Description

A network region interconnects various parts of a network across multiple geographic areas. Every network region must be associated with a central site. The central site is the data center site on which the call admission control (CAC) bandwidth policy service is running. Use this cmdlet to create a new network region. The parameters of this cmdlet allow you to provide settings that determine whether alternate paths through the Internet are allowed for audio and video connections, and can automatically generate the bypass ID.

Examples

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 1 --------------------------

New-CsNetworkRegion -Identity NorthAmerica -Description "All North American Locations" -CentralSite Redmond-NA-MLS

In this example a new network region named NorthAmerica is created. The region name is specified as the value for the Identity parameter. A value is also specified for the optional Description parameter, describing this region as being composed of "All North American Locations." Finally, the CentralSite parameter receives a value of the name of the central site for this region, Redmond-NA-MLS.

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 2 --------------------------

New-CsNetworkRegion -Identity EMEA -CentralSite Dublin-EU-Site -AudioAlternatePath $False

This example creates a new network region named EMEA that includes settings for an audio alternate path. To do this we call the New-CsNetworkRegion cmdlet, passing an Identity of EMEA. We assign a value for the required parameter CentralSite (in this example the name of the central site for this region is Dublin-EU-Site), and then we specify the AudioAlternatePath parameter, passing it the value $False. Setting AudioAlternatePath to False indicates that if adequate bandwidth is not available, the audio calls will not be routed to an alternate path; instead, they will simply not be completed.

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 3 --------------------------

$a = New-CsNetworkBWAlternatePath -BWPolicyModality "audio" -AlternatePath $False

New-CsNetworkRegion -Identity EMEA -CentralSite Dublin-EU-Site -BWAlternatePaths $a

This example creates the same network region that was created in Example 2. However, in this case we use the BWAlternatePaths parameter to define alternate path settings rather than the AudioAlternatePath parameter. The first line in the example calls the New-CsNetworkBWAlternatePath cmdlet to create a new alternate path. An alternate path has only two properties: BWPolicyModality, which must be set to either audio or video (audio in this example); and AlternatePath, which must be either True or False (False in this example). We assign the output from this cmdlet, a reference to the alternate path object just created, to the variable $a.

In line 2 of this example we use this newly created alternate path when we create a new network region. To do this we call the New-CsNetworkRegion cmdlet, passing an Identity of EMEA. We assign a value for the required parameter CentralSite (in this example the name of the central site for this region is Dublin-EU-Site), and then we specify the BWAlternatePaths parameter, passing it the variable ($a) containing the alternate path object we just created.

Parameters

-AudioAlternatePath

This parameter determines whether audio calls will be routed through an alternate path if adequate bandwidth does not exist in the primary path.

This parameter populates the BWAlternatePaths property. The value supplied to this parameter is stored in the AlternatePath property for the alternate path element with a BWPolicyModality value of Audio.

If you supply a value for this parameter, you cannot specify a value for the BWAlternatePaths parameter.

Default: True. Set this parameter to False only if you need to turn off the offload to the Internet. If any of your calls will be Internet calls, this value must be True, regardless of bandwidth settings.

Type:Boolean
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

-BWAlternatePaths

A list of objects that contain information about whether alternate Internet connection paths are allowed if a media request is unable to complete along the preferred path (for example, if limits on that path have been exceeded). Alternate path objects must be created by calling the New-CsNetworkBWAlternatePath cmdlet.

If you supply a value for this parameter, you cannot supply values for either the AudioAlternatePath or VideoAlternatePath parameters.

Alternate paths for audio and video are enabled (AlternatePath = True) by default.

Type:PSListModifier
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

-BypassID

A globally unique identifier (GUID). This GUID is used to map network regions to media bypass settings within a CAC or Enhanced 9-1-1 (E9-1-1) network configuration. (Use this BypassID value in the call to the New-CsNetworkMediaBypassConfiguration cmdlet.)

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, a value will be automatically generated. If you do specify a value, it must be in the format of a GUID (for example, 3b24a047-dce6-48b2-9f20-9fbff17ed62a). Auto-generation is recommended. If you supply a value for this parameter, you'll receive a confirmation prompt asking if you really want to supply this value rather than allow it to be auto-generated.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

-CentralSite

The central site running the bandwidth policy service. This service must be enabled in order to use CAC. This service runs on the Front End Server or the Standard Edition server.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

-Description

A string that describes the region. This parameter can be used to provide a more descriptive explanation of what the region is for than can be expressed by the Identity alone.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

-InMemory

Creates an object reference without actually committing the object as a permanent change. If you assign the output of this cmdlet called with this parameter to a variable, you can make changes to the properties of the object reference and then commit those changes by calling this cmdlet's matching Set-<cmdlet>.

-NetworkRegionID

This value is the same as the Identity. You cannot specify both an Identity and a NetworkRegionID; a value entered for one will be automatically used for both.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Lync Server 2010, Lync Server 2013, Skype for Business Server 2015, Skype for Business Server 2019

-VideoAlternatePath

This parameter determines whether video calls will be routed through an alternate path if adequate bandwidth does not exist in the primary path.

This parameter populates the BWAlternatePaths property. The value supplied to this parameter is stored in the AlternatePath property for the alternate path element with a BWPolicyModality value of Video.

If you supply a value for this parameter you cannot specify a value for the BWAlternatePaths parameter.

Default: True. Set this parameter to False only if you need to turn off the offload to the Internet. If any of your calls will be Internet calls, this value must be True, regardless of bandwidth settings.
