Gatekeeper
registration
type
Controls how the MCU
identifies itself when
registering with its
configured gatekeeper.
Cisco recommends that you use the Terminal / gateway option
unless you are using a service prefix (in this case, use Gateway).
Only use a different option if you are:
■ having specific problems
■ using the VCS as a gatekeeper (with or without a service
prefix), in which case use MCU (standard)
■ using the Cisco Gatekeeper (with or without a service prefix),
in which case use Gateway (Cisco GK compatible)
■ using the VCON MXM Gatekeeper (with or without a service
prefix), in which case use MCU (compatible)
Refer to the Knowledge Base in the Support section of the web site
for more details about interoperability with gatekeepers.
Ethernet
port
association
Whether a call involves
consultation with the
configured gatekeeper also
depends on the Port A and
Port B settings. For all
incoming calls, and outgoing
calls dialed by IP address
rather than by E.164 phone
number, the gatekeeper will
be used to validate the
connection only if the
network port over which the
connection is made is
selected here.
The check boxes that are available here depend on which interfaces
are enabled. Check the boxes of the interface(s) and IP version(s)
that you want to be registered to the gatekeeper.
In the case of an incoming call to an address of the form <numeric
ID>@<domain>, the admission query will use just the <numeric ID>
to validate the connection.
(Mandatory)
H.323 ID to
register
Specifies an identifier that
the MCU can use to register
itself with the H.323
gatekeeper.
Before the MCU can register any IDs with the H.323 gatekeeper, it
must make an MCU-wide registration.
This field is required for the gatekeeper registration.
This will have no effect if H.323 gatekeeper usage is disabled.
Use
password
If the configured gatekeeper
required password
authentication from
registrants, select the Use
password check box and
type the password.
Note that where password authentication is used, the (Mandatory)
H.323 ID to register will be used as the username.
