Configuring Advanced Features

Identify the port number to be used.
Identify the actual host for an A query.
SRV query returns two records. The two SRV records point to different hosts and have the same
priority 0. The weight of the second record is higher than the first one, so the second record will
be picked first. The two records also contain a port “5060”, the IP phone uses this port. If the
Target is not a numeric IP address, the IP phone performs an A query. So in this case, the IP
phone uses “server1.yealink.pbx.com" and “server2.yealink.pbx.com" for the A query.
A (Host IP Address)
The IP phone performs an A query for the IP address of each target host name. Example of A
records:
Server1.yealink.pbx.com IN A 192.168.1.13
Server2.yealink.pbx.com IN A 192.168.1.14
The IP phone picks the IP address “192.168.1.14” first.
