Finding a Cisco VCS with which to register
Before an endpoint can register with a VCS, it must determine which VCS it can or should be
registering with. This setting is configured on the endpoint, and the process is different for SIP and

registering with. This setting is configured on the endpoint, and the process is different for SIP and
H.323.
SIP
SIP endpoints must find a SIP Registrar with which to register. The SIP registrar maintains a record
of the endpoint’s details against the endpoint’s Address of Record (AOR). When a call is received for
that AOR, the SIP registrar refers to the record in order to find the endpoint to which it corresponds.
(Note that the same AOR can be used by more than one SIP endpoint at the same time.)
The SIP registrar will only accept registrations for domains for which it is authoritative.
There are two ways a SIP endpoint can locate a registrar with which to register: manually or
automatically. The option is configured on the endpoint itself under the SIP Server Discovery option
(consult your endpoint user guide for how to access this setting; it may also be referred to as Proxy
Discovery).

If the Server Discovery mode is set to automatic, the endpoint will send a REGISTER message to
its SIP Server. This will be forwarded (via DNS if necessary) to the registrar that is authoritative
for the domain with which the endpoint is attempting to register. For example, if an endpoint is
attempting to register with a URI of john.smith@example.com, the request will be sent to the
registrar authoritative for the domain example.com.

The VCS is a SIP Server for endpoints in its local zone, and can also act as a SIP registrar.

If the VCS is acting as the endpoint’s SIP server but is not a SIP registrar, it will proxy the
registration request. See the

H.323
There are two ways an H.323 endpoint can locate a VCS with which to register: manually or
automatically. The option is configured on the endpoint itself under the Gatekeeper Discovery
setting (consult your endpoint manual for how to access this setting).
automatically. The option is configured on the endpoint itself under the Gatekeeper Discovery
setting (consult your endpoint manual for how to access this setting).
•
If the mode is set to automatic, the endpoint will try to register with any VCS it can find. It does
this by sending out a Gatekeeper Discovery Request, to which eligible VCSs will respond.

Preventing automatic registrations
You can prevent H.323 endpoints being able to register automatically with the VCS by disabling Auto
Discovery on the VCS. This setting is accessed using:

The Auto Discovery setting determines whether the VCS responds to the Gatekeeper Discovery
requests sent out by endpoints.
The options are as follows:
On: the VCS will respond to Gatekeeper discovery requests.
Off: the VCS will reject Gatekeeper discovery requests. H.323 endpoints will be able to register with
the VCS only if their Gatekeeper Discovery setting is Manual and they have entered the IP address
of the VCS.
