Modify Site Defaults¶

This procedure displays and updates site defaults.

Note

Site defaults provide the default values for several of the tasks performed during onboarding. When creating a site, a site defaults instance is created on the site, having the same name as the new site, and pre-populated with several default values.

For Provider deployments, when creating a Cisco HCS site dial plan, the site defaults on the site are updated with dial-plan-related attributes that are affected by the deployed site dial plan. Any related existing values are overwritten. When the site dial plan is removed, these values are reset (set to empty) in the site defaults.

The Site Defaults Doc (SDD) is useful for managing multi-site, multi-country customers. A SDD allows a Provider administrator (or higher) to define geo-specific information at a site level, allowing multinational sites to stay in sync.

Geo-specific information includes CUCM user-locale and network-locale defaults, as well as the CUC time zone and language defaults.

Perform these steps:

Log in to VOSS Automate (to the Admin Portal or to the Business Admin Portal), as provider, reseller, or customer administrator.
Open the site defaults editing screen:
- In the Business Admin Portal, go to Site Management > Site Defaults; then, select the relevant site to open the Site Defaults[name] screen.
- In the Admin Portal, go to Site Management > Defaults to open the Defaults screen; then, select the relevant site to open the Defaults[name] screen.
Click through the following tabs to modify default values, as required in accordance with your devices and vendors:
- General Defaults
- Device Defaults
- Line Defaults
- User Defaults
- CUC Defaults
- HotDial Defaults
- Overbuild Defaults
- MS Teams
Save your changes.
Note
- Field descriptions for the tabs on this screen are documented below.
- Note that the SDD also contains ten custom string fields and ten custom boolean fields, which are, by default, untitled and hidden:
  - custom_string_1 to custom_string_10
  - custom_boolean_1 to custom_boolean_10
  To enable and use these fields, higher-level administrators can modify the field display policy for the SDD (at a specific hierarchy). Once the fields are available, designers can reference the fields in custom configuration templates and workflows.
