location route by station-can it be done

[td1019]

I have 8800 5.2.1 with 3 locations

in one location I have three out of the 20 phones that need to use my default location routing. I was thinking about creating a new region and a network map that only includes those phones IP address but what if the IP's change on the phones? I dont have control over the DHCP server so i cant get a reservation done. Is there any other way to do this routing for just these three stations?

If you are running dhcp and would like to statically assign phones you would need to change the dhcp range of addresses or get a reservation from dhcp. On the ip-network-map screen you can assign a range of ips or you can set a subnet or a single ip. The endpoint has to be in that range, subnet or list that you create. If it changes then it will take on the network-region of its gatekeeper. So if it does not exist in the network map list then you would need to look at your clan and/or procr to see what NR it is assigned to in order to find out which NR a phone will register to that is not in ip-netowrk-maps. You can also run a lis reg ext xxxx where xxxx is the extension after a phone registers to see its current NR and it's gatekeeper.

Use ARS partitions - this enables you to determine the outbound route pattern based on station COR.

Thanks latitude I was thinking about going this route since I dont have control over the DHCP server for reserving IP's to the stations.

Have you set any ars partitions up? Are they pretty straight forward.

Yeah, once you get a handle on where everything has to be configured:

partitioned-group screen - to associate partition groups to CORs
partition-route-table - to assign route patterns to different partition groups
ARS analysis - use pX in the route pattern field (where X is the route index you want to use from the partition route table)
