Configure Regions
-----------------

This procedure adds, edits, and deletes a region. 

.. note:: 
   
   * Regions can only be added at a Customer or Site hierarchy level. 
   * Regions added directly on Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) are synced in at the 
     hierarchy level the CUCM is configured at in VOSS Automate.
   * Regions can be modified or deleted at any hierarchy level. When deleting a region, 
     related regions can't be removed from a region. They exist until either region is deleted.




**Perform these steps**:

1. Log in as Provider, Reseller or Customer administrator.
2. Go to (default menus) **Apps Management > CUCM > Regions**.
3. Choose the hierarchy (Customer or Site).
4. Choose an option:

   * To delete a region, click on the name of the relevant region, then click **Delete**. Click 
     **Yes** to confirm.
   * To edit an existing region, click on the name of the relevant region. Go to step 5.
   * To add a new region, click **Add**. Go to step 5.
     
5. At **CUCM** drop-down menu, choose or modify the CUCM (network device) for the region. 

6. At the **Name** field, for a new region, enter a unique name for the region, or to edit the region, update 
   the name, if required.    

   .. note:: 

      If region is for a CUCM group, use **AR_ RSMSimPhone** as the region name.
