Explanation

For Cisco Mobile and Remote Access (MRA) to function, endpoints outside the corporate network must be able to discover the Cisco Expressway-E. This is accomplished via an external DNS SRV record: _collab-edge._tls.<domain> resolved on port 8443 (HTTPS/TLS). Jabber and other MRA-enabled clients query this SRV record to find the Expressway-E address. Port 8443 is used for the HTTPS-based service discovery and signaling bootstrap. The other records (_cisco-uds, _cisco-uds-edge) and port 5061 relate to different services (UDS for directory/user lookup and SIP TLS), but _collab-edge:8443 is the required external DNS entry for MRA.
