Configure a site
After you click Create Site, the Edit Site page appears. You’ll see that it contains four tabs titled General, Number Plans, Outbound Routes, and Simulate Call. You’ll continue the initial site configuration on the General tab. For details on the settings and features on the other tabs, see the Related tasks section of this article.
- At the top of the General tab, enter a Description.
- If this site is your initial site, then in the site information panel, click Make this Site my default Site.
Note: You can only set one site as the default site. If you are creating more sites, then do not select Make this Site my default Site until you create all the sites you need.

- If you are using WebRTC, you need to select a set of media regions and specify a Relay/TURN Behavior. For more information, see Configure your site for Global Media Fabric.

- In the Caller Name box, enter the name that you want to appear in the caller ID information for outbound calls.
Note: While you can enter Caller ID and Caller Name information here, Genesys Cloud uses the Prioritized Caller Selection feature to specify which caller ID information to use for outbound calls.
