MultiVOIP Gatekeeper Software Guide 2 Overview

Introduction

The Gatekeeper program interface consists of the following windows and dialog

boxes, which are explained in detail in the following chapters:

• Main window

For monitoring registrations and call transactions. Selecting objects in this window

lets you access windows and dialog boxes for setting policies dealing with endpoints,

current calls, network parameters, services, topology islands, neighbor gatekeepers,

and H.450 transfers. The main window lists Gatekeeper notifications and exceptions

as they occur. Selecting the Resources button displays a report of Gatekeeper

resource availability.

• Memory Configuration dialog box

Displays the maximum number of concurrent calls, and specifies the Gatekeeper

memory configuration values and the network configuration values for the system,

RAS, and Q931.

• Endpoints window

Lists all registered endpoints and their details. From this window you can access

various message windows when the mode for processing registration is manual.

You can also access the Predefined Properties and Online Properties dialog boxes

to monitor the status and properties of the endpoints, and deny or allow services.

• Calls window

Lists all calls currently taking place and their details. From this window you can

access the Call Details dialog box, which supplies detailed information about a call,

and in manual mode, control application replies; the H.450 Transfer Destination

dialog box for starting a Gatekeeper-initiated H.450.2 transfer; the Facility Transfer

dialog box for specifying transport addresses and aliases of the new destination for

transferring the call; and the Send Facility dialog box for editing Facility messages

and sending them to either the source or destination of the call.

• Parameters window

For controlling and monitoring the parameters that affect the general behavior of

the Gatekeeper.

for adding and editing services.
