Parameters (Cont’d)

 

 

 

Call IRQ

 

The interval, in seconds, between IRQ messages sent by the Gatekeeper

 

 

Interval

 

to query the status of calls. IRQ messages are sent to all online

 

 

 

 

endpoints registered as dynamic and having ongoing calls in order to

 

 

 

 

verify that the calls are still ongoing. The number you set determines

 

 

 

 

the delay between two IRQ messages to the same endpoint regarding

 

 

 

 

the same call. Choosing the desired delay should take into account the

 

 

 

 

following factors:

 

 

 

 

IRQ messages add to the traffic already present over the network, and

 

 

 

 

the shorter the delay, the more IRQ messages are sent. However, the

 

 

 

 

longer the delay, the longer it takes for the Gatekeeper to detect calls

 

 

 

 

that are stale.

 

 

 

 

The delay parameter relates to the interval between two IRQ messages

 

 

 

 

per one call, so the actual number of the IRQ messages the Gatekeeper

 

 

 

 

creates during this interval should be multiplied by the number of

 

 

 

 

ongoing calls registered dynamically.

 

 

 

 

To disable the IRQ polling, set this value to zero.

 

 

 

 

The effective IRQ interval cannot fall below three times the RAS

 

 

 

 

timeout.

 

 

 

 

IRQ messages will not be sent at a rate exceeding 20 per second.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Default

 

The “distance” (number device-to-device hops that a call must traverse

 

 

Distance

 

between endpoints) allowed for endpoints which are only dynamically

 

 

 

 

registered, such as an endpoint with no predefined values. This

 

 

 

 

distance is compared to the distances of the neighbor gatekeepers and

 

 

 

 

to the multicast distance in order to determine if an LRQ can be sent on

 

 

 

 

behalf of the requesting endpoint.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: The neighboring gatekeeper feature is not supported in the current

 

 

 

 

software version.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Out-of-Zone

 

The “distance” (number device-to-device hops that a call must traverse

 

 

Distance

 

between endpoints) allowed for an out-of-zone endpoint that is making

 

 

 

 

a call through the Gatekeeper. This distance is compared to the

 

 

 

 

distances of the neighbor gatekeepers and to the multicast distance in

 

 

 

 

order to see if an LRQ can be sent on behalf of the requesting endpoint.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: The neighboring gatekeeper feature is not supported in the current

 

 

 

 

software version.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Multicast

 

The “distance” (number device-to-device hops that a call must traverse

 

 

Distance

 

between endpoints) associated with sending an LRQ by multicast.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: The neighboring gatekeeper feature is not supported in the current

 

 

 

 

software version.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

GK-ID

 

The name of the Gatekeeper. The terminals identify the Gatekeeper by

 

 

 

 

this name during the discovery process. The Gatekeeper responds only

 

 

 

 

to Discovery requests that either contain a matching Gatekeeper

 

 

 

 

identifier or have no Gatekeeper identifier.
