-** IP Address:
+** IP Address:  In general this is a string field that can be populated by a an alphanumeric string representing the domain or the IP of the equipment you're connecting to.
 *** When the Resource Group direction is inbound only or two way: This field should define the IP address of the carrier's SIP server.
 *** When the Resource Group direction is outbound only:  When you want to route outbound calls through the Sky Proxy and do outbound translations, this should point to the outbound proxy.  However, if this Resource Group is being directly terminated to (route type = resource group) and this Resource Group is outbound only then Sky DANCE will try to directly terminate (without using the Sky proxy) to this IP.  Special note on setting transport:  If this IP is of the format  <IP>:<port>;transport=<transport list>  then this will be used to set the port and transport of the outbound call.  This can be used for example to terminate to an external gateway using TCP or TLS - example:  54.164.171.221:5061;transport=tcp   would terminate the call to that IP using tcp.
 *** When the Resource Group is used as a Registration gateway (via the Registration Gateway Type - see below): this field can be left blank or as 0.0.0.0.  Sky DANCE will populate this field when the remote SIP gateway is authenticated.
 ** Netmask: This field defines Netmask which should be used to match the remote SIP gateway IP.
 ** Port:  This field defines the SIP gateway port which should be used for SIP communication between SIP gateway and Sky DANCE.
