SIP line region concepts

A region defines areas where SIP stations and lines are physically interconnected. Within a region, a specific dial plan may be required depending on the central office or switching mechanism to which it is connected. CIC uses locations to define the bandwidth requirements and endpoints (stations and lines) for a region.

A location represents the area where devices are considered to be in the same physical place. This location defines a set of endpoints that can share a common dial plan. The stations and lines that are members of a location are utilized by the dial plan entries that apply to the locale in which they are operating. The location also defines the codec communications and the ability to communicate between devices and locations.
