Workflows

create-dns-zone-routing
Create a DNS zone plus a search rule and confirm via zone status.
Creates a DNS zone for SIP and H.323 discovery, creates a search rule that targets it, and reads zone status to confirm the zone is present.
3 steps inputs: aliasPatternString, host, password, ruleName, username, zoneName outputs: ruleName, zoneName, zoneStatus
1
createDnsZone
Create a DNS zone that locates endpoints through DNS lookups for SIP and H.323 calls.
2
createRoutingRule
Create a search rule that forwards matching aliases to the new DNS zone.
3
confirmZoneStatus
Read zone connectivity status and confirm the new DNS zone is present in the returned array.

  summary: Create a DNS zone for endpoint discovery and a search rule that routes to it.
  description: >-
    Enables DNS-based endpoint discovery by creating a DNS zone, creating a
    search rule that forwards matching aliases to that zone, and then reading
    zone connectivity status to confirm the new zone is being tracked. Every step
    spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without
