2 If needed, edit the Network Domain Name or change the Allow Incoming Calls setting. Disabling 
the Allow Incoming Calls setting causes the system to reject any calls from this network domain.
3 Select a Precedence Level.
You can define a total of 10 precedence levels.
4 Configure these settings.
5 Click Save.
To add a network domain, click   and then configure the same settings defined above for the new network 
domain. Click Save when you are finished. 
Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP)
Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) provides call prioritization over network resources and 
far-end system access. Authorized users place precedence calls to elevate the priority of the call through 
the AS-SIP network. Systems already in a call can be preempted by an incoming call with a higher priority. 
In addition, precedence call signaling and media packets are marked with DSCP values associated with the 
precedence level to ensure network QoS commensurate with the call precedence level.
RealPresence Group systems provide support for placing precedence calls through the use of precedence 
prefix codes in the dial string. Calls can be placed at any of the precedence levels defined within the network 
domain configured as the default domain for outbound calls. The default network domains uc and dsn 
define five precedence levels: Routine, Priority, Immediate, Flash, or Flash Override. The system signals 
the precedence level according to the standards in UCR 2008, Change 3, and provides appropriate 
feedback to the user placing the call.
Incoming calls are announced with the appropriate precedence level, and the authorized user can select 
one of the following ways to handle the call:
● Answer directly
● Join into conference
● Hang up current call and answer

Dial Digit A single numeric field (0-9) that represents the dialing digit used to indicate the requested

The precedence dial string is indicated by a leading '9' followed by the Dial Digit, followed by 
the 7- or 10-digit number. 
Resource Priority 
Header
Represents the value in the SIP Resource Priority Header used to signal the precedence 
level. This field accepts a single UTF-8 character.
Audio DSCP Indicates the DSCP value used for audio RTP/SRTP packets sent in calls using this 
precedence level. The field accepts an integer value range from 0-63.
Video DSCP Indicates the DSCP value used for video RTP/SRTP packets sent in calls using this 
precedence level. The field accepts an integer value range from 0-63.
