Zones and neighbors
configuring the zone's TLS verify mode setting.
If TLS verification is enabled, the neighbor system's FQDN or IP address, as specified in the Peer address
field of the zone's configuration, is used to verify against the certificate holder's name contained within the
X.509 certificate presented by that system. (The name has to be contained in either the Subject Common
Name or the Subject Alternative Name attributes of the certificate.) The certificate itself must also be valid
and signed by a trusted certificate authority.
Note that for traversal server zones, the FQDN or IP address of the connecting traversal client is not
configured, so the required certificate holder's name is specified separately.
If the neighbor system is another VCS, or it is a traversal client / traversal server relationship, the two
systems can be configured to authenticate each other's certificates. This is known as mutual authentication
and in this case each VCS acts both as a client and as a server and therefore you must ensure that each
VCS's certificate is valid both as a client and as a server.
See the
Managing security certificates
section for more information about certificate verification and for
instructions on uploading the VCS's server certificate and uploading a list of trusted certificate authorities.

Configuring a zone for incoming calls only

To configure a zone so that it is never sent an alias search request (for example if you only want to receive
incoming calls from this zone), do not define any search rules that have that zone as its target.
In this scenario, when viewing the zone, you can ignore the warning indicating that search rules have not
been configured.
