Links
Subzones are connected to other subzones
and zones via links. For a call to take place,
the endpoints involved must each reside in
subzones or zones that have a link between
them. The link does not need to be direct; the
two endpoints may be linked via one or more
intermediary subzones.
Links are used to calculate how a call is routed
over the network and therefore which zones
and subzones are involved and how much
bandwidth is available. If multiple routes are
possible, your VCS will perform the bandwidth
calculations using the one with the fewest
links.
Creating Links
Name
Enter the name you wish to assign to this link.
Node 1, Node 2
Select the names of the two subzones, or the
subzone and zone between which you wish to
create a link.
Pipe 1, Pipe 2
If you wish to apply bandwidth limitations to
this link, select the pipe(s) to be applied.

Links page.
Default Links
If a subzone has no links configured, then
endpoints within the subzone will only be
able to call other endpoints within the same
subzone. For this reason, when a subzone is
created, it is automatically given certain links.
