# AnswerSystem

The name of the answer system on the remote Answer Server that this answer system refers to.

When you configure a remote answer system, Answer Server forwards any Ask actions that use the remote system to the associated remote Answer Server. When you specify a remote system directly in your Ask action, Answer Server uses the value of `AnswerSystem` to route the action.

You must also configure the host and port of the remote Answer Server, either by setting AnswerServerACIPort and AnswerServerHost in the system configuration, or by setting AnswerServer to the name of a configuration section that defines the host and port (see Remote Answer Server Configuration Parameters)
