Changing the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Gateway SIM Configuration

The Gateway SIM facilitates communication between Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Servers and Cisco Unified MeetingPlace applications such as the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail Gateway. The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Gateway SIM improves the reliability and serviceability of your SMTP E-Mail Gateway by:

Detecting gateway outages and logging these errors to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Alarm Table.

Enabling a Cisco technical support representative to administer and diagnose your SMTP E-Mail Gateway remotely.

The Gateway SIM runs as a service and sends updates to the Gateway SIM Manager on the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server. If the Gateway SIM Manager fails to receive these updates when expected, an alarm is logged in the Alarm Table.

To change parameters in Gateway SIM, do the following procedure.
