About External Registration
Credentials
The VCS may be required to authenticate itself
with another system. For example, when the
VCS is forwarding an invite from an endpoint
to another VCS, that other system may have
authentication enabled and will therefore
require your local VCS to provide it with a
username and password.
Additionally, traversal clients must always
successfully authenticate with traversal
servers before they can connect.
The username and password that your VCS
provides when authenticating with other
systems is congured under the External
Registration Credentials section of the
Authentication Conguration page.
