URI Dialing

URI Dialing for Outgoing Calls

When dialing by URI, the hop count
used is that configured for the DNS
zone that matches the URI address.

If there is no DNS zone configured that
matches the URI address, then the query may
be forwarded to a neighbor. In this case, the
hop count used will be that configured for the
neighbor zone.

Adding and Configuring DNS Zones

use URI dialing through the VCS, you must
configure at least one DNS zone. To do this:
