
intraZoneBandwidth = Intrazone available bandwidth (see Note) 0-1 000
000 Kbps
intraZoneStrategy = Intrazone preferred strategy (BQ for Best Quality
or BB for Best Bandwidth)
interZoneBandwidth = Interzone available bandwidth (see Note) 0-1 000
000 Kbps
interZoneStrategy = Interzone preferred strategy (BQ for Best Quality
or BB for Best Bandwidth)
zoneResourceType = zone resource type (shared or private), where
shared = Current default zone type. The IP Phones configured in
shared zones use DSP resources configured in shared zones. If all of
the shared zones’ gateway channels are used, the caller receives an
overflow tone and the call is blocked. The order of channel selection
for the gateway channels is:
1. channel from same zone as IP Phone is configured
2. any available channel from the shared zones’ channels
private = New zone type introduced by IPL 3.0. DSP channels
configured in a private zone are only used by IP Phones which have
also been configured for that private zone. If more DSP resources
are required by these IP Phones than what are available in the zone,
DSPs from other zones are used. However, IP Phones configured in
shared zones cannot use the private zones’ channels. The order of
selection for the gateway channels is:
1. channel from same private zone as IP Phone is configured
2. any available channel from the pool of shared zones’ channels
If the Network Bandwidth Management feature is going to be used, parameters intraZoneBandwidth
and interZoneBandwidth must be set to the maximum configurable value. See "Bandwidth
Management" (page 55).
