Table 1-1lists the major features of the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3500 Gateway.

Table 1-1 Gateway Feature Summary

		Feature	Description
		Interoperability	The gateway provides a high degree of interoperability with other H.323
			compliant gateways, gatekeepers, terminals, proxy, and Multipoint
			Control Unit (MCU) products by being based on the H.320 standard and
			H.323 protocol stack.
		Web-based	The gateway features the gateway interface. This is a web interface used
		management	to configure and monitor the gateway. You can view and modify all
			aspects of the gateway configuration from a remote location using a
			Java-enabled web browser.
		SNMP management	The gateway features Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
			management that supports all aspects of monitoring, diagnostics,
			configuration, and trapping.
		Diagnostics	The gateway features front and rear panel LED indicators that display
			status for the unit. You can also access remote diagnostics of the unit
			through the gateway interface, Telnet, SNMP, or a serial port.
		Network load	The gateway supports load balancing on the network by communicating
		balancing	with a gatekeeper through H.323 RAI (Resource Available
			Indication)/RAC (Resource Available Confirmation) messages.
		T.120 data	The gateway supports data transfers in calls between ISDN and IP by
		collaboration	using high speed T.120 in HMLP and VarMLP formats.
		Quality of service	The gateway features configurable coding of media packets to achieve
		(QoS)	QoS routing priority on the Internet Protocol (IP) network. The Type of
			Service (ToS) bits of the IP datagram header can be configured for priority
			level.
		Dial plan	The gateway supports a simplified dial plan for outbound dialing using a
			single universal prefix. Using the dial plan, the gateway automatically
			detects the capabilities received in the Setup message from the IP endpoint
			and sets the same bit rate for the ISDN (or serial interface) side of the call.
		Direct dialing and call	The gateway dial plan supports the following direct dialing and call
		routing	routing facilities:
			• Direct Inward Dialing (DID)
				• Multiple Subscriber Network (MSN)
