Zones
A zone is a collection of endpoints, either all 
registered to a single system (for example a 
Cisco VCS, gatekeeper, or Border Controller), or 
located in a certain way such as via an ENUM 
or DNS lookup.
Zones are used to:
• 
control through links whether calls can be 
made between your local subzones and 
these other zones
• 
manage the bandwidth of calls between your 
local subzones and endpoints in other zones
• 
search for aliases that are not registered 
locally
You can configure up to 1000 zones of five 
different types. The VCS also has a non-
configurable Default Zone.
See th
 sections for 
information on the configuration options 
available for all zone types.
See th
 section for information on including zones 
as targets for search rules.
About zones
To traverse a firewall, the VCS must be 
connected with a traversal server (for example 
a VCS Expressway or a TANDBERG Border 
Controller). 
In this situation your local VCS is a traversal 
client, so you create a connection with the 
traversal server by creating a traversal client 
zone on your local VCS. You then configure the 
client zone with details of the corresponding 
zone on the traversal server. (The traversal 
server must also be configured with details of 
the VCS client zone.)
After you have neighbored with the traversal 
server you can:
• 
use the neighbor as a traversal server 
• 
query the traversal server about its 
endpoints
• 
apply transforms to any queries before they 
are sent to the traversal server
• 
control the bandwidth used for calls 
between your local VCS and the traversal 
server
See the 
section for information on the specific 
configuration options available.
A VCS Expressway is able to act as a traversal 
server, providing firewall traversal on behalf of 
traversal clients (for example, VCS Controls or 
gatekeepers).
In order to act as a traversal server, the 
VCS Expressway must have a special type 
of two-way relationship with each traversal 
client. To create this connection, you create 
a traversal server zone on your local VCS 
Expressway and configure it with the details of 
the corresponding zone on the traversal client. 
(The client must also be configured with details 
of the VCS Expressway.)
After you have neighbored with the traversal 
client you can:
• 
provide firewall traversal services to the 
traversal client
• 
query the traversal client about its 
endpoints
• 
apply transforms to any queries before they 
are sent to the traversal client
• 
control the bandwidth used for calls 
between your local VCS and the traversal 
client
See th
 
section for information on the specific 
configuration options available.
Traversal client-server zone relationships must be two-way. For firewall traversal to work, the 
traversal server and the traversal client must each be configured with the other’s details. 
(See the 
 section for more information.) 
The client and server will then be able to communicate over the firewall and query each 
other.
A neighbor zone could be a collection of 
endpoints registered to another system (such 
as a VCS, gatekeeper, or Border Controller), or 
it could be a SIP device (for example Microsoft 
Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007). 
The other system or SIP device is referred to as 
a neighbor. Neighbors can be part of your own 
enterprise network, part of a separate network, 
or even standalone systems. 
You create a neighbor relationship with the 
other system by adding it as a neighbor zone 
on your local VCS. After you have added it, you 
can:
• 
query the neighbor about its endpoints
• 
apply transforms to any requests before 
they are sent to the neighbor
• 
control the bandwidth used for calls 
between your local VCS and the neighbor 
zone
See the 
 section 
for information on the specific configuration 
options available.
Neighbor zone relationship definitions 
are one-way. Adding a system as a 
neighbor to your VCS does not 
automatically make your VCS a 
neighbor of that system.
Inbound calls from any configured 
neighbor are identified as coming from 
that neighbor.
