Configuring a Dialing Prefix for Each Gateway

To configure a dialing prefix for each gateway, use the following commands beginning in global
configuration mode:

Command

Purpose

Step 1

Router(config)# gatekeeper

Enters gatekeeper configuration mode.

Step 2

Router(config-gk)# zone local

gatekeeper-name domain-name

[ras-IP-address]

Specifies a zone controlled by a gatekeeper.

The arguments are as follows:

gatekeeper-name—Specifies the gatekeeper name or zone name. This is
usually the fully domain-qualified host name of the gatekeeper. For
example, if the domain-name is cisco.com, the gatekeeper-name might be
gk1.cisco.com. However, if the gatekeeper is controlling multiple zones,
the gatekeeper-name for each zone should be some unique string that has
a mnemonic value.

domain-name—Specifies the domain name served by this gatekeeper.

ras-IP-address—(Optional) The IP address of one of the interfaces on the
gatekeeper. When the gatekeeper responds to gatekeeper discovery
messages, it signals the endpoint or gateway to use this address in future
communications.

Note

Setting this address for one local zone makes it the address used for all
local zones.
