Setting Up Video Endpoints
Configure a Polycom MGC Video Conferencing Bridge Platform as an H.320 Gateway
This section describes how to configure a Polycom MGC video conferencing bridge platform as an H.320 gateway.
Before performing the procedures in this section, make sure the MGC is already administered and registered to an Avaya Communication Manager system with inbound and outbound trunks correctly configured per the instructions in Configure Polycom MGC Video Conferencing Bridge Platforms with Avaya S8500 and S87xx Server on page 82.
Trunk Groups
If the MGC is set up with outgoing and incoming trunk groups, you must create one incoming trunk group that may map to many signaling groups with one signaling group per IP board. This trunk group is the “incoming and gateway” trunk group.
Set the following parameters for the incoming and gateway trunk group:
●Direction to
●Service Type to tie.
●Disconnect Supervision - In? to y.
●Outgoing Display to y.
●Send Calling Number to y.
●Format to private.
This incoming and gateway trunk group may consist of trunk members associated to many incoming and gateway ARQ+RRQ signaling groups. As result, the outgoing call traffic will spread across all signaling groups and IP boards.
