FQDN Configuration Source
You can select where to get the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the gateway. The Mediatrix 4100
uses the FQDN to register to the MGCP/NCS call agent.
 To select the FQDN configuration source:
1. In the ipAddressConfig folder, locate the localHostFqdnSelectConfigSource variable (under the
ipAdressConfigLocalHost group).
This variable indicates the source to be used for the provisioning of the Mediatrix 4100 FQDN
information.
The default value is none.
You can see the source used during the last restart sequence in the read-only variable
localHostFqdnConfigSource (ipAddressStatusLocalHost group).
You can see the FQDN value assigned to the Mediatrix 4100 in the read-only variable
localHostFqdn (ipAddressStatus LocalHost group).
2. Restart the Mediatrix 4100 so that the changes may take effect.

Source Comment
static Set the localHostStaticFqdn variable in the ipAddressConfigLocalHostStatic
group.
dhcp The DHCP-provided “host name” (option number 12) is used. No site specific
code is provided. The Mediatrix 4100 takes the FQDN in the DHCP offer.
dns The FQDN is set with the name associated to the host IP address. This DNS may
be provided by the DHCP server or taken from the localHostStaticPrimaryDns or
localHostStaticSecondaryDns variables.
none The FQDN is blank. In this case, the domain name is replaced by an IPv4 address
in dotted decimals represented as a text string inserted within angle brackets,
e.g., [128.96.41.1]. This domain name is used to register the unit to the call agent.
