Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Overview About your Video Communications Network The most basic implementation of a TANDBERG video communications network is a single VCS connected to the internet with one or more endpoints registered to it.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Local Zone and Subzones About the Local Zone and its Subzones Configuring the Local Zone and its Subzones The collection of all endpoints, gateways, MCUs and Content Servers registered with the VCS make up its Local Zone. The Local Zone and its subzones exist for the purposes of bandwidth management.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Zones About Zones Traversal Client Zone Traversal Server Zone A zone is a collection of endpoints, either all registered to a single system (e.g. VCS, gatekeeper or Border Controller), or of a certain type such as ENUM or DNS.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Adding Zones Configuring Zones In order to neighbor with another system (e.g. VCS, gatekeeper or Border Controller) or create an ENUM or DNS zone, you must add a new zone on the local VCS. When adding a new zone you will be asked to specify its Type; this will determine which configuration options will then be available. Once you have created a new zone on the local VCS you must configure it appropriately.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Configuring Zones - All Types Name Assigns a name to the zone. The name acts as a unique identifier, allowing you to distinguish between zones of the same type. Type Determines the nature of the specified zone in relation to the Local Zone. Neighbor: the new zone will be a neighbor of the Local Zone.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Configuring Neighbor Zones H.323 mode Determines whether H.323 calls will be allowed to and from the neighbor zone. H.323 port Specifies the port on the neighbor system to be used for H.323 calls to and from the local VCS. This must be the same port number as that configured on the neighbor system as its H.323 UDP port. SIP mode Determines whether SIP calls will be allowed to and from the neighbor zone.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Configuring Traversal Client Zones Retry interval SIP mode Specifies the interval in seconds with which a failed attempt to establish a connection to the traversal server should be retried. Determines whether SIP calls will be allowed to and from this zone. H.323 mode SIP port Determines whether H.323 calls will be allowed to and from the traversal server.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Configuring Traversal Server Zones There must be an entry in the local VCS’s Authentication database for this username. See Authentication for more information. SIP mode Authentication username Determines whether SIP calls will be allowed to and from this zone. If the traversal client is a VCS, this is its Authentication Username. If the traversal client is a gatekeeper, this is its System Name.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Configuring ENUM Zones DNS suffix Specifies the domain to be appended to the transformed E.164 number to create an ENUM domain for which this zone is queried. H.323 mode Determines whether H.323 records will be looked up for this zone. SIP mode Determines whether SIP records will be looked up for this zone. Full details of how to use and configure ENUM zones is given in ENUM Dialing..
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE About Alternates Configuring Alternates The purpose of an Alternate is to provide extra reliability. Each VCS can be part of a pool of up to 6 Alternate VCSs that act as backups to each other in case one becomes unavailable (for example, due to a network or power outage). All the Alternates in a pool are configured similarly and share responsibility for their endpoint community.
Managing Zones, Neighbors and Alternates TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Setting up a Dial Plan About Dial Plans Structured Dial Plan Hierarchical Dial Plan As you start deploying more than one VCS, it is useful to neighbor the systems together so that they can query each other about their registered endpoints. Before you start, you should consider how you will structure your dial plan.
Text Processing Call goes here TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Locating a Destination Endpoint Overview One of the functions of the VCS is to route calls to their appropriate destination, based on the address or alias received by a locally registered endpoint or neighbor zone. There are a number of steps involved in determining the destination of a call, and some of these steps can involve transforming the alias or redirecting the call to other aliases.
Text Processing Call goes here TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Dialing by Address Types About the Different Address Types Dialing by IP Address Dialing by H.323 ID or E.164 alias The destination address that is entered via the caller’s endpoint can take a number of different formats, and this will affect the specific process that the VCS follows when attempting to locate the destination endpoint.
Text Processing Call goes here TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Hop Counts About Hop Counts Configuring Hop Counts Each search request is assigned a hop count value by the system that initiates the search. Every time the request is forwarded to another neighbor gatekeeper or proxy, the hop count value is decreased by a value of 1. When the hop count reaches 0, it will not be forwarded on any further.
Administrator Policy TANDBERG VIDEO COMMUNICATION SERVER ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE Overview About Administrator Policy Administrator Policy and Authentication The VCS allows you to set up a set of rules to control which calls are allowed, which are rejected, and which are to be redirected to a different destination. These rules are known as Administrator Policy. Administrator Policy uses the source and destination of a call to determine the action to be taken.
