2 If needed, edit the Network Domain Name or change the Allow Incoming Calls setting. Disabling
the Allow Incoming Calls setting causes the system to reject any calls from this network domain.

Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP)

Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) provides call prioritization over network resources and
far-end system access. Authorized users place precedence calls to elevate the priority of the call through
the AS-SIP network. Systems already in a call can be preempted by an incoming call with a higher priority.
In addition, precedence call signaling and media packets are marked with DSCP values associated with the
precedence level to ensure network QoS commensurate with the call precedence level.
RealPresence Group systems provide support for placing precedence calls through the use of precedence
prefix codes in the dial string. Calls can be placed at any of the precedence levels defined within the network
domain configured as the default domain for outbound calls. The default network domains uc and dsn
define five precedence levels: Routine, Priority, Immediate, Flash, or Flash Override. The system signals
the precedence level according to the standards in UCR 2008, Change 3, and provides appropriate
feedback to the user placing the call.
Incoming calls are announced with the appropriate precedence level, and the authorized user can select
one of the following ways to handle the call:
● Answer directly
● Join into conference
● Hang up current call and answer
