Step 1:  
Navigate to 
VCS configuration > Bandwidth > Links
, select the 
check boxes next to the automatically created subzone links, and then click 
Delete.
Step 2:  
On the Confirm page, click 
Yes
.
Now that the subzone default links are gone, you can create the new links 
and assign pipes to them.
Step 3:  
On the Links page, click 
New
.
Step 4:  
On the Create link page, enter the following values, and then click 
Create Link
:
•  Name—
LK_HQ-R1
•  Node 1—the subzone 
SZ_HQ
•  Node 2—the subzone 
SZ_Remote_1
•  Pipe 1—
PP_HQ
•  Pipe 2—
PP_R1
Step 5:  
Create the rest of the subzone links that your organization needs by 
repeating Step 3 and Step 4 above, using the appropriate pipes created in 
Procedure 1
Next, you create a final link between the HQ site and the traversal subzone. 
This allows reservationless calls to be completed to the MCU by using the 
H.323 prefix. You do not need to configure pipes on this link because the 
bandwidth is already being calculated on the links between the sites.

Configuring Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Control Unit
Process
The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) is used for res-
ervationless and scheduled conferences between the video endpoints. 
Cisco has several MCUs with different capacities. Depending on how many 
endpoints you need in concurrent calls, you can choose the MCU that 
scales to your needs.
