Introduction

This chapter describes how to conﬁgure location services in SmartWare.

Location Service conﬁguration task list

The following section describes how to create a new location service and how to enter the conﬁguration mode

of an existing service. Additionally, it describes all commands and sub commands of the location service conﬁg-

uration mode. All conﬁguration tasks for Location Services are listed below:

• Create a Location Service (see page 603)

• Add a domain (see page 603)

• Create an identity (see page 604)

• Create an identity group (see page 613)

• Inherit from an identity group to an identity (see page 613)

Creating a Location Service

The location-service command enters the conﬁguration mode of a location service. If the requested service

does not yet exists, a new one will be created. The no form of the command removes an existing location ser-

vice.

Mode: Conﬁgure

Adding a domain

The domain command speciﬁes the domains that the location service is responsible for. If the application

needs information from the location service, it performs a lookup with the Host Part of the Request-URI or

the From-URI to ﬁnd the right instance. The header selection from which the URI will be taken depends on

the call direction (Outgoing/Incoming SIP-Call) and the requested information. The SIP environment deter-

mines which format the Domain has; it can either be a Domain-Name, a Host-Name or a Host-Address. If all

components of the SIP environment are set up to operate in one speciﬁed domain, Domain is a Domain-

Name. If point-to-point routing is used, Domain is either a Host-Name or a Host-Address. In this case, Host-

Name is a FQDN (Full Qualiﬁed Domain Name).

Domain Examples:

Domain-Name: biloxy.com

Host-Name: sip-ua.biloxy.com or sip-server.biloxy.com

Host-Address: 192.168.10.1 or 10.10.10.1

In case of point-to-point routing, local host-addresses may not be added to the domain list of a location ser-

vice; the own addresses are known by the application. But, if an identity exists in two different location services

Step Command Purpose
