Aliases The aliases that allow you to connect to the endpoint.
The CMA system converts the aliases to the IP address
associated with the endpoint.
• Alias Type. Possible types include E.164, H.323 ID,
URL, Transport Address, E-mail, Party Number, and
Unknown.
• Alias Value. Value for the alias type shown.
Notes
• The following Alias Values are ASCII only: H323 ID,
URL, Transport Address, and Unknown.
• The value for the H.323 ID is the endpoint name if the
endpoint registered with the gatekeeper and it is a
third-party system. In other cases, the endpoint
name is the system name, which might be different
from the H323 ID.
• The value of the E.164 alias is the extension dialed
to reach this endpoint.
ISDN Video
Number
For ISDN endpoints only, the country code + city/area
code + local phone number for the endpoint.
When you add an endpoint without native ISDN, the
ISDN gateway, country code, and area code are not
captured. The CMA system only supports native ISDN.
Capabilities
Supported
Protocols
The communications protocols that the endpoint can
support. Possible values include:
•IP (H.323) - A standard that defines the protocols
used for multimedia communications on
packet-based H.323 networks.
•IP (SIP) - A standard that defines the protocols used
for multimedia communications on SIP networks.
• ISDN (H.320) - A standard that defines the protocols
used for multimedia communications on switched
networks, such as ISDN.
For endpoints with the type Unknown, select H.323.
The endpoint automatically provides the protocols if it
registered successfully or is managed.
Required MCU
Service
The MCU service selected for the endpoint to use.
