Workflows

onboard-neighbor-zone-routing
Create a neighbor zone then a search rule that targets it, and confirm.
Creates a neighbor zone to a peer system, creates a search rule that forwards matching aliases to that zone, and lists search rules to confirm the new rule is present.
3 steps inputs: aliasPatternString, aliasPatternType, host, password, peerAddress, priority, ruleName, username, zoneName outputs: ruleName, searchRules, zoneName
1
createNeighborZone
Create a neighbor zone that connects the local Expressway to the specified peer system address.
2
createRouteRule
Create a search rule that forwards aliases matching the supplied pattern to the neighbor zone created in the previous step.
3
confirmSearchRules
List all search rules and confirm the new routing rule is present in the returned array.

  title: Cisco Expressway Onboard Neighbor Zone Routing
  summary: Create a neighbor zone and a search rule that routes matching calls to it.
  description: >-
    Connects the Expressway to a peer system (such as a Unified CM cluster or
    another Expressway) by creating a neighbor zone, then creating a search rule
    whose target zone is that neighbor so matching aliases are routed to the new
    peer, and finally listing all search rules to confirm the rule is in place.
    Every step spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed
    without opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
