Manually interconnecting the network regions

Last Updated : Dec 12, 2023 |

You can enable IGAR using the Enable Inter-Gateway Alternate Routing field on the Feature-Related System Parameters screen.

If PROCR, G4xx Media Gateway, and Avaya Aura® Media Server resources are shared among administered network regions, on the Inter-Network Region Connection Management screen, define the following:

  • Which regions communicate with which other regions.

  • Which codec set is used for inter-region communication.

Note:

Specify the codec set on the Inter-Network Region Connection Management screen before connecting IP endpoints in different network regions or communicating among network regions.

For the Call Admission Control - Bandwidth Limitation feature, you can also specify:

  • Whether regions are directly connected or indirectly connected through intermediate regions.

  • Bandwidth limits for IP bearer traffic between two regions by using a maximum bit rate or number of calls.

    When a bandwidth limit is reached, more IP calls between those regions are diverted to other channels or blocked.

    When the codec set administered across a WAN link contains a single codec, the bandwidth limit is specified as the number of calls. When the codec set administered across a WAN link contains multiple codecs, the bandwidth limit is usually specified as a bit-rate. For regions connected across a LAN, the normal bandwidth limit setting is no limit.
