Note: 
  The parameter is mandatory. 
  For the parameter to take effect, a device reset is required. 
General 
Index 
[IPGroup_Index] 
Defines an index for the new table row. 
Note: Each row must be configured with a unique index. 
Name 
name 
[IPGroup_Name] 
Defines a descriptive name, which is used when associating the row in 
other tables. 
The valid value is a string of up to 40 characters.  
Note: Each row must be configured with a unique name. 
Topology Location 
topology-location 
[IPGroup_TopologyLocatio
n] 
Defines the display location of the IP Group in the Topology view of the 
Web interface. 
  [0] Down = (Default) The IP Group element is displayed on the lower 
border of the view. 
  [1] Up = The IP Group element is displayed on the upper border of 
the view. 
For more information on the Topology view, see 'Building and Viewing 
SIP Entities in Topology View' on page 388. 
Type 
type  
[IPGroup_Type] 
Defines the type of IP Group: 
  [0] Server = Applicable when the destination address of the IP Group 
(e.g., ITSP, Proxy, IP-PBX, or Application server) is known. The 
address is configured by the Proxy Set that is associated with the IP 
Group. 
  [1] User = Represents a group of users such as IP phones and 
softphones where their location is dynamically obtained by the device 
when REGISTER requests and responses traverse (or are 
terminated) by the device. These users are considered remote (far-
end). 
Typically, this IP Group is configured with a Serving IP Group that 
represents an IP-PBX, Application or Proxy server that serves this 
User-
type IP Group. Each SIP request sent by a user of this IP Group 
is proxied to the Serving IP Group. For registrations, the device 
updates its registration database with the AOR and contacts of the 
users.  
Digest authentication using SIP 401/407 responses (if needed) is 
performed by the Serving IP Group. The device forwards these 
responses directly to the SIP users.  
To route a call to a registered user, a rule must be configured in the 
Tel-to-IP Routing table or SBC IP-to-IP Routing table. The device 
searches the dynamic database (by using the Request-URI) for an 
entry that matches a registered AOR or Contact. Once an entry is 
found, the IP destination is obtained from this entry and a SIP 
request is sent to the destination. 
The device also supports NAT traversal for the SIP clients located 
behind NAT. In this case, the device must be defined with a global IP 
address. 
  [2] Gateway = (Applicable only to the SBC application.) In scenarios 
where the device receives requests to and from a gateway
