Configure Locations

This procedure adds locations.

Locations are used to implement call admission control in a centralized call-processing system. Call admission control enables you to regulate audio quality and video availability by limiting the amount of bandwidth that is available for audio and video calls over links between the locations.

Important

Locations are different to sites. Locations are used by Cisco Unified CM to manage call admission control. Sites are used by VOSS-4-UC to logically group resources.

Perform these steps:

  1. Log in as provider, reseller, or customer administrator.
  2. Set the hierarchy path to a customer or site level.
  3. If prompted, select the NDL that contains the Cisco Unified CM on which you are configuring the location.
  4. Navigate to Locations:
    • If you’re logged in a provider or reseller administrator, choose Device Management > CUCM > Locations.
    • If you’re logged in as customer administrator, choose Device Management > Advanced > Locations.
  5. Click Add.
