IP network regions

Last Updated : Jul 13, 2023 |

Use network regions to group IP endpoints and VoIP and signaling resources that share the same characteristics. Signaling resources includes Avaya Aura® Media Server and PROCR. In this context, IP endpoint refers to IP stations, IP trunks, and G430 and G450 branch gateways. These IP endpoints and resources have the following characteristics:

  • Audio Parameters

    • Codec Set

    • UDP port Range

    • Direct IP-IP connections

    • Hairpinning

  • H.323 security profile

    • TLS service

      • Signaling channel encryption

    • TTS service

      • Registration and reregistration process

    Important:

    Communication Manager uses TLS to encrypt the signaling channel between Communication Manager and 96x1 H.323 phones. It also uses TTS for fast registration and reregistration process.

  • Quality of Service Parameters:

    • Diffserv settings

      • Call Control per-hop behavior (PHB)

      • VoIP Media PHB

    • 802.1p/Q settings

      • Call Control 802.1p priority

      • VoIP Media 802.1p priority

      • VLAN ID

    • Better than Best Effort (BBE) PHB

    • RTCP settings

    • RSVP settings

    • Location

  • WAN bandwidth limitations

    • Call Admission control - Bandwidth Limitation (CAC-BL)

    • Inter-Gateway Alternate Routing (IGAR)
